At some age things done in the past start catching up and then we are forced to live the results.

Results of being young and invincible.

I was nicknamed Tarzan because there was nothing that I wouldn't climb. Nothing that I had fear for. I've been shot, stabbed, Kicked, and punched. That was my world.

Then my life took a turn which resulted in two brain injuries back to back (4 years apart). This was because of course I was living up to the tarzan image.

Life metamorphisized into what I am today, The nametag on my leather now reads Scar. Scar because of what Tarzan did too me.

Because of the person that I was in my youth, and because I feared absolutley nothing I am now living the results, and it's growing darker by the day.

Venting and wondering and thinking and learning

Take care of yourself while you're still young friend so this doesn't bite you too hard when you're older

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely,
in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming....WOW!!! -WHAT A RIDE!!!!
What a Ride!!!!!thumbs up thumbs up

Mike, I will be 65 in January..I still walk 5-8 miles a day..Split all my own firewood, I still box with kids in the gym..I still spend 2-4 days in the woods, with short rations..

I can out lift most men half my age, and whenever a friend is moving, I am the first to get the call..I haven't slowed down one iota...Bob...rolling on the floor laughing

I have that, infact just saw this saying the other day on my myspace.


I love my scars & my past. I know when I wear my swim suit I get alot of looks,(not from my gorgeous bod,LOL!)from all of my long scars & lots of questions asked. I think scars are permanate reminders of everything we've been through to make who we are today.
