Hearing protectors work

Hmm. I once lacerated a cornea putting on eye protection.

Well, switch to hearing protection, dammit!

Seriously, how did you manage to do that?

Several years ago my son and I were riding our motorcycles off-road, and we stopped to look at some mushrooms growing next to the trail. He got down on his hands and knees for a closer look--unfortunately, the ground was soft, and his kick-stand sank in, so the bike fell on his head. He was not hurt, because he was wearing a helmet--"Saved by the Bell."

Glad to hear you are alright. A while ago I found that shooting arrows through a chainlink fence can produce similarly strange phenomena...thankfully no damage to persons nor property.

Say, are you the high powered air rifle Quackenbush?

No, I believe you're thinking of Dennis Quackenbush, in Missouri:

I guess there wasn't mushroom for parking?

:-p

Groan!

Righto, thanks for the link.

I have had a more embarrassing one. I parked on a sloping car park...facing downhill. Everything was OK until went I to remount the bike. It waited until I had my leg half over the saddle, then rolled forward off the side stand and fell over away from me. The carppark was crowded as well....ahhh youth!

Imagine a _world_ where Nature's lights are obscured by man's. There would be nowhere to go. Or wait a while. Then you won't have to imagine.

I dropped mine once by accidentally greasing a bit of my tire instead of my chain. 2 miles an hour in front of my apartment building. Karl
