a bit different.
< rant >
ok, so I know I've been off the rock for a week, and out of touch, but it turns out that 3 person moto accident in waienae... I know the biker. coworker/apprentice classmate, and a dude I've ridden w/alot, as well as his wife and a couple of their friends.
that said, sure, he was going home from work that morning, and I suppose it's possible to be... not as alert... as you'd like to be early in the morning and just off of work.
but.
he does ride/drive like an asshat w/frequency. so I really don't know how I should be feeling about this whole sitch.
:-\

Re: a bit different.
Is that the guy who ran into the two pedestrians in a crosswalk? After they got off a bus?

Re: a bit different.
Ugh. i missed this story. Damn my sexy ignorance.
That said, if he rides like a doof, there's no problem with being pissed at him about it. Doesn't mean you have to hate the guy, just his bad habits. I think.

Re: a bit different.
don't get me wrong, if he walked away, I'd be the first to brain his dumbass w/my ballpeen hammer.
but he didn't... what spurred this on was a post by his wife on myspace tonight, thanking everyone for the prayers and well-wishing. so yeah, it sucks for pat, and the obvious distress it causes wife and kids... but...

Re: a bit different.
Sucks for him and family. Yup. How are the other two doing?

I think that is the important question. If the dude was riding like an ass, and injured someone because of that, then I think I would feel more compassion/interest for the innocent party, and not the asshat...

Re: a bit different.
haven't heard anything since that newspaper blurb online... I do hope they're ok.
pat? well, yeah, I feel bad. but 7 of 10 of me says he can suck it. my opinion may change if I find out the details of what happened...
