foxrocks I personally think a helment should be worn, in my opinion if you have to wear a seat belt in a car for safty then motorcyclist should wear a helment. To many people have lost their lives or major brain damage from not having a helmets.

Hiccups!

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 31 May 09

What are your hiccup cures? I've heard of the following: 1. Holding your breath. 2. Popping something to frighten the hiccup away. 3. Drinking water. 4. Opening your mouth. I usually just go for holding my breath.
