Mr. Web Guy
I'm a dabbler. No simple descriptions pin me down. Much like your favorite all-you-can eat buffet, morsels of my past stretch on and on and on. It's inconceivable that all those different entrees and side dishes can create a cohesive menu, but, lo and behold, there they all are, lined up in hot trays awaiting consumption.
My childhood spanned the East Coast, from Tennessee to New England to Quebec, but I claim Philadelphia as "where I'm from." My high school years were spent in its suburbs and I attended university there and learned about Brotherly Love.
It's been a decade since I've called the sunnier neighborhoods of San Fog-cisco my home. I arrived as an Eagle Boy Scout/art school activist/son of a minister and have been transformed into an Ironman/yogi/ultra-runner/aerialist circus freak/knitter. For the past two years, I've swum with Tsunami, the nation's first (mostly) male synchronized swimming team. If I had more time on my hands, I'd brush up my American Sign Language, learn to play electric bass and make short films.
Oh yeah, I'm an Aries, too.
Ryan just showed me this awesome video from the road and 2 Mile Challenge. Makes me wanna ride. Have you been on your bike recently?
Do you read Grist? It's a feisty environmental news and humor site, that's one of my favorite reads. A few weeks ago, they included Gary in a list of 15 Green Business Founders with some pretty amazing people (many who inspire our work—like Patagonia and Interface). It's awesome to see how other food companies are working to be more sustainable, from treats and snacks (Newman's Own Organics) to yogurt and dairy products (Stonyfield Farm). Thanks for mentioning Clif Bar & Co., Grist!
This is from Linzi, who used to work here in Berkeley, but now works... well, you'll see: I used to work for Clif Bar on the LUNA marketing team before I moved back to my hometown of Napa Valley, CA. Since I don’t like to commute, I reluctantly left the amazing people, food and family at Clif Bar behind and took a job in the wine industry. I grew up here and I love working with the wineries and local farms, but I couldn’t help but miss my old friends back in Berkeley. Then something fortuitous happened—Gary & Kit decided…
In keeping with the last post featuring Ginger, here's what was happening on the other side of the office on this quiet Friday. -----
So, if you've been reading this for a while, you may know that I'm a synchronized swimmer. After 4 Ironmans, a handful of ultras and a little jaunt across the Sahara desert, I've turned my attention to the power, strength and intensity of synchro for the past four years. Like all sports, there's an element of risk. One woman on my team had a concussion, then, later in the same year, broke a toe. Both were a result of landing on someone after being thrown out of the water. On Sunday night, it was my turn to join the ranks…
A few weeks ago, Diana was interviewed about her job here as our Sustainability Manager on lime.com—healthy living with a twist. It's a short overview of some of the work she and the Sustainability team (including Ms. Cassie ) are doing—check it out! Nice job, Diana! -----
On Saturday, after swim practice, I headed out to an event I'd been meaning to go to for the past 5 years. The Hoe's Down Festival at Full Belly Farm. It was the 19th annual harvest celebration of sustainable agriculture and rural living in the nearby Capay Valley. The organic veggie box we get delvered to the office comes from River Dog Farm, another Yolo County farm just 6 miles down the road. A horse-drawn wagon shuttled me and Thao in from the parking area. Amy, Cassie and a small Clif Bar crew volunteered at the ice cream booth. I…
Not until I hung out with Adam at Bonnaroo—our moon-walking, bio-diesel-educating, cape-wearing friend—did I truly grasp what MOJO means: a whole bunch of creativity, a dash of crazy and a hearty lust for life. Our MOJO Bars may not help your breakin' skills, but they couldn't hurt. Every now and then we give away stuff on this here blog. Today, it's my favorite, the CLIF MOJO Bar—now 70% organic and full of heart-healthy nuts. According to those folks in white coats, nuts may reduce your risk of heart disease, in addition to the protein they pack. There are no trans fats or processed…
