From Paul Fain, Review 94-96 (pfain@ucsusa.org):

Though the details of my life are inconsequential, certain grievances
from the days of yore and Lew must be unearthed. First, I hope that those of you who failed to see the humor when my pratfall accidentally unplugged an entire bank of computers can now see the error of your ways. And yes, I did hurl certain items and various fluids out of the windows at the Review, but there were no recorded injuries resulting from this activity. For the vast majority of you who likely have no idea who I am, I was on the Review's payroll for a stretch back in the mid-90s - making mad cash for my keyboard skillz. Though I did do some writin' and editin', I was mostly known for my late night graphic arts work (think of the Sweet and Lew posters, or the photoshop mangling of various staffer mug-shots). In short, I was the guy who had the light on in the Review's office at 5 am on a Saturday, busy consulting with my caffeine-addled muse to create some of Slab's greatest lyrics. Since those days, I've been toiling in our nation's capital, with a brief break up in NYC and a lengthy bohemian stretch on the road when I had no fixed address. I currently pay the bills for my pad in the 'hood by flacking, but write regularly for the Washington City Paper and City Limits magazine. I hope the old posse is doing well. Drop me a line sometime, particularly if you're looking to hit a dive-bar in DC. Adios - PF

From Catherine Hopkinson: in the interest of service journalism, i would like to point out that i finally figured out what the hell scott was talking about in his last post.

the "watery casket" he referred to is surely the cooler that anne marie fahey was stuffed into by tom capano and his wiley brothers. here's a funny story about the fahey family and the emotional 10 minutes they spent with said cooler.

From Mike Louie:"michael kai louie 2G, was a victim of an attempted murder in fall 2002 and was presumed dead beforen resurfacing several hours later. he still bears a knife-wound scar by his left kidney. he spent his 25th birthday in county jail in northern california on a variety of charges stemming from early 1996. most recently he was jumped by a group of skinheads from Reno and spent the night walking The City streets wearing frozen banannas on his face. he attributes the attack to the mexican wrestling mask he was wearing at the time, which so often ellicits such behavior. now works in pest control, focusing on vermin insectoid, mammallian, corporate."

From Scott Goss:
ryan, you my nizzle fo sho!
 
who else but the kid would come into a pristine blog and crap a dumpster baby his first time out? next thing you know he'll be eating sandwiches out of some skank's watery casket!
 
veronica on public access? im gonna pee my pants!

From Mike Lewis, 2001 (chronicler623@hotmail.com):
After graduation, I went to work as a creepy janitor which apparently prevented me from responding until now. (See below)

In reality, I've been writing sports for the Delaware State News in Dover for a little over two years now. The range of coverage topics (Little League to NASCAR; boxing to college football) gives you a wide-range of stories and you meet a wide-range of people (like ring girls with bright smiles and Winston Cup drivers with no teeth.)
   
For those a bit older, yes I did meet the "first" Mike Lewis once in the Delaware Stadium pressbox. We're kind of opposites in the fact that he's not tall, from the city and a good writer, while I'm none of those things.
   
For more info. re: ring girls, ushering at weddings and other items, e-mail me. Stay cool ...
   
 

From Ryan Cormier (ryancormi@hotmail.com): Hey everyone. I figured I should check in since everyone but the creepy janitors have posted on this thing.

I’m still at the paper in Wilmington, pretty much where I have worked since graduation in 2000 following my five years of “studies.”

For two years I did the night police beat, then I wiped the blood off my shoes and the tears off my shoulders and began work on the features desk. General assignment focusing on the college-aged drinking crowd. Tough life.

On the personal side of things, I got married last year to Candy McPhee. I’m sure you all remember Candy. Remember that night with the pudding cups? Oh man. Good times. A little Cormi is due in October. We didn’t really plan on that. She is against abortion. Now I can only hope for a stillbirth or else I can kiss my weekly golf outings goodbye.

Anyway, it’s good to see what you all are up to. Hope to see some of you soon. You know who you are. No Golden Boy, not you.

Looks like the posts are slowing down, but there are still LOTS of you who owe us your current life story, so get on it, please.

Also, feel free to use this space to ask if anyone wants to reunionize someplace, whether it be a casual outing at a bar or a trip somewhere, like a sporting event, concert, theme park, etc. And if anyone hears anything about homecoming (less than three months away), send it this way.

