In Reply to: O/T sort of. How fast have you drove posted by old on December 03, 2008 at 21:05:25:

Old, I have delt with you, and read many of your posts and truly enjoy all of them. That being said, I kinda relate this question to tavern talk as to how many beers I drank last Friday before we drank the wiskey, not to mention the wine etc. You know how smart I am? Give me a twelve pack, I will drink it, and then I will tell you just how smart I am.

Don't get me wrong, I was a teenager once myself, and almost killed myself trying to teach everyone how smart and fast I could drive...but I,m on the flip side now digging kids out of their avoidable dare devil escapades. As often the lucky ones died, the less fortunate can now blink their eyes to show they understand they made a mistake. By the way, when they blink their eyes real fast and look at the hospital plug, they are trying to tell you to please pull the plug for them as they can't do it themselves.

Most of the folks from our area has heard of a 17-18 year old gal from Elkader Iowa that was enjoying Senior skip day with her classmates. She is the one that has been to Sweden for their miricle cure, and she does have some tingeling in her legs now after the treatment. I was the one who tried to tell her to calm her in the back of the Ambulance when she screamed she could not feel her legs. Probably it could be just a result from the sweling.


So therefore I won't coment how stupid I am, or was at a younger age. Every now and then when I get a old age pain (no pun intended) I wonder if it is a result of one of the twisted up chunks of fast moving steel that I crawled away from in my younger days.

I mean no disrespect with my coments old, just a cridical point of view from a lucky old pain riden man. (no pun intended again)

For the fast ones, I wonder of your feelings when your child quotes of a faster speed than yours, or perhaps a grandchild making claim of such escapades?

You probably know by now the one about...My Grandfather died peacfuly in his sleep. Unlike the rest of the folks in his car screaming at the top of their lungs.

Sorry for the rudness, my sons step sister age 21 was indeed screaming ten munites before and up to till the time of her death. Please stop and let me out, I'm scared. Some of the skid marks are still there from the estamated 120 mph accident on the 25 mph street in Prarie Du Chine Wisc. That was 10 years ago, and ruts in the blacktop go in the direction of the small tree and utility pole that stoped the speeding car. Three survived including the driver that suided the State of Wisc. for a inperfection in the street. The victum did not attend her own funeral as she had to be examined for the cause of death instead (a last munite decision from the State of Wisconson) Ten years and it's still hard to type with tears in my eyes.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th ... [Read Article]
