Have you ever seen a staff or volunteer symbol or ambassador badge and wondered "Who DAt?" Welcome to the interview series that's hittin' DA streets to find out more about these very deviants. [EMOTE] Featuring a Wild Card question which is selected at random from a pool of questions. If you have a suggested random/fun question to add to the list, please feel free to comment here. [DEVIATION] Ahoy! If you'd be so kind, what is your preferred name? Also, do tell, what is the delightfully devious story of your username?  I like Joe best. A few people still call me “Joey” but only those people are still allowed because they are grandfathered in from my childhood and, yes, one of those people is my mom. My legal name is Joseph, but it’s not my favorite. I mean, I guess I could legally change it to “Joe” but uuuuuuggggghhh seems like such a drag so here we are 😃  I’m not sure it’s a delightfully devious story, but “vagrantscout” has been my handle since 2003 when I was the community

The setting alone set the tone: a 150-year-old blacksmith forge, alight with a gentle garden, wooden architecture, and an air of reverent history meets modern warmth.
