Not just rock stars and Vice Presidents have special needs when they travel. Perhaps you wondered about the “Downtime Requirements” of the Herald Editorial Board when they stay in their l337 diggs at the Driskill in Austin or the Tribeca Grande in New York. Well, in a spirit of full disclosure, and so that the little people might have a glimpse into the lives of jet-setting virtual journalists, we give you…

    Why do the Cristal bottle’s have to be kept at arm’s length?

    What a waste of space. I mean I notice lately no comments hardly lately, hardly any stories being posted and now this? Obviously this isn’t real and is making fun of Dick Cheney’s tour rider information that was recently published, but still… What was the point of this?

    Perhaps the Herald has finally jumped the shark? No doubt when the Stratics forum is opened that’ll be news again.

    There’s plenty going on in SL, if you look for it. You could always advertise for some more staff.

    ah, that’s better! Except, you know, Wyborowa is much better, as is Stoli. The Cristal always seems to have this flat snap to it I don’t like.

    Well, I don’t know why you boys are all pouting here. Why don’t you just write an article for the Herald? I’ve just been too busy but hope to come through for them soon.
