The RNGC Caddyshackpocalypse
Bollards!
Meanwhile, our currently BFF-less Patch is chugging along, although most of its recent posts have centered around what those of us not in the "experienced journalist" biz like to call "servicey" features about carving pumpkins and whatnot. Not that we have any issues with carving pumpkins, but it would be nice if they included "That Won't Get Cited by the DRB For Being The Wrong Shade of Orange" at the end of the headline to "localize" the servicey content a bit, as those of us not in the "experienced journalist" biz like to say.
A note at the bottom of a letter on the Patch site today says that "Patch is in the hiring process for a new Reston editor," which we hope means we'll have another BFF there soon. The more voices out there to give lazy "web loggers" fodder for their self-indulgent blatherings keep folks honest, the better off we'll all be.

Damn. And I had a bet with the Convictress that Ms. Goff had accepted a position at SAHM.com. Looks like I have KP duty for a month.
ReplyDeleteStay klassy, Konvict.
ReplyDeleteNot a problem as long as a synonym for "klassy" is "uncouth".
DeleteI'd love for these sites not to have any open editorials by politicians of any party. Enough of the same.
ReplyDeleteCudn't agree more! Keep Plum and all like him (politicians that is) out of the paper. This week he talked about how "special" Reston is in meaningless third-grade level English, but he couldn't be bothered to come to the Reston master planning meeting to help preserve Reston's "special" character.
DeleteKeep him and all the rest of his ilk whatever their viewpoint out of our sight. They are best left unseen and unheard--and unvoted for in most cases.