I've been reading Michael Pollan's book The Omnivore’s Dilemma. Never before have I been involved in a book that's drawn so much attention! Almost every time I bring the book to a public place, someone will approach me to ask about it, either they've heard of it, or just finished reading it. Regardless, they have something to say about it! I'm enjoying the book immensely and would recommend it to anyone—if you eat, then it will directly apply to your life! Pollan does a terrific job of investigating various styles of food production and processing, giving a detailed account of…
My mom's never visited Berkeley, but she's heard all about this place. Likewise, I'd guess the majority of you readers out there haven't been able to swing by. So, Mom and dear readers, here's a little PSA—a video office tour Gary made back in January. (6 MB Quicktime file) It was his acceptance speech for the Outdoor Industry's Innovator Award and provides a peek into what's going on here. The sound's a little funky, and no, Mom, I'm not in it. Enjoy the tour! -----
CLIFcast 12 - June 2006 31:25 Long time, no podcast, huh? The Tour of California podcasts back in February, were exhausting, so I wanted to take a little break. Three months was more than enough! First up, Cassie talks about Cool Tags and global warming. Then, Grady sits down with Zac from Hot Buttered Rum, a bluegrass group from right here in Berkeley, to discuss the band, biodiesel and Bonnaroo. Lastly, we switch gears and listen to highlights from triathlete Chris McCormack's night at the CLIF theater. In case you missed it, grab a locally-brewed organic beer and some…

I eat lunch from anywhere around noon to 4:30pm. Time gets away from me, or I'm in one too many meetings. Typically, I bring my own lunch, most often a frozen entree or leftovers. All day Thursday, I was looking forward to my spinach lasagna. 'Round 2:15, I bop out to the warehouse to grab it out of the freezer. It's gone. All that remains in there is a veggie burrito (also mine) and some organic orange sherbert (get name of company/link from Cassie). Just in case I had lost my mind, I checked the other two refrigerators on my…
Is it ironic that I meant to write this post about productivity, say, oh, nine days ago? Or have I just been so productive doing other things that it's only now bubbling up to my Next Actions list? Two Tuesdays ago, Tara (the CLIF dietitian) and I got to attend a seminar by David Allen, author of Getting Things Done. I picked up the book last year and dabbled with the system he proposes. Spending eight hours with the man himself drove everything home and inspired me to commit more fully to working GTD (you can figure out the acronym).…
CLIFcast 11 - Stage 7 41:46 Well, that took a little longer than expected. Sorry for the delay. There was one rogue piece of audio I wanted to make sure was in this podcast. The final stage of the Amgen Tour of California was a flat 10-lap circuit race in Redondo Beach over 76.5 miles. Before the race, Dylan spoke with former cycling pro Kevin Livingston, who's now with Medalist Sports. He talks about his role as competition director and putting on the event. Later, Dylan watches the race with Dave and Jim from Felt Bicycles from the VIP tent.…
Stage 7's CLIFcast will be coming later today. Audio file got here later than usual... lots of great stuff in there! In the meantime, enjoy these awesome photos from Stage 7!
CLIFcast 10 - Stage 6 14:09 The guys keep it short and sweet today, with three pre-race interviews: • Michael Barry from Team Discovery and Jim Birrell from Medalist Sports, part of the race management; • Tom Danielson, also from Discovery, shares the challenges of early season racing; and • Mark McCormack from Colavita-Sutter Home talks about how hard it's been. Dylan signs off for the day, uncharacteristically quiet and subdued, explaining how they focused on getting photos, not podcast material. He's in the hotel lobby waiting to head out to the Clif Bar & Co. beach house for a…
CLIFcast 08 - Stage 5 22:15 As always, Dylan starts out this CLIFcast with a few rider interviews before the race begins: • Aussie Nathan O'Neill from Team Healthnet shares his thoughts on the weather, the European racers and the race itself, • Glen Chadwick from Navigators Insurance talks about his break on yesterday's King of the Mountain climb, and • Freddie Rodriguez from Davitamon-Lotto takes us through the final sprint and his second place stage finish. But that's not all... Dylan gets the scoop from the people behind the cyclists. There's the Mark and Martine from the Toyota-United staff and…
