Matter of Opinion

Thursday’s loose thread

When my office was in the old Chronicle Building on Sprague Avenue, I frequently had passers-by tap on the window -- often school kids lined up and waiting to go on field trips. That hasn't happened since I moved to the fourth floor of the S-R building.

Until today. Maybe the window washer was just being friendly, but I suspect it's SOP to alert office occupants so they won't be startled or do something embarrassing. Either way, it got my attention.

What's getting your attention today?

A Matter of Opinion is really a matter of three opinions – those held by the people responsible for the opinion pages of The Spokesman-Review. Check in regularly to find out what they’re up to, what they think and where they differ and to joust with them if you want.
