34. What happens is, we put it up about 10 min to press and always
And I mean always, there are copy edit issues that come up that have to come back to the writers and then back up through the editors, because in some cases, the direct quote or something can only be changed by the writers... like today, just happened, piece came back down, had to rewrite a part, then back up to editor. That is what is taking so long, in the mean time, you guys are left hanging. And what sucks worse is watching conversations going on for weeks here and not being able to speak to them because I am on the story. Now having to wait to tell you guys is no fun either. For me, the pleasure of the work is that it provides information and until that information is provided, I sit in limbo.

We will be surprised together, sort of, on some levels.

I must now go and evacuate Florida, which I should have been working on hours ago, but stopped to rewrite.
