We understand that several e-mail addys for the TimesDaily are returning any communication sent to them. Well, it does cut down on negative comments.

Along that line, we understand the TVT forum is still not taking new members.

For those who miss long time forum member Bill Gray, his commentaries occasionally show up on Pen-N-Sword.

We understand that Mrs. Bump does not know the new secretary in the Sheffield Street Department, has never worked with her, and is not friends with her. In other words, there was no cronyism at work in the new hire for Sheffield.
