I have been out drumming up potential Team Members to take a stake in this http://www.cancerribbontattoos.org/ project and doing so has involved additional hours of conversation and what-not.

Guys, hello. Today IS 9-May, exactly ONE month from my last check-in blog post. I just cannot go to bed without at least sharing *some progress although, in fact, it's just after 22:00.
