Sherrie,
Never worry about saying the wrong thing around here. Heck, I do it at least once a day, I'm sure

. Friends will always give you more slack than strangers (er...I hope!).
I am glad Dan is living life to the fullest. I was told a couple of weeks ago that at some point I will need a hip replacement and it will pretty much mean reduction in sports activities other than walking. If that is the case, I am going to play softball and look for a basketball team to play on this fall, just in case.
We just replaced a worn set of autocross tires and since it is more driver skill than strength or endurance, it should be the perfect sporting activity!
