Cyclists are not bright themselves. I wonder - are you perhaps a cyclist?


I don't think he is, Jewdith.

Leave them alone, they're only trying to make themselves easier to
hit.

by blinding motorists so they cannot see them.

Every one I've seen I've thought was an emergency vehicle from a
distance, as the flashing light reflects off the surroundings like the
blue flashing lights does. Impersonating an emergency vehicle is
illegal.


And dangerous.


So when are they going to be made illegal?


I heard you the first time.
Beats me. Ask those damn' politicians.

Arriving home unexpectedly early from a business trip, the tired executive was shocked to discover his wife in bed with his next door neighbour.
"Since you are in bed with my wife," the furious man shouted, "I'm going over to sleep with yours!"
"Go right ahead," was the reply. "The rest will do you good."
