west coast guys

to be more specific have any of you bay area guys gotten you subscription copy of excellence yet? i have not and i figured it maybe a case of their mailing issues but was curious. I had been hearing about the BB2 article and that alerted me that some have been issued. anybody?

toby

Hi Toby,

I don't have mine yet either... It really illustrates the difference in delivery times. Its interesting that I just got an email from GGR PCA about a this month's Nugget being lost for many folks in the bay area, some snafu at the post office...

I checked two bookstores Tuesday night, B&N and Borders. Neither stocked the new latest issue of Excellence.

You guys live in CA, you should be out driving all the time and leave the magazine reading to us guys in the bad weather zones!

I live less than 5 miles from the Excellence editorial office and still haven't gotten mine...

They are printed and mailed out of Kentucky or Tennessee or Mississippi - one of those Pennsyltucky states.

I've always assumed that the perennial tardiness of the magazine was the source for Karl Ludvigsen's title: "Excellence was Expected."

The magazines are not printed at the office. They are printed in the Midwest and shipped from the printers to the various distribution centers around the US. I live in CA, I'm a contributing writer, and I didn't get mine until last Friday night. The midwest gets it first, the east coast gets it second, and we see it LAST.
