Adventure Club
All,
Many of you know that I turned 33 a few months ago and have been struggling to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life. What you may not know is that I was almost killed in the skys over Haiti. (I have the pictures, oxygen mask, news report, and apology letter to prove it.) This was a real kick in the ass and I think I'm going to change my middle name "Danger." Looking for input and ideas here.... Rules: #1 - Brag the **** out of Adventure Club.  #2 - You must be in good physical condition and able to hike, camp, and be self sufficent in austere conditions for a week. #3 - Participation in and activities in Adventure Club is optional. #4 - Over 1/2 adventures should be kid/family friendly. #5 - No adventures that have a significant probablilty of death until your children are in College. #6 - As our likely hood of real death goes up (past say 60 years) adventures will become increasingly more dangerous. #7 - We will economize adventures to ensure the greatest oportunity for participation and the greatest number of adventures. #8 - We will create a list of adventures. (Bucket List) #9 - Each Adventure will have one designated lead for the purpose of planning.

5. Define significant probability? Driving a car is rather dangerous, no? 8. What if nobody wants to drive on the Nordschleife but me? I like the idea. How many do you think will participate?

What I do know is that we are no longer going to live and die in 3/4 time. And if we can find some friends to join us ...even better.

Research
Juat google "Adventure Club" Some are just covers for travel agencies. Good example...
http://www.adventureclubsa.com/ClubP...enuoptID=28339 We need a name and a mascot. WV-something seems kinda passe. How about "Mountaineer Safari Club?"
