 Just
off an old dirt road atop a gentle hill deep within the Quinault
Rain Forest down on the southern tip of the Olympic Peninsula all
the way out in Western
Washington state there stands a big tree. Over 1000 years old and
upwards of 75 feet in circumference, it is a majestic old fellow, a
Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata) by name and a little rough around
the edges, hollowed in the middle, and battered and torn at the top
by lightning and wind. A cadre of much smaller trees, (only four
feet across or so) stand closely about like vassals as if to prop up
this royal old timer who is clearly positioned as the elder
statesman in this misty land of conifer giants.

The
Swede - Uncovered Anew  In
the latest in the annals of staff antics that seem to get more
bizarre with each passing day, the missing
and written off Swede
resurfaced at the August release party just as this issue was going
to press. While this may not sound all that strange in itself,
the strange part of course was that she hadn't been seen
actually attending the party but rather turned up the next
morning on the party grounds draped across a picnic table all
naked and unconscious like so much flotsam left behind a high
tide. As anxious staffers wait for the wreaking of glog Swede to regain
consciousness, speculation is rampant about the events that
could have led up to the incident. As always, we'll let you
know more as soon as we do.

In the accompanying pictorial essay, we commence the story of the Fallen Angel.
The words will follow in good time or, more accurately, when
they are approved by the legal department. In the interim, readers have
found it entertaining and a challenge to attempt to fill in the story
that might eventually accompany the photos.
