  Hee hee hee! Yeah, I did feel kinda like a stupid dork with that
yarn taped to my hood, and I did get some strange looks, but I consoled
myself with the fact that I was a lot faster than all of those people,
even with the additional drag of the yarn. :-)

Like a yellow ribbon for desert storm, red ribbon for aids, blue
pieces of yarn taped to the hood for, ummm... The International
Coalition to save the R/T.) :-)
