Hit Coffee is the story of Will Truman (trumwill), a southern transplant in the mountain west with an IT background who bides his time substitute teaching while his wife brings home the bacon. This site is a collection of reflections on the goings-on in his life and in the world around him. You will probably be relieved to know that he does not generally refer to himself in the third-person except when he's writing short bios on his web page.
Greetings from Callie, Arapaho, a red town in a red state known for growing red meat. And from Redstone, Arapaho (Aw-RAH-pah-hoe), a blue city with blue collar roots that's been feeling blue for quite some time.
Nothing written on this site should be taken as strictly true, though if the author were making it all up rest assured the main character and his life would be a lot less unremarkable.
This website is maintained by Guy Webster (web), who also contributes from time to time. Web hails from the midwest and currently lives in Truman's home city of Colosse, Delosa. He works as a utility IT person at Southern Tech University, their alma mater.
Also contributing is Sheila Tone (stone) a West Coaster, breeder, and lawyer who has probably hooked up with some loser just like you and sees through your whole pathetic little act.

I would have told the student to major in animal husbandry because that was a suggested major for me at a North Carolina school when I was a potential freshman.
When I was applying to film school, the registrar told me that the film school was full, but I could major in animal husbandry until there was an opening in the film department. When I said I would just major in communications (radio and television), she said, again, I should major in animal husbandry because the communications slots were filled. I finally said forget it and went to another school where we weren’t required to declare a major until sophomore year. Incidentally, I majored in English and now work at a national publication.
To this day, I can’t help but wonder if any animal husbandry majors are working on Oscar-winning projects or reporting the news at CNN.

It never even occured to me to ask my school what I should major in.
