Friday Funday: Spring Break

While the staff here at The Daily Felltoon has a few more years under our collective belts than the average high school or college student, we're following in their footsteps these next two weeks, and taking a nice spring break.

Frankly, we think after the winter that both Nebraska and Washington, DC experienced, we deserve to have a little time in the sun, to travel about and not be pressured with deadlines.

Of course, for those of you who know us well, you also know our staff members won't be entirely staying away from work. They're not the kind of people to sit around and do absolutely nothing.

Paul will post a few new cartoons at PaulFellCartoons.com over the next two weeks, and online at our Facebook site as well. So if you're in need for new content, Paul will still be delivering his great cartoons over the next two weeks - just not as many of them as usual.

Amy of course will be working at her day job, and taking care of her toddler - which as any mother can tell you, is a full-time job all on its own.

Shawn will be doing a bit of traveling, as well as helping set up our newest office in Florida.

Yes, you read that right - we'll be adding a third location to the offices of your favorite e-mail publication.

We think a more broad scope on the world is a valuable thing, and with his day job relocating, Shawn had a chance to help us expand our view as well.

We're still planning on focusing mostly on issues from the Heartland, as we know most of our readers come from Nebraska and the surrounding states, even if some are located halfway around the world.

We're also still looking for more ways to expand, to bring in more revenue (as we think governments at all levels should also do), and potentially more voices, and to add requested features like "Share This" tags that will make it even easier to share your favorite Paul Fell Cartoons with your friends.

In short, we're growing again, as we think everyone should continue to do, at any age.

Of course, with that comes some growing pains - like not having our daily reminders in your e-mail box for two weeks. To make sure you stay well-informed, we recommend you click daily on some of our favorite news sources, like the New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Wall Street Journal, Al Jazzera, and BBC News.

So, in short, we're going on vacation. We'll be taking a bit of time to enjoy the sunshine, and to do a bit of traveling these next two weeks - but we know you'll be with us when we get back.

Plus we've got sunscreen, and we'll have a few drinks, so we think overall, we'll be fine.
