I really feel sorry for folks like that.
Then I sit back and remember when I was young, dumb and full of my own self. :-) I never thought about getting hurt much less dying.
We used to get feeling good and go to the dam and ride the zip line across the damn in a tool bucket.
Used to dive off the cliffs into the rock quarry filled with water knowing full well there may be a car or two and some rocks somewhere near where we dove off. But we weren't worried as long as we hit the hole. It didn't stop us when someone would get hurt becaus ethey were dumb and missed the hole.
Never thinking that when diving from a fifty foot cliff while partying anything can happen.
Then ole Bucky Covington reminds us that we were born to mothers that smoked and drank, and yes everything was covered with lead based paint and still here I am. Hallelujah!
Thanks Nick! You're the one.
Jim
