I wear a helmet for two reasons.

#1: I always have. Hard to break habits.
#2: It keeps me from getting sunburned on my thinly haired head.

Not sure if it still holds true but Missouri has a helmet law but no eye protection rule while Illinois has no helmet law but has an eye protection rule. I always thought that seemed odd.

I agree 100%
spending winters in San Diego and summers in Maine, I've gotten so used to having the helmet on in California that it just doesn't feel right without it when I'm in Maine even though it's not required. And yes, my hair has it's thin spots that allow my scalp to burn damn fast without anything covering it.

Wow - sounds like the best of both worlds... Generally speaking people here go to Florida in winter and stay home in warmer weather. I'm in Portland - let me know if you want to hook up for lunch or something while you're in state.

Hi carmine.  Can we safely assume you typed up that post after falling on your head wearing that novelty helmet?

That's funny no matter how many times I read it! I assumed that Carmine was using his smart phone/tablet to type that and was auto-corrected into incoherence. Jerry you da man!

I am laughing so hard I have people asking me if I am drinking.

Edit: Now I have everyone with me laughing... I had to explain what was so funny in the middle of a card game.

Mark, great invitation and talking points for a new member introduction! Well done, sir....
But I'm afraid Carmine probably doesn't remember much after he tested the novelty of his lid..
From the "sound" of it, he's likely staring at the microwave waiting for Wheel of Fortune to come on.
