When Taylor Gourmet Deli first opened in Bethesda, I was very interested in giving it a try. It had an industrial look with open-air walls and buckets hanging from the ceiling. Unfortunately, I wasn’t alone and every time I went there, the line was too long for me to grab something quick and go back to the office. I eventually tried it out and the first thing I noticed was that the bread used for the sandwiches was great. Once in awhile I would go over and grab a cold sandwich and they were good, but I wasn’t raving about Taylor to anyone.

Then it happened.

Late last night before I went to bed, I heard the reports that Lance Armstrong was going to stop fighting his doping allegations and would be stripped of his seven Tour de France wins. This news made me really sad. This question of ethics is huge for me and it made me wake up quite a bit sadder this morning.
