Well I'm only 15 so my opinion of older might be different than yours. I meant this topic for you guys who are into your getting into your 40's and beyond.

dont listen to the old farts, they cant ski anymore, there just in dinial. I say you got only a few good years left, then the next 10 years of your life youll be stuck skiing groomers at okemo. Then after that youll just drink bear and talk on internet forums about your prior glory


ooooooooooooooooh.....
That hurt...
Getting a little surely so close to the end of summer?

I know. It's just good natured trash talk. I thought what you wrote was great. Keep it up.

BTW: just between u and me alful, I'm pretty sure that DMC and JimmyG are your typical Hunta Mt. posers. :wink:

I think a lot of it is connected to genetics. Take a look at your biological parents and it will give you a good idea about the path you're heading down. Of course you can improve things with excercise, diet, etc. But the framework is in your genes.

Thankfully I'm a female clone of my dad, who can only be described as a spastic little 78 yr old Chihuahua. The guy has to be the original inspiration for the energizer bunny. I'm the same way. Very hyper-energetic, rarely get sick, endurance to a fault.

The down side is we are both very jittery and over-reactive and can tend to overwhelm people with our activity/anxiety. But hey, nobody's poifect!

Huh? Sorry, trying to wake up here; you know us old farts, no good for anything until we've had our coffee and Geritol.

HPD is right, dmc and I spend most of the day at the bar. He knows because he's there with us :beer: .

I see you're getting those wrists ready for a few rounds, eh, HPD :lol: ?

see, it ain't no fair to compare...We blow 50% of our energy booting up 3 three little kids...I make sure they carry all their own gear...but the energy expended taking xare of everybody, THEN hitting the hills...well all I can say is...

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH

I get to go tree skiing, at 3:30, cause the kids are dropping stuff from the lift.

I almost drowned in a jacuzzi because I worked so damn hard. Never had to work that hard...ever...ok, it was because I reaching for a margarita and fell in head foist.
