Is this the End of Pcad?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Hey man, best healthcare in the world. Not for nothing, but I feel fortunate that I even HAVE coverage so I have a health insurance company to argue with in the first place. Not everybody is so fortunate.
Arguable point.

Seems as though the thread is decelerating in it's approach to 20 pages. Thought I would post here and help it along...

The letter my insurance company sent me denying coverage for the physical therapy was laughable. You really had to read it. My Mom is a lawyer, she thought it was absurdity in print.

We walked three miles on the MUP today with Sam. I was passed by dozens and dozens of freds and sub-freds. But after half an hour my back stopped hurting and I felt better, worked up a good sweat, it was pretty warm. Sam didn't want to keep going, I had to kick his doggie ass. He listens to PDaddy. My wife can't get him to do anything. Sam knows that PDaddy don't play that.

It's skinny. If they barely see us now when they're fully distracted, what chance do they have of seeing a little skinny flag? All I'm saying is it's a fool's security blanket, like sticking your head in the sand.

Pcad was recently sighted in a shuffle board community wearing a bicycle cap backwards and talking smack.

Your assertion that I am contentious is not completely accurate you know.

Pcad,

Inquiring minds want to know whether or not your medical condition means that you will be upgrading your BF-posting CAT next season? Are you going to go for the coveted double (BF and FB)?

I don't know what this means, but this is a problem, I got up this AM and it started killing me after an hour, went for a three mile walk, finally broke down and took pain meds at 2PM. But I really hope this calms back down, I REALLY don't want to take pain meds, that really sucks.
