We know that when we launched this site, we were going to aim to deliver cutting-edge product and viewpoints from all sorts of angles of the world. Talking heads zooming in from the stratosphere, delivering to you, America, their never-ending stream of conscious psychobabble for your cultural indigestion.
And then, we went away. For almost two weeks. We understand that this has upset you. But there are two reasons/excuses for this delay. First, the most pressing.
Something awful has happened to our corporate offices. Okay, fine- we don't have a corporate office. But we do rent some space above a doctor's office. Anyway, the editorial staff had been nailing down some of the finer points of Project X (more on this later), and they had spent most of the weekend of the 8th at the office, storyboar...ermmm, OUTLINING the concepts and future of the site. They all agreed to come in late on Monday as a reward for their weekend vigilance.
While we can't tell you what awaited them Monday Morning, we can give you a hint:
WE WERE BOMBED BY THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT!
That's our office, the corner 2nd floor. Turns out that the good Dr. Sanjay Gupta downstairs had been performing illegal abortions in the back of his office after hours. We wish his and his family the best, as they face the legal system, the insurance denials, and the almost-certain dosage of racial comedy.
Project X - this is big. We were able to pull something off. Something that will be documented in the next week or so, and this is the reason why we haven't posted any new columns (we haven't received any). You'll see...
Well we need to go sift thru the remains of our offices. We can't let Homeland Security see what we keep on our hard drives.
yours in chaos,
THE REMAIN ALERT EDITORIAL BOARD
