Loving languages. Teaching, giving others the ability to share in the love of my life. Religion as language, as story.

@teamnike The NTC app was crashing a lot today. Hanging in the middle of a workout. I could exit and come back to the workout at the beginning. I closed the app and restarted. Same problem.
