I think I mentioned to a few fellow AGSers (a very long time ago) that I'm a journalist for my school's newspaper staff.Ã,  Ã, Actually, I was associate editor for over a year.Ã,  But the thing is, a day or two ago, I was informed that the editor-in-chief couldn't handle it anymore (she was stressing out from not knowing the how to use the new program or something) and she wanted out--so now I've been promoted to the head editor, which is something I never expected to happen in the timeframe that it has.Ã,  (I didn't expect to become editor-in-chief until next year, at the earliest.)

There's a new website, just starting up, that is entirely politics related.  I don't want to spurn any big political discussions on the board here, but I was asked to put the word out and I thought posting the link here would be a good bet.
