gang-3-160.jpgBlog Guy, I have very poor vision, but my life’s dream is to join a motorcycle gang. Do you know of any that would make an allowance for bad eyesight?

I think so. It would appear that some members of the Bandidos gang have a similar affliction. You can see them here, apparently holding documents very near their face in order to read them. But the bottom photo suggests that if you have other social skills, like hand-shaking, you will be accepted.

Thank you! I’ll contact them! Do you know if they’re taking new members?

Well, if they ride on the German highways while covering their faces like that, I’m guessing they have quite a few openings.

I’m guessing Brangelina and Angelad. Well, maybe just John and Yoko… Ok, Kermit and Miss Piggy?

The “bandidos?” I’d hide my face too.
