Kevin has these really nifty shoes left over from our Disco Night. He proudly displays them in his office, in an easily accessible manner for anyone to use just in case they need a little…boost. Apparently, they’ve been collecting a bit of dust lately. Such a shame. This morning, Kevin decided to get those shoes strolling our hallways once again and offered up their helpful services at our Thursday Breakfast Meeting. Peter B. ended up as the lucky recipient (nominated by his cohort, Mel). It’s only been a few hours since he ditched his sneaks for these towering silver monsters…

The Clif Bar Ski trip was last weekend. 160 of us descended upon Lake Tahoe, CA, skiing, boarding, snow shoeing, ice skating, basically taking over Northstar in full force . In fact, at one point there were sixteen of us heading down the mountain together, at the same time, sharing the slopes with all sorts of folks, including a few boarders competing in the Vans Triple Crown. While the majority of Clifs-ters are skiers (as deduced from a chair lift ride this very day and up for debate), those boarders managed to wow some of our wool socks off. In…

It’s been a while since SR decided to throw a Waffle Wednesday. It's never easy to know when it might happen next.

Naturally, this obsession lead to the first ever Waffle Wednesday, which, despite the fact that the breakfast was declared as a long-standing event to occur the third…

It's not all that often that we get an entirely *free* day; in fact, every four years. How do we get a whole free day? Every year, we accumulate a few hours of time over the 365 days we spend on this fine earth (or is it 365 1/4 days every year); so each 1/4 day, over four years essentially adds up to one whole lovely *free* day. *Free* in the sense that we don't even really know its accruing and then poof, there it is! Or, at least that’s how it works in Cristen’s mind (as discussed this morning…

This is my new friend, "Doug." He’s a cameraman for the local ABC 7 News. He drove all the way out to our offices yesterday evening to film our hybrid and biodiesel fleet for a piece on commuter incentives. I guess folks in their office were inspired by the recent article in the Wall Street Journal and decided to come out and catch our green(er) vehicles in action. If you're local, you may want to keep an eye out on this evening's news; it's always a good time seeing friends on the tellie. He was only here for oh, maybe…
