The problem is partially that many people are as thick as a post, but we knew that before the pandemic. IMHO, the core problem is that society has created a scenario in which the general public have lost trust in the authorities. I think we should focus on fixing the underlying issue of many political decisions (including those pre-COVID) being made based on political whims rather than what is best for society. Stopping anti-vax propaganda may help the immediate problem, but it’s just a bandaid on a gaping wound. – Ryan Hellyer

I think this was my fourth bike after a piece of crap plastic thing, a trike, a stupid bike with trainer wheels on it and then this mighty beast of a machine, the HMX-500. I loved this bike. I got into lots of trouble for not cleaning it, but I was a kid, so why the heck would I clean a bike? I didn’t care what it looked like. I just wanted to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible. I never cleaned my cars either 😛 After I upgraded, mine was sold to some kid who had their bike stolen.

Picture is stolen from somewhere on the internet. I don’t have any pictures of mine unfortunately.

The boat the Smolenski side of my family traveled to New Zealand on, was called the Reichstag. It left Rostock in Germany in the late 1800’s.
