Never said it wasn't. Just debating the notion that you've suddenly turned into Dennis Miller or something.

I could try...but I honestly don't think it would be possible to get him that drunk without killing him

I hope you're not posting on SF from work. If you are, this is really ironic.

I'm assuming you're closer to your 30s than your 20s... how the hell did you get into boarding so late? Didn't it kick your ass enough to be put off by it? Most people I encounter who start boarding later in life hate it and go back to skiing.

I do miss not having aches and pains after a day of hard riding (back in my late teens/early 20s). I also miss the intestinal fortitude to grind rails and go big off jumps.

I'm 37 actually. I started skiing first. I tried snowboarding a couple times in my early 20s and hated it. Well, I can't actually call what I did then as snowboarding. It was more like falling a hundred times and eating ibuprofen for a few days after. So yes, I went right back to skiing. When I was 30, I tried it again and had some success keeping balanced. Kept at it, got the hang of it, and loved it...still do. I started with small jumps before I attempted big jumps. I'm more a freerider than a freestyler. I've got 3 cracked ribs to prove I love the sport heh.
