I got run over the other day.

I got run over the other day. I was delivering the mail on Broadway and I walked out of a building and onto the sidewalk, and I hear, "Look ou.." and bam! Some Jack ass on a bike hits me. He says something like "watch where you're going" and rides away while I scream "Get off the sidewalk!"
Now maybe I'm wrong, but isn't the sideWALK for people to walk on?
I am increasingly having a problem with cyclists in town. Don't get me wrong, I think riding a bike is great exercise, a great way to get around, and then there's all that bull and smug self-satisfaction about saving the environment. But it's high time for a crack down.
Which set of rules apply to cyclists? Are you a vehicle or are you a pedestrian? It's time to decide, and start living by those rules. I see cyclists ride to the front of the intersection at a red light, and then when the light changes they want to hog the entire lane and hold traffic to their 15 mph speed cap. Then you have two people riding next to each other, one in a bike lane and the other in the motorized lane of travel, doing ten mph, chatting with each other like they are the only ones in the city. I can't tell you how many times I've entered a four way stop intersection, after waiting my turn, only to have some punk barrel through without stopping.
Have you ever noticed that when there's a bicycle vs. car accident on the news the automobile driver is presumed guilty? I'm tired if it. If you want to travel at more than walking speed, and you're going to use wheels of some variety in order to do so, follow the laws or assume the risk.
And if you want to be on the sidewalk, then get off and walk.

Tupperware Super Mystery Party

Okay folks, here's how it's going to work. Everyone who attends the party and purchases a minimum of $35 in product (plus tax and shipping) can enter their name into the host drawing. Once all entries are in the bowl, one name will be drawn and that person will be considered the host for the evening, and will receive all applicable benefit from the show that evening, including free products, 1/2 price items and any other promotion associated with the duties of host, with out the work!
You must attend and place your order at the show in order to be eligible for the host drawing. You can enter the drawing more than once. Here's how, and it's very simple. For every $35 in product you order or purchase from stock, you get one entry into the drawing. Anyone who spends $100 or more will receive an additional gift when their order arrives.
If you are unable to attend the party, you will still be able to place an order, and receive any other incentives associated with the Tupperware party not including the host drawing.
If you have any other questions you can contact me directly at andy@andymetcalf.net.
Hope you can come and participate in this event, as it will be one for the ages.
