helmet, why? because none of my hick-Pennsylvania cousins did and I didn't want to
look like a jackass.

I'm so disappointed these days that doing stuff is going to the freakin Mall or a
god-damn movie. Sure, me and my friend(s) do that sometimes, but we're usually
in 10-15 places when we're out. It's also sad when I road my bike, every SINGLE
day in the Summer, for at least an hour, in the freakin evening, and NO_ONE was ever
out. Hell, our Church Softball team had trouble getting just 9 people to show up for
games when there are over 300 weekly-active members! Just sad.

Start a trend - Go outdoors!
Going to the mall is the thing. But here people only go there when the weather is pissy if it is sunny and hot everyone is downtown. I remember riding my bike when I was younger with no helmet, but when I went to the bike track I would put it on because a light bike and air time don't mix with high across wind's.
