Wednesday, November 05, 2008 A moment of history I happened to stop for coffee this afternoon in a local convenience store at the same time that a Virginian-Pilot newspaper delivery truck drove up. As the driver was setting a stack of papers on the newstand, it dawned on me that this must be a second edition, and that it might be a good idea to grab one. So I now have a copy of today's Virginian-Pilot with President-elect Obama's smiling face covering the whole front page.Watching the evening news, I learned that this was only the third time the Pilot has issued a second edition. The first time was to announce the end of World War II, and the second instance was on September 11, 2001. I think yesterday's election certainly has equal historical significance. posted by Liz @ 7:46 PM | The template is set to display 10 posts.
