Jack I was playing football and league BB until I was almost 46. Thats when I noticed the pain.
It wnet downhill from there. The vagaries of an athletic youth as Wayward put so well!
Luckily I had a surgical option.

What are you waiting for? It has your name written all over it. You can always get it painted Black. Just like the 993 days.

I will be 67 on my next birthday. I still walk several miles a day workout on a "Total Gym"play golf when i can. Of course there is always the yard and car work and then playing with the toys. Since the airplane left( the eye issue) I enjoy the Cayman S, the '83 track ready SC and looking forward to the '09 Carrera S with PDK. As the frame around my license plate says "Fighter pilots never grow up" my wife had that made for me .. any you know what I don't want to. My body may be aging but my mind, spirit and initiative are as young as anyone's and I plan to stay that way. Now where is the Bayer.

Just got done having a fun drive with Dan (behind me) today down my favorite road. The PDK car is "intelligent" in the way it shifts. Uncanny... even if you don't use the paddles (or coin slot returns). It's going to win a lot of people over...

I havent had the honor yet to drive the PDK. However I am amazed at the Intuition of the AMG Speedshift tranny, really amazing.
Jack I wish we were close enough to hit the golf course together!!

I don't know how to post pictures here but let me have your e-mail and I will snd you some pictures of the SC. I'm doing anther mod. changing out rhe small whale tail for a duck tail, always liked the duck tail better. As for golf any time. I don't play very often because I have no one to play with but enjoy getting out. I would think you are still several months away from full swings, but putting and chipping will keep your game sharp and not hurt the back. Merry Christmas Jack
