I have already found the Schott Glass and given them my customary $20 for their fundraiser charity to get a set of some of the best physical pun bits of swag I know. They make students happy for years to come.

The final lahar of CES and, incidentally, the very last of the BBotE I brought.

While it is always a pleasure to be the bartender and keep the green room side of the show going for @edzitron.com, it is time to go home and pet kitties. Until 2027!
