Sorry you were disappointed. We polled everyone on our team here and there were clear winners. Cannot argue with Democracy, right? That said, it was tough to choose winners because all the stories were so varied and interesting. I think everyone has a different perspective on who should have won. Hope you understand. Hey Guys.

I felt like the picture of the girl wearing the yellow Adidas shirt was profiled too much (and her being the typical attractive girl probably got her more votes too).

However, I am slightly disappointed in the bag biographies winners. My sister Victoria Keefer was super deserving of a new Timbuk2. She was a walking billboard for you guys. She took her bag everywhere. She even talked friends and family (including me) into getting our own Timbuk2. She's had a bit of bad luck lately and she didn't even tell you everything that has happened to her in her story. She was married in early April and two weeks later, her husband left for army boot camp. She hasn't seen him in two months and had to write him to tell him that their car was broken into while she was mountain biking with my father and her best friend Isabel. The theives took everything including her wedding rings, her cell phone, her camera, her shoes, her raybans, her husband's gps, her husbands oakleys, her jewelry, and anything and everything that she kept close by. And what she said when she saw the aftermath was "They got my Timbuk2." That bag was and held her life. I promised that I would help her get something back. And right now, none of us can afford to get her another Timbuk2. So we all commented on her story hoping that she would in fact win. We all kept our fingers crossed and checked back everyday for any news that our Tori could start collecting new memories in a new Timbuk2. To know her, would be to know how deserving she is. She would do anything for anyone. She would've made you guys proud. I ask that you consider helping her out in any way possible. I would do anything for my sister, and right now, my heart is breaking for her. Thank you for reading Tori's story, Darah First, I would like to say that I am a loyal fan of Timbuk2.