From Peter Bothum, AS97, Review 94-97, (pbothum@ydr.com):
 
I really had nothing to say or offer to the Review Blog, but something pressing has come up that must be addressed and stopped immediately.
 
It has come to my attention that the worst band in the world, Limp Bizkit, has recorded a version of The Who's "Behind Blue Eyes." Seriously. They did. Now, we all know The Who's legacy is already ruined because they gave all their songs away to commercials.
 
But if Interscope Records releases this song on Limp Bizkit's next album, as planned, it will undoubtedly be one of the worst things to ever happen in music history, ever. One of the best rock songs ever recorded will be destroyed by Fred Durst and millions of little Limp fans who will think he wrote it. 
 
Please, for the love of rock, e-mail Interscope at  feedback@igamail.com, call them at 310-865-1000 or snail mail them at:
Interscope Records
2220 Colorado Avenue
Santa Monica, CA 90404
 
And tell them not to ever, ever, ever release this song. Ever.
 
Oh, and I've been saving this haiku for a rainy day. Enjoy:
 
be the fish, the lew
shozed printers breakdance
and play for keepers

Kyle Belz AS/2000 (kjb222@hotmail.com):
I was A (news) Features Editor from '99-00. I fancied myself a holy heretic then, and, to some degree, still do....

After graduation, I traveled up and down the East Coast from Florida to Boston, staying in various cities for a few months at a time. I don't recommend it. Sleeping on couches for the better part of two years wrecks your back....

In 2002 I published a book of poems titled "Seasons of Construction and Zoos," in which I illustrate the political and metaphysical ramifications of adhering to dogmaticcapitalization practices (no offense copy edtiters) I got a nice chunk of change out of it, all of which was quickly blown on booze and pot.... If you would like a copy. I will send you one for $10. Email me for address.

I started working with the Red Cross last August. It is very rewarding work, and has opened creative portals in me brain. I work in Springfield, Il. It is a strange little place, town rising like a mutated stalk out of the corn field...

In my free time I tremble beneath the ovulating moon and have been free-lancing political rants. I have been forced to do this under an alias, since my work forces me to be "officially neutral" in political and religious beliefs.

I just finished writing a play (title: THE HOLY JOKE) and currently am in negotiations with a venue to stage it. I'm looking for a church that will let me hang water balloons above the pews. One of the characters of the play, the priest, will shoot them during the play, and thereby drench the audience in holy water. I'm banking on a universalist church to open its
doors to my raging hilarity.

Your loving menace,
Kyle Belz

Update from John Yocca (johnyoc22@hotmail.com): Don't hate me ex-Reviewers, but I crossed over to the "dark side" and made the common leap from journalism to public information. Just Monday I was offered a job to be the Public Information Officer for the Mayor of Perth Amboy, Joseph Vas, which I quickly accepted considering he was offering me $14,000 more than I was making at the Home News Tribune. It was hard to pass up. Basically I will be his press guy for the city of Perth Amboy. Working with the press and reporters who cover the towns, to setting up press conferences, to proofreading speechs, putting together a monthly newsletter, traveling around with him when he makes public appearences, working with all the department heads anytime they need information to out to the public. It's a pretty exciting job actually. Vas has been mayor for 14 years now and is running for reelection next year and last two elections he faced no opposition. He is also going to be elected to the New Jersey State Assembly his November, with no competition. So his future is bright. I will have all the little perks that as a reporter you get offered but can't take. His former PIO, who went to work for the state Dept. of Health for much more money, said he will take me to Yankee games and Net games and I get to go down to Atlantic City during the League of Municipalities conference and party with everyone. After working at this paper for nearly two years now, I was getting fed up with the way we here at the Home News were grossly underpaid and vastly underappreciated and disgustingly overworked. Typical I guess. Although I won't be writing as much, it will free me up and give me more time to work on my creative writing. I'm even going to take a playwriting class in NYC next year when I'm settled in and moved into Perth Amboy. Well that's the update with me. Good luck all! Keep in touch!

I was an editorial writer for The Review in 1993 and '94. At the time I was over-the-top conservative, and pretty much declared Ronald Reagan to be God. Since then, I've switched teams. I now live in Atlanta, and am co-chair of the Student Association of Democratic Achievement, a liberal collegiate think tank.

