Quick thoughts

For the second straight week, there is no "Whatever happened to ..." story in the Daily Record. The standard Monday feature has run since the beginning of 2008, replacing the "Day in the Life" stories. The Monday issues are notoriously difficult to fill, as so little happens on Sundays in the Bible Belt. So far, the Monday pages have been filled from Little Rock, first with the inaugural merger issue and today with another story in Warren Stephens' veterans series. We must assume that there will eventually be something local to fill that space, but how will it ever compete with locally produced stories like "Whatever happened to cassette tapes?," "Whatever happened to the afro?," and "Whatever happened to Big Foot?"
