You must be talkin to me cause there aint no one .1else around.... Boy what we gotta do to get your attention! J240IINow, if this book is a labor-of-love—its of the toughlove variety & nobody had it tougher than EmmyBlackwell. She incurred the wrath of virtuallyeveryone—teachers whose classes she was in, teacherswhose classes were disrupted, nervous students whodemanded retake after retake, and endless technicalhassles. As always she brought her own sense ofgrace & good humor to the situation—(we couldnthave done the book without you). And then we haveNaomi whose tenure as head yearbook editor hasfinally drawn to a close. She remarkably occupiedthat position without benefit of taking a single picture,doing virtually no layout, or writing any Gizzzardmaterial. What she did was organize, keep thingsstraight, pick up the loose ends, make sure everythingand everybody worked together. Shes beenindispensable. Its a tougn act to follow, but Leila hasofficially been passed the reigns. As a MiddleSchooler, shes our youngest primary editor ever. Shetoo is a detail person, but with a cinematic/postgeneration a kind of slant. It will be interesting tosee where she takes the book in the future. This issuealso saw some new people step up to our literarychopping block—most notably Austin who took chargeof tne Gizzzzard. So, if there are any lapses of taste,journalistic faux pas, or unsubstantiated accusations—you know where to point. And theres Flora, who inher quiet way, is mastering every skill—photography,layout and design, writing copy, even fixing thecomputer when it goes Kerplunk. With Riley, Anna,Zeri, Melanie, Kejal, Tansy Olive, Mary, Beth, Julia,Katelin, Lana, Isaac, Carrie, Justin, Garrett, and ourold pros—Soriya, Christian, Andy, Camellia, andGreta, the everyday mood around our illustrious officewas, helieve it or not, fun.So, there you have it.