CLIFcast 08 - Stage 4 32:58 In this CLIFcast, Dylan and Paul share their day on Stage 4 of the Amgen Tour of California. It's the longest day of the race, and our longest podcast! Before the race starts, the guys talk with Grady (also from CLIF) and contemplate going on a podcast strike. (What about the long hours I put in editing the audio together and putting it up here?) Thankfully, the recorded a great day's-worth over the 131 miles from Monterey to San Luis Obispo. There's two pre-race interviews, Jens Voigt from CSC and George Hincapie from Team…
CLIFcast 07 - Stage 3 30:33 After yesterday's 95-mile hilly terrain, the riders had a solid 17-mile individual time trial today. Our first four cuts today offer a behind-the-scenes at the Tour of California. Pre-race, we have Dylan riding down to San Jose with Hans Rey, and the stage guys who set up the finish line. Next, Dylan has (yet another) run-in with a police officer, Cha Cha Ramone. Don't worry, it's all OK. After the awards ceremony, he checks in with my boss, Michelle, who presented the Clif Bar & Company Green sprinter's jersey to yesterday's overall leader, now…
CLIFcast 06 - Stage 2 17:19 Today's hilly 95-mile stage from Martinez to San Jose was a treat for all of us at Clif Bar & Co. Instead of working this morning, we loaded into busses at 9:00am and rode out to Martinez for breakfast (mimosas and bloody Mary's included), a little stunt mountain bike riding and a whole lot of cowbell ringing as the peleton rode through town off to start their day. Unfortunately, we had to return to the office around 1:00pm, but Dylan was out on the course all day. While we ate and hung out before…
CLIFcast 05 - Stage 1 (part 2) 13:50
CLIFcast 04 - Stage 1 (part 1) 26:25 CLIFcast 05 - Stage 1 (part 2) 13:50 Dylan and Paul were so busy today, we had to split the podcast into two separate files! Part 1 is the pre-show. Dylan talks tactics with some riders before the race starts and, later, banters with some of the people behind the scenes. First up, it's Pete, the parking guy from the Team Intro party (CLIFcast 01). Jeff's exquisite driving of the CLIF truck almost got them into trouble last Thursday, but Pete proves he's a good guy. Dylan spots a Clif Bar & Co. Green…
CLIFcast03 - Prologue, San Francisco 12:35 And, they're off! Today was the Prologue to the Amgen Tour of California. It was an individual time trial, just 1.9 miles long with a steep hill at the finish. I this CLIFcast, Dylan catches up with some of the team managers before the start, including Frankie Andreu (Team Toyota-United Pro), Jonathan Vaughters (TIAA-CREF), and Ed Beamon (Navigators Insurance). If you listened to previous CLIFcasts, you heard Ben Jacques-Maynes (from KodakGallery.com/Sierra Nevada)earlier today. His twin brother Andy, who's sidelined and healing a shoulder operation, discusses strategy for Tuesday's Stage 2 course. We end this…
CLIFcast 02 - Pre-Race Burlingame Hotel 09:31 This one is all Dylan. Enjoy these two conversations recorded at the Burlingame Hyatt on Friday night. First, Dylan sits down with the race announcing crew. Paul Sherwin jokes about the economics of being a race announcer and his plans for race week. His comments are surprising, considering he'll be wearing headphones and attached to a microphone each day. Then, Dylan chats with Ben Jacques-Mayne, a local rider and part of the Sierra Nevada squad. As someone who grew up in the East Bay, he shares his insight into Tuesday's stage on his…
CLIFcast #01 - Tour of California Team Intro Party 16:08 Paul and Dylan headed north to Sausalito on Thursday evening for the Amgen Tour of California Team Introduction Gala. To download the podcast, click on the link above or point your podcast catcher to this blog's RSS feed. What will you hear? First, Dylan chats with race announcer Paul Sherwin. Then1988 Giro Champion Andy Hampsten shares his thoughts on the riders' motivation. Laura Charameda, from Team Swift, talks with Paul and Dave Towle about Monday's Stage 1. When the party's over, Jeff attempts to navigate the CLIF truck out of a parking lot,…
Your ears will never be the same... Paul (of the many beautiful Mavericks photos) and Dylan (a.k.a. Le Sensation American will be podcasting their adventures from the Tour of California all next week. The race starts on Sunday, with a Prologue in San Francisco. It's a 1.9-mile individual time trial that's going to be decided over the short and steep 250' hill at the Coit Tower finish. The following seven stages will take the riders over 600 miles from the Bay Area all the way down to Redondo Beach. Tune in and come along for the ride!
