Driving is dangerous too, but nobody is advocating that cars should be

I heard that President Bush almost choked on a hard pretzel a couple

people.

I like soft pretzels better, anyway.

Anecdotal "evidence" is not science, it is collecting stories which

Mikie did not report on all of the tens of thousands of mountain
bikers who safely completed their rides last week. That is equally
valid.

Happy trails,
