Rode the Talladega National Forest yesterday with a Land Rover and 2 built LJRs (both owned by the same guy!)
My stock cap has a key lock on it....maybe its an 'export' TJ thing.I installed a locking gas door, nothing expensive as I picked it up second hand. Someone has stolen 2 gas caps off my Jeep, no gas mind you just 2 caps. Hope this will at least slow them down a little.

Yep the same! perhaps its because we can multi skill a bit better than the yanks? Afteral they stop in sixth and then put it in first lol

IKR SMHI know right, forgot you ain't up to speed on all this texting lingo. I am not that hip on it at 58, but my dang kids are
Seeing as I don't text - and this isn't a text conversation, you're right! I'm not a teenaged girl...I know right, forgot you ain't up to speed on all this texting lingo. I am not that hip on it at 58, but my dang kids are

As an increasingly tired, old dude. And definitely increasingly grumpy!What's more important is How do you identify?
I heard wearing them belly dancer outfits will do that to a guy!!!!!As an increasingly tired, old dude. And definitely increasingly grumpy!
10, 20 years ago, I could walk into a class, strike a pose and start dancing. Starting about 5 years ago or so, I found I had to stretch, warm up, and all kinds of crap like that. What's up with that?I heard wearing them belly dancer outfits will do that to a guy!!!!!

It has been my honor to sit at the knee of any number of old crones to learn as they all had BTDT. Now *I* am the crone, and passing wisdom down to the next generation. I don't know how many more years I'll be able to do this - most dancers seem to retire around age 70, not sure I'll make it that far.
He's certainly right about weight lifters and similar having flexibility issues, but I don't know where he got his info about Belly Dancers as the dance form increases core strength. The "sweet young thangs" usually have ab strength that is just incredible. A story: A lot of dancers can do what's called a layback (backbend and further back with the legs), and then they'll slowly lower themselves towards the floor, and when they reach the edge of their strength, they'll drop down into a Turkish fold (laying on back but with calves folded under thighs - sitting on heels basically). The stronger ones can get lower before dropping, and the drop is controlled. Ok - so there was one dancer who was doing this at a show I was at. Only she never dropped - she just lowered herself all the way down very slowly, then did some snakey movements down there without her shoulders/back ever touching the floor. The hall went nuts!I've got a question while you're here. I've been dealing with back issues off and on for a bit, and researching recovery let me do Dr. Stuart McGill (I highly recommend his "Back Mechanic" book). Anyways I was listening to him in an interview and he talked about the tradeoff between flexibility and stability/strength. On the stable end of the spectrum he talked about strong-man competitors who struggled to tie their own shoes but could lift and carry tremendous weight. On the flexible end of the spectrum he brought up belly dancers with super supple spines, but they had so little core stability that they couldn't do a single sit up.
So I'm wondering if that's true? Can you and your fellow dancers do a sit up?
