Rule #1
Never try to keep up with your cousin who's already skied 87 days this
season. I did something a little crazy yesterday: I set my alarm for 4:00am, got up and drove up to Big White to get at least one day this year with my cousin, who has very happily "retired" for a couple of years and his snow-hosting there. Great day. Blue skies, sunshine, cold and dry enough in the morning for the fresh snow to still be fresh and then an afternoon of high-speed cruising, but... ....man does Keith have legs on him. I give thanks for the one guy we had to add to the group at 1:30 so that Keith could do his snow-hosting thing, because it slowed the pace for the afternoon. Without him, my legs would have fallen off. Then Coronas and a hot tub. An excellent way to spend a Saturday. :-) -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia http://gallery.me.com/alangbaker/100008/DSCF0162/web.jpg |

In fact mighty warriors didn't even have plumbing. My minions did the plumbing. I gave the orders, and used my magic plastic card to pay for everything. I'm teaching leadership here, and a leader takes charge of a project. And a leader pays his own way, he doesn't ask for, "freebies." But he does plunder the ATM at the refueling station. Don't **** me off or my minions will find where you live. And vote for Palin-Ahhnold in 2012. A mighty Hungarian warrior The blood of Attila runs through me |

A dumb **** almost caused a concussion for me skiing erratically with his fat boy skis. I was so busy trying figure out what he was doing that I lost track of what I was doing so that my right ski plowed into a mini-mogul and popped off sending me head first into semi-hard pack. |

Rule number one is to avoid responding to the petty jibes of "truly gifted troublemakers" Rule number two is the adult diaper. Could someone is Jackson Hole please duct tape one over Jeff's head until he gets a goddamned clue what life is about? |

You're thinking about Rule #2, which is "Never whine about how it's somebody else's fault when you **** up." You are welcome. //Walt |
