We lost a lot of damned good people yesterday. You may like what we do. You may not. You may think it’s worth $1 per week. You may not. Whatever. But I’ll tell you one thing. Editorial, production, advertising, whatever ... I’d go to battle with every single one of them anytime.

Congrats to Bill McGuire, retiring from The Guardian after an incredible 44-year run in newspapers. Billy was my first boss, a friend, a true newspaper man AND can't find a fairway to save his life.
Hit 'em straight now, McGuire. For once. And happy retirement, you phony prick.
