I received an email from Tom Whipple stating, “Due to logistical problems there will not be a Va News on Monday and Tues November. 8 & 9.” Not getting my morning “Whipple Clips” reminds me how valuable these are, and what a great public service Tom Whipple’s performing in putting them together every day. My understanding is that he does this by hand, that it takes hours, and that he has to get up really REALLY early to get them out by 6 am or so. All for no monetary compensation. Now that’s dedication – thanks Tom!
In lieu of the Whipple Clips, here are a few links I think are interesting.
