Well, I sure hope you and Karen will not continue to wear a helmet there Zdenko, 'cuz I have it on good authority it can cause...what was that again Ian?..."severe back and neck injury!

(YES IAN...I'M MAKING FUN OF YOU AGAIN!!!)

Look dude(Ian that is)...contrary to Kevin's idea that I think "Big Brother" knows best and that I think said "Big Brother" should make you wear a helmet...well, I DON'T!!!(Ya got that Kevin...I DON'T THINK THERE SHOULD BE HELMET LAWS...for adults that is anyway!!!)

NOW...about WHY I continue to "make fun of you" about this issue IS BECAUSE I LIKE YOU(and surprising I kind'a like Kevin TOO, believe it or not) and I'd like BOTH OF YOU to lessen your chances of protential HEAD TRAUMA if the unthinkable happens. And IF that happens I'd like you(and Kevin) to STILL have your friggin' WITS about you(and as I said, Kevin too) BECAUSE I like reading the stuff you guys post around here!(you Kevin make an especially good foil for me as I'm sure you've notices all these years around here)...AND Ian, your rationale for not wearing a helmet is BOGUS...plain and simple!

I can give you all the friggin' empirical and irrefutable data you'd ever want about this issue which shows the use of a helmet is FAR SAFER than not wearing one. AND besides, doesn't it make a little more COMMON SENSE that putting an item made of hard plastic and soft lining on that hard(but not as hard as you think it is) noggin' o' your would lessen the chances of this potential head trauma JUST IN CASE some idiot cager pulls out in front of you some day and that hard(but as I said, not as hard as you think it is) noggin' of yours hits that hard ol' pavement???

(and so, DON'T look for me to stop making fun of you in THIS regard ANY TIME SOON...and this goes for YOU TOO Kevin, you darn self-admitted "jingoist" you!!!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
