Mark your calendars to vote in the City of Sedona Special election November 8, 2011
got a RRN & it occurred that we’d read almost all the info before & it wasn’t till checked the Calendar & saw familiar headline & realized I’d read some TWO WEEKS before it hit print. Hmm. Got me thinking. If I get the ipad that my kids are bugging me to get, I can read the Eye in the bathroom & best of all not have to scrounge around for pages that go missing in the cat box or bird cage or trash before getting finished. original newspaper thoughts are evolving. one day i may put the parchment down & embrace new tech. for now here’s my email address & let the weaning process begin
Hear, hear Brian. You display a great deal of courage to tell it like it is. Thanks much.
