Yeah, I was talking about that news with my father in law about the irony of that news.   Motorcycle guy protest against helmet laws but dies due to not wearing a helmet.

Just sad to see that it cost him his life to learn that mistake. I am sure when he realizes.. he'll be saying.. D'oh!

Right,
It just goes to show us that we can protest a "rule" without breaking the rule.
They all could have worn helmets along with wearing a sign protesting them.

We can protest forum rules when Craig gets on our case and yet we can respect the rules while we learn that they do have a good, well reasoned purpose and that Craig is really a sweet person regardless of his responsibility. [smile].

This reminded me of Jim Fixx, the long distance runner and author who advocated the health benefits of regularly jogging, who, ironically, died while jogging.

Although, I know there is no real "irony" in any of these stories, because our Creator appointed them to their lives and their endings, however, I do see this as just another lesson in humility to those of us who remain.
