Hi George. Yes, I think there's been a lot of Strib talk lately, and I can see how that might get annoying. There's a lot of other stuff here, of course. Like zombies!

Also, I just want to remind everyone that anyone can post to this site if they register. There's no excuse for making accusations about editorial decision when you're as much in control as anyone else.

Is MNSpeak run by the Strib? Sure seems that way based on all the discussions about the Strib redesign. Who cares! What are you a bunch of out-of-work designers or ad agency types. Let’s have some original thoughts based on events of the world eh?

Those stories truly sucked. But for some reason, I liked the general feel of the section on Sunday. TBD…

I as well am indifferent to the Strib’s new design. However, it seems as though their plan for a makeover has included poorly written stories on ridiculous subjects. The t-shirt story that graced the cover of the first Source section? Embarrassing. Likewise the high school paper quality review of a skin care collection.

Uh oh, caught cheating. We might have a grade change in store.

The numerology piece (or rather the idea) actually was stolen from the PiPress, who ran something very similar a couple of weeks ago.

How. How the new Night Watch column pans out.

Drunk on a Sunday. Again.

I'm indifferent-to-pleased with the new Strib, however curious about where the new Night Watch column pans out.

Shameless plug (We're no strangers to that around here, are we?): I was mentioned Kara McGuire's Business column on Friday.
