DMN editor Mike Wilson has been on the job now, and last month saw his biggest impact on the paper so far, with the departure of a gang of long-time staffers, including columnist Steve Blow. So I thought it was a good time to assess how he’s done since he took over.
Just kidding. Here, again, are a ton of names better for a dog than Story, which is what Mike Wilson named his dog, which is not quite enough for me to call the SPCA, but enough to guarantee that he has a ton of shawl-collared sweaters in his closet and is dying for fall to get here, and also considers “Frank Sinatra Has a Cold” bathroom reading. Some of these may be repeats. Sorry.
