Whoa!

Via the GDBF, I found out that Doug Monroe – the “haggard old man himself” – is moving to New York City!

(“Get a rope.”) <– obligatory

I can hardly believe it!

Doug’s blog, Peachtree Screed, is one of the best sources of information about local goings-on, especially transit issues and the machinations of the DOT. He also has a lot to say about old media and new media, and you should listen because he knows what he’s talking about.

Best of luck in Brooklyn, Doug! I know you’ll have a wonderful time. I should introduce you to some of my friends up there… I bet they’re not the people you’d normally rub shoulders with! (And I am?)

Come to the Red Light Café Saturday night to bid Doug adieu. Rusty’s got the info.

    Ha! Every time I hear “New York City” I also think “get a rope.” I thought I was the only one.

    We’ll all miss Doug, and I know everyone wishes him much success in his new position.
