Funny you should mention that Tony. A few weeks ago my next-door-neighbor, a kid in his 30’s (comparatively speaking) killed himself on his motorcycle. It was said that he was not speeding, but rounded a bad curve which was difficult to negotiate.

Reminds us all that there are many things beyond our control. Of course motorcycles are not exactly risk-free. But suppose he had hit one of us innocent people during this crash....

" I had a few beers before doing my grocery shopping "

Whether walking or driving, that is a good way to trip and fall, or

have a car accident. Injuries can negate all the attention that we

pay to CR.
