James Caviezel was in a motorcycle accident outside of Leavenworth, Washington yesterday when a pedestrian whack-a-doo threw a bicycle in the path of his speeding Harley Davidson. The Washington State Patrol says the actor was wearing a helmet and suffered minor injuries when he crashed, but that the injuries easily “could have been a lot worse.”

No one knows why the man threw the bicycle at Caveziel, but police speculate he may be suffering from some form of mental illness. (Gee. Ya think?)

This is why you should never, ever put off doing anything (like sky or scuba diving, bungee jumping, or staying at the Jakarta Sheraton) because it’s too dangerous. What’s dangerous is going about the mundane business of living every day life, just so some nutfuck can throw his Schwinn in the street and rob you of the next 40 years of your life.

   Perhaps the best part of this story is that it happened in Leavenworth, WA, which is a town built entirely to look like a Bavarian village, and all stores/buildings must comply. Meaning they have a ‘Das Starbucks’ with a gingerbread roof, and all the residents dress in lederhosen.

   I’m not kidding. http://www.leavenworth.org/modules/pages/?pageid=47&path=47

     That is amazing. Maybe during this recession, people who can’t afford to fly can just visit there and feel like they visited Germany.

       Yeah, there’s a crazy town like that in Helen, Georgia that’s totally fake and very creepy! If I had to live there I’d be throwing my bike at people too. I feel for the young people that have to live and work in these places. http://www.helengeorgia.com

   Wow, he couldn’t look better even if it was a Madam Tassaud’s wax figure.

   I’m formulating a theory. Perhaps the motorcycle was taking away from their image of being a Bavarian village? Wait, is Schwinn Bavarian?
