With Gas prices so high, it appears that some Southern California moms resort to transporting their kids in a more gas conserving way. At least the kid is tied down to mom with a safety belt and wearing a helmet.

Ah. I remember when I was a youngun’ and my dad had me on the back of his Kawasaki on the way to grandma’s house.
I fell asleep.
Luckily for me, my father’s reflexes were fast enough to keep both the bike and me upright.
Um, wow….., I mean WOW!
It’s unusual to see women riding motorcycles, even here in LA LA land – much less to have a pre-teen female riding buddy-style. If I were that woman, I would want to cover her and the kid’s skin up a little better ‘just in case.’
This is not what I pictured when I think of home schooling.
Well, remember that wrapping ourselves is Teflon and airbags is a recent thing. Back when I was a kid, riding on the back with my dad was no big deal (‘cept the falling asleep thing). We didn’t wear anything except a helmet and shoes. I survived just fine.
I have the fond memory of riding on my friend’s WW2 surplus German-made Zundapp motorcycle – no buddy pegs and seated on the rear fender – no helmet and wearing a T-shirt. But in those days, before California became all lawyered-up and politically correct, you had the right to do stuff like that.
Oh – and I stayed awake. Fortunately, I survived . . .
Isn’t that illegal? I mean, if she wear to wipeout, just think of what would happen, she’d be alive, but in soooooooooo much pain. Yikes! On another note, you should all head on over to Jack In The Box today and get yourselves TWO FREE TACOS.
All you need is any gas recipt and you get TWO FREE TACOS. Easy as that. Head on over to: jackinthebox.com/twofreetacosday/index.php for more details.
Yeah, like I want to stuff my face with two tacos that have shells so greasy you can see the crap Jack puts inside ’em before you take a death-defying bite. See-through tacos – OMG!
Eat some carrots and celery instead. 😉
