No not the MLK dream, which is a great one.

Oh yeah, also went to the National Civil Rights Museum at the old Lorraine Motel in Memphis where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968. I also created a "quickie" free Playbook app with some background information and text from his famous "I Have A Dream" speech. I am planning to update it someday with some pictures that I took there and maybe even add some audio, but don't hold your breath.

Wonder how we ever survived. Things we did are too dangerous now and you'll shoot your eye out

[SixStringMadness]

I used to have a Dukes of Hazzard big wheel with an E-Brake on one of the back tires.

That was drifting!!

Like mowing my grandmothers lawn with a lawn mower that wouldn't shut off, until you shut it off. Not because you let go of the handle