Paul took this photo from the media area, on the Air Force base. More to come... Update: the amazing photos are posted on flickr.com/photos/clifbar Photo: Paul McKenzie/Clif Bar
It's on! Today, 24 of the greatest big wave surfers are going to come face-to-face and attempt to ride some of the most dangerous waves in the world. The contest is called with 24-hour notice, anytime between January 1 and March 31, 2006. The Mavericks Surf Contest is happening. And, not surprisingly, there are a lot of empty desks here at the office and the biodiesel van is missing. Behind me, in pod1, Ricardo and Paul are absent. Next door, Jeff looks lonely as five empty seats surround him, usually occupied by Bryan, Chris, Grady, Lizzy and Elayna. It's even…
Snoring isn't something you'd expect to hear in a workplace environment. I've read a lot about forward-thinking companies that offer napping rooms for employees. As fabulous as this place is, Clif Bar doesn't offer that benefit just yet. (Though you can catch a few minutes of shut-eye at the end of a yoga class, if you're lucky.); But here in my pod/cubicle-esque desk area, there's the slow rumble of snoring. And, it's my own fault, but it's not coming from me. I've entered the hallowed ranks of puppy parenthood. Miss Janie Sparkles has joined my family, and therefore the larger…
So, this blog thing is OK, right? We blah-blah-blah about life here and you get to read about it. Pretty standard stuff. But, wouldn't you like to taste it, too? Besides being readers, you're eaters. (I hope.); Eating is what this office is all about. We have a pretty much endless supply (thanks to Chris T's tending) of bars and gels and things to satiate our stomachs should we get hungry. Erika and R&D share stuff they're working on in the kitchen. Just yesterday, I tasted two variations of my favorite MOJO flavor. So here's the deal: every now and…
This morning, the kids came in and paraded around desks, through the auditorium and into offices for candy. Some of us bigger kids dressed up, too! Here are a few photos of your blog authors. For more, look at our flickr.com page. Happy Halloween! -----
Catagorizing this as "office life" may be a bit of a stretch, but since there are three of us here in Poland from Clif Bar, it counts in my book. Grady (marketing), Cristen (finance) and I have spent the past week and a half in Gdansk, Poland working our butts off for Habitat for Humanity. As you may or may not know, we can do community service work on company time. Our Project 2080 donates (at least) the equivalent of full-time employee's hours to volunteer and community work. Fourty hours/week x 52 weeks = 2080 hours. People deliver Meals on Wheels,…
Gary's dad Cliff Erickson just turned 80 years-young and we toasted him with some yummy birthday cake and a rousing chorus of "Happy Birthday" by all 150 employees at last week's Thursday morning meeting. He's the guy for whom CLIF BAR energy bars are named. CLIF BAR is spelled with one "f" because when the bar's packaging was developed, it was felt one "f" just looked better. Over the years, Cliff has occasionally taken to signing his name as "Clif." If you've ever called our offices, you've heard him: "Thank you for calling CLIF BAR. This is Cliff speaking. No,…
My head's buzzing from twice my usual day's-worth of caffeine, and I'm trying to imagine life without KT. One of my favorites is leaving the roost (temporarily). We just returned from the Peet's on 4th Street for her last coffee run. After seven years, it's time for a well-deserved sabbatical. Three months off, paid. When I started here, we were in the same pod, my desk right in front of hers. I was the lone Internet person in a herd of grassroots marketing types. She manages the field team, providing their lifeline to our Berkeley office and honing the CLIF…
I'm out of here for a week. Heading to GA for a swim meet, where there'll be synchronized swimming along with your diving, water polo and garden variety masters (aka, speed swimmers). Cassie, don't be jealous that I'll come home with two gold medals, one for team, the other for trio. SF's Tsunami is unstoppable (until we go to the Hot Tomato Invitational in Sacramento on 7/30.) Y'all play nice with the Internet while I'm gone. And, please don't break the website!
