Second thing. English has to go first.

I'm alomost 69 years old and have forgotten most of what I learned in college.
But I still remember what I learned in High School ... how to copy Morse code.

I still remember what I learned in grade school ... how to ride a two wheel
bicycle.

Now, if I could only remember that name of the woman I've live with for the past
43 years ...........

It's hard to figure out what you're actually trying to say sometimes Mark,
but what it looks like you were trying to convey to the race organizer is
that you're retarded.
