SandBox Comments: Aspen Daily News/Johnny Boyd "The more things change, the more they stay the same"

Don't worry, all you followers of SandBox who're not familiar with the Boyd aka Johnny aka the Snomasokist.

He'll grow on you.

Sometimes like the spread of a case of gout.  Or a case of hives.

Sometimes like a warm, fuzzy blankie on a cold winter day.  Or like a straight shot of excellent tequila after the initial shock dissipates.

So true.

"The more things change, the more they stay the same."

"Truth goes through three stages. First it is ridiculed. Then it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident."

scott condon needs to grow one.
even a small one.

or is he so lazy he just uncritically takes skico at their word--- rarely presenting a more thoughtful article. it's easy to regurgitate corporate PR for your article.

bil dunaway is rolling in his grave at the corporate mouthpiece the times has become under the new corporate hatchman/costcutter sent in from reno to make more $, journalistic integrity be damned.

corporations are ammoral. so must skico's kaplan and laing be to keep their jobs working for people who sell weapons to almost anyone or any country on earth. [read lots of people die in the war economy]

I don't think Bil ever made his peace with Swift owning the Times and that was one of the things that made his illness that much worse.

Swift Communications does not fit in the RF Valley. Never has and they should exit and sell out on both Times and PI. It's pretty certain they're not going to change enough. It's a question of fit from values and ethics not changing content at this point.
