Went down to watch a couple grandsons play football yesterday. The
oldest
wanted to see if his feet reach the footpegs yet. That's been the
criteria
for his first ride. Well, now they reach, so all he needs is some
proper
clothing and he's good to go!

SAY WHAT!
Maybe some lessons on how to handle the bike would be nice.
JustWait has a training program going. Includes obscene gestures for
anyone
under 10.
Who is the 80-year-old old fart on the front of that bike? If that is
herring, he surely has aged a lot - and badly - since I last saw him.
He for being well into his 60's I'd say he'd doing pretty good.

and I really don't know, but i would imagine that if he wanted he
could "drop and give 30" fairly easily.
Probably not. I hate pushups. My arms are long, which makes them harder
to
do. I could never do one pullup, which kept me out of Airborne school.
Most
arm spans are within an inch of a person's height. My arm span is five
inches longer than my height. Makes buying long sleeved shirts a bitch.

Pfffff..I could do over 70 real strict pushups.
Once in community college, a group of classmates bet me I couldn't do
one handed pushups... I was on number 15 when one of the guys jumped on
my back. I collected of course. I also liked doing headstand pushups,
although I usually needed a wall or something to keep my balance.


I would imagine you, Harry, and Jimmie could do more pushups than all the
other folks here combined. Or at least *say* you could.



I don't have to imagine where you bend over, Herring...in the showers at
the golf club. How many bars of soap do you pick up each day?


....and when he keeps throwing his own soap down.................
I guess that's why he enjoys 'golf' so much.
