Kick Out of Life

A few weeks back I went out on a warm summer night to watch my colleagues play kickball. Yes, kickball, the game you used to play in the neighborhood when you were a kid. It appears adult kickball is the latest trend among urbanite workers, who are putting away their softball bats in favor of the original, bouncy, red rubber ball. Three Maxwell team members and some of their spouses have been having a ball all summer in the Northwest Kickball league. I was jealous! Out of a team of 14 people, made up equally of men and women, 8 people head onto a baseball field where the game is played much like the favorite American pastime. While most people play pretty loose, there are a few that take it pretty seriously (but I won't mention any names, Bruce...) -- maybe that's why they won!
Here's Bruce in the key role of pitcher and his fiance Eryn, looking mighty strong on a break from playing catcher.
