  1. Where have you been? Did you move or were you sick? I have been anticipating your article announcing Tony Basille running for District Judge in downtown Easton. Or maybe you don't like him and purposely left him out? Either way, where have you been?

    1. Apolgies for the belated reply. Actually, both--had the 'flu and moved house across town, which ate into the time I normally dedicate to this site in the last couple of weeks.

      We definitely intended to include Tony Bassil's announcement of running for magistrate--in fact, I gave him The Easton Eccentric's contact info twice for that very purpose. But apparently whoever did the contacting about that press conference neglected to include us, and unfortunately, it happened while I was ill, or I'd have tracked down his info anyway. That said, at some point soon we'll catch up with him and get him back into the mix.

      Now that things are settling down, expect that not only are we back, but there are some new things coming down the pike for The Easton Eccentric. More on that as I have it. ;-)

      Thanks for reading us! It's definitely nice to know we're making an impact...
