A lot has happened in the mean- while. Danielle got engaged and we met her fiance and her in Poughkeepsie (as you know already). But here's a photo of the happy couple and the ring.
The famous Oscar pool was held at the Journal and the winner was ... NOT "Orlando B. de Mille." Actually it was your's truly who won the princely sum of $16 and a beautiful trophy. (I get to keep the trophy for a year!) Check out this photo.
And while most of us are still employed at the same place, we don't know if that place will be the same in the future. Yes 85 Civic Center Plaza is up for sale. The asking price is $5 million. There had been a lot of speculation about it and some of the reporters were even asked about the PoJo building's status. Now we can confirm it's on the market. No buyer yet. Os so they say ... but then I'm usually the last person to know.
But on a more happy note, I did get to celebrate two really happy occasions -- Judith's husband, Doug, celebrated a birthday and Dugan and John Penney had a whole bunch of people over at their new house in Rhinebeck -- and I drove there all by myself. No one died.
Kathy Norton became a grandma and visited the Journal (the two events are NOT related) with her class from Vassar. The students came up with good picks for 1A. And talking of 1A, man, there's just been a glut of news happening around here. Did anyone else notice?
