Final Approach
A couple of months ago I posted on the red board about a guy that I have worked with for 30 years being killed in a motorcycle accident. Well, now one of our press room guys that I have known for 20 years at least has sustained life threatening head injuries in a motorcycle accident. The last I heard was that if he shows signs of surviving the head injuries he will loose a leg.
To those of you that ride, for God's sake please be careful out there. And to those that don't, please be mindful of motorcycles on the road. And to everyone, don't assume that the other guy is going to do what they're supposed to do. Many moons ago when I used to ride, I had a few close calls, and was once snatched of of my Kawasaki by a telephone wire that was knocked down by a drunk driver, but riding today is different. With cell phones, those little personal electronic doo dads, and worst of all, the lack of personal discipline behind the wheel, it's a whole different environment on the roads these days.
So just everyone please be cautious when driving, and watch out for the other guy. Sorry for rant ya'll but this is painful watching people I know and care about getting hurt so bad on motorcycles.
