Alright, I just finished my biology test in no time flat. 30 questions in 15 minutes, plus filling out name and id etc... So that averages to less then 30 seconds per question. And I wasn't trying to get down fast or anything... it just happened. Hopefully I did alright considering I haven't been making it to lecture lately and I only read over the chapters in the book once. I'm terrible, it's my major, but I can't stand the beginning classes. I've learned this all in high school a gazillion times!
On a darker note, my Dad's band leader died yesterday. He was riding his motorcycle and the car in front of him stopped suddenly to avoid another car and he was too close... He flew off and sustained head trauma, wasn't wearing a helmet. He was unconsious when the ambulance got there and dead by the time they reached the hospital. It was his birthday too. God, what a shock. I won't lie though, the guy wasn't my most favorite in the world, but I wouldn't have wished him dead. I feel terrible for his wife and kids. And my Dad is pretty shaken up, he keeps trying to rationalize his ill feelings toward him... I keep trying to tell him he can't feel guilty for how the guy made him feel in life just because he is dead now, it doesn't automatically make him a saint. It just kind of smacks you in your face that once again, no one is immortal.
I'm never going to ride a motorcycle....
Remorseful Huggles...

I would have to say tough luck with the poor guy. My condolences go out to his family. But because someone else is an idiot and gets themself killed doesn't mean you should never ride a motorcycle. Motorcycles can be very fun if opperated safely. New technology like BMW's modified anti-sink front suspension and antilock brakes make going over the handlebars really difficult to do intentionaly. Not wearing a helmet or protective wear on the bike is also just plain dumb. Anyone who doesn't wear a helmet on a bike is a morron. You don't have to miss out on the fun experiance of riding a motorcycle because someone wanted to leave there head exposed to the world at 35mph or was dumb and followed someone too close. Just make sure you ride safe or ride safe with someone else. ;-)
Nope, they terrify me... No way, nadda, can't make me. I'm just not interested in it.
