EDITORIAL

This weekend is issue #131. I have already had to get a new desk chair, go on a diet, find ways to stack more paper. I love watching programs where there are paper-free desks and ail is neat and tidy!! Mine is a combination or RIHS, Board of Elections, Coler Auxiliary, City Funding and RIOC Funding for the RiHS…..also a stray personal item included in the stacks.

I can tell you the speed that jet-skiers are going past my window, that the NYC Ferry schedule is.

I can also tell you the glitches that happen when MailChimp ( campaign builder) I use decides to stop working and refuses to properly space text.
