The squeeze will always be worth the juice. Skiing is a lot to some of us.

In 2009 I hit a Nissan Armada containing a family of 4 while driving intoxicated. I fled the scene and was never prosecuted.

The only thing that really keeps me going in life, and the thing that gives me by far and away the most joy and happiness I've ever known.

Skiing is like an ex that no matter what I can’t stop myself from going back to, somethin I spend too much money on and is prolly bad for my health.

My favorite form of self-expression is jibbing on my skis and watching others in the community (with much more skill than me) do the same. It's deeper than a hobby for sure.
