Issue: September 17, 2009
Hey everybody!
Hot temperatures got you down? Uncertain if you’ll ever sleep comfortably again? Well, we here at the World Headquarters of the Reno News & Review have got you (un)covered. It’s our annual Fall Guide. Do we take you into the NFL locker rooms? No. Do we take you on a fall color tour of Interstate 80? No. Do we tell you how to pack a lunchbox? Hell, no. Our Fall Guide is our annual primer to the great indoors: Books and movies, internet, TV and video games; there’s even a seasonal calendar of events. Along other lines, we’re nearing the end of voting for our Biggest Little Best of Northern Nevada readers’ poll. Log in and vote at www.newsreview.com/reno/ballot/bestofreno09, and don’t forget to vote in our Biggest Little Songwriting Contest.
As always, thanks for reading, supporting and advertising in the paper. If it weren’t for you, we’d be in the autumn of our careers and have to leaf.
