Peter - I still find my sore-no-more pad to be working well. Although my meters are not anywhere close to MEGA. It's a very dense foam - I was using 2 pieces of 2" of seat cushion foam (total 4") wrapped in a beach towel - it was not nearly as effective as the 1/4" sore-no-more.

Kiga - take care of yourself.

Just27 - WoW. Amazing accomplishment. When I get close to 10 million, I'll drink champagne as well. Heck I may even do it as I close in on 3 million!

Karyn - welcome back.

Thanks for that seat saver reference, Gina!

Here's a link to the "jel"pads - made by JL Racing. They also have a sorbothane (sp?) one, but this one seems to be the most popular.

Now that I think about it....seems like we had some conversation about other items on this website....

Thx, all, on the lifetime 10MM posts. I don't know why I was particularly thrilled with this number, but I was.

I do hope that Kiba and Dan are recovering from whatever ailed them. If William was down, also, I'd have to think it was "podium related!"

The sore-no-more pad works well for me, for about an hour, then I have to add an old TempurPedic pillow to the mix or my sciatic nerve starts bothering me down one side ... and that really bites.

Hi BG I should have said that it is a 'mock=up' photo that they do at the carnival...so no article...but I must say that he did very well at that carmival, and it comes up again in about a month's time, so he is training very hard. He loves to hurdle and is quite good at it..........great photo and we love it.

Also, got a shoe in the mail from you the other day...thanks! It is on the fridge!!

Cheers
BBB & Tomo

3B: That is a really, really great image of the younger Mr. O'Malley. Has he changed much in the past year?

Will S: congrats on the mega mills! Hope that you'll be home for the holidays.
