Issue: June 18, 2009

Hey everybody!How’s your week going? It’s been beautiful up here on the third floor of the Reno News & Review World Headquarters. We’ve got another great issue for you. It’s Nada Dada Motel week, here in the biggest little city. Haven’t heard about Reno’s fastest growing counter-corporate-culture arts and artist event? Well, then, you’re really going to enjoy this week’s newspaper. But that’s not all! We’ve also got word on the Red Dog Saloon in Virginia City in the Arts & Culture section, info on Harry Reid’s conservative voting record in the news section, and a scintillating Grant Nejedlo review of an intriguing new sushi spot in Foodfinds. In fact, there’s so much stuff in this issue, I couldn’t mention it all in one newsletter introduction. So check out the links below and as always...Thanks for reading the Reno News & Review!Brian
