The boss is chillin’ down San Diego way and so things in the office feel a bit less stressful. Not that Bob’s a tyrant or anything. The fact that he put together most of the paper on the weekend and then got out of the way made production day go rather smoothly.
Meanwhile in the news…
Walden says he wants to drill off the coast. Never mind that it’s against the law. Oh, but all the money we make from that will go to projects that the “greenies” like. As someone who cares about the environment; why do I feel like I’m getting screwed…but at least he’s fixing breakfast?
Lot’s of response to the Garter story including this letter. Folks who talk about what it’s like to live in a small town should keep in mind how rumors work. “I know someone who said she talked to someone who knew exactly what happened.” As we’ve demonstrated in this paper, rumors are seldom even remotely related to fact. Oh and rumors don’t stand up in court.

We’re still brainstorming ideas to make this web-site a profit-center instead of a community service project. We’ve changed the front page ad to an appeal for piano donations for the schools. A great cause; if you have an unused piano you could get yourself some good Karma by letting the kids use it. We’d get some good vibes by helping it to happen.
We’ve added a link to Digg on our story pages. “What is this Digg thing” you ask? Well the short answer from their website is: “Digg is a place for people to discover and share content from anywhere on the web.” Obviously, most of small town stories are not going to generate much interest in the wider web-world but the next time an RV destroys a pizza parlor…we’re ready!
Try to keep kool!
