I use to think, but not anymore

Good ..I have been waiting and I have a few things to discuss with you. I will leave the hammer and nails at home for now ...

I hear Marc is into that sort of thing...

Drills and drywalls screw, Steve. But you were close.

I used to think, wearing a helmet, was something only racers did, then I took a spill and smacked the back of my head, hard enough to wake me up. It's a sad sad day when you realise you are mortal.
Some days, I revert to my old ways and go with out for a run or two just to feel that sense of indestructibility that was the nexus of my youth.

I used to think "Hot Dog" was about the greatest movie ever made.

I used to think I was fast. Then I watched pros and Olympians free-ski....
(in-person, not on the tele)

"I use to think, but not anymore."

Yep.

I don't have any...my Parents weren't very into winter
or, tennis, or golf, or baseball, or football, or ice hockey...you get the idea

Now, I do all of that stuff with my family

Same here. My parents still don't do anything. But we won't be like that with our children.

Although I can say "I used to think" because I never really did much thinking in general. Hence the drool strains on all my shirts.

That explains a lot....

For a short period I believed rear-entry boots were cool.

When I first started skiing (at 26 yo, so only 4 years ago!) the rentals I had to use were rear-entry and I thought they were the greatest thing ever. I only wanted rear-entry boots and was disappointed that I couldn't buy any. Thankfully, my views have changed on that.

I used to think skiing was for rich folks. Now I'm all grown up, not at all rich, and I ski quite a lot!

I hear you on that!

Of course I used to think I was God, being a full cert PSIA member and all but then with my dyslexia I am now trying to figure out if it's God or Dog

PSIA = Probably Stay Inside Anyways

Sorry, just had to mention it. Old ski patrollers like to needle instructors.

I used to think skiing in the rain was kind of fun, since the crowds were light and the snow was soft.

Now, not being a kid anymore and having to pay for tickets and not having much time to ski, skiing in the rain is a bummer. But, I still do it if I have to.

Not true, I have never heard either of those. The second is hillarious. I took both exams in stretch pants.

I thought I would own my own ski area.

I used to think.......a beautiful women who could really rip was about the sexiest thing I could imagine.

Ah, cancel that - I still think that's true. Sorry for the confusion.
