Arthritic knees are why I stopped running and started biking. Twelve 26 mile marathons did me in. My doc says biking is good for knees, because the cartilege (sp?) is compressed with each stroke and fluid runs in and out. This keeps the cartilege from getting brittle and breaking off. I also take glucosamine daily, which is said to actually restore damaged cartilege.

My first "concert" was the singing cowboy Gene Autry at New York's Madison Square Garden in 1945. The opening scene was a completely dark Garden. Then they herded hundreds of long horn steers into the arena, and they had day glow horns which shown brightly in the dark. Gene followed on his horse, Champion, singing "Ghost Riders In The Sky." What a thrill for a 7 year old! 24,000 people were there. A great show and rodeo followed. I can still remember hundreds of cowboys sitting on the 42nd Street curb, oogling the girls and eyeballing the skyscrapers.

214 - 429 + 862 = 647
647 x .05 = 32.35
32.35 / 2 = 16.175
16.175 + 11.825 = 28
I have no clue how you came up with that.

ahhh 214 - 429 + 862 * .05 / 2 + 11.825 is not the same as (((214 - 429 + 862) * .05 ) / 2) + 11.825 ... If i remember from high school math you're supposed to do multiplication and division before you do the addition... I don't know, I might just be ********. heh.
