After years of riding in the car with my head bouncing around like a cantaloupe attached to a piece of string cheese, I finally consented to using a head-strap to keep myself upright. I’ve always resisted such a device because I thought it made me look like an ICU patient out on a day pass. But after using it for a day, I have to admit that it is nice to not have my head flop on my chest every time we have to make a sudden stop on the freeway. And it kind of makes me look like a kung fu movie star, which might come in handy the next time some hottie in a Corolla pulls up beside me.
