GUEST BLOGGER FORD CHURCH: ALLOW MYSELF TO INTRODUCEÖMYSELF
Itís another day in paradise here in beautiful Boulder, Colorado, and I am excited to introduce myself as a guest Blogger on the infamous Beli-Blog. Yes, ladies and gentleman, the man, the myth, the legend, Mikal Belicove, has asked me to write a few words on this thought provoking Blog to which I am deeply honored. I have to admit that I am new to the "Blog" scene. Although, Blogging is kind of like a new pair of underwear, and I am slowly getting used to it.
A little bit about myselfÖI grew up in New Orleans, LA and moved out West to attend the University of Denver. I then became introduced to the outdoor industry by one hell of a model American - Mikal Belicove. Fast forward about five years and several jobs later, and I am now a full-time graduate student in the Master of Arts Program at Prescott College in the field of Adventure Education. I am currently completing my thesis on outdoor education and social capital, and I will be piloting a program this October called the Community Adventure Program (CAP). The CAP uses outdoor education to inspire community involvement among high school students.
So that is what I am up to in life and I look forward to making more posts on the site. I hope to incite enlivened discussions on current events, environmental issues, politics, etc. In the meantime, I will leave you with this thought: why must we "break glass in case of emergency?" Doesnít broken glass in fact potentially cause another emergency that would most likely involve stitches? Wouldnít a simple latch or lever suffice? Hmm, inquiring minds want to knowÖ
Have an extraordinary day everyone!

It's not just potential, it *does* cause more (bloody) accidents. Never underestimate panicky people.
I'm not sure if I quite follow your analogy of blogging to underwear, but they both are somewhat intimate. But how would you put a blog in the washer?
SYA, if you'd ever worn tighty whities...you'd understand. Women's underwear is comfortable...within reason, almost from the get go. New tighty whities are just no good out of the packaging.
To all other readers. Ford Church is the best thing to happen to this blog since it's launch - a great event indeed. Ford, I'm happy to see you as a guest blogger on the growing Beli-Blog! As a tribe member might say, "Shalom."
I'm for the 'dental floss'. No VPL...and that's a good thing. Plus, with thongs you never have to dig for wedgies, right? Not to mention...they're just dead sexy.
