go looking for trouble, trouble looks for me, and sometimes for those
near me.

Hey, Donkey Hotay. Fidel Castro finally resigned, now Raul is running
the country.

With any luck, you can pedal your bicycle back to Havana soon.

Do ya think Raul will end communism in Cuba, or is he going to be the
new Lion in the Jungle?

I'm waiting for Bush to resign too. His brother is better, I think.

Cuba will never amount to anything good. Too far from Europe and too
close to, you know... 😉

He's an old lion himself, but you see a lion for what he is. No
camouflage like Castro who's more of a fox. Only hope is the Banana
Revolution.

I've been saying for years that criminal drivers are the real
terrorists. Your chances of being killed or maimed by a speeder or
DUI are a thousand times greater than by some mad bomber. Americans
are such idiots for buying into this arab terrorism [censored].

My family have been a victim of both. I had a cousin killed on 9/11, and his
father was killed by a mindless driver who ran a red-light. I only have to
know that the first one exists. The second, I have to worry about, and watch
for on a daily basis. Especially when I'm traveling on 2 wheels.

There's no consolation for the victims of 4 wheeled-terrorists.
Victims just make it to the horror show (the 6 o'clock news), at best.
And not even the word "accident" does any justice to their plight...

(letter to Lisa, author of 'It's No Accident: The Real Story Behind
Senseless Death and Injury on Our Roads'😉

Dear Lisa,

David Townsend, Tia's father, gave me a copy of "It's No Accident"
this spring, nearly a year after my son Dominick was hit in a Seattle
crosswalk. Your book told our family's story and the stories of so
many other families of pedestrian victims - from the devastating news,
to the insurance companies, to meetings with the local county and city
prosecutor's offices.

Your book helped me understand that $490 fines and no drivers
education or loss of license for the drivers in these deadly crashes
are the norm. That deadly crosswalks like the one where Dominick was
run over frequently are left by the cities with no lights, no traffic
calming, no sign of the lives lost there. Before I read your book I
thought it was perhaps just our family or just Seattle and King
County.

We are so blessed that Dominick lived and is recovering steadily -
recovering from traumatic brain injury is a long long road. We are
appalled to see all the families we know now who have lost a child or
are trying so hard to restore their child after being hit by a car.

Lisa, thank you for putting together the stories and the statistics
into such a powerful book. I have bought copies to give to some of our
community and state leaders. I hope that your speaking schedule brings
you out to Washington. I think it would be so very important for our
local and state leaders to hear from you.

So, why don't you take your Revolting Bananas back to Cuba where you'd
be closer to the action?

What's the point in complaining about traffic conditions *here* while
your cousins are living under the communists?

In Cuba they don't let you talk like here. No freedom of speech. Here
the case is different... no democracy.

I'm complaining about the sad state of affairs in the world. Why
should I worry about the puppet, when we need to change the puppeteer?

OK, breaking the news (no need to watch CNN) to you. What would you do
if Nader took up the issue?

(addressed to one of Nader's workers)

Hey, Melanie, I've the issue that can make Ralph stand out before the
other look alikes...

Please read this:

This is very much Nader's tradition... TRAFFIC SAFETY, the issue of
the century!

My family have been a victim of both. I had a cousin killed on 9/11[01...]

The convincing evidence for the responsible parties for that event has
never been presented to the public.

There are non-Arab parties who have benefited greatly from the events of
September 11, 2001. Who is to say that they did not orchestrate the event?

If you believe that government has told the complete truth (as they know
it) about the events of September 11, 2001, then P.T. Barnum has a name
for you.

Alas, too much evidence has been destroyed for the truth to be
confirmed, which was a deliberate decision made by the Cheney/Bush
administration.

That's my point. Most of us have never been endangered by a terrorist
but we are endangered by by criminal drivers every day. And yet which
is the idiot american most concerned with.?

- I think yep, we American idiots. We American idiots who have a
Democratic Republic so vibrant, that we have a woman running for
president, in a country that less than 90 years ago didn't even allow
woman to vote.

We American idiots who once as a nation divided, warred over the issue
of race and equality, now stands ready to test those convictions and
possibly elect an African-American to the highest office in the land.

We American idiots. Where a POW, upon returning home from another
senseless war, chooses to continue his service to his country as a U.S.
Congressman and possibly President of the United States as well.

We Americans idiots. Whose ideals are embraced by the worlds
oppressed and scorned by those who fear it's truth.

*If* any of them get in... you may have a point.
Several other countries have already *had* female leaders.

Which is why I think all people who can, should ride a M/Cycle to
prove they can drive adequately....failing the test can mean a failure in a
close casket.....not much to add to that...

Although some need a 4 wheeler for cargo space, 90% of them don't,
and gobble up the city's parking spaces horrendously. In my City, the meter
maids and insurance companies dump on the M/C guys big time, in a vain
attempt to cause as much damage as possible to the environment and keep the
accident flow coming their way.....

A trike is usually the limit for me, since it's easy to parallel
park, and can carry a heftier cargo than a plain MC, but the prices start at
$15,000, but a sidecar Scooter is a better investment, depending on the
method of add-on/removal capacity.....
