    I'm proud to say I've been a loyal reader of Tucson Weekly for quite sometime now.I picked up my first weekly @El pueblo neighborhood center library when it was still a closet with close to 500 books stuffed into rickety bookshelves very well taken care of by the staff of one. The size of that library in juxtaposition to it's location (6th ave. and Irvington) was truly a testament to how unimportant it was to bring new reading material to the low class working poor.

    But, I digress.

    I would like to say, given the fact that I've been such a long time reader, that I , religiously read my favored weekly publication front to back. this isn't the case however, I do have a few columns that I must read every week including: Danehy, all of the events pages, Police dispatch, news of the weird, savage love, red meat, Mine and whomever is unlucky enough to be around's horoscope, ask a Mexican (unfortunately) and most recently the editors note.

    The last editor was interesting enough but now I'm happy to see a female taking over position as editor. I've only read a few of her columns and from what I can tell she can get angry at times but I do believe that
    she ,like myself, is very caring and lovingly invested in Tucson. Her hoorah for the 520 does not seem obligatory in the least. un-fortunately, This last confused me I even read it several times to make sure that lack of sleep and too much coffee wasn't playing the part in my confusion

    This is just terrible editing and writing! I'm very disappointed and you know what Mari? I suggest you step it up. Because, this is very badly written. Which is a shame because you seem to love Tucson and are very passionate about your work. I suggest you step it up!

    I'm no editor or expert on punctuation,grammar etc. Is it just me or did this editors note make ABSOLUTELY no sense whatsoever! There are whole sentences missing for Christ's sake and "its going going to be a game you're going to want to participate" what is that right? I'm perplexed someone please either correct me or back me up here. So, I can regain my sanity for the moment!
