Does this issue feel like an underwater adventure or a case of the bends?

We really dug your feedback on the last issue, so we naturally hope to continue the constructive conversation this go-round. Check it out in print or right here. Especially take note of the Kids & Families special section set up like a coloring book. What do you parents out there think? How about you crayon-lovers?

I'm personally a big fan of Leah Rule's opening letter (her debut!) about the beard phenomenon. This proves my suspicion that there are, in fact, awesome local opinion writers amongst us. So get out of the shadows and present yourself! Also note the sweet list of homegrown beards.

We're also interested in knowing what you think about the recent music layouts. We've opted for covering more things, but in smaller segments. Is it music to your ears eyes, or are your sockets bleeding?
