Issue: February 16, 2012
Dear Friends,
It's been more than two years since we gave you a "lists" issue. Last time, in October 2009, we described it as "easily digestible chunks of useless trivia." Enjoy the new one. Also enjoy Jessica Santina's look at the theatre season ahead and Bob Grimm's take on Ryan Reynolds in Safe House. Ashley Hennefer has information about the coming wave of cars that drive themselves. The conflict between Our Lady of the Snows School and its neighbors is covered on the news pages and Brad Bynum profiles the band Envirusment. Finally, our Winter Family Guide is tucked into our pages this week.
Thanks for reading our newspaper. Without you, we might be listing.
