Issue: October 18, 2012
Hi everybody,
As though this election weren't scary enough, RN&R writers Brad
Bynum, Mark Dunagan and Bob Grimm holed up in a subterranean mancave for
24 hours of horror movies, gastric distress and doggy style cuddling.
They live-blogged the action, and we run the best parts of a rough day as
our feature story. Also in this week's newspaper, Bethany Deines looks at
a county commission candidate, Dennis Myers checks out the Obama
campaign, and Ashley Hennefer dives into recycling. Feel free to click
the links below (and check out our Election widget). Don't forget to pick
up a newsprint copy of the paper for exclusive cartoons, columns and
soy-based ink. As always, thanks for reading the Biggest Little
Newsweekly on Center--if not for you, we'd probably all be living in Mark
Dunagan's basement.
Thanks,
Brian
