Yeah, right. We're just asking for it. You car drivers
are such victims.

Maybe you should have trauma counselors to help
you get over being bullied by us bicyclists,
ya pussies.

Tommy boy...I drive a big assed vehicle for a living. Ive had (1)
motor vehicle citation in 9 MILLION miles, and that for crossing a
double yellow line into the car pool lane to avoid a moron swerving
all over the lane next to mine while fighting with his cell phone.

I mention that big assed vehicle, because it really doesnt care if it
turns a rider into a red smear on the pavement or not, and its not
likely to even be slowed down a smidge by chewing one up and spitting
it out, bike and all.

It also takes a significantly longer time frame to come to a dead
stop. A time frame many riders evidently seem to be unaware of, as
they act like the oncoming vehicle is a 10 yr old on a skateboard.

How about you and yours simply obeying the Vehicle Code and not press
your luck playing Chicken with 15,000 lb moving mounds of steel?

problem is they have concealed and obfuscated for so long that, as a group,
they themselves are no longer sure of their goals. They are a collection of
wild-eyed splinter groups, all holding a grab-bag of dreams and wishes. Some
want a Socialist, secular-humanist state, others the repeal of the Second
Amendment. Some want same sex/different species marriage, others want voting
rights for trees, fish, coal and bugs. Some want cradle to grave care and
complete subservience to the government nanny state, others want a culture
that walks in lockstep and speaks only with intonations of political
correctness. I view the American liberals in much the same way I view the
competing factions of Islamic

To reiterate: bicyclists seem to behave as if the they are not
more subject to the laws of physics than they are to the traffic laws.
They're wrong on both counts. There are certain "objective realities",
comrade. Wanting a diagnosis of athlete's foot doesn't make the
compound fracture go away. Believing a truck or automobile is as
maneuverable as a bike is equally foolish.

We don't do that, and every reasonable, rational person
knows that it's a red herring to suggest we do so.

This bullshit about cylcists making life hard for drivers
is just too much!

Unless by "playing Chicken" you mean we have a presence
on the streets that compels your twisted psychology to
maliciously aim at us.

If you shoved your hate up your ass, it might return
to where it belongs. Harbour & keep it there, and
strive to not let it leak out into the world.

I hope you don't get involved in a single-vehicle
collision with a stout tree (where the tree at
least survives.)

Unfortunatly, all too many cyclists do exactly that. I attribute much
of it to ignorance, but a great deal of it to arrogance.

Running red lights, weaving in and out of parked cars, etc etc are all

Hate? Hummm disgust at buffoons is hate?

Methinks you doth protest way way too much. Afraid to look at your own
riding "skills", Id bet.

So far, after 15 million miles and a number of driving awards, Ive not
hit a tree. But Ill let you know when I do.

Be sure to carry your Organ Donor card in your personal effects
Someone will need it. Fortunately, they cant do brains yet..so the
recipient will be safe.

You're the driver who complains about being
"bullied" by cyclists.

I'm not complaining about anything. I can
right handily deal with the likes of you.

If "they" can't do brains yet, how could there
be recipients?

I see your question mark key is working all
too well, but your apostrophe key isn't at all.

Maybe I should carry a Keyboard Donor card.

That is obviously correct. If you guys said well WE are breaking off from

Which endeavors? Repeating the same prepackaged flames over and over.

I'm not sure I would refer to those as endeavors

Wow I am so glad to hear your accomplishment. I know you are an honest hard
working totally cool person so I always believed it was but a passing bit of
a thing.
My parents are just plain old I guess. I am visiting home this weekend. I
guess I don't really remember drinking coffee so much in the a.m. as lunch
time, when I really needed it. I guess I never really liked the coffee
taste, so I have switched to things that still taste good. Like Red Bull
(which most people don't think tastes good, but I like it). They've
marketed a lot of stuff since then so coffee is a rarity for me. Right now,
I have something called Enviga on my desk. It's a Nestea product. It turns
out I was not entirely wrong about the effects I was feeling in the
afternoon. There's a lot of studies that say that it increases blood flow
and is best taken in the afternoon. Apparently there were additive effects
realized from this for people who lifted weights, as I used to in those
days. Now, I'm just thirsty and green tea just tastes good whereas coffee
does not. my doctor has said that I shouldn't drink water without anything
in it, because it has paradoxical effects of dehydrating me if I drink too
much. I fainted once a few years ago because I had had more water that
flushed out all the salt in my system. It just happens that there are few
thirst quenching things out there that don't have some bit of caffeine in
them. I think caffeine will help me with becoming disciplined and hard
working like you



>Otherwise we would be stuck with the likes of you.
>


Me I inspired you. Wow. I can't imagine how that happened or what I said
or when but good for you. That proves what I know of you because you can't
get a endeavor like that while working unless I am disciplined and hard
working like you .

I find it very very affirming.
