Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."

Sorry to hear about Jeannie's asthma attack -- will she make another BQ attempt soon?
She is targeting Med City at the end of May, but waiting until a little closer to race day to sign up (want to avoid a heat fest).
