Quote of the Day, III

"I'm OK except for a concussion."

Yeah, well, me too.

I post this as a sort of cautionary tale for blogfriendress Megabeth, who has gotten it in her head to bike to work. Here's hoping she has much more success in her effort!

Someone regularly gets on the peak hour train with a bike and it rubs against people.I want to ask him to just ride the blasted thing instead of taking up train space and rubbing dirty wheels against people.

Sounds like a real mental giant you got there.

I thought at first there might be a new market for something like a bike cozy for people who travel on public transit with their bicycles, but after a minute or two of searching, I found that these already exist, which means this guy's just being a twerp.

Megabeth won't have to worry so much about that around here--the big thing is not getting HIT by a train. Or a bus. Or a car. Or a motorcycle. Or a pigeon. Or a bum.

On a positive note, he now has a topic for research - "The Physics of Truck-Human Interaction and the Medical Problems Resulting Thereof"
