I dont feel like an underachiever. I feel like someone who didnt spend their life in a room or with my nose in a book.
And I'll bet hard money I can track a deer or rip out the bullseye of paper at 100 yards WAY better then she EVER will be able to.

I think Raju Raval needs a better picture.
right. I'll be the first to admit here that there is an elite in society-intellectual, physical, whatever. Some people are good enough, and some aren't. Depends on your definition of success-your's is guns and such physicall boobery. Mine is wealth, so if someone is rich, I believe they are successful. If that necessarily true? You decide:thumbsup:

Nope, I can acknowledge their accomplishments without it lowering my self-esteem. They chose their paths, I chose mine, and I'm not trying to compete against them.
Thats great, she can play tennis and talk to terrorists. I can juggle, do a headstand and my ass can smoke a cigarette.

you know what i did today on my day off? woke up around 9, sat around in my pj's till about 11, finally decided to take a shower. got dressed and rode the motorcycle for a while. came home, took a nap in front of the tv. went out and rode the motorcycle again. came home, browsed the web. i'd say it was a day well spent. someone should give me a scholarship for my accomplishment.
