I could almost point out each one and remember them in DOSiRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08406354869646971733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-7157801950117242832009-04-02T10:33:00.000-07:002009-04-02T10:33:00.000-07:00Not so fast, Chris :-)The Idaho Stop Law doesn't h...Not so fast, Chris :-)<BR/><BR/>The Idaho Stop Law doesn't help the belligerent cyclists who blow through stop signs or run red lights.

As for Weinhard, he may have been eccentric, but he was a darn good businessman. His heart may have been good, but it was his pocketbook that was foremost in his mind when he thought about piping beer to the fountains.
