I'm a shape-changer! Anxiety and depression since Syracuse have prodded my body toward significant change of form. Now that I'm back to biking most days, I checked to see how much my shape has changed. It changed by about fifty-to-sixty pounds. I hope, this year, to revert to a previous shape that was more conducive to long bike rides and mountainous hiking trips. Not to mention less pain in the knees and ankles.

My manager saw me using a slide rule and we chatted about them. He mentioned he had a couple that he'd give me if he turned them up. This morning, he gave me a Post Versatrig 1450 that he picked up a few years ago at a yard sale!

It's newer than my Post Versalog. The case is faux-leather instead of the real thing. But that leather case really needs some TLC before I can clip it on my belt and use it. The Versatrig also has a belt-clip case, and it's in fine shape except for being a little tight. I'll try and stretch it out a bit.

As were most Post rules, this one is made by Hemmi, a company in Japan, of bamboo with (I think) celluloid facing. The manufacture date is August of 1967.
