I heard a thump on the porch and went out to see the newspaper had been delivered. Ordinary enough, you say, but here’s the rub: It’s Sunday’s paper being delivered at 5 PM Saturday afternoon. I opened it up, relishing the notion of reading tomorrow’s news, but was disappointed to discover sections A, B & [...]
Stephanie Bruno has another story about our ongoing renovation in this morning’s Times-Picayune.
Roy Bragg writes about NOLA bloggers (including yours truly) in the San Antonio Express-News.
I’ll be on the local CBS affiliate, WWL channel 4, sometime this evening, talking about you-know-what.