Before moving to Atlanta, I spent three years as an obituary writer at the weekly Plaughsburgh Informer in Plaughsburgh, Wyoming (a small town outside of Jackson Hole). I also worked for 11 months at the Jackson Hole Zoo. But that's a whole different story.
I have several updates on people from '93-'94:
Johnny Newman: Lives in Washington, D.C., does PR.
Mike O'Koren: Writes for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette; just had twins.
Dennis Hopson: Backpacking through Europe; spent some time at an
English-language newspaper.
Benoit Benjamin: Teaches high school science in Danbury, Ct.
Chris Morris: Just got married to Yinka Dare (ex-Review staff writer),
is in grad school.
Hope everyone's doing great. When's the reunion?

From Chrissi (Pruitt) Jennings (chrissip11@aol.com):
Let's see, Review background includes work on copy desk, sports desk, editorial desk and was exec. in 98-99 with EIC Ryan Cormier... Graduated from Delaware in 99... Since then have been all over the map careerwise but have returned to my original roots... work for the York Daily Record in York, Pa. i'm the high school sports reporter here... a job once occupied by mr. christopher yasiejko... in fact, sniff-sniff, it was yaz himself who showed me the ropes of a covering high school football game before heading off to the big city...(cue all in the family music) those were the days.

i work with Brad Jennings (AS97) he's a sports copy/layout design editor... we got hitched in October... and are managing the working together/being married thing quite well... pete bothum (AS97) also works here... he's the entertainment guru in the features dept... Melissa Tyrell, also a former Reviewer worked here for a while... but she left a few months ago for the News Journal....Oh, Jennifer Blenner, who was also a Reviewer... not sure of the years is also working here as an intern for the summer...Geez i guess i'm kind of boring...York is... well... ok, i hate it. And i'm looking to leave the newspaper industry...maybe magazine or publishing... so if anybody has any leads, send me a note! or if you have some freelancing -- i'll do it. just let me know. does that sound cheap and desperate?(god, i hope so).

Still keep in touch with some Review peeps... those who have not yet posted on here... and because you have not, i will now post about you and make up what you do -- if you wish to correct the error get up off of those things and email karen; (by the way, yaz, you just missed having a made up profession...) in no particular order:

Jessica Zacholl (former Section 2, oops i mean Mosaic, Goddess) she lives in LA now... i think she's a movie star or something... i heard she was going to be in some surfing movie... or was it porn? hmmmm.

Ryan Cormypants (former EIC 98-99) he lives in hockessin... has become a yuppy; is a devoted Yanni fan and has grown his hair long and wears it in braids...

Rob "Mugsy" Kalesse (former everything... news, sports)... is a driver for those carriage rides in downtown wilmington... currently he is pedaling the bike carriages at the beach...

Jess Myer (former Mosaic chiqua)... she lives outside of d.c. and operates one of the roller coasters at kings dominion or busch gardens or something...you know who i mean, she's that girl that talks into the microphone too close... you can't understand what she just said but you're pretty sure it was vitally important to your safety on the ride...

Meghan Rabbitt (former Mosaic and news)... lives in NYC... rumor has it that she has decided to quit journalism and become a part of riverdance in las vegas... seriously that lassie can jig.

Veronica Fraatz (newsie news news)... has just started her own cable access program out of her parents' basement... kind of cross between Wayne's World and The Michael Essany Show


Ok. I'm done. Thanks Karen... i just pretended to do work! I kid... i work. i promise. on tuesdays.

Email me... i'm dying of boredom.

:)

From Christopher Yasiejko (AS '99) [yasiejko@optonline.net]: At The Review, I embarrassed the following positions: assistant sports editor, sports editor, managing news editor, and managing sports editor. Long overdue, here's a bit of what I've been doing since graduation: My first post-college gig was at the York (Pa.) Daily Record. I covered the Baltimore Ravens before they were good. The most exciting news item I wrote about was Ray Lewis' Wacky Post-Super Bowl Double-Murder Festival, which, it turns out, went on without his assistance. The next season, the Ravens won the Super Bowl in Tampa. The bastards.

Covered a bit of high school and local amateur sports before leaving the paper for The New York Times. And before you get your panties in a bunch, it was not a glamourous opportunity. If glamour were a color -- say, royal blue -- this was more like a stale brown. Don't misunderstand -- the money was wonderful, considering what we've been conditioned to expect (New York's high standard of living notwithstanding). But the job wasn't fulfilling for a writer. Three stories, I wrote. In two years. Remained in practice on my own time, but I needed to get back to the daily effort. I was editing and designing the sports pages. (Read an account of my time there in this article published in the in-house Times Talk.)

