Yikes! ::
Gram Joins the "Coffin Dodgers" Motorcycle Club

Gram, "At 98 there sure isn't much you haven't done - but joining a motorcycle club - that's really pushing the envelope!"

My Gram has done more things in her 90' than most people get done in their first 50. Like riding in a hot air balloon, or going tubing behind a boat, or going for a daily swim or just about anything you could possibly imagine. If you phoned her up and asked her if she wanted to go fishing she would have her gear at the door before you had a chance to hang up. Not to mention you would be 'out fished' when you got to the fishing hole.

Looks like everybody enjoyed themselves on this run. Gram, "You're a party animal!"

What Planet Are You From?

Maybe we could have some of your oil! Maybe you harbour terrorists and we could come over, open up a can of "Whoop-Ass", and just take your oil. Maybe you would like a holiday in Guantanamo Bay?

Extremely rare considering the average density of intergalactic space is in the range of one atom per cubic meter. Stellar thought that!
