I have a new found appreciation for how “Friend of the blog” Riley Denver feels.  Mr. Denver is the Director of Media and Public Relations for the Lynx.  I’ve spent a bit of time this afternoon, trying to put the word out about our meeting at City Hall tomorrow and it’s not as easy as you might think.  Fortunately, I’ve been given some good leads and for the most part, I think everyone was pretty receptive.  Unfortunately, we’re butting heads with the Senators opening of training camp - but hopefully that won’t completely wipe out the resources of all the news rooms here in town.   In any event, tomorrow is round one in this competition.

Blogging tomorrow will likely be non-existent - if there is a post, it won’t come until later in the evening.  I’m hopeful that the mainstream media will give you a sense of how things went at 6 p.m.   Stay tuned in any event.

Thanks to everyone who’s lent support, words of encouragement, or thrown a link my way.  It’s all greatly appreciated and extremely helpful; with two kids and a full-time job, running down a lot of these stories on my own is just not possible.

Last little bit of multimedia for today:

Still hard to believe.  Harder to stomach.
