May/June FAJ

I contacted the new people (Vintage Media; apparently John Calderone has sold FAJ), and they told me that the May/June issue was just mailed this past week due to "technical issues". I hope it's not an example of what's to come. But I want to thank Chief Calderone for all of the issues and books he has published. I have greatly enjoyed every one. I'm sure that John (who may be getting long in the tooth just like I am) would like a rest from all the hassles, deadlines and myriad other problems inherent in the publishing world.

I do not get home delivery, have to schlup into town. Was going tomorrow to get my sports paper, will let you know. Man, I was hoping to have it there.
 
Typical of what happens when small businesses owned by someone who loves what they do and manages the baby that they grew into a robust entity- is bought out by private equity/ venture capitalists who just want the maximum money. Maybe I’m wrong , hopefully I’m wrong but all too often the attention to detail and customer focus disappears.

Doesn't have to be a small business that proves your point Cap. Around 2012 United Airlines took over Houston's beloved Continental Airlines.

For several years afterwards, everyone in town felt it was easy to tell which uniformed United flight crews originally learned the job at Continental.
