Big dummy?

... When I caught the early headline this afternoon that Big Ben had been in a motorcycle crash, I simply shook my head and proceeded to read the story.

Idiot is one word that comes to mind.

... I have good friends that ride motorcycles. That's fine, although you'll never see me on one of them in a million years. Still, my buddies at least wear helmets and try to play it safe ...

...Now as I write this post and the story is being played out again and again on tonight's news, it remains a mystery to me why on Earth you would risk your million-dollar career, your body, your life by jumping on a motorcycle ... and even worse, not wearing a helmet.
