Re: This might not have been a good idea, but...
Travis,
Nate's not talking about the hill climb and all, he's talking about sticking
both your legs out of a rolling jeep. You could have lost both your legs.
I'll bet that you wouldn't have considered that a good trade: CJ5 for two
legs. Please, please! Never do that again! Sure you would be extremely
disappointed if you lost your CJ, but you can get another CJ.
