I scored 69

I think it is acceptable to say that I turned down a promotion after I graduated college, by leaving a few higher paying job opportunities and moving to the canadian boarder deciding to ski whenever and not use my degree. I also usually have had a season pass, so buying tix doesn't really apply to me.

I am an f'n skier, word born.

Ironically I scored 69 myself. Ski bummin it

27.5 ow. To concerned about keeping a good job to skip work or blow off school. I always got a job at the mountain to not have to pay to ski anyway.

Flawed should be one ot two more more question.A) did you marry your wife because she was a skier and thats how you met.
.B)Does she pay the bill for your passion of skiing.:lol:

A fun poll. I know I'm way to uptight. Just envious of those free spirits.:beer:

Does it count if I tried to sell my body for gas money but didn't have any customers?





I had one offer but I didn't accept. I'm pretty sure that dude was cousins with that guy from Dilverance.

Give yourself 100 if you don't take the quiz because you're too busy skiing/riding.

:lol:

Good one!

21.5 here, guess I'm lame... :roll:

 

[loafer89]

I scored a 33


How many extra points do I get for skiing while my wife was in labor?? and continued to ski after I found this out. I have the lift ticket to prove it.

That should be worth at least 20

 

[teachski]

Definately flawed! I lost a lot of points because I never even considered doing some of the things listed because I was too busy skiing! For example: Leaving a party, and divorcing a spouse. How the heck could I divorce a spouse, I have been too busy skiing to look for one seriously!

 

[Marc]

I scored a 3.5.




This is an issue because I don't golf either.

 

[sledhaulingmedic]

I think I scored 4.

Remember, a bad day of skiing beats a great day of golf.

Yeah, but so does a root canal...

12.5... but I've only been skiing for 4 years.. I'm now out of school and have a boss that gives me powder days off...with the All For 1 pass I don't need lift tickets... although I do limit my other activities such as parties and outings during the winter months... don't want to compromise the quality of my skiing!

Scary I got the same score as Bob. I agree with adding Bob's questions to the poll.

I could do much better if i can count the points for question each time I did them. I can think of at least 5 girls in which i dated and ended the relationship just before ski season started because they didn't ski well enough to keep up. As well as the number of times I've called in sick to school and work.
