Bill is an artist of "tongue-in-cheek" comments and that is how I took his post - no offense taken - no hard feelings - none of that. Bill and I get along pretty well. We rib each other once in a while but, all in all, we get along fine.
I spoke with Austin this evening. He sounds great! I'm glad he's back on top of his game!
Austin told me that he'll be ready to take charge of the Spring Edition of Parker Pages and I'll be ready to lend every assistance that I possibly can when he's back in the pilot's seat.
As an aside, giving credit where credit is due, Austin had a fair portion of Parker Pages edited prior to the turning point where I had to assume the responsibility of getting it finished... it was certainly "crunch time" by then and there was some 'scrambling' to be done. In any case, it got done and that's the point.
Speaking of credit where it is due, there is a certain "genious" layout artist at Village Press by the name of Brandon Hoffman who puts together all the text files and graphics (or photo) files we send him and he formats them and modifies them and assimilates them all into the finished product we know as "Parker Pages". I am amazed by his professionalism and dedication to our fine publication... My hat's off to Brandon. Please take a bow sir.
