Timing couldn't be more perfect.  While many of you sit in the comfort of your chairs and complain to no end about The Olympian, they are out there doing their jobs and winning awards!

     The Olympian wins journalism awards

We've got Olybloggers slinging mud today.  Using ridiculous code in an attempt to not name names.  I mean, c'mon, just chill?  By the way, an award winner.  The bigger issue was how this particular poster, OlyDowntowner, went on to pass judgement based on looks and attire.  The comment is here in case you are interested in your daily dose of gossip.

P.S. I tested the link and bookmark for OlyDowntowner's comment.  The link works, but the bookmark doesn't lead you to the actual comment.  Search the page for 'Leggs' to find the actual comment.

And now, without comment

And now, without comment dictators here to edit my comments, here are a couple of resources for you to consider the next time you think your local paper is giving you the shaft.

Volunteer for the Editorial Board - http://www.theolympian.com/html/editorialboard.html

Ask the Editors - http://www.theolympian.com/asktheeditors/

Both of these channels are available for your use as a member of the community.
