As some of you may know, I recently suffered a dramatic bike crash. (Note: In this context, the word “dramatic” signifies a low-speed, high-dorkiness incident.) In the tragic aftermath, I hit rock-bottom when I accidentally smeared some Neosporin on the couch.Hearing of this bad news, a friend charitably wrote to me:Your carrying on despite your life-threatening injuries is an inspiration to all of us. A small group of your friends is establishing an international foundation and a tribute bike ride in order to prevent such a disaster from happening to anyone else. Just the thought of what we hope to accomplish brings tears to my eyes.
While I was touched by this outpouring of support, I’m afraid that I really must cancel the event. Please rest assured that I don’t do this out of any misguided sense of nobility or martyrdom.Rather, I seem to have gotten better. (Go figure!)

I may just have to abdicate as president of your fan club now.
Well, in that case... the Memorial Tribute is back on! (Now will you reconsider?)
i'll be tying a yellow ribbon around the cherry tree for you
