Newsletter Publishing in Retrograde

Some things just bear repeating.

Today as I composed the youth newsletter, I broke every machine I touched. What should have taken 30 minutes took almost 3 hours. The copier jammed thrice, the folding machine destroyed 10% of the papers, the access based pc database wouldn't share any names with me for the mailing list, even the postage meter machine was out of lickum, so I had to manually seal all the envelopes myself. All in all, I missed the mail man by mere minutes so I had to deliver 103 envelopes to the mailbox myself, instead of just to the front office.

No doubt, Kurt would say Mercury was in retrograde today.

    Did you remember to spell-check it? After all that, you just *know* there is a naughty word or two in there.

    If all of the recipients had iPods, couldn't you do the newsletter as a podcast? Christmas is only 112 days away….

    it's not mercury. It's Earth. It's weeping because of the death of Don Lafontaine.
