Dad and I are going for a ride tomorrow. It will probably be the last hoorah for motorcyclist. So, the meetings will have to wait until spring.

Our day long ride could consist of circling the neighbourhood.

I totally get your point. And yes, Sir, I certainly do care about education not only for our youth but adults as well. Generalizations can be a nasty/tricky thing.

I suspect you may be correct. FWIW you did a great review.

Is anyone else concerned that Blake didn't even have to think about the answer to this question?
On the other hand, as Minister of Security . . . .
I'm just glad he's on our side.

Terrific answer Blake. I was thinking more along the lines of layers of absinthe and torsion form concretions of hyper-augmentation, but I must admit to your answer being more tersely cogent.

Congratulations on the ham ticket. I did the ham thing years ago.
Made it over to Michigan and now I am blissfully back in the center of Cheddar again with a stop near home. Mrs. Oldsaw picked me up and we had a nice two hour lunch ;)
Next load has me heading out east to Hatfield, MA. They will be blessed with some of Cheddar's finest cheese.

Thanks Dennis! Glad you get to see the Mrs. every now and then. I'm sure over-the-road trucking isn't your first choice for 2010, but I'm glad you're doing well.
