Go ahead and be sure and tells us how it is.

FH,

The thought of motor vehicles drivers, cyclists and pedestrians all in a coma is of only accademic interest.

Perhaps you are advocating a return to the 1960's, when most of us were semi-comatose. It was optional then however.

I think any measure that will save cyclists from death or injury is a good one.

Sadly, when motor vehicles and cyclists become involved in collisions it is a rarity for the vehicle driver to come off second best. It is the cyclist who is more likely to end up in a coma or worse.

Kind regards,

Huskey,

I had assumed until now that politicians in general were comatose unless there was a pay rise in the offing at which time they seem to be able to spring into action at the speed of light.

I don't have an ex-wife yet, I simply don't seem know how to shake women that I become involved with off.

My little noisy Korean buddy is becoming more and more demanding, so any advice you could give me would be most welcome at the moment. Perhaps she needs a sedative or something like valium to slow her down!

I thought it was all off, but her fiance won't travel to attend to her particular needs.

Kind regards,

Huskey,

You and I both know that faking impotance is not good for the male ego. The loss of self confidence could be devestating to a man my age. Think of the potential for psychological damage! Its probably not too far into the future, that I'll be condemned to that fate in any case.

I've heard of blokes, who were so shocked by what they saw laying beside them in the morning, that they faked ejaculation so that they could escape the situation. But, I would have to admit that I've never done that.

The idea has merit though and I'll keep it at the back of my mind. For the time being though I suppose I'll be doing the "Coral Route" several times a year.

Any more good ideas?

Kind regards,