Is this thing on? Welcome to my our little corner of the website to share/rant/jibba-jabber about life here at Clif Bar Inc. My name is Stephen and I’ll be your Web Guy. As omnipotent as Web Guys are, I’m gonna deign (look it up) to share this space with other shining examples of CLIF humanity. Generous of me, I know, but probably better for your reading pleasure. There are some killer people here who I'm honored to call my co-workers. For the past five years, when people find out what I do, the same questions always come up: • Is…
That feels so much better... Can you tell the difference? Don't my characters look all fancy-nice? Any idea what that picture is? It's a close-up of what used to be under the keys on my keyboard. Vile. I didn't realize how bad it was down there. I was slightly grimey on the tops of the keys, but this tundra of dust, crumbs and random hairs (I don't even want to know...) had set up a shanty town beneath my keys as I typed. I'm surprised this thing works so well. Thanks to a lull in my day, some paper towels…
Dylan: Those of you who have actually taken the time to labor through some of my lengthier BLOG entries will likely appreciate this one, cuz it's short. My 2 1/2 year-old son is a little motorcycle nut. I've owned a couple motorcycles, but sold them before the little dude was born, so I'm not sure where his interest in motos come from - maybe it's just a requirement for some little guys (and some big guys). I hail from a land where the thinking goes something like this: If it's got two wheels and can go really fast it's good. It can be…
Erika, but missing a picture: Often, when I tell people what my job is, they ask me (jokingly) if I spend my day tasting bars to see if they are good. Well, the answer to that question is, "YES! I spend a big portion of nearly every day tasting bars!" This is what we call the Clif Bar Inc Taste Panel. Anyway, the taste panel is something that I feel is very important, but I must confess, I get really burnt out on doing it. Typically, everyone (7 people) in the Research and Development and Quality Assurance departments tastes one…
Tara: To shower or not to shower? Next to when to shower, this can be on of the toughest questions facing a Clif Bar employee. A morning run & a session in the office gym can rolls into the workday – shower untouched – pretty easily. This morning, I had to choose a shower or weight room. No time for both because I needed to greet today’s company meeting’s guest speaker from the Santa Clara County Diabetes Society. Priorities people, I finished my weight room routine with 5 minutes to spare - he arrived at 8:45am – I spritzed…
Dylan: Some cool news here from the Giro d’Italia. Dave Zabriskie is a local transplant, originally from SLC. My teammate Jeff raced with Dave when Dave was just a wee little tyke coming up through the ranks of the SLC bike racing scene. A lot of folks recognized that Dave had some very legit cycling skills even back then. Last year Dave borrowed the spotlight in the Media Center during Tyler Tunes to speak about his first big career stage win at the Tour of Spain. Dave road for Postal during the last few seasons and is now with the…
Dylan: Have you heard the news? Looks like Clif Bar has put a team together for the Corporate Race Across America – which is actually only Race Across Part of America, as we’ll be starting in San Diego and ending up in Flagstaff. Looks like we’ve got a fine crew of lads willing to attempt this rather nutty feat – check out the cast of characters at http://www.raceacrossamerica.org/files/raam2005/riders/Team%20Clif%20Bar_2005.htm. Yup, somehow my teammate Eric and I got involved in the mix. Not sure if the others know that Eric and I can’t really climb and we’re not much good in any…
Cassie: Grady is a guy who works in marketing and he’s putting together our second bio-diesel mobile marketing tour. He needed to host our new biodiesel drivers for two days at the office, fully indoctrinating them into everything Clif. Grady planned a meet and greet and wanted to have snacks. I said I wouldn’t mind taking care of this part for Grady, so off I went to Berkeley Natural Produce (my favorite local organic grocer) and everything was fine until I opened the door to the company van. Everybody knows that at the end of last week, every Californian was…
Tara: Squeezing my lunch on a shelf this morning I once again moved aside a “low-carb” yogurt. Can you believe this?! Who thinks low-carb yogurt is necessary? Forget it…. I don’t even want to know. But really, how much longer can I ignore it? Somebody has been taunting me with this yogurt for weeks, like they are just trying to push the dietitian’s buttons. Of all things, why low-carb yogurt? Where did I go wrong? Doesn’t everyone around here know by now that carbs area healthy? First of all, low-carb is “soooo yesterday”. Hello my friends - whole grains and…
Last weekend, I took a little road trip up to northern California, to Humboldt State University. The motivation for the trip was mainly due to a juggling festival being held at the university, but the fact that it is in the middle of the redwood forests made the trip even more appealing! My husband and I are both jugglers, we mainly juggle clubs (they look like colorful bowling pins). Juggling festivals are a lot of fun - there are always cooky people there, especially when the festival is in Humboldt County, which is known for having a plethora of hippies,…
