This means that you have more than a casual invitation to visit The Weekly Reflex. When I was a child, the office of the Inland Printing Company was dim and there was the smell of Clyde Eppersons (remember him?) cigar intermingled with the smell of printers ink. Newspapers were strictly romantic but the office was sort of scary, and no child would willingly go in there, unless he had some VERY IMPORTANT business, like paying his parents subscription bill. Nowadays, though, while the back room hasnt changed much the front is clean and papered, and children and adults are welcomed to visit and see the workings of a small country newspaper. Manager Andy, Mr. Anderson, is everyones friend and super salesman to boot. No one could ever accuse Ernie Little of smoking a cigar, but he is the office manager to welcome any and all into the "inner sanctum of the Inland.
