To the Editor:
I would like to address this
statement to Billy H. McCullogh
Jr. and others who share his views.
First off, I have never even
bothered to consider the possibility
that a bicycle is any match for a
car
1 know the bicycle doesn't have a
chance ? that's what makes it so
much fun! I have thirteen wins, no
losses, and one tie for an openseason
record of 13-0-1.
HecK, it I nad a "transfer truck"
I would liave an undefeated record
of fourteen victories.
Until recently, I hadn't considered
touring West Columbia.
But now that you mention it, I'll
start looking for bicycles there.
Look for me. I am the driver of a
sports car with two bumper

I do follow people's examples. I
happen to think that Hitler,
Berkowitz, and Manson were great
men. I also don't happen to think
that I am selfish. I don't pick on
just one bicyclist, I go for them all!
The only place I'll be locked up is
in my car, in which I lock my doors
and buckle up for safety. As for
being labeled a "psychopathic
killer," I am insulted by the use of
the term "psychopath."
I may not be playing with a full
deck, but I am not a "psycho." I do

If you really wish to "help" me,
you can do one of two things.
Either wear dark clothing at night,
or send a certified check (no cash
or stamps please) to me in care of
the Gamecock.
Seriously, I don't see why there's
a big fuss over my actions. More
than 22,000 people die each year
due to drunk driving, and
thousands of deer and other innocent
furry critters are
slaughtered ofi our highways each
year (whether they are in season
or not).
There are many more serious -
issues at hand here. So what's a
