Raised Eyebrow Time

As heroin is so cheap I will have a packet of 20 of the blue stuff thanx. Still not sure I could handle the fugn Moody Blues though. The Moody Blues FFS! I know, I know it sounds better in 5:1 Surround Sound while stoned out of yr gourd ..*yawn*®

Bike Helmets

 'Statistically, if we wear helmets for cycling, maybe we should wear helmets when we climb ladders or get into a bath, because there are lots more injuries during those activities'
Two points of view:
A sensible approach and a load of bollox and cyclists may I take the liberty of pointing you to this brilliant invention for safer cycling.
...while studies have shown that some motorists drive closer to helmeted cyclists, than unhelmeted ones

Hmmm...

Much as I can appreciate Wilson/Hakim Bey's T.A.Z./Back to 1911 it does have to be said that I have serious misgivings about the man. When you know this it does give a whole new meaning to the words on this album...

Helvetica Bike



Helvetica Bike! Why? “Because we love Helvetica. We love swiss spirit. We like precision, purity and clarity. And Helvetica, the swiss typography, represents this complete design-lifestyle.” When? “In 2012, fifty five years after Max Miedinger’s design was born. A good moment in a world crisis situation to recognize the potential of basics.” Who? An original idea from Borja Garcia Studio
