This is unusual
Just this morning I had a blaze of light hit me in the forehead and realised for the first time that i'm kinda glad I'm getting older.
I used to be pretty stupid, messing around, always in trouble and looking for more, now its pretty cool. I dont look for trouble any more, in fact I get some peculiar satisfaction out of not getting in trouble. I even drive at about the speed limit which used to be just a challenge. Now I truck around at 80 which for me is pretty good. Except I had the Porsche up to a 100 a couple of times, but that doesn't count and anyway its nothing like as bad as Jay who had his Cayman up to 165 on the Polk Parkway. He'd a been in jail crying like Paris if he got caught.
I've never had the Tundra over 95 and I've never had the Porsche over 105. I need to find somewhere where I can get the Porsche up to 145 because I've only ever been 144 on the back of a motorcycle. Ronny Quinn and i one night down on the Swansea Straight, we went past a school when there was a PTA meeting going on at 144 two up.
The bike was a HRD White Lightning that had just won the Isle of Man TT races in 1953.
The school had the only lights on in the whole two mile stratch and I recall thinking if one of these parents decide to leave now and drive out onto the road they are gonna get a shock when ronny and i appear through their windscreen. That passed for a serious thought in those days.
I don't even get in trouble with women any more.
1. I'm boring.
2. I'm not interested in that pit of the gut shitty feeling when you go home after screwing somebody.
3. How could you do that to Jie.

So here I am again, it's 2013, I'm good, well I don't know about good but so far there's nothing wrong that not eating for a week wouldn't fix. Still in love, I worry about Jie, she's great but I WISH SHE WOULDN'T HAVE TO DRIVE ALL DAY, she isn't a natural driver,after all she didn't know anything about driving until she was 40.
I think I am a natural driver, at least I've always considered I was, if you love driving a car then you are probably pretty good at it. I remember driving to Newcastle at night just because i loved to drive, that was 112 miles one way, so i did love it, and the faster i drove the better I got. And the more apexes I clipped.
I thought I would try to explain why I use Bigdog as my Nom de Plume. It's not because I think I am a big deal, i'm not. it's because I always ran a business by myself. Alone. I never had a boss in the same state as I was. I rarely had a boss in the same country. I only one time had a boss in the same hemisphere. So I ran things like a little autocrat, a big deal in a small puddle. A Bigdog.
