Cathy Hirko: May 2009 Archives

I was talking to Rose Hayes the other day.

Don't know Rose? She's a copy editor/web editor/pet lover/and just a great person to know.

She also handles our "Wheels of the Week" feature for our Drive section. We get lots of submissions for the feature, but Rose warned me that we could use some more.

So, here's my plug: Send us your submissions, here's how:
If you have a special vehicle, the York Daily Record/Sunday News would like to see a photo. Send a snapshot of your ride, as well as some basic information about the car
and what makes it special, including anywhere interesting you've traveled in it, to:

Rose Hayes, York Daily Record/Sunday News, 1891 Loucks Road, York 17408. Or e-mail your photo to rose@ydr.com. Make sure the subject line of your e-mail
says "Wheels of the Week."

Include your name, address and daytime telephone number, as well as the names of any people in the photograph and when and where the picture was taken. If you want photos returned to you, please include a stamped, self-addressed envelope.

Photos sent by e-mail should preferably be in jpeg format and at least 200 dpi.

It's not limited to cars. We'd also like to see your special motorcycles, trucks,
RVs, ATVs, tractors or anything else with wheels.

Want to see some examples?

Seems like everyone is talking about Facebook and Twitter. I'm on both, but I use each differently. With Facebook, I primarily used for personal notes, news and photos and to keep in touch with those I don't see or get to talk to every day.

Twitter I've taken a more professional route. My "tweets" usually are related to what's going on with the business department. Any time I get a chance to talk to people about Twitter, I recommend they join.

So, follow me on Twitter, and I'll keep you posted on the biz news of York County. I promise to keep my updates short. I have no choice.

After seeing these photos, it will make anyone rethink taking a vacation.

Check them out.

Have you ever had a co-worker do this to you? Or were you ever the person doing the decorating? We've had seen more than a few of these "decorated spaces" at the York Daily Record/Sunday News.

Most recently it was the many photos of Yanni that magically appeared in our sports editor's cubicle. Awwww Chris, we had no idea you were a fan.

Check out our poll on the business page of the York Daily Record's Web site.
We want to know what you think about Harley's possible move out of York County.

Lots of chatter today about Harley considering a move out of York County.

I'm also interested in how many are comparing Harley to Caterpillar's eventual move from York County.

Looks like Boscov's is not moving into the North Hanover Mall. Check out the story.
