A Super-Duper Powerpoint Festival

Now RantWoman has done it. She has gone and gotten herself invited to present at what, judging by the credentials of the other presenters,promises to be an ultra-enhanced, super-duper, extra juiced-up full-bore, large-scale Powerpoint festival!

The Super-Duper Powerpoint Festival is not until mid-April but last week's email comes with a request to please send one's paper as soon as possible by next Monday. Okay. Probably can do actually. RantWoman would not do it until the last possible minute anyway, so let's see what miracles can be wrought up-front.

Start with the requested speaker bio. Probably considering the crowd, RantWoman should not introduce herself as an opinionated, granola-munching tree-hugger with a colorful bio who tosses around phrases like "Blowing Up Puppies" as if they were sports scores. After a small amount of consideration, RantWoman actually came up with a suitably stiff but tolerably comfortable description of herself. Now it's on to figuring whether to perpetrate more Powerpoint herself or to do something more participatory. Stay tuned...
