Age & slippers discrimination

In Ohio, (my home state) you can wear whatever you like, tank shirt, shorts and flip flops as long as you wear eye protection and have a license. Helmets required only for temps and under 18. Then again the rule of common sense applies and the choice is yours.

 

Your post is very well written, but what proof do we have that chosen leaders are verbal communicators and not readers?

I agree that leaders sometimes seem to be chosen for the wrong attributes - 'charisma' being a big advantage. But with the 'celebrity culture' there is a danger leaders will commonly be chosen due to exposure - it has already happened. People even talk of dim-witted 'Instagram' types as potential leaders (I mean the 'look-at-me' posers, not the readers).

But I wish you had not digressed onto the second part, about this Forum. Try to find its equal here in the Philippines and you will struggle. It is not necessary to moderate it to the point when anyone finding difficulties in expressing themselves clearly in the written word gets put off, especially those who do not have English as their main language. This would just reduce the value the Forum provides to 'newbies' finding their feet and the established (who by now probably have trouble seeing their feet!).

If it ain't broke then don't fix it.

 

Alternatively one can just skip through the posts one doesn't like...........

 

Why not legislate this for motorcycles and be done with it?

 

Have to read something before knowing what it says - unless from the title it is obvious.

 

I'd guess there'd be a problem at night, but I do apologize for thinking. Full steam ahead! Plate armor for the future of safety! Let's get airbags in this, stat!

 

Was there any problem going into Dumaguete from the south today

 

Metro Manila did not learn the lesson of Dumaguete. Which is, if you relax just a bit, thousands of people shout Hurray! and rush downtown.
