We did that a couple weeks ago while hauling a quad around the yard with another quad. I was the trailer...
Buddy floors it around the corner, down the straight and hammers on the brakes. I panic and brake myself end up about 1 foot from his back bumper - thank god my brakes work. And then he floors it again, slack dissapears in less then a second and he stops while I surge forwards. He almost ate "poo poo" over the handlebars when his quad stopped.

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

A Beatle's fan????scan wrote:Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in second flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream...

It is, after all, off the greatest album of all time.

Re: A day in the life
I was away for a few days. I would have commented right away. I suspect there are a lot of much younger folks here who have never heard that song.scan wrote:Yes indeed. It felt like that took too long to be noticed.blues2cruise wrote:A Beatle's fan????scan wrote:Woke up, fell out of bed

Anyways, I'll bet my parents wore the needles out on their record player listening to that album.
I know I listened to the cassette tape until it broke.

It doesn't count for today, but I was too tired last night to post. Anyway...
Yesterday I completed a Ropes Rescue training course with my fire department. It was amazing!! We did the training course in two separate days (8 hours each day), and now that I'm on the Ropes Rescue team, I'll be out in the woods practicing with them once each month.
I did ride my motorcycle to and from the training site, so that was fun too!
Cheers,
Loonette
