There's just no amount that I would do it for. One thing is that there is no possible way I could. Heights just scare me sh**less. I sided my garage 3-4 years ago and still have one peak not finished. Get shaky when I get high on the ladder. Wimp....I'd be frozen at 100 feet.

..Thanks `Jerry,
I appreciate your concerns, but life is a gamble and we all play our own games...I think if one prepares the best they can for any risk, the more successful that they will accomplish the task at hand...

There are many dangerous professions in our world...Would I'd rather be a police officer in a shoot `out, or a kid in combat ? I could fill the pages of the MCF with professions that are dangerous 4-Sure...Climbing a tower pales in comparsion to many challenges ~>I think ?

I do think that driving is more dangerous
Answers.com - How many deaths are caused by car accidents a year


There were 2.9 million injuries and 42643 people were killed in auto accidents. ... Deaths due to auto accidents per year? How many US car deaths per year? ...
About 115 people die every day in vehicle crashes in the United States -- one death every 13 minutes.


Climbing a Tower, does not look bad after reading
the above : ) I wonder how many Tower Climber's die in a year ?

LOL `Jerry, yes I fool some of the people some of the time, but
not all of the people all of the time..
I have to give credit to the World Wide Web
Search Engines & also the wisdom of the senior
citizens of my village that raised & taught me.
I love them 4-Sure.

I don't know how anyone can get bored, `if they are
fortunate to be connected to the `Web..
I could spend my life researching & learning...
Just like your posted Vid ~> WoW
I've watched it several times & enjoyed...
There is so much out there `if we just search & learn...
Thanks for yours & everyone's posts and
keeping the activity on our forum increasing
&
our Monte Carlo Family
growing
