Kudos, ad note, muppets

Pretty tame meeting this morning, no deep discussions about anything in particular, but here go a few editor kudos:

• Citizen Journal: Goal fulfilled with fundraising walk
• ‘Everybody wants their saloon back’ (Spangle bar fire aftermath)
• John Blanchette: Sonics exit Emerald City
• School year budget tops $300 million

In other notes, there’s a new ad at the bottom of business page A9. The spot is booked for Thursday and Saturday for a year. “I can just feel the revenue stream coursing through the building,” said managing editor Gary Graham, formerly known as Big G.

Happy 4th of July, from the Muppets
