I propose a thread honoring old age in which each person lists their current physical ailments and general excuses that prevent them from beating people like Paul Smith and Rich Saeger.
I will lead with a growing list of my own.
1. Shoulder pain
2. Heart palpatations
3. High cholesterol
4. Left hip stress fracture
5. Lower back pain (from shoveling snow!)
6. Wife and 3 kids.
Perhaps we can give an award to the winner and the biggest whiner at the end of this thread.

About 5 weeks ago, one of the horses tried to (literally) kill me. She used her whole body (1200 lbs) to knock me down twice and then dragged me when my hand became tangled in the lead line. As part of the dragging, she pulled me over a small wooden bridge the wrong way. Net result: Injured elbow, injured shoulder, injured ankle, lots of bruises, sore back, hurt pride. Ankle was FINALLY healing, but I slipped on a ladder last night while putting up some wiring in the barn; now it hurts again.
Oh yes, I'm ugly, too.
