Reply #43: I feel pretty lucky

My "local" is owned by Lakeway Publishers. I worked as a special promotions consultant for one of their other papers a long time ago and had a terrible experience as that one was owned partially by a private party, but even then the editor was very progressive as were most of the writers. The sales dept. just sucked.

Our local is pretty cool. I met the editor (I think he's still around) once and he practically begged me to write some LTTE. They print all opinions and I rarely find any typos.


They also run Weldon Payne and he is a treasure.

This week's column is "Forget Al. What About all those scientists?" A snippet:

"Personally, I'm tired of hearing jesters malign Gore for trying to get our attention. He is far from alone in seeing disaster approaching that could make Katrina look like a spring shower. Do we care? Or had we rather make jokes?"

I LOVES me some Weldon Payne! :loveya:
