That sucks man. Glad you're ok. Got my own "too young for this shit" stuff going on, but no where near as serious.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
Pete - Good to hear from you! Sorry to hear about the quadruple bypass. I had a catheter ablation 10 years ago, when I was 48. I kept thinking the same thing - I'm too young to be here. But, think of it this way, they caught it and fixed you. So, now you're good to go for a long time!Sneaky Pete wrote: ↑Fri Oct 21, 2022 12:29 pm Hey Fellas! It appears that my life has got in the way of the Outpost. My apologies. I found myself falling into Vintage racing with a couple Triumph Spitfires and having a blast up until 8 weeks ago this coming Monday. I had surprise 4x bypass surgery on my ticker and I feel great except for the feeling that I'm "tied" together. Walking 3 - 5 miles a day. A few words of wisdom.....LISTEN TO YOUR BODY! That said I still have the Raby 997 4.0L but haven't driven it much. Thoughts have entered my head of selling it but I talk myself off the ledge every timeHope y'all are good!

Good to hear from you Pete and better to hear you're recovering from your surgery. Very scary and hope you find some good Porsche therapy before it's too cold out.Sneaky Pete wrote: ↑Fri Oct 21, 2022 12:29 pm Hey Fellas! It appears that my life has got in the way of the Outpost.

I don't think I knew you had a-fib too.. I was 41 for mine (actually done on my birthday) and yeah heart surgery of any type at any age is too young.FRUNKenstein wrote: ↑Mon Oct 24, 2022 3:23 pm I had a catheter ablation 10 years ago, when I was 48.

I am VERY glad none of you old farts are newly dead.
Heh. That's a lot of smack coming from a fat 52-year-old.

Fun fact: one of the tracks on the (home-made cassette) release of my old 90's band was titled "Spock is Cool."
