you don't go to Key West for the beaches.
Other keys have decent beaches.

First time was rotator cuff and labrum repair. Did not get ahead on the meds after I got home. Worse pain I’ve ever had. So the rehab. It pays off.

Went back to playing rugby again. Tore my labrum again and they also had to do a biceps tenodisis (cutting bicep tendon off the shoulder, drilling a hole in the upper arm bone, and reattaching there).
Rotator cuff pain and immobility was the worst, by far.

I respect the cultural aspect of it and appreciate it. I also grew up playing rugby and follow the All Blacks, so maybe see it a bit differently.

Yes, it's beeen bastardized by so many others, but of the unique culture we have left in this world, it's authentic.
1. See Michael Jordan play in person at a home game for the Bulls - Completed.

2. Run a marathon. Completed x 2.

3. Hit a hole in one. TBD

4. Attend the Masters. TBD

I got divorced when my boys were 7 and 5. It was the best day and worst day of my life. I fought for time and not money, figuring I'd make more money but can't make more time. It set me back about 7 years financially, but got the time i wanted.

Someone above mentioned taking them every time you can. I agree. In the end, I think it has made me a better dad. I made sure i was present and did everything with them when they were with me. I'm not sure i would have always given them the proper time had i been there 100% of the time. I got to see them almost every day, whether in the morning or evening. yes, for a few years, every time I'd drop them off, i cried on the way back to my home. It gets better and they see, in the end, your love for them.
All is well for me in Magnolia. Lucked out it would seem.
Oh, I don’t have that level of wealth, never will. I do take advantages of opportunities when presented.

I will agree that many don’t get opportunities others do.
People want what others have but they don’t want to work for it.

In college, Sam Houston State, I had a rugby teammate that worked at Subway. He gave us free subs all the time until the manager counted 100 loaves of bread short one month. He was fired and we moved the racket to Wendy’s, where we had another teammate working.

people typing 'should of' instead of 'should have' or should've'
