Default Shut Up & Drive

I've seen it all now. This afternoon my wife and I were in the cage and watched a guy pass us with his head all crunched over and his shoulder raised with a cell phone stuck between them.

Stupid is as stupid does. The only good thing about this idiot is the gene pool will take care of the problem sooner or later.

I know there are people who feel they must talk on a cell phone while driving a motorcycle but for God's sake don't do it this way. I would have laughed if he dropped the phone.

I have yet to figure out how you can talk on the bike. With the pipes, stereo, and wind.....just doesnt make sense.

Morons like this have always been around...cell phones just made them more visible.

And your sig is right...there may be no tomorrow. As a matter of fact, there may be no later today. Right NOW is all any of us have. Live it or lose it, IMHO.

Yes, nice to still be on the planet & have my wife to thank for whipping my azz to see the doctor. As you said, there may not be a later today - so hug the ones you love and the ones that pizz you off don't really matter & ain't worth your time. It's really amazing when you come to that realization !
