I was watching a call-in show and a guy called in somewhat off topic promoting the website www.donatelife.net. It got me to thinking about the shortage of organs, tissue, and blood. Sure the donor programs are for after you die, but its something to think about. There are many personal and religious reasons not to do it, but if that doesn’t apply to you: donate life!

In the state of Ohio, and i’m guessing most others, the law says that bikes are to go with traffic and pedestrians go against traffice. This means bikes on the right, sharing the road with motorized vehicles, and pedestrians on the left.  The reason for this is because pedestrians can side-step out of the way of oncoming traffic.

Its simple folks: tell your kids, do it yourself, tell the neighbor kids. Its dangerous any other way. Helmets and all the other safety crap I see kids not wearing doesn’t matter much when the fundamentals of safe riding aren’t followed.
