The Tomcat lands
An F-14 Tomcat landed on a Simi Valley mountaintop today.
And we'll have the story in tomorrow's Ventura County Star.
The plane was attached to a big crane and was brought in for the permanent display at the Air Force One Pavillion begin built at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. Stephanie Hoops (shoops@VenturaCountyStar.com) will have the story for us.
Also for page one tomorrow, we'll have an advance from staff writer Zeke Barlow (zbarlow@VenturaCountyStar.com) on this week's decision in Washington on base closing and realignment. Naval Base Ventura County may lose up to 6,000 jobs -- many of them to China Lake -- under realignment.
Also for Page One tomorrow, we'll have wire stories on Connecticut's decision to sue the federal government over No Child Left Behind; California Supreme Court's ruling today on the rights of same-sex cuples; Iraq's delay on its constitution; and the break-through on stem cell research.
I think it's time to unleash the infamous, Seymour Butz, and lift the ban on brilliance. Seymour has been suppressed long enough. He is 'Very Sorry', & has sustained a looong time out, learned his lesson, had time to cool down, gather his thoughts, accept responsibility for his actions, and gain new respect for the integrity of the 'VCStar Comments Board'.
I'm confident that only a full ressurrection of Seymour Butz and his new appreciation for the rules is exactly what this website needs to get the comments board rocking again.
Live & Let live.
Your Friend,