I tired of the socially destructive schedule and the lack of creative opportunities, so I resigned in September 2002. (An aside: It was invaluable to work in that office during the 2000 Presidential Who's-Who and in the aftermath of the collapse of the World Trade Center.) A month later, I moved out of my Hoboken apartment and left for Europe. Backpack, rolled clothes, leather notebook, digital camera. Six weeks, eight countries, 13 cities, one me. Much wine.

Returned to Delaware for the holidays. Began job hunt. (This economy is bad, you know.) Went to Wilmington Writers' Workshop. Started freelancing for The News Journal again. A position opened in features, so I made the jump from sports. (I needed something fresh and open.)

Getting used to the pace, which is considerably slower than sports and news. Enjoying the time allowed for working on stories. Sitting beside Ryan Cormier. Bracing for any spitballs or Wet Willies. The normal schedule allows for nights out in Wilmington and Philly and trips to New York with friends.

Photography is a passion of mine. (Visit Brewed Awakenings on Main Street in September -- I'll have the walls lined with my photos for that month. Buy one or 10.) I'm determined to learn to surf in the next year (if you'd like to accompany me to a week-long surf camp in California, write me). Thinking of buying a place in Wilmington. Trolley Square. Could use a roomie. (I will not call you Roomie. Promise.)

And, lastly, I plan to start a magazine. Brewed at home and via e-mail. Focused on 20- and 30-somethings with much passion and curiosity and intelligence and energy, but looking for a focus. Features, fiction, memoirs, poetry, photography, Q&A. Could use a Web designer and writers. And photographers. Do it. Now.

Thus ends my opus. Feel free to flog me. (Just not in the face.)

Hey you! Yes, you, fellow Review alum who wrote expressing interest in the site and never wrote back with your bio. You know who you are. All like, 10, of you. Get off your asses and let us know what you're doing that makes you too busy to jot it down in a simple e-mail. You're breaking Bischer's heart... :(

From Michelle Handleman (michellehandleman@hotmail.com) AS 2000 Managing Sports Editor, Fall 1999:

I can’t believe how fast the time has gone. Well I have very fond memories of the Review and it’s really so good to read these updates.

As for me, I moved back to Washington, D.C. and took an unexpected internship with CBS News after graduation. I say unexpected since I decided to take it only weeks before graduation, and up to then I thought for sure I would be doing something in sports. After the internship, I took a job as an Internship Coordinator/Recruiter for CBS News before heading back to school. I completed my Master’s degree in Journalism and Public Affairs -- Broadcast Concentration at American University. And then I hit the slumping economy, where D.C. jobs in the broadcast world are far and few between. I’ve now decided to include New York City in my search, so if anybody knows of something in television or radio, please let me know.

In between though, I have been teaching at a private school in Northern Virginia, and during the War I worked for CBS News in their tape library. It was a fascinating time to be working in news. We had roughly 1500 tapes to deal with over the course of the war. So needless to say there were lots of very long days.

The broadcast world is brutal and low paying. But I guess in the words of Michael Jordan “I have an itch that I have to scratch.” So who knows where I’ll end up. Frankly I just want to travel the world and take lots of pictures.

I want to thank Karen for putting this site together. I think it’s great to have a way for all of us to keep in touch. And after so many years, it’s nice to see familiar names. Keep writing!!

Cheers,
Michelle

From Sue Stock (newszee@aol.com):

Former executive editor (2000-2001) and a bunch of other stuff

Hey gang, sorry for my extended delay in getting myself into this blog update whirlwind. I am indeed in Lansing, Michigan. Business reporter for the Lansing State Journal. And before I forget, our metro desk is looking for reporters... We lost our night cops, city government, K-12 and courts reporters... they need to fill the spots FAST. So if anyone hates their job and wants to come enjoy the scenic beauty that is Michigan, give me a shout. I'm sure they'd love another Review alum.

As for the rest of life, not much has changed. Still drink a lot (though miss our weekly outings to the Deer Park), still single (SOOOO single), still poor, still ignoring phone calls from my mother. Glad to know many of you came to your senses and got out of this gig. Pity the rest of us. Oh, and the rumor of the summer is that Dr. J retired (though may still teach a class here or there, according to Bill Fleischman). Now he can finally finish the Chuck Stone biography.

