OK. So, are you living a life of risk, or playing it safe? Cause me? I'd rather be scared spitless than bored silly; I'd rather crash spectacularly than fall asleep at the wheel. Machines do the same thing over and over again. People are designed to risk, to dream, to fail, to get up and try again.
At the very least, our "personal highlight reel" in heaven will be good for a laugh.

Hal9000, I was wondering if someone would comment on good vs. bad risks. Well done, and very true. When it comes to foolhardy risks, yeah. Be my guest, I'll watch on YouTube. But when it comes to calculated ones, I'd rather be the first to jump.
