Right, so I have a piece in the WSJ today (9/19). As freelancing goes it’s about as high as I’ve ever landed. But this town is a benighted wasteland. I got the entire stock of the local newsstand (there’s only one stand) and that was two! I need some more for files and grandparents and suchlike. Anyone with better access want to pick some up for me and get them out here? I’ll gladly reimburse. ---

:looks across parking lot at WSJ printing plant: Yeah, I know where I might be able to find a few… E-mail me your info, and I can get a bunch out to you (address is in profile). ---

Thanks, Hal! You’re a peach! Or, um, something. If you don’t like peaches. ---

Aw, at least give us a link to the article, Nate. ---

If I’d seen this earlier, I could have snagged some of the leftover ones at the school of business before I left for the day. But since I just got home from work, I’m not driving back. It does look like Hal’s got it taken care of though. ---