OK, that's all from Michigan. Write me!!!

From Jimmy Miller: Yes, April, I remmeber Slab. Especially this sunny little ditty:

"Smash your bones and lick the fetus
Roll in shit and call me Jesus."

First off, Lewisauce@aol.com is not Mike Lewis' address. It's mine, in homage to the little Lizza himself. In the past, Lew has always appreciated my tribute to him. I hope that still holds.

Jimmy Miller here. As April said, I'm in Easton, where I'm the Bethlehem editor. That means I run the small satellite bureau of five poeple (including me, but I'm getting a photog soon) and try like hell to beat the competition, despite their large satellite bureau of 12 people (plus two photogs). But mostly what I do is spread panic in the streets. I spend my free time mountain biking and plotting my escape from journalism -- just kidding. Sort of. Drop me a line for details. I'm 28 and not hitched.

Easton's an OK place -- urban enough to be somewhat interesting, rural enough to keep me away from large crowds. It's cool if you can stand the mullets.

Anyone else from our era -- I graduated '96, and I was the editor in cheese of The Rescrew my senior year, after stints as city desk editor and admin (and on a side note, I think Harris Ross is the best teacher on the planet) -- please drop me a line. I can't guarantee I'll stay in touch, because I'm not very good at that, but I can give it a whack. Keep the Sauce flowing, and remember the Lew.

From: Carla Correa, AS 01 (abbeyroad1979@yahoo.com): Hi everyone! I was happy to find this page and see what you are all up to! I was lots of stuff at TheReview... copy editor, copy desk chief, city news editor, etc. I have been copy editing at The Baltimore Sun since January 2003 and I absolutely love it! I finish up this gig at the beginning of August, and I will be copy editing some for Knight Ridder/Tribune wire service and then finishing my masters at Maryland. (I had class with Eric JS again! And now Susan Kirkwood is at school with me.) I am going for the journalism masters because I'd love to be a part-time Dr. Ross or Dr. Jackson someday. I'm hoping to get a full-time job at The Sun when I graduate and move from where I'm living now - D.C. - to Baltimore, keep your fingers crossed for me... I'm waiting to see if it really is going to work out. The real goal is to be a housewife, haha, but hey, I can't count on finding the lawyer/doctor man of my dreams. But I sure will try! Congrats to all the happy couples, btw, Jaime and Jeff/Jen and Paul. Oh, and for those of you who remember my partner-in-crime, Andrea Boyle, she is out at Northwestern getting her masters in broadcast journalism. I flew out there to visit her in May, and she's doing fabulous. Hope you are all doing well, drop me an e-mail anytime. Love, Carla


From Drew Volturo (drewitalia250@hotmail.com):
City News Editor (Fall 1999)
Graduated UD May 2000

For those who don't remember me, Maria Dal Pan was my better half on the City Desk for a semester. My time with the Review was cut short by a combination of falling into Journalism late in college (during my first senior year) and student teaching at the end of my second senior year.

For the past 2 1/2 years, I have been the byline whore for the Delaware State News, the OTHER daily newspaper in the First State. I cover just about everything down here, including Dover, Smyrna, Kent County, courts and cops. Oh, and right now, I'm the second photographer for the paper. That translates into busy times, but a lot of great stuff is flying across my desk. I work about 5 feet from another Review Alumnus, Mike "Preach" Lewis, the Dean of Frederica and Mayor of Milford. Hell, half our office is comprised of former Reviewers, including my two immediate bosses.

As for Drew the person, I'm still single and I live in Dover. God my life sucks. Oh, and I get to e-mail Ryan Cormier every now and again. SHOOT ME NOW. Kidding... things are pretty good. I'm actually on the National Board for my fraternity (Phi Sigma Pi, if anyone remembers or cares), which is a damn cool place to be at age 26. Otherwise, I'm just trying to find a woman to tolerate me for, oh, about 50 years or so. :) I'll probably hang with reporting for a while, but I'd like to end up as a professor at UD teaching history classes on The Mall. Sorry, it will NEVER be The Green, no matter how many bricks Roselle lays around it. Damn jackass.

Feel free to e-mail or IM (DrewItalia250) me anytime. Hope all is well out in Review-land!


