Have I Been Cursed by NorCo Council Members?

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
This post shouldn’t make me laugh, but it did. I know all about the clear skies and then the rain. You take care because Northampton County needs your reporting and Council invested a lot in their Bernie voodoo dolls.
ReplyDeleteKeegan certainly is mean enough for it. I swear every once in a while I see her flying on her broom late at night.
ReplyDeleteI guess at 67 I shouldn't start riding a bike then.
ReplyDeleteYes! You should!
DeleteAlso, glad you had no major injuries.
ReplyDeleteBernieOHare to 2:10, you can fall doing anything. I live with seniors and they fall getting off the shitter. Exercise makes it a lot more fun.,plus if you lift you are far less likely to break anything.
ReplyDeleteFace it, Bernie. Nobody likes you. Not even your assigned guardian angel. I bet even he has to go to therapy after watching over you. Apparently, this mishap is a sign from above for you to amend your ways.
ReplyDeleteStay healthy Bernie. Maybe switch to a tricycle.
ReplyDeleteI used to do cartwheels and summersaults. Now I trip and fall putting on my underwear.
ReplyDeleteBernie did you have a Biden and I see it is the left arm too?
ReplyDeleteWe love you Bernie. Anyone who is active in the outdoors, including crazy cyclists, will take a fall now and then. Talk to your hunting buddies. Some of them even fall out of tree stands.
ReplyDeleteWhy do I have visions of Joe Biden whenever you mention bicycles?
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better Bernie! Remember, if they all hate you then you’re doing a good job!
ReplyDeleteBernie, the bicycle god (or better yet, God) is trying to tell you something (probably many things). What’s coming through clear to me is that maybe a stationery bike is in your future.
ReplyDeleteBe careful out there, Bernie! The people of NorCo need you. The Morning Call has abandoned their coverage of anything in Northampton County that is north, east, or south of the Bethlehem city limits. The Express-Times can't have more than eight reporters who cover county, municipality, and (non-sports) school district news. WFMZ does a good job, at times. But, we need more people like you to report what's going on!
ReplyDelete"Why do I have visions of Joe Biden whenever you mention bicycles?"
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to him happened to me a few times. He fell bc he had straps for his feet on his pedals to give him more power. Many cyclists have special shoes that fasten to the pedal.
I used to have straps and junked them bc I fell quite a bit when I had them. Now it is less frequent.
Yes, I injured my left arm like Biden. I also injured my left leg, left shoulder and left hip. In my first two falls this year, it was the right side, so now I have matching injuries.
"What’s coming through clear to me is that maybe a stationery bike is in your future."
ReplyDeleteI dislike them. They bore me. I actually think an elliptical is more like riding a hybrid or mountain bike than a stationary bike is. I love being outside as much as possible. We like to talk and argue about freedom. I am never more free than when I am on my bike. And on the bikepaths or streets, no matter what someone is riding, we are all the same.
Safety first, Bernie (for other bikers and you as well).
DeleteAnother point about Biden. It is extremely embarrassing to fall off a bike. I am fortunate that no one sees me when I do something dumb and pay the price.
ReplyDeleteEasy to go down on a bike, a lot easier than people realize. Recover quickly Bernie.
