One of the devoted employees who has handled much of the Your Town calendar information that you send in will be retiring this week. Many of you have had phone or email conversations with Debra Alexander. Some of you may have spoken with her in her previous role as assistant to the newspaper's ombudsman. Or you may have talked to her when she took your customer-service related calls. Currents thanks Alexander for her decades of service.
Now, if you want your community events to be included on a calendar, you can submit the info online to all Pilot sections in one place.

Venusse Navid, our editorial assistant and reigning Employee of the Year, tipped me off on an interesting tidbit this week.
Seems Hallmark, the greeting card magnate, is issuing a series of jovialities designed to cheer you up in case you are currently out of work in this worthless economy.

I've been at The Pilot for almost 32 years.
I came to The Pilot when there was a much smaller business staff. There was a business editor, one reporter and an editorial assistant. The business editor was reporting, too, so we took turns, but we covered everything from retailing to financial institutions to consumer issues, telecommunications, economic development.

Andy Warhol was coming to the University of Utah.
The date was Oct. 2, 1967, and I was editorial assistant on the Daily Utah Chronicle, the U.'s student newspaper. Warhol at the time was a revolutionary artist, a man who was turning convention on its head, the creator of fabulous silk screen prints of JFK and Marilyn Monroe, the Campbell Soup can painter, the director of strange underground films.

The Maine Debate this week centers on a drug that has been demonized and celebrated: marijuana. Join our online discussion on the Opinion page of bangordailynews.com.
