When I was learning to drive many moons ago, my late father had this piece of advice for me:
"Always stay two jumps ahead of the traffic", in other words, anticipate what might happen.
Wise words and good advice from a driver of 40 years who never had an accident.There are a lot of unwanted, unloved bikes out there - go on give a bike a good home

LOL! I almost used this one recently (well, I guess I'd be calling myself...) A stock person in the local Whole Foods clobbered me with a door (I wasn't standing in front of it - he swung it way past "open" and seriously did knock me down). As I picked myself up off the floor, he said "you shouldn't have been standing there - didn't you see the sign, you idiot." Yes, the manager did get a call explaining the situation and suggesting that perhaps that employee needed a little more training in the personal skills department. Originally Posted by Deanna

I can't believe the employee called you an idiot. What an idiot-that should get him fired, or at least on probation.
