Just realized - I live a dangerous life

“took care of some stuff today. While driving I realized, damn I live a dangerous life.

I hike and I backpack (not even going to mention all the other things I do or used to do)

I drove more then 20,000 miles since last december

I listen to my music way to loud while driving and I sing and I yell or blow kisses at people out of the car.

I get the urge to just hit the pedals to the metal once in a while (working on it, working on it)

I drink once in a while(don't drink and drive though)

I meet strangers in the woods to backpack. (now that's just plain nuts)

#&%!$, I eat sushi a lot. think about it, raw fish.

i sometimes sleep with the windows open.
damn, sometimes I even forget to lock my door.


If my momma would know all this she wouldn't be able to sleep at night.”

“Those seat covers are out there too!”

“Oh Momma, whatchew gonna do?

Don't forget, Queen Of The #&%!$in' Universe, that must be pretty dangerous, too.”

“Not der Autobahn!!!!!
Not der Autobahn!!!!!
Not der Autobahn!!!!!
Not der Autobahn!!!!!
Not der Autobahn!!!!!

Got it?”

“lol, you know i do a lot of those same things (except the part about blowing kisses)

my co workers think i'm partly insane (they are probably right), but oh well.

You only live once!”

“Sushi is good for your, uh.......drive(ing)”

“I blow kisses to A-holes on the road ever since I gave up giving them the finger.

The object of the game is to piss them off and give 'em a big smile and blow 'em a kiss.

Good anger management”

“Gem, its good to live a full life, isnt it? I like to live on the wild side a little too. Great minds think alike.”

“my coworkers ae sure i am insane...gem add to that list: for me:

Own poisonous animals for pets (scorpiosn and tarantulas)

like to eat things out of the woods

like to tease rattlesnakes

am marrying "crazy mike backpacks"

“life just seems dangerous in general when you think about it! it seems pretty miraculous that we aren't dropping like flies. although maybe flies feel like they live for aeons, who knows.”

“i hope to soon add rock climbing to my list of hobbies too btw.”

“lol yupp it's fun to live a live a full life. You aren't kidding. :)

Y2: I forgot about my seatcovers, but you do have to admit they are so ugly that they are cute.

my sticker didn't not get me in any trouble YET.

Oh boy..it's all good.”

“I, however, am COMPLETELY normal.

Right, guys?”

“Seat covers?

Are they furry?

I should remember this.
I went for a wild ride with this dangerous woman!”

“Deez thread iz kaput!!”

“heeheehee, they are furry and...get this.... PINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
real ugly.


I am kaput, no kidding there. really really kaput.


geo, "die autobahn" is really a very cool thing. when I got my license, damn, I was one of the best drivers on the school on der autobahn. LOL #&%!$ing germans are nuts.

“livin on the edge! me too. it's fun though. just gotta be careful how far you take it.”

“When you live on the edge SF. Not knowing were the is, is the fun part.”

“Don't forget...

you breathe in air
you drink water
you eat food

it's a wonder any of us are still alive after doing all of the above... :-p

I know a great way to curb (not eliminate) having the need to put the pedal to the metal.... get 2 tickets on the same day by the same cop (fresh out of "cop college")... AND then have your insurance rates DOUBLE overnight.... I about fell over when I got my bill-- then when I called, I explained that the young cop wrote me up for 2 tickets in 1 traffic stop... (that was definitely a lousy day!) Thankfully, my insurance recognized what had happened and only raised my rates by 150% and not 200% (like that was any better!).... worked for a while... then about 2-3 yrs down the road, I got another freaking ticket.... :-(”

ignore this user

LOL!”

“#&%!$, and last but not least...I post on a open internet board that I sometimes forget to lock my door. let me go find my gun and put it under the pillow.”

“I live and drive (35,000 miles/year) in Los Angeles, sometime through the neighborhoods (or should I just say "hoods") that burned in the 1992 riots.”

“Dangerous life, never, I just got finished with fire fighter training. I work in a polyureathane plant. Putting out a 20 foot hydrocarbon fire with a handheld fire extinguisher is nuts. Never ever try that at home without bunker gear and training. Run away hoses bring new meaning to jumping rope and water cannons are just plain cool.”

“One day, you'll kick back and realize that these are the best years of your life, and will smile as you look back over all the fun you had.

Wouldn't be sad to grow old, and not do all the things you wished for?”

“you nailed it TD!

one of my main goals in life is to NOT wind up in the rocking chair thinking to myself, Man, I wish I'd gone and __________ (insert cool thing here).”

“towndawg, glad you see the humor in this. Of course you're right. This thread wasn't ment to be a serious one.

