A note to our readers

Hey --

Another week, another edition. Year six. Ay-yi-yi.

First off, we thank Ava and C.I. for steering last week's edition. They did a great jb.

And we thank everyone who helped with this edition. The credits for it are Dallas and the following:

The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.

All of the above worked on the editorial except Trina. Trina's input was in suggesting we Let It Be this edition. Otherwise?

This was our Let It Be edition. We all did our own thing.

Peace Mom Cindy Sheehan.
Richard Cohen also gets a truest this week. It's a regular for Cindy to get a truest, it's a new feature for Cohen.

We thought about using an illustration for this but felt it would undercut the point. We hope we were not mistaken.

Ava and C.I. cover how ABC is destroying V.
Jess and Ty teamed up for this duet. You won't want to miss it.

Ava and C.I. wrote this piece and are considering turning this into a regular feature.

I (Jim) wrote this one.
And for those who complain that Dona's article is buried deep in the edition, she actually selected the order for these pieces.

Ron Robbins feature reprinted with permission.

David Degraw feature reprinted with permission. Please make a point to check out both David DeGraw and Ron Robbins' sites.

Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.
Just noting the past features.

And that's what we ended up with. See you next week.

Peace.

-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
