Yeah. All that bull**** about real names and pictures of what you look
like........All of which he has of me.

"Pathetic blowhard" is the understatement of the year.

And how does this "free skiing" thing work when "ol' trunky" here is
_buying_ tickets on ebay? Pathetic blowhard and proven liar.....too
funny.

You want to know how nice the folks at Alpine are? When I found out

Alpine, I talked to them and they refunded the money for my spring pass!

I've looked at the (amazingly low) pass prices, and worked out how many
days I'd have to ski to make each one pay. The midweek pass looks
really tempting. My goal next year is at least 20 days on the
mountains. It makes me smile just thinking and typing that

Hell, go for 80 and be delighted with 40. Don't limit yourself
so much.



Well I didn't say I was going to STOP at 20, I just want to get at least
that much. I'm okay with a lot more


All I'm saying is that your "goal" might be limiting.

You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table.
There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealin’s done.

Someone told me one mark of a serious skier is one who skis his/her age each
season.

Does that mean that the kids at Killington Mountain School
are really 150 years old?

Exactly !!!! I can't afford to go as much as I do but I put in on the credit
card and figure I have all summer to pay it off . No way i'm letting a
little thing like money stop me from skiing !

Ron,
Ping me in December (or whenever) you are coming to Killington
and we'll take a few turns together. I'll send you contact
information at that time.

That would mean that I was over 100 from my mid 20's through my mid
40's. Would that make me over 2000 years old? I feel like it today.
Lot's of Heiniken and coffee shops last night.

Hmmmmm. This is only possible if Pigo is actually a dog. There are
7*365 == 2555 days in a dog year, right? Ok, it's still pretty
impressive.

Anyway, time to update that old RSA players card again...
