• Favorite Story to Share: Many years ago when my wife and I were still dating, I made the mistake of half-listening to something she was telling me while the TV was also on. There was apparently a Sun-Maid Raisins commercial playing because when she asked me if I heard what she said I answered with “something about raisins,” which wasn’t well received.
