  2. They’re short: We mean it. Article title, link. That’s it.
  3. You can talk back: Respond to emails from the Tiny Addison Recorder with your feedback or questions and we’ll respond.
  4. Sweet gifs in each Tiny Addison Recorder. SWEET GIFS.
  5. Social media posts get lost and you might miss out on a cool story, bro. No one wants that.
  6. Our 50th subscriber gets a prize: Maybe it’ll be a sweet Addison Recorder coffee mug, or a six-pack of your favorite beer. Maybe we’ll steal something on your behalf, but probs not.

Addison Recorder Mailbag, 1st Edition: Farewell, Dusty

In other news, the byline should probably be: “Holy S%!&, somebody asked a question!”

Ahem.

I speak on behalf of every one of the writers/editors here at the Addison Recorder when I say that we openly welcome your questions, and will always do our best to respond in a timely fashion. (Especially if they keep coming one at a time.) We accept them through email, Facebook, and Twitter. This first and only question comes from Twitter. You’ll excuse me for fleshing it out….slightly.

(Has anyone noticed how much tweeting is like sending ol’ timey telegraphs? All that’s missing is the insertion of the word “”STOP” every three words. Seriously, I expect future tweets to read something like: “Travis, College football this weekend. Stop. Bring chips and guac. Stop. Also, Cherokee look restless. Stop. Expect buffalo crossings at Edgewater. Stop. Alex, Lakeview.”)

(On the other hand, I don’t think that’s 140 characters. Two tweet/telegraphs, maybe.)
