We Interrupt Your Regularly Scheduled Programming
By: Martha | January 28th, 2008
I’ve been doing this for over a year without a break and, now that we’ve got almost a full compliment of team blogs, I thought this was a good opportunity to correct that situation. So, I’m taking a quick sabbatical — meantime, the team bloggers will keep you up to date on everything and, if you’re looking for me, the tips email in the sidebar will do it. See you in a couple weeks!

Of coarse, Martha, as soon as you start your well-deserved break, Zamparini starts up his crazy rants again. Enjoy your time!

Zampa’s crazy rants? Come on now, what did he say that was “crazy”? If anything, he’s been remarkably calm considering the circumstances lately.

Martha, have a lovely break; you’ve earned it. Be forewarned that I’ll now have to store up two weeks’ worth of jokes about the suppressed Wayne Rooney bio and send them to you all at once when you get back. It’s not going to be pretty. But I mean, don’t let that haunt your vacation or anything.
