A man gathers his three teenage sons out in his backyard, next to a burnt down shack. He says to them, “I know one of you burned down the outhouse. Which one of you did it?”
The sons remained silent.
The man said, “My sons, I want to tell you the story of George Washington. He chopped down his father’s prize cherry tree. When his father asked him about it, he said, ‘I cannot tell a lie, father. It was I who chopped down the tree.’ Rather than punishing him, his father rewarded him for his courage in telling the truth in difficult circumstances.”
“So I ask you again, my sons: which of you burned down the outhouse?”
The middle son came forward with his head hung down, saying, “Father, your story has shamed me. I was the one who lit the outhouse on fire.”
At this point, the father picked up a branch and started after the middle son, who ran for his life! As he ran away, he shouted over his shoulder, “But father - what about George Washington and the cherry tree?”
The father replied, “George Washington’s father wasn’t IN THE CHERRY TREE when he chopped it down!”

The real reason why no one likes those push-bikers...
Although there are very few cycle paths like that where I am, luckily I live riverside so have a nice long traffic-free path to cycle along. That way I don't upset all those patient, law-abiding car drivers.

Neat...
Here we have entitled individuals celebrating their one-person demonstration against all, everything and sub-events...
That form of self-endangerment must give kicks of some sorts...
Some even try that on busy motorways now... great... just great...
Do you guys drive on the left side because you are required to carry swords?Ha! You call that a busy motorway, Martin? This is a busy motorway.
Why do the British drive on the left?
Have you ever wondered why the British drive on the left? There is actually a real historical reason for this;…

An old man and his wife of 60 years are sitting on their rocking chairs on their porch of many years.
The wife gets up from her chair and smacks her husband hard in the face to where he falls our of his chair.
As the old man gets up and gets back into his chair, the wife sits back into hers.
He asks” What the hell was that for?”
She states “For 60 years of terrible sex.”
The old man sits and thinks for a bit, gets up and slaps his wife hard enough for her to fall out of her chair, and he sits down as she gets back up into her chair.
She asks “What the hell was that for?”
He states “For knowing the difference!”

I'm serious, kickstand on left and mounting from ze left originates in medieval Eurasian cavalry... your sable/sword would get in the way when climbing on that oat gasifier...
