THE ARCADE As I imagine it, those who work in construction probably find themselves in many interesting places and spaces. And with a little imagination mixed with the need for breaks, those spaces provide unique opportunities.

In this video, a trio of construction workers found themselves in such a space and did not miss their golden opportunity. What, you ask, was their amazing get? These men found the perfect spot to play a vigorous game of human whack-a-mole.

Yes, what youre imagining is what exactly happens in the video, if not better. Two men pop up from giant holes and a third man uses a rubber mallet to try and hit their heads, wisely covered with construction helmets, before the two human moles can pop back down again.

If that imagery in action doesnt tempt you, please know that the sounds of seasoned construction workers giggling with pure glee, both on and off the camera, is alone worth watching the video.

Still cant get behind the video? Then maybe youll like this adorable rendition of kitten whack-a-mole or a kitten playing whack-a-mole. Yes, there is a difference.

Grant funding totaling $93,458 has been awarded to the Georgia Motorcycle Safety Program (GMSP) by the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety. The approved funding will be used to increase motorcycle safety awareness and outreach by encouraging all motorists and motorcyclists to Share the Road.

“The need for motorcycle safety programs is greater than ever, and this support from GOHS enables motorcycle safety programs and impaired riding initiatives to reach riders and non-riders alike” said Commissioner Spencer R. Moore. “Thank you GOHS for helping (the Department of Driver Services) and GMSP educate and encourage all Georgia drivers to ‘Share the Road.’”

The grant allows DDS to further develop the Motorcycle Safety Outreach Program by continuing to fund a position to promote state and national safety initiatives. The GMSP outreach coordinator researches, coordinates and helps maintain an adequate presence at industry events, local schools and colleges, regional meetings and festivals to increase awareness of motorcycles on the roadways and provide the most current information on motorcycle safety initiatives.

Visitors to a GMSP event display are also encouraged to sign up for regular newsletters which provide additional safety information, as well as review the motorcycle safety message on other social media platforms.

GMSP regulates motorcycle training for new riders, as well as seasoned riders, who want to learn how to ride a motorcycle legally and safely. The program is based on a continuum of learning and therefore offers three entry points to rider education.

Students participating in the Basic Riders Course do not need specialized motorcycle equipment, as the GMSP provides both a motorcycle and a helmet to class participants. Upon successful completion of the course, participants receive a 90-day license waiver card that exempts them from both the written and on-cycle skills tests needed to obtain a Class M license in the state of Georgia.

Please visit the DDS website at www.dds.georgia.gov for many online services including the convenience of enrolling in a GMSP training class and accessing many licensing services.
