How can I keep repeating my functions below endlessly?  
I am Using the enterframe and timer class.  
I want my object to keep going across the stage over and over.  
Do I need a **for**  **loop**?Any help would be great, thanks.

**Timer Class**  
var myTimer:Timer=new Timer(10,10000);  
myTimer.start();  
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveMan);  
function moveMan(myevent:TimerEvent):void{  
car\_mc.y-=2

}  
**Enter frame**

man\_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, moveman);  
function moveman(myevent:Event):void {  
man\_mc.y-=5;  
if (man\_mc.y\<-400) {  
man\_mc.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, moveman);  
}  
}
