From One "Publisher/Managing Editor" To Another
Now that Dan Patrick's megalomania is manifesting itself in a state senate run that will eventually require him to step back for a time from his vast media empire, it would seem like a good time for our good friends at the Lone Star Times to drop the goofy Publisher/Managing Editor title(s) and just go with Editor.
Even that seems a little stuffy, but titles are fun, so long as we don't go off into silly territory.
That's just this publisher/managing editor's opinion, anyway. :)

Only as long as we don't get into silly territory, Cap'n?

I like Dan.

Tom: The Cap'n frequently paddles his kayak into silly territory. But I'm not a bigshot media mogul/pol. :)
Rob: He's likable, as megalomaniacs go, and maybe he won't sell out on property taxes like a typical pol.

- Normal Sports Anchor, to...
- Self-important Sports Anchor, to...
- Failing Restaurateur, to...
- Psychiatric patient, to...
- Minimalist Radio Programmer, to...
- Riding on the coattails of Rush Radio Promoter, to...
- Rush mimic Radio Host, to...
- Don't have Rush anymore Radio man who said O'Reilly would bury Rush Radio Promoter, to...
- Poster Boy for White Flight angry, over taxed white man, to...

- Thinking he could be an elected official of an reasonably minded electorate
One word comes to mind...delusional.
