if its the real plague, like what ray and i had, nothing but rest will help you. it starts as viral and then weakens you so bacteria can run rampant in your upper respiratory and fill your lungs with liquid that you will hack up for a week. enjoy!

Evening guys.
Aaron that is a very good description of it.
Miles just rest and I also needed two rounds of antibiotics to get rid of my sinus infu**ion.

Well I had to go to Sears and get two new batts for the truck today.
It has been struggling to start the last week or two.
I tried charging the old ones but they would not hold a charge.
I got the platinum ones and they made a BIG difference.
They have 930 CCA amps.

They are group 65 I think.
Hi Jim and you should be real happy if you can keep from getting it.
A LOT of people I know have had it in the last month or so.
It took me about two weeks to get over it completely.

^^^ hes not kidding either. We still go and ride at his private track and he still has his race quad, but he has only raced once since he broke his neck almost a year ago.

And the kid was FAST. he really never let off the throttle, even when he should, or when bouncing off rev limiter.

Now he has a pink miata with green rims, and a fuzzy steering wheel. They have more money than they know what to do with (literally) im surprised he didnt decide to do a real race car..

Looks like the track hasn't changed much over the years. There was always killer rock roost there, must be much worse with 4 wheelers!

Pink Miata!!
