Colin Newman	Colin is executive editor of OKC.NET. Born in ABQ, NM 1982, he quickly realized his mistake and moved to OKC in 1987. He spent most of his high school years skipping class and reading books. In 2001, he went to VCU in Richmond VA for art school, hated it, and moved home. He went to OU and then UCO, and majored in the following subjects: Journalism, History, Education, History Education, Political Science, and Geography, somehow finding time to marry a smartypants math teacher in 2006. He went to culinary school from 2008-2010, while simultaneously going blind from a degenerative eye disease. He has since received two gently used corneas from two different dead people. In 2010 he started OKC.NET and met his son Elliott Marshall Newman. 2011 was comparatively low key and uneventful.	See all 68 posts by Colin Newman

When not wrestling bears for sport, he tries to plan his future, which he hopes includes dabbling in film, comics, novels, and sarcastic t-shirt slogans.

Jordan Bayhylle	I'm from the delightfully small and boring town of Stillwater, Oklahoma. College dropout? Yes. Play in a band? Yes. If you don't know by now, the band is DEERPEOPLE. Like everyone else in the "frre" world, I'm really into music, movies, and food. So much in fact, I will not rest until I find out a way to involve myself in those three activities and ONLY those three activities.	See all 2 posts by Jordan Bayhylle
