But I have a friend who'd a trauma nurse in Indy who calls them donorcycles.
As a rule (which I know you know), that's because people aren't riding with helmets and protective gear on. Which isn't to say Bad Shit can't happen to someone who's properly dressed.
If I didn't live in a big city like Chicago, I'd probably own a motorcycle.
See, that's why I love my bike! Parking is so easy, and I'm much more maneuverable. Also, I love riding around SF on my bike.
I actually wanted to take my bike up to Seattle for the F2F, but she's not in good enough shape to make that trip. Neither am I, frankly.

Yeah, my best friend is a bigwig in the organ donation area of healthcare, and always calls bikers without helmets donorcycles. She says that without them, organ donation would be WAY down. (Also people who ride in the backs of pickup trucks.)

I can totally see owning a motorcycle in San Francisco. My big fear would be riding on Chicago-area highways.
ION, I should be working, instead of looking at ads for sailboats. (I'm considering buying a sailboat to live on - I just discovered it's possible to live on a boat near Chicago all year round.)

While it may be possible, it's definitely not something you would want to do in the winter.

Well, some people do. But yeah, heating can be an issue....
This is cool: Big Cats and Pumpkins
If you recall the kitten eating a melon video, you won’t be surprised at how much the really big cats at Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, Florida enjoy pumpkins and other gourds, both for playing with and for eating.
Scary flu news--someone at my office has been confirmed with H1N1! They've been quarantined and haven't been at the office since before they got it, so we should be fine here.

Good to hear that you are not all doomed.

A water company is selling spray bottles of de-ionized water that they claim will fight the swine flu, which I think is ridiculous. Apparently it has magic properties, because one would think soap and a scrub would be more important in the keeping hands clean thing.
