@Bullitt- 's post is so true!!

I know how Al Bundy feels ... said "I do", had kids ... then it was goodbye Challenger convertible and hello minivan 

At least Al got to keep the old Dodge ...

  Heck...I have a "Sucker" tattoo on my forehead that is only visible to needy single women! I did it THREE TIMES! LMAO!

God Bless

Oh man, I saw the title and immediately went the marriage angle as well.  You guys beat me to it.  So freakin true though!

NO contest
Other then being born which was a HUGE mistake !
Getting married , nothing like losing 99% of everything you have worked your whole life for ... Still far happier alone & broke

My BIGest $$$ disaster was dealing with a Florida contractor back in '07 / '08.   Was having a house built and the contractor went belly up. Me and a bunch of others had partially built homes. And some folks had ALL there cash tied up, lucky for me that was not the case.I ended up cutting the property loose, for pennies on the dollar a few years later. But sometime getting the thorn pulled out is worth more than the dollars... what a PITA

[Brads70]

Wow good grief! Glad your still with us!  How big is that speedway? Dirt track?

it was 4/10 mile dirt. they re-did it right after my wreck .. shorter and walls around it now.... rain washed out a rut and lucky me the right frame rail pole vaulted me .. 7-8 flips . i was pinned in it and on fire.  took 45 mins to get me out. bent the halo and the rear main hoop bent/compressed  8 inches ! did not break any welds ! rocket chassis...
