Did I mention I designed, filmed, edited and produced a little instructional video on how to tie a bow tie recently? I figured every bow tie company had to have one, so I went ahead and made my own for Bowtiful. It turns out there were A LOT of videos out there a lot like …

Patagonia Nano Puff Jacket
So maybe a year and a half back, Yvon Chouinard’s book-Let My People Go Surfing-popped up on my business-books-to-read radar. I read it, loved the story behind it, bought into the ideology entirely and recommended the book to a whole bunch of friends (who I hope have enjoyed it too). It’s a different kind of …
