I'm a mother****in pro.
Hit a patch of ice at the top of the curve in the road and bailed into the shoulder to avoid oncoming cars. Controlled the slide by pumping my brakes til I stopped.

Actually, it's been working out well for me so far 
If I die, I never have to worry about anything again 
I had to get out and walk a little. Not the kind of adrenaline rush I prefer lol

Finished ordering my tax return parts for the YJ while I was at work today.
- Metalcloak Arched front fenders with 4" flares
- TruckLite LED headlights

I splurged and got the 5/8" lift shackles with greasable 9/16" bolts.
Some of these with a 4" flare:
