    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...'Wow! What a ride!'

    I got a .2034 with no cones...can't get past that bobbing bobcat stage.

    OK, finally made it to a .1794, no cones, also rocketing rabbit.

    Phil - I don't think we let old guys play this game...you'll notice onething hasn't played But YOU need to try again...by the 8th or 10th time, you'll have another tenth of a second knocked off that time :P

    I played. I just saw no reason until now to post my time and rank.

    .2086 with a .162 this morning at 6:30. Only problem for this Bobbing Bobcat was that I wanted to take them still in the flock

    I got a .1854, but that was because I actually had -- I swear this is true -- a .0000! I got anxious, and tried to second guess when that critter would run... and got reeaaal lucky (after about 15 "3 second violations" ). I tried to do a printscreen so I could post that average -- showing the .0000 -- but I couldn't get it to work.

    Anyway, my real averages are typically in the .2000 to .2200 range, making me a Bobbing Bobcat most of the time...

    Yeah, but even with my "miracle guess" I still wasn't able to beat your times...
