I do recall your affinity for Herbert Hoover but wasn't aware of his perspective on pancakes. It really makes you think. I mean, as you said, he was the greatest in terms of economic collapses!

Yep!

Hahahahahah!!!

It depends on whose Keaster is getting cut.

That's exactly what he's thinking

Not only whoopsidaisies, but also Oofty Boofty!

A fine tour, and a rigorous tour. I'm impressed you're planning to go back for more of it next year.

I've eaten a lot of delicious canned meat and freeze-dried meals in my days of backpacking, canoeing and cycle touring, but I'd have to be pretty hungry to dig into a package of mashed potatoes--even if they were truly "America's favorite."

I can't believe you quoted the great Calvin Coolidge again.
Coincidentally, just this morning I was deleting a bunch of old e-mails and I came across an exchange with a bunch of Hostile Actors. I didn't delete those e-mails, even they are two years old now. Instead, I re-read all of them. In one of them, you correctly attributed the phrase "welcome to the jungle" to the very same Calvin Coolidge. I can see that Calvin Coolidge is to you as Herbert Hoover is to me. More than once in my journals, I've mentioned how he presided over the greatest economic collapse in U.S. history. You might not know this, but in 1929, the esteemed President from the great state of Iowa rebutted Coolidge's claim.

"Waffles may be the glue that bind us, but pancakes are the roughage that UN-bind us. Plus, they taste better." -Herbert "Great Depression" Hoover

I can't imagine a better ending to this chapter of Mr. Grumby's Great Divide Adventure!

How tall was the owner of this bike?

I'm guessing at least 9 inches shorter than August?

Whoopsidaisies!

What's the difference between "keaster cuts" and "keister cuts"?

"guard-railyness"

I like this word!

And I will seek opportunities to use it.

So I guess sprinting is a prerequisite for Kindergarten there ...