From Greg Orlando: Greg Orlando has been many things to all people under the sun yearning to sniff of the armpit of freedom: Generallisimo, Lord of the Dance, talentless white rapper Lugubrious G, Vanguard for the Intellectually Shriveled. Now, as senior editor for the bitchin' jug-band music mag Xbox Nation, he spends his time taking lunch, playing Halo, and sending threatening notes to the gov't. His hobbies include blowing the pennywhistle and dancing a merry jig on the graves of those who would oppose him.

Chances are, he hates you. In life.

From April Helmer (ajhelmer@rcn.com): Okie dokie, where the hell do I begin.

I'm happy to say I still keep in touch with many of the review clan I was so close with while my stint at the Review. I was a copy editor, student affairs desk, a pawn and a king, managing section 2 for a winter section and managing news. Sheesh, and I didn't even work there my last semester in school. That's when Joe McDevitt and I were the slackinest interns Delaware Today probably ever had.

So, graduated in 1996, went to South Jersey, managed to escape a Gannett paper there in 1998 and came to The Express-Times, in the growing arts community that is Easton, where soonthereafter Jimmy Miller got a job. I think we're siamese twins, but were just born to different mothers, in different states. After convincing everyone that no, we weren't a couple, the social life finally picked up.

At any rate, I've been a New Jersey news reporter, a features writer and finally, the arts and entertainment editor here. I'm loving it. So I've decided to stick around for a couple of years. I've actually recently bought a house. Scary stuff, is it not? But in 30 years, it's mine free and clear. Right, not sure I'll be able to stick it out, but it's nice to have what the grown-ups keep calling "equity."

My boyfriend and I moved into the house two weeks ago. I met him here, he's a Jersey reporter for the paper.

I can't think of anything else that I should fill anybody in on, since the international singing sensation career hasn't worked out. I hope people will get in touch if they so desire, much love to "mac daddy" scott goss, mark jolly and leo "we worked together for 15 min." shane. And I'm hoping to see Sweetlew, Murph (aka Schulz), Moorehead and Werde word word soon. And all I have to do is walk out to the newsroom to see Jimmy and our own Jenna Portnoy, who has added a whole new perspective to "Rescrew: The Next Generation."

Does anyone remember Slab?

Thanks to Shaun Gallagher for this bit of info:

Jen Lemos ('02: Managing News, Editorial, City, Nat/State) and Paul
Mathews ('00: Editorial, Admin) tied the knot on Saturday, June 14, 2003. The ceremony was in Georgetown, Del. Several Review alumni served as bridesmaids and groomsmen. They included Noel Dietrich ('02: Managing Mosaic, Features, Copy), Bonnie Warrington ('03: Managing Mosaic, Entertainment, Copy), and Mike Lewis ('01: Managing Sports, Sports). Jen and Paul will live in Newark, Del.

From Josh Putterman ('91):
A question for Dan DeLorenzo -- Is Scott Johnson (former fellow Hartford Courant employee) one of the honchos in your department? If so, tell him I said hello. And enough with the Yankees -- watch out for those Phillies!

From Dan DeLorenzo: Hello, I am Dan DeLorenzo former Review reporter (00) City desk editor F00 and art and graphics editor S00 -- Last you all heard from me I was leaving DE to be an Intern at the New York Times for the summer and that went great. I learned lots and got published a lot. Then I went back to California and couldn't find a decent job in San Diego so after 4 months of swinging a sledghammer and surfing I went up to LA for a short stint in the graphics department at the LA Daily News only to return to NY 3 months later to start working at the AP here in Rockefeller Center. Now here for a year I finally have my first regular hour shift and things are good. We do a lot of volume and covering the war was exciting. I live downtown in Tribeca, Im in dire need of a haircut, Im painting tons, doing music production for myself and friends, have been doing a a lot of skateboarding at a skatepark nearby much to the shagrin (what's the style on that) of my wrists and ankles and I am working on starting a DVD magazine with some friends. Samples of all these various projects will be available on line at 75chambers.com by the end of August. I am interested in finding freelance work for magazines and learning about that side of the biz as opposed to perpetual freak out daily deadlines like here. Get at me with all questions, comments or concerns at the below contact. Per the usual, the copy desk here earns every penny on my shift so ignore the spelling. Hope to hear from you all and Congratulations Bender and Maria. -Dan
