I am such a super wife. Know why? I encouraged Paul to blow off a bunch of home improvement stuff he needs to do so he could go on a motorcycle ride with his buddies all afternoon. Seriously, it was 73 degrees today! How many more 73-degree Sundays are we really going to see before springtime? I told him he needed to take advantage of the weather and go. So he went, and I think he’s glad he did! I noticed something that I never paid attention to before, though. One of Paul’s friends didn’t have a helmet on! What a dumbass! I love the guy, but he sure makes some ridiculous choices. My father-in-law cracked me up as usual - he said up at Sturgis, another of Paul’s friends wore his helmet all the way there, but left it on the back of his bike while they rode in town. He said he told Paul’s friend, “Hey, man, you’ve got two little kids and a wife at home, you’re living kind of dangerously there,” and when the friend blew him off, he said, “Well, that’s fine - you’ll just get hit by a truck and become a vegetable and then I’m going to come to your house and have sex with you, and all you’re going to be able to say is, ‘Ughhhhn! Ughhhhn!’ and I’ve always wanted to have sex with you, so don’t bother wearing your helmet.” Hee!

Pennsylvania changed their law from mandatory to choice….that bugs me…if a helmet can save you a massive head injury, put the thing on!!!! NJ is still law.
