LOL - I don't think that's going to happen.  The ponytail has been around 
for nearly 20 years.  I have considered cutting it off since leaving 
Utah, but that day hasn't occurred yet.

I'll probably just wear a tie-dye bandana and a shirt with a giant 
spider on it, so that way I'll probably be pretty hard to miss.

Probably a black xkcd shirt of some sort - I'm partial to the "I'm not 
slacking off, my code's compiling" shirt with the swordfight panel on the 
back.

doesn't make false positives too likely.

I'll also be the one sporting the blond (nearly white, these days) 
ponytail. :)

And a good time was had by all!  I do wish I hadn't been quite so late - 
or had known about the bike race taking place that made parking a bit of 
a pain, but that was a lot of fun.

Definitely need to find a time to do that again, schedules permitting. :)
