Please keep in touch
The value of the Beacon Journal Alums blog depends on you. We have a backlog of items culled from old Tower Topics, but we need more information on what former and retired BJ types are doing today. We have not heard from many of you and your old friends are wondering what happened to you.
One of our retiree viewers says he is getting so old that if he has any friends in heaven, they are going to think that he just didn't make it. As many of you know, the retiree mailing list on our website is from information provided years ago. The Beacon Journal will not provide an update, so there could be a lot of people on the list who have gone to one of those places the USPS does not reach. Check it and let us know if we need any updates.
We would like to know where you have gotten too.
As always, we would like to receive information and photos to let others know about you and your family. If you cannot email photos, let us know, You can send them regular mail and we will arrange to scan them and return them to you. The Commentary section of our web site was added for opinion pieces that needed to be plainly labeled as commentary. If you want to add your own commentary or have content that might interest BJ types, please send e-mail to hliggett@sbcglobal.net.

Harry, here is an email I received from a good friend, Gene Foraker, that might be of interest:
I went to his site http://www.bokbluster.com/ and registered for his
email list.
I left a comment that I missed seeing him in the Beacon and that it is
not the same paper after going so far to the left. It must be part of
their plan to increase their subscriber base in this declining business
by leaning so strongly only to one side and upsetting the people on the
other side.
Chip:
Thanks, Gene. I miss being in the BJ but it's not the same paper
anymore. I'll put you on the email update list for Bokbluster if
that's okay.
Me:
Thanks Chip.
I'm a good friend of Ott Gangl (but much younger), if you remember
him. Most all of the ex employees miss the old Beacon.
Gene
Chip:
Ha. Tell Ott everyone's younger than him. Those were very good times
