By the way, this is my 300th post!

      There's no need to get personal. I am trying to lose weight . . .

    I had a history professor once who dismissively dismissed the Danes, along with the Dutch and other third tier Euroroyals, as "bicycling monarchs", on the theory that once a royal got around town on a bicycle, the mystique and glamour of royalty was forever lost. However, this picture would suggest that the Danes have more style than perhaps Dr. Jackman gave them credit for.
    Congratulations on your 300th post, by the way.

    Hmmm … "dismissively dismissed" seems a tad redundant … or really disparaging. I really must proofread more.