Mary Kate: This morning as I’m stopping and going on the freeway parking lot from hell, I had to close the window because I was behind a pick-up truck that had no muffler on it. I was fiddling with the radio, drinking my tea, and wondering why the freeway is always so jam-packed on Wednesday mornings. Is it because all those deadbeats who work at home part-time finally decide that Wednesday would be a good day to come into the office? I don’t know, I have nothing to offer here in the way of explanation. So, I turned on the…
Cassie: If you live in California, read this. It came from my very favorite City of Berkeley energy expert Alice LaPierre, the woman is a genius, I tell you. “PG&E has very quietly announced the return of their 20/20 Cool Summer Savings rebate program. All residential and commercial PG&E customers (a1 and A10 accounts under 200 kW Demand) can receive a 20% credit on their electricity portion of their bill IF they reduce their energy bills by 20% over the June-July-August-September period of 2005. That's a total of 40% off! All residential accounts are "R" accounts and should be under…
Dylan: Actually, I’m not a Little Tea Pot at all. Far from it. In fact, this entry has nothing to do with little Tea Pots. That’s sorta the point. You see, I’m trying to throw Them off my trail. If I’d titled this entry, "Escape Route,” it would have been all too telling. Sure, maybe the low-hanging poster of climber Steph Davis is going to cause folks to pause and wonder. They’ll ponder the reasoning in mounting a poster so low on the wall. I’ll have to say something like, “In Europe, everyone’s hanging posters lower – it’s the new thing.” …
Erika Last week, I went to a fun training seminar in Los Angeles. It was held in this great test kitchen, that was set up so that you could make just about any type of food. One section had a gourmet coffee set-up, with a machine that ground the beans and instantly made you an espresso or coffee drink! Another area of the kitchen was set up for making ice cream and other frozen desserts! There was another section for making drinks - set up kind of like a bar. The main section where we worked had mixers and ovens…
Mary Kate: I guess that everyone at work thinks there is maid service for the stuff they leave around, like the glasses, empty Fed-Ex boxes, the food and coffee spills in each of the break rooms, the peanut butter coated spoons they leave to “soak”, and the masses of moldy food and outdated yogurt containers stacked up in the refrigerator. Not to mention the person who was drinking a Blue Sky Ginger Ale, and chucked the can in the paper recycle bin!!!!! Hey, you are so busted! I once read an article in the Wall Street Journal, about the ubiquitous…
Tara: Too Nashville I clamored along with 4000 or so like-minded sports & nutrition junkies where we acted like sponges & soaked up all the significant & insignificant data we could get our hands on. Research is the essence of the nutrition headlines & guidelines that you read in magazines & newspapers; &, there is nothing like getting the science straight from the horse’s mouth. At the American College of Sports Medicine Annual Meeting that is exactly what you get, raw science from which I return to Clif Bar with & translate in applicable information. (My nerdy self continues to…
From Erika: Last week, there was a huge benefit dinner held at Clif Bar. I think it is awesome that we (the company) do things like this, however, for those of us who work in the kitchen.... it is kind of a love/hate relationship. For several days, our kitchen turns into chaos. This has been going on for 3 years now, so I have learned to live with it, but this year, we decided to get out of the office so we wouldn't get frustrated with all of the noise, smells, and traffic running about our office, the kitchen. For…
Just presented the blog to the Grassroots marketing group. We sure do love our meetings here. Often, I have so many meetings that I don't have the time to do what I said I would during the many meetings. Note to self: learn to say no... to meetings and more work. I swear, I've spent more time meeting about this darn blog thing than I've spent writing in it. Other than Swanner, I'm the only one intimate with the software. Thus far, I'm the only person posting to it under the guise of each individual writer. Need to empower the writers to do it…
Janet is the wellness DIVA here. It's easy to see how she more than merits the title. She's the queen of our wellnes program, champion of they gym, overlord of concierge services and so much more. But, like a true Diva, you don't want to get on her bad side. Check out this email she just sent: You said you wanted a climbing class. Some said it was probably the only workout class you’d attend here. I found an instructor, I asked you which days would be best for you. The majority said Thursday! Today is Thursday, March 3rd, the…
I am getting married in about 2 weeks, and I am going to make my own (all-natural, vegan & healthy) wedding desserts - tarts, to be specific. I have been experimenting at home with various flavors to see which ones work the best. Flavors like dark chocolate & mixed berry, Myer lemon creme with blueberry sauce, banana and mango. They are all turning out great.... maybe it will spark a new product idea?!
We like getting our heart rates up, taking a big breath of fresh air, savoring delicious food. But we also love telling stories and here's where we type 'em up. (BTW, it works both ways; leave a comment—please and thank you.)
