We got our first Macintosh computer here at The Journal in 1988 and we have been all Mac ever since.

Everyone knows that the Mac is the best platform for desktop publishing and graphics. We think it is the best for a lot of other uses as well, but then, we love our Macs.

Editor’s note: The Journal staff is proud to have had Leslie work to make the paper better for the last two and a half years. We are pleased with the look she has brought to the paper and the improvement in the quality of the paper through her efforts. We are here for our readers. We are local.

To everything there is a season. As we transition from the heat of summer to the crisp cool of autumn, I find my life changing seasons as well. In January my husband and I will become first-time parents, and this is the final edition of The Journal for which I’ll serve as news editor before I start working full time on preparing for the baby.

American workers deserve respect PDF  | Print |  E-mail

Editor’s note: We don’t usually write about unions as Virginia is a right to work state, but this article certainly describes the coming fight in this country on its way because of the situation of people about whom David Kerr writes this week and because we know many people in the situation Kerr describes.

Roger Smith

“The middle class would not exist without organized labor.” So proclaimed Vice President Joe Biden at a recent speech in Ohio. He’s right. And with unemployment stuck above 9 percent, the need for strong unions has never been greater.

The race to the General Assembly a new wild card? PDF  | Print |  E-mail

Just this week with the entrance of Richard Moncure into the race on the Democratic side, the issue for Democrats seemed to be where to have their caucus slated for Aug. 13 — in Warsaw at one location or in each county as the county chairs were considering. With the Democratic caucus Chair Pearl Smith out of town and out of reach, that issue was at a standstill.

Then Monday afternoon, that race got tossed into the can when Moncure announced he was withdrawing from the race. Now, how Democrats will certify their only remaining candidate Nicholas Smith is the issue. And how much support the party will give Smith is another question for Democrats who know the polls show the Northern Neck with Republicans in the majority at 65 percent compared to Democrats at 35 percent.

As for Republicans things have been going swimmingly for Margaret Ransone who had almost 300 folks in attendance at her party at Horn Point last Friday. While

Small town newspapering is where the journalistic rubber really hits the road because of the relative intimacy of the setting.
In addition to the usual stories about local government doings, small town newspapers like The Journal cover a range of stories from 4-H to Little League to church news because these events are
