I think my next NaNo will involve...FAQ for Merchandise http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/off-topic/threads/49650 Pearce_Kilgour The two extra straps that come with NaNo Logo messenger bag... how do these hook up??? Do they get drunk on tequila and have a night of regret? How does these hook up? Seriously, is this the backpack option? Where and how do these connect? karalianne said not to put this in the reference desk, but I'm quite sure that this would be documented someplace.

I've been trying to figure out that myself. My husband suspects it's something to do with attaching it around your waist when you're riding a bike, but that strap doesn't attach that way. I don't know. If you figure it out... let me know.

Besides using it as a possible plot device for next NaNoWriMo. I suggest time travel. You actually put them there yourself, to find in an earlier time. Discuss.
