    Passionately Curious – Taking Flight

    April 19, 2015
    by Passionately Curious, Paul Hofma, WB Column

    Well, that’s my article for today. Enjoy the rest of the week guys. I’m pulling your leg, of course. Today I’ll be taking a look into how the hell a giant lump of metal, weighing in at around 200 tons, can take off and just chill up high in the atmosphere pretending it’s a bird.…

    Writer’s Block Happenings: April

    April 8, 2015
    by Calendar, News, WB Happenings

    As I write this, a delightful ray of sunlight comes streaming through my window, caressing my face with its silken warmth. It’s official: spring is finally here! This is the last bit of motivation we’ve all been waiting for to go outside and do something! Wondering what it is that you could be doing? Well,…
