I think it's important to point out courtesy and honesty, when applied unexpectedly, can have surprising results.
But, who really cares? If I have to be nice to get it, I don't want it. I bet the Germans have a word for that special flavor of sour grapes.

I'm working hard to shed ~20 lbs before then. Although I have no doubt I can finish, for once I would like to do so without felling like a sack of fecal coliforms.
Fecal Coliforms look like this:

Here is what I typically look like after a century:
Squint your eyes, and you can see the uncanny resemblance.
Here is what Somer Cooper looks like. Note the difference:
I am currently shopping for rear panniers that work well for commuting. For the few of you you with long memories, I used to commute with a backpack. The backpack worked well when I had a fixed based of operations where I could keep towels and toiletries, and where the dress code was not so strict. However, after changing jobs, things looked grim.
Now I am at different offices every day, but I noticed that most of the large office buildings are equipped with showers and locker rooms, so if I can pack everything I need and keep my "Business Casual Clothes" fairly wrinkle free, I can begin to get some commuting miles in again.
I need to be able to carry my laptop and assorted tools of my trade ( Remember the dentist in Marathon Man? ), and detach that bag and carry it into a clients office without looking like a pin head. The other bag needs to be able to carry clothes and toiletries so I can sneak a shower and then dress and look presentable.
The most important part is the bag that I can detach and carry as a briefcase/messenger bag. It must be cool, to reflect my cool business like manner. It must not look like bike geek wear.
I'll let you know what I find.
Back to the Raven Rock Ramble. I'm thinking I may be able to live webcast some or all of it, with interactive conversations possible. I need to test this out a bit and will let you know, but it may be kinda cool. It also may be boring. Like this post is becoming.

Thank you for your comments, you simpering fool. Now, await your destiny. Or have a cocktail, something fruity, maybe with one of those little umbrellas.
