Congratulations again!

Yes I totally agree especially idiotic to be biking along with ear
phones! I see a person do that several times a week- along our little
highway. I honestly think "Death Wish".

I once read in the New Yorker about people walking through a hard part
of DC. It may have been an experiment, but what I took away form the
story was that, walk along as if you own the place --not sashaying or
anything. Shoulders up, head up etc.

Thanks again Kathleen.

Wishing you the best always
