Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

The best part of my day occurred about an hour ago. In the midst of doing a bunch of draining administrative details I found out we have two more joining our team. That’s a total of 8, in case you’re keeping score. We’re well on our way to the goal of 20+ […]

Am I That Ungrateful

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007
