What’s the fine for intoxicated skate boarding ?
I’ve also been there and done that as a passenger, but not on a road. Thank goodness I lived through those youthful years of liquid dumb and never hurt anyone else. If only our mature selves could have conversations with our stupid young selves.
Been there – done that – no harm was intended – BUT – you know boats/golf cars and The George Jones singING lawnmower story. Next will probably be non NFL neighborhood football games _ GOTTA GET THAT DOLLAR !
Stick to playing tennis it’s much better for your health than golf. Sad to hear of this young ladies misfortune. Get well soon.
