Newspapers

I started to colelct newspapers at the beginning of the week to comemorate the election. My co-worker Simon asked me what I was going to do if Obama lost. "Throw them all away" I replied. Luckily I have had to take no such drastic action. I did however, have quite the challenge on my hands to get hold of yesterday's New York Times. Luckily the students at Weber State hadn't quite caught on to the historic nature of things and when I called Brittney at 10:30am EST (8:30 MST) there were still a bunch left in the SS building. So, pretty much this post is just a shout-out to our adopted Sheridan woman, Brittney Haycock, who helped me secure a little piece of history for my collection yesterday! A little shout-out also to the lady who works the reception here at Pal-Tech, Debra Coleman, who told me at 9:45am EST to take the reception copy of the Washington Post because otherwise I might not get it. My fellow interns have since accused me of stealing but they are sadly mistaken, it was gifted to me. GIFTED.
