Pcad's Countdown to 41 Ecstasy

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

No. For safety's sake, constricting neckwear should be avoided.

OK. I'm back from lunch.

I see I haven't missed anything.

It would be just like pcad to have had some physical crisis and be in transit to a medical center just as he was about to achieve a milestone. The stress of the moment can effect the elderly like that.

Welcome to the 41.

This thread is a celebration of the community we share, the friendships that have been forged, the honest differences that well meaning members can have and attempt to resolve, the general lighthearted spirit of helpfulness that pervades the 41 like a fresh spring breeze.

Now sit back as we celebrate pcad's entry into BF uber-legendhood (at least in his own mind) when he wakes from his drug induced stupor.

There are things that you can do to prevent premature fireworks in the future.
