Voice Vacates, Heads for Holiday Hills

Dear readers and those being read to: The Noe Valley Voice is now on vacation. While "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life" and other holiday songs are stuck in our heads, it's a good time to say "thank you" for your support and encouragement in 2009. It's tough out there and even tougher outside our fair valley. Kindness and patience are ever more valuable.

So here is the deal and deadlines: You will enjoy this current issue, and we'll be back in January to work on the February 2010 edition. All things editorial are due Jan. 15. That includes Class Ads. For display advertising, you must get in touch with Steve by Jan. 20. And please do. (His number is 415-239-1114.)

Pax et bonum!

--Jack Tipple and Sally Smith, Editors

P.S. The pitiful angel in the above photo bears no resemblance to our favorite photo editor Pamela Gerard, nor is it meant to imply we're disappointed with out present.
