*sigh* I wish Journalists and the consumers of their products would realize once more that political leanings should have absolutely no bearing on actual Journalism. Half of these moron comments on TU are just angry because the news they're reading isn't something that agrees with their beliefs. It's getting old.

I saw that. Congratulations, Ennis, you'll be great over there.
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

This is a huge positive for the T-U and Jacksonville.

Congrats Ennis.  You've always offered balance, and interesting perceptions on a range of subjects.  And too, you offer calm.  This should be fun and interesting.  ;D

Congrats Lake. Why does the TU need 5 editors? And we wonder why newspapers are failing?!

^Sigh. It's the editorial board. The people who establish the editorial policy and decide what candidates to endorse, etc.

It's a bit unusual to have "citizen members", but Ennis will be a terrific asset for them.

Congrats Ennis... it should be an interesting experience...
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

^ What they said!!  You're a great fit and should bring a fresh level voice to the paper.

Are there certain types of articles you'll be more focused on?  Or is this just the general editorial section?
