Hey LTTE veterans - what happens next?
Edited on Wed Aug-10-05 12:30 PM by Richardo
I fired off a letter via e-mail to the editor of the Houston Comical er, Chronicle this morning.

Do they acknowledge receipt via return e-mail? Give you advance notice of publication? Pay union scale? :)

If you're interested, LTTE here:

1. Usually they call you and say, "We may plan to print your letter."
That is, if they plan to print it. If they don't, they don't say anything, at least in my experience.

I saw your LTTE in the TX forum. Good work, comrade. :thumbsup:

5. damn fine letter
makes perfect sense. I am sure there were plenty of other ways to balance the budget, but Republicans are vicious creatures

nominated your original thread---it should be on the G page by now

12. I decided to retire TOP last night, but I couldn't find a suitable
new sig line, so I'll keep looking. Good idea on your LTTE, they have been known to edit those things!