I already sit back and think about the crazy things I have done when I was younger, climbing down a balcony, hitchhiking, my first car accident (I was just an idot, no other words for that), my sled rides down devils path when I was little. (that's what they called that little hill. awhhhh really scarry i tell ya) lol

“heehee.. ;) I find myself in the same shape emotionally. Why go through life, never doing all the stuff that sounded pretty cool. Why, because you might die?? You are going to die anyway. Why, because you might die prematurely? How about a living death, 8-5:30, and not having another thing on your resume of life -- except that you were a good employee, and good friend, blah blah.

Good morning Roam Around, and certainly good morning Gemini -- you always brighten my day.”

“Yeah, it's all about the creating the memories now that you want to have when you are at the end of your life.”

“gemini: "my first car accident.."

LOL.... I hurr you on dat. My freakin first!.. knowing there are several car accidents in the history of Gem-Drive. I have a fairly interesting line-up of car accidents too. My favorite was the one that I managed to miss the brake pedal with my foot.”

“heehee Towndawg, actually my first and my last. I have never crashed another car again. (oh gawd...let me knock on wood real quick)

but that one was really stupid. trying to make it home in 13 minutes instead of 14. Stupid, I am telling you. Flipped the car over 2 times one way, and one time another way. I was lucky as heck back then.

I crawled out of the window and searched for my purse. someone stopped and drove me to the hospital. I had a couple scratched, a tinny piece of meet missing on my back and some rips...hmm...what's the word? (not broken).

when I was able to leave the hospital about 3 days later we checked the car. the complete car top was way down pushed into the seats. Everyone sitting with me in that car would be dead. Strange...it wasn't on the drivers side though. I wasn't wearing seatbelts back then, and when my car got totally out of control I remember thinking "i'm gonna die...that's it. it's been nice" Never had my life flash in front of me though. :)

I was so lucky. I still think I had an guarding angel back then. There is no other explaination. Lesson learned back then? Shoot...nope. I was young though.”

“My first accident was in 1972.
I look my eyes off the road to check out a nice keister and rear-ended an old lady.

Gemini drives a Mitsubishi.
I'll bet she could handle a Messerschmitt.”

“I've wrecked six or seven, not sure -- almost everytime totalled. My driving seems to be connected to the part of the universe that harbors random acts of bizzarity.”

“Note to self. Never ride with TD. lol”

“hey now.. I can name you TT'er would have rode with me and survived!

;)

Let's see now.. Currahee rode with me. so there, he's still alive! Smokygirl has ridden with me, and Stix too. Hurumph! I'll have you know...

“My half of the family freaks out every time I go to stay at a "Developed" campground in the Smokies, I.E., Elkmont or Cades Cove. I'm only a risky driver when pregnant; something about that hormone shift makes me think I'm a rally driver. Have Subaru, will drive it. Not a good combo there. I try not to mess with poisonous critters, really. I try to be a safe driver, but in this town, it's impossible. I have several drug dealers in my neighborhood, and even more drug users. I figure they'll go away soon, because of escalating property values around here. There's a development of houses going in less than a mile from me, about the same size house as ours (1400 sf) and they start at $200 k. Insane. Hey, here's another thing I do: I live in Florida! Hurricanes, woo hoo!”

“nice keister. LOL.. somehow.. checking out a nice keister, and then REAR ending a woman... sounds kinda twisted, yet connected. Freudian slip?

LOL.. hey Gemini, what does "keister" mean, anyway??”

“keis·ter ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kstr)
n. Slang
The buttocks.
The anus.

The young'un had a nicer butt than the old lady!
The front of my Corvair folded like an accordian.
That's probably why the old lady was unhurt.

I've rolled a couple.....thank goodness for seatbelts.”

“I was asking Gemini.. wondered what the original Germanic was.

;)

I have a weakness for a nice butt too. Ask tarabull! lol.. lol..”

“Whut!!

Did you engage in a bit of grabass with Tara?”

“lol.. I've always told Tara she had a nice ass.”

“I gotta admit that I did not mind following Tara on snowshoes.”

“

I wish I could find the picture I'm thinking about, but this one will do for now.”

“ahh.. found it.

”

“ButtocksPaLooza !!!!!”

“gosh guys. does tara know you posting this? LOL

keister? I have never heard such a word. It isn't German, I am sure.”

“Gemini: hehe.. were we supposed to ask? I thought once it was on webshots, it was fair game!

I did think that Keister was a derrivation (LOL.. no pun intended!) of some german slang tho!”

“hmm, I really don't know then TD. I have never heard it.”

“hey tarabull has my boots :)”

“Well if you have not heard of it Gaby.. I'm sure it doesn't exist in the German venacular then! So did you want equal time? We can advertise a few of your uMm.. better pictures, if you'd like?”

“hold on!! Nope...no pics of me, okay? pleazzzz”
