Bonner: Your mustache is crooked! I remember semi-drunkenly ambling up to you and advising you to apply for a spot in the office last spring. I'm glad I did. Hopefully I might have helped convince you to look into the print biz when you graduate. Either way, I'll be watching through the videoscope. Yeah!
Dunne: You know how I feel about your writing. It almost rivals your Britney Spears karaoke skills. You have all the tools, but you know that. Keep being a reporter - I know you'll own that lax beat. It's been a fun semester - thanks for sticking it out with me. Keep in touch, my man.
Eazy-E: You've shown a lot this semester, and I don't mean your rapping skills. You have the instincts, now you need to fine-tune your skills. Read a book written by somebody other than Tom Coughlin. You have a bright future. I'll get you that six-pack at some point. I won't buy Molson Canadian, though.
Meredith: You care as much about this section as anybody in that office. Don't think that goes unnoticed. Keep working hard. And read, read, read. Now that you're free from Big East, take this semester to focus on your writing.
Joey: You jump-started the evolution. Not to mention my eventual broadcast career. Thanks for that.
Wei: Football guide, woot!
Conroy: My mac heds will never be up to your standards.
Tahmosh: Your record's going down Friday. Twenty-six seconds, here I come.
Levin: Hope you enjoyed London. The office wasn't as fun at 3 a.m. without you.
Doc: It's been a pleasure. I just wish I could stick it out for a full year. Trust your instincts, and never back down. This paper is going to do great things under your watch. I'm excited to see them happen. I'd like to think we'll cross paths in the future. I just hope it's not in, like, Oman or something.
Erinn: I know you're the managing editor and everything, but you should write more often. You're pretty damn good at it.
Andy: I don't need to boost your ego anymore, so I won't get into your writing skills. All I'll say is I'm looking forward to that first book you write, whenever that ends up being. You're a good friend. I'm sorry for cutting out all the good stuff in your stories.
