Right on!!   My dad passed away last December, and beside his favorite chair (that he slept in for the last 10 years due to bad lungs from smoking) there was a saying he had written down as follows:

"LIFE IS NOT A JOURNEY TO THE GRAVE WITH THE INTENTION OF ARRIVING SAFELY IN A PRETTY AND WELL PRESERVED BODY, BUT RATHER TO SKID IN BROADSIDE, THOROUGHLY USED UP, TOTALLY WORN OUT AND LOUDLY PROCLAIMING...."WOW, WHAT A RIDE!!!""

I do not know whether he made this up or copied it from something he read, or saw on TV; but what I do know, is that this saying should be the motto for any motocross and/or extreme sports person.

God Speed Dad!!

My dad was also a BIG motorcycle fan....he always said to bury him with his bike when the time came....unfortunately, it did not happen for obvious reasons; but he always enjoyed watching the Carlsbad GP every year on ABC's Wide World of Sports along with the few races you would find on TV in the early years.
