I had back surgery 3 weeks ago and I'm almost completely back to normal now. I guess it's proof that your youthful actions can catch up to you later in life. So I'm in retirement for the 3rd or 4th time now - we'll see how long this one lasts

WOW!! Glad you are better.......

We all assume you're using "normal" in the relative sense.

Glad you're OK, Bill.

Yeah, I mean normal for me - figured that went without saying

Sounds like you were lucky, well ....... relatively speaking. Good to hear that you're almost back to normal. Best of Luck on that retirement thing

I meant retired from doing jet ski shows, not my regular job

Fixed it for ya, Bill.

This weekend in France, Pierre Maixent pulled off the world's first double backflip. I've known Pierre since 2001, when we did a two-month-long show together in Belgium. He was a crazy Frenchman then, and he's only gotten crazier with age.

You can see video of the double backflips here;
