[CENTER]Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go So make the best of this test, and don't ask why It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life. So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial For what it's worth it was worth all the while It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life. It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life. It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right. I hope you had the time of your life.

So Far in my life I have overdosed once,laid in intensive care after rolling a truck 5 times, broken several bones,callapsed lung,the list goes on. I have also fallen from the sky for 2and a half min. flying around clouds and living a dream i have had for years. I have jumped off 900ft tall bridges into the dead still chilled air of october into what may be the most beautiful valley's in the world. I have hung from the bottome of a hellicopter at 5000ft just to let go and play tag with my friends. I have hit upwards of 160mph down a lonely stretch of road. and blazed thru corners at speeds that would make most people faint. but its all a day in the life. Its a part of me. love it or hate it. its who i am. Will i ever completely settle down? only time will tell but I'm really loving the way things are going these days and wouldnt have it any other way. Life is good and i have no regrets. and in my opinion thats all a man can ask for. :up:
