Time to gloat...What are your best rankings for SCM?

In no particular order and my appologies for the other 20 I could name but am too lazy to do so:
Hochstein, Ross, Hiltabiddle, Santos, Ammon, Brundage, Benucci, Varozza, blah, blah, blah, blah
Yeah, 40-44 is a hoot.
I wish I could pay money and go back to 39.
Don't forget Geek too.
Right now, I am 4th in the 1500 and 400 IM. 6th in the 200 fly. I think that I will just make it in the 800 because I had to use my split from the 1500. It is too bad that I wasn't able to do a stand alone 800 this SCM season.

... and I was only referencing 45-49 BR, not any of the other, lesser strokes.
I be thrilled just to be in the TOP 10 in the Dixie Zone for anything I swam at the St. Nicks Meet. That is the only SCM meet I did (and first meet since April), I wasn't rested, and I wore a VERY low tech, poly Speedo Endurance Square Leg suit.:applaud:
With all due respect, I think the men's 45-49 BR age group is one of the most fearsome. Guthrie, Blank, Dicks, Weismann, Fristoe, etc.:eek:
Perhaps only the men's 40-44 age group is more terrifying.:notworthy:
Just took a peek and was surprised I got in top 10 thus far. In 40-44 currently 4th in 100 fly and 5th in 200fly. Kinda a bummer I did this meet first week in Novemeber and was not even in shape. Wish I could have one more shot at a 25 meter meet now that Im in shape.
Oh well, it is what it is, onto short course yards now :)
As far as I can tell, there are plenty of scary fast guys/gals in every age group. But the other thing that's scary is that new names pop up regularly swimming remarkable times - an example in my age group: Jamie Fowler, Back/IM stud.
This can only get worse!
