| Evel, what was your first job? |
| My first job was delivering milk for Manny Lizac's Southside Dairy in Montana. I was about six or seven years old. No, I didn't deliver the milk on a motorcycle I wasn't old enough to. Manny let me deliver the milk where the bad dogs were no one else wanted to risk themselves like that. But I was just a little guy and I got along with the dogs alright.
My second job was for his brother Eddie Lizac at Southside Standard service. My third job was working underground in the copper mines for the Anaconda company, mining copper. After that I went into the United States Army.

| My friends like to rollerblade without a helmet. I think they're stupid, and they can get hurt. How can I tell them to wear a helmet without them thinking I'm a loser? |

Your friends are stupid. Pros wear helmets. I wore a helmet. Why shouldn't amateurs? Tell them that. You're not a loser, you're a winner, and don't forget it. |

Please note: Tripod, like most citizens of the Spaceship Earth, is in awe of Evel Knievel, his life, and his hard-earned position in American culture. However, neither Tripod nor its parent company, Lycos, Inc., necessarily share, espouse, or agree with the viewpoints expressed by Mr. Knievel, or any other Tripod columnist. (While we're at it, and to be perfectly candid, we are also fairly certain we don't agree with most of the viewpoints expressed by our high school teachers, parents, parole officers, therapists, and career bureaucrats employed by the United Nations.)
