Key Votes is all funned out
2007 July 12 - Key Votes
Life in the Key Votes department has a lot of perks, but planning fun things is not one of them. I mean, we have to plan something fun every time another hundred votes go live. And the interns write and check the summaries faster than we staffers can think of ways to celebrate!
Here we are over 500 (500!), and it seems like we just hit 400 three weeks ago. Oh wait, we did.
Squirt guns? Been there. Piñata? Done that. Tattoo of the Capitol Guy? That's gonna to need approval by the Board.
We'll think of something. Mean time, just give these interns a round of applause. It's the least we can do.
