I think my good bp is a result of leaving.<br />And Greg, Marcelle and I can always make room in our social calendar for dinner with you and Wendy. (You guys busy tonight?)<br />And grilled veggies and chicken sound good, dear.

As my first editor, you made my entrance to the world of journalism way easier than I had any right to expect, given my utter lack of experience. <br /><br />And boy was it fun writing for you. I still laugh every time I remember the "Don't Want a Horse Head in My Bed" subject line in an email you sent me, questioning a reference in an Italian restaurant review.<br /><br />And, um, I hate to add to your waistline, but Wendy and I still owe you and Marcy a dinner.Greg Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04069118323017823888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319518199119951120.post-83492713649900760592009-04-29T13:13:00.000-04:002009-04-29T13:13:00.000-04:00Hi Joe,

Definitely one of the more interesting writers at the paper. There are fewer and fewer reasons to get the paper these days, with all the cuts! <br /><br />Your bp and resting pulse numbers sound good to me! I look forward to hearing how the "layoff" goes. I own your 100 classic hikes book, and look forward to the next one!<br /><br />Take care, and the readership of the N&O will miss you.<br /><br />KathleenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319518199119951120.post-36231081418866868182009-04-29T12:15:00.000-04:002009-04-29T12:15:00.000-04:00Hmmm.

It's great to hear that life is going well. <br />I'll request friendship right now.<br />JoeJoe Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10730848057783035524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319518199119951120.post-21499484612700253342009-04-29T08:42:00.000-04:002009-04-29T08:42:00.000-04:00Hey Joe: I was sorry to read that you and so many ...Hey Joe: I was sorry to read that you and so many of my favorite N&O writers had left the building, but I wish you luck in your new endeavors. You were a HUGE help to me when I was just starting out as an essay writer. I will never forget your publishing my dog story way back in '94, that led to two books. I'm enjoying the blog!<br />Susan Byrum Rountree<br />(If you add me to your friends on FB:), then I'll have 105.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
