Off Ice Driving in Sweden for 4 days at the beginning of Feb! Can't wait!

its been really warm here in the fall the ice is only starting to get thick enough here for lake ice driving. but we'll be out in late January and February for sure.

ice driving really teaches soft hands, and precision petal control, and is a huge amount of fun.

i love this picture because you can see how soft my hands are on the wheel. im powersliding at about 50 mph here, on ice, so gentle is the name of the game:

I mean, I'm not a serious fisherman, but this still seems like cheating.

6 boxes of Christmas stuff came from my inlaws yesterday (we shipped it all back after the holidays). Like Christmas day for the kids all over again.

Now to find room for it all.

vasectomies .... thoughts?

context: dont want kids now, older i get the more firmly i seem to be deciding that. adoption is always a possibility and i would freeze some semen locally here as a "just in case" but frankly, i think after a year or two, that might go in the trash too.

never get food poisoning.

i didn't know there was that much .... stuff ... in my body.

[Pump Scout]

Agreed. Never have I ever barfed as much or as long as I have with food poisoning. No flu or night of idiotic competitive drinking can match it.

[ironyusa]

Lol, I got something like that from Chipotle about 3 years ago. 2 days of laying on the floor...

You can't seriously be telling us that you didn't know you were full of shit?

Talking of insulting people. Ricky Gervais did a masterful job at the Golden Globes.
