6. I learn something new every day.
"poker run" is now part of my vocabulary.

7. Now I get it!
I sat and looked at your post for a few minutes before I realized what you were talking about. Can you tell I was once a teacher because I said "single file"?

8. I had to dig a little deeper after the excellent "sand people" crack.
Yeah, I do associate "single file" with teachers.

10. Patriot Guard Riders, perhaps?
Did you just have a funeral for a soldier in your area? http://www.patriotguard.org/

11. Too late for Laconia.
There's usually a rally in Waterville Valley too but I don't know when. We used to collide with rally weeks when we camped and hiked in NH.

12. Bike Week is in June.
But the "Patriot Guard" thing is possible. There was a truck with flags sticking out the windows behind the line of motorcycles. It's getting hard to keep up with the war casualties.

13. Might be a national meet-up thang.
I saw a bunch of Harleys gathering together in a large parking lot a couple blocks from me this morning- last time I saw them gather there it was Christmas. There were several hundred of them.
