Now that's how you get home!  Fun ride.  I had some stupid teenagers yell at me.  They didn't realize they were quickly approaching a red light.  I caught them at the light and mysteriously their window was now up.  They're lucky I didn't hear what they said or I would have had a nice conversation with them.  Instead I yelled at them to keep their window up.  Then as they passed me again the window was down, and I yelled at them to roll it back up.

So just how closely do you have to work with your co-workers? I'm not thinking my patients would be to happy with me if I weren't showered and smelling good. I do admire you for riding to work though. I wish I had a shower here and I'd do the same. If I ever build my own office, I'm putting a shower in.

Some years ago there was an article about packing baby wipes if you can't shower.

From Merri on Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 15:16:06 from 207.88.76.69

showering is so overrated :)

Rhett - I have my own office. But I did go to lunch with the guys today.

Paul - That was back before they knew it caused cancer.

Merri - we can't all look as good as you when we're sweaty.

You've been biking a lot lately. Are you training for that, or is it due to the heat? Or just because you prefer it lately?

you should have flung a little "brow sweat" on those teenagers. that'll show em.

From Eric Day on Fri, Jun 26, 2009 at 11:40:51 from 200.77.42.213

LOL...like Allie's comment. That should have taken care of them.

Especially if it got in their eyes. Worse than battery acid.
