The gods were laughing today as they watched mortals trying so damn hard to be happy in the hours before un- took over. They shook the earth. Mmembers of the Blacktop MotorCycle Gang had to swerve around or jump widening cracks in the roadways as two new members landed in their midst:

Earlier today, at Gallery Connexion, Karen Ruet was a willing listener for a Random Act of Poetry (not to be confused with a BTMG "reading raid") by BTMGer Broken Joe. Tonight, absent though she was, Karen became a Blacktop.

A hearty welcome and clinking of glasses ensued before the merry band headed out lookin' for adventure . . .
