Thank you...thank you...I would just like to thank all the little people (Danny Devito and Rita) who helped me get where I am today.

Thank you so much for the sheep reward! Never have I seen such fine sheep before! What lovely rumps they have! Quick! Get my oversized rubber boots, lad!

I look around me and everywhere I see....debt! Debt on the truck, debt on the SUV, debt on the Bandit, and debt on the house in which we are sitting.

My son , here , is wondering about his legacy and I spread my arms wide and I say, "No worries, son, one day, all of this......(debt).... will be yours!"

Words alone cannot convey his reaction!

I think its a little "too colorful" but my concern is with the crack. Is the helmet going to be safe?? did it crack because thats what helmets are supposed to do?

I think the only thing that's cracked is thee goofball who posted the picture. The helmets being sold are all supposed to be new (better be, I went ahead and got one-- NOT THIS COLOR -- as a spare) and the reference to it being cracked was a joke. I think these helmets are about 8 years old, but new, and the price reflects that.

I got the Shoie today! Really fast shipping and the helmet looks great!

My only other helmet (other than hockey) was a GMax so you know what I'm coming from! The Shoie feels absolutely tremendous! The fit is superb; nice and snug without being too tight and what I like most is it is deadly quiet inside. The Gmax would roar all the time - sometimes I left the strap undone as that seemed to make most of the noise!

The helmet actually looks better in person - it's mainly black with hints of red and there's no pink! It's FUCHSIA!!!!

So it looks quite manly.

You have a hockey helmet and wasted money on something else? Wow, they must pay you guys better than OUR public school teachers get!

The one I ordered was this:

Why I am throwing my hand in with you so the rest of the board can start making fun of me as well is totally incomprehensible.

PS: DId you really get that purple helmet? I thought you were trying to get a red jacket to go with your red bike. What exactly does the helmet match, your eyes? And you really need an XL helmet? Must be all the brains....

I really did get it!! Would I lie to you??

Of all people!

I tried to switch it for that red and black tiger stripey one but they didn't have them in XL.

Can't seem to find a red jacket to go with the bike so here's the fashion plan: black leather pants and jacket and boots; candy apple red Bandit; yellow and black joe rocket gloves; black and fuchsia and red helmet!

Now if some cager says they never saw me comin' I can kill him legally right there on the spot!

Hey, Sven! We got ripped! That Snell sign on the front is actually a dead bug streak and then the word 'Nell'!!

It's short for Nellie McCormick - she works in quality control at the end of the line!

And the DOT?? You guessed it! Dot Smith - works at the cafeteria!

Bast!rds!!

Oh great. Now we'll talk like we are deaf and raised by a woman who had a bunch of strokes and can't talk. You know, like you do already.

I buy everything in black and silver, so other than this helmet, everything from gloves to tailbag to helmet to backpack match and will go with any color bike.

In a couple years the '90s will be "back in" and those graphics will be super cool. You'll probably be able to sell them and turn a profit.
