Ah, you're right... I am confusing my terminology.  Bonding is a way to 
tie two very short distance links together for increased bandwidth. 
This would be a layer3 link aggregation.  I am not sure what tools you 
would use to do this aggregation.

Thanks for keeping me honest while I try to wave my hands to distract 
everyone from the details.

The higher-level point is what I was trying to emphasize.  You'll need 
some sort of meeting point that will act as your internet-facing IP and 
dual-pipe packet mixer.  (waves hands)
