I need to check with the team’s board members and see if I’m allowed to blog details yet. We’ve got a new pitmaster, and he’s as big a catch as getting WordPress as our main sponsor – as Don Cornelius would say, “a name you should know.”<\/p>\n Answer to the zebra question: Zebra stripes evolved to keep flies away.<\/a><\/p>\n Time for beer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here’s a question to start off today’s blog post.
