  1. Mike - If you don't mind, send me your email address when you have a moment. I saved an article in Word format that you will find of interest and I can forward same to you.

    -The Old Wise One

  2. New York in a couple of days, eh? That's only a 3 hr. drive away from me. Scary thought. The Atlantic is a much better buffer. Ha - enjoy your stay in N.Y.

  3. Sounds suspiciously like my fellow commuters.
  4. A: If you wish to exchange email addresses for the occasional lengthier conversations let me know.

  5. ABBA? ABBA!! My fellow Borges enthusiast quotes ABBA? Oh, the humanity...

  6. One-legged or otherwise I hope you are 'managing' as best you can, Steph.

  7. Thank you for the P.H./You Tube link. I would have never thought to look there (duh). In the interim I've ordered 2 of their CD's through the State library system and should have them within the week. I remember playing their first album until it wore out, but simply had not thought of them in years (double duh). Again, thanks for 'reminding' me.

  8. Saw your post today, and I'm sorry for your loss.

  9. Welcome to the forum. You'll find us a varied lot of young and old cranks, some of whom are terribly opinionated.

  10. Your comments in the "Fear" thread about not being around to watch your children grow & to protect them is probably the single biggest fear of all parents. You stated what many of us think. My son is 24 and his safe & happy future is still my primary concern. Be good, be safe, friend.

  11. AleHop: You are a good man to have mediated the recent friction between "JHS" and "Quiet One". Hats off to you, sir.

  12. I too enjoy hard cider although I can't for the life of me figure out why more people don't try it. Cheers, and cheers again!

  13. Stephy - Hope you're doing well as winter slowly marches on. I'm eager for the season to start - a month & a half away - and to get past the seemingless endless talk generated in the media over every bit of minutia they can latch on to. Take care, be strong and stick to your guns.

  14. Hello there, Puma. Is this a typical off-season at the forum? My goodness, some of the members certainly do like sniping at each other over the silliest, non-racing topics. Sometimes I feel like I'm back in high school. Oh well, another month & a half and we'll be back on the grid. Dunlop rubber, indeed!

  15. Just when our new member thought it was safe, the tiger shark takes a bite.
  16. Welcome. As stated by the more experienced members, the ritual hazing will begin shortly and continue until you've either been chased away or stood up to them. Remember: what doesn't kill you will make you stronger. Just keep telling yourself that it's their curious way of saying "We love you."
  17. Stephy: Yes, one of the few consolations of being old I suppose -:) After the deaths of drivers such as Clark, Bandini, Rodrigues, Siffert, Villeneuve, I stopped following racing for years. When I came back to it c. 1990 it seemed "safe" once again. And then Senna died and the pain returned. But I stay with it because so much of everything else is bullsh!t. But you know that, f...

  18. Thanks to your inspiration I have begun reading "Other Inquisitions" by J.L.B.

  19. Eric: You've provided some excellent - and entertaining - posts lately, helping to break up the tedium of the off-season. Enjoy the rest of your vacation and Happy New Year... and keep the posts coming along hard and fast.

  20. I see you are quickly 'making time' with our new young female member. You are a disgusting and dirty old man and I hate you for getting there first. But, hey, have a great New Year's anyway! (wink, wink)

  21. Stephy - A few days early but I wanted to wish you a Happy New Year. All around me I saw 2009 filled with job loss, illness and general sadness. Here's hoping 2010 is a big improvement for everyone. Cheers!

  22. Have a great time in England and, although I'm a couple of days early, have a happy new year.

  23. Priscilla - Good to see you back on the forum. "24 days to go": Do I assume that means 24 days of school left before summer break?
