The double issue--my first issue-- of our quarterly newsletter ships today. We just got our copies delivered from the printers. Stephanie made the graphics look fantastic. I did my best to make the content live up. I am nervous. I am very proud.

Who has the biggest balls?
I just spent part of my luch hour ripping apart my car door panel to retrieve my driver's side window (held up with tape because apparently Honda driver's windows are all pieces of crap, and loosened by last night's tremendous monsoon), taping the window back up, and refitting the panel back on.
