Years of motorcycling taught me that a) I am invisible, and b) Everyone is
trying to kill me.
I wish everyone was required to ride a motorcycle for a year or two before
being allowed to drive a car. The ones that survive will be the ones that learn
defensive driving! <g>
Yeah, yeah, wishful thinking. Next I'll be wanting honest politicians concerned
about doing what's best for the country.....
