Well, I'd heard the murmurs for long enough, so it's excellent that they're finally confirmed. Welcome, Paul. I'm looking forward to meeting you and seeing your great work on newsprint, instead of just online.
But don't give away your winter duds. We do on occasion have real weather here. I mean, it's been in the 50s all week, so I have to bundle up before I walk the dog. And it hailed the other day! There was actual ice on the ground for hours! If that happens again after you get here, you'll hardly know you've left Maine. _________________ The Occasional Odd Crop: Photos of whatever catches my eye
Thank God I can finally say "congrats." Worst-kept secret since aliens landed in New Mexico.
This goes for me too, PW.
I won't presume you'll be coming through Michigan in your long trek from the North, but if you do, stop on in.
Oh, and Paul, may the Maine Squeeze enjoy all the success in their move to the south that another team from the north (the Buffalo Braves) enjoyed upon the move to sunny Southern California.

In short, my three-year plan is better than your three-year plan...
But good luck in San Diego, man... _________________ "I use the word totally too much. I need to change it up and use a word that is different but has the same meaning. Mitch do you like submarine sandwhiches? All-encompassingly..."

And now that we're at least on the same coast, maybe we can meet up a little more easily.
Mark, you'd better clear that with Schneider. I'm not sure they have an "open" relationship.
For most of you all, that is a reference to a karaoke number by Rob and Paul that was fracking hilarious at Syracuse. _________________ www.sportsdesigner.com
Congratulations Paul.
I hear you can't buy TastyKakes in San Diego either, but you shouldn't need the extra energy because you are leaving the snow shovels behind.
But just in case, you can always get what you need here:
Yay Paul! I will always be grateful to you for those talks we had when I was trying to flee Portland. You really helped me out a lot. Good luck down there in San Diego, buddy.

Yeah, I'd like to keep Paul and his 600 SND awards all to myself, but unfortunately, fate, my wife and constitutional amendments in 35 states conspire to keep us apart. But he is moving to Cali!

Don't worry, Rob. You'll always have Syracuse! _________________ "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good." - Mauraders Map from Harry Potter
Paul doesn't want to admit it, but his secret fascination with ex-Red Sox and current Padre catcher Doug Mirabelli has led him to San Diego.
Congratulations, Paul, and like francie said, thanks for the advice. Rock on. _________________ What does that make us?
Big damn heroes, sir!
