You need more clients so you can afford more meals.

I had some bad cases that had been going on since 2019 finally get dismissed the beginning of the summer. The last one got dismissed the Thursday before trial as the 60 jury questionnaires were being uploaded to the court file. I'm not taking those cases anymore, regardless of money. I basically took the summer off and did lots of camping.

Now I only take nice clients with cases I like.

She was on FIRE at the plate. Over 4 games, she went 6-for-9 with 2 home runs and 4 doubles, and lead her team in RBIs (7) and runs scored (5). Unfortunately, the team struggled defensively, with uncharacteristic errors by talented players, and handed wins to the 2 teams that made it to the championship.

Probably the worst cold-related time on a bike I can remember was January 1, 2000, when I decided to ring in the Millennium* with a ride up Mt Hamilton..

Could this girls team beat BillyD's team of olds?

Discuss.

Does BillyD's team play fastpitch or slow-pitch? If it's slow-pitch, both teams will probably struggle with hitting the other team's style of pitching. I suspect the girls will adapt quicker, however. Either way, I'm putting my money on the girls.

Nothing quite like being wet and descending in the cold. Hypothermic at the bottom and I was sick for a couple weeks.

After that I carried extra layers when climbing in cold weather. I sweat so much when climbing even in the 30s so I'm always soaking wet when the descents come after a long climb.

We play slow pitch, all they have to do is play deeper than usual. Their best bet is to hit hot grounders, most of these old bastids can’t bend down while moving. :lol:

When I was about to head out to Sonoma to pick up the Centurion Ironman, Mrs. GeneJockey said, "How are you going to pay for it?" (meaning what method),

I said the seller wanted cash but would take PayPal. She said, "That much cash?"

I said, "It's only $300."

She said, "OH!" She thought it was a lot more. So I told her that the blue Lotus was $150 and the red Lotus was $175. She said, "That's cheaper than some of your watches!"

So, apart from the space considerations, I think she's feeling a lot better about my purchasing old bikes. If I'd known she thought I was spending so much, maybe I'd have spent more! There was that $1000 Litespeed last month..........
