July 2003

 

 

From The Editor

 

It’s July and as I fast approach my

31st birthday, I have to say it’s
looking like a pretty good
month. Many of you will be get-
ting close to the end of your
summer classes and getting all
excited about finals and papers
due for the start of August. The
days are longer, the nights are
warmer and the clothing is
skimpier. It’s a good time to bug-
ger off to the beach and lounge
around reading the Other Press.
As the sun sets and the light
wanes you can use it to start a
bonfire or save it for emergency
outdoor toileting. We aim to
assist you in any way possible.

This month read about world
events, stay-at-home dads, poli-
tics, potty-mouthed parents,
Douglas sports and of course,
how yours truly had the pleasure
of having a new tattoo etched
into my hide (see photo
above...aint it pretty?) As usual,
I’ve only pointed out a wee por-
tion of the goodies inside. There’s
something for everyone so read
on.

We all hope you are enjoying
our summer issues and as always
look forward to hearing from
you. Write for us, write to us,
write about us. We are here for
you.
