Well, that's it, I'm gone ..... this past Monday, April 30, was my last day with KWES-TV, NewsWest 9, bringing an end to seventeen years of work, in one capacity or another, full-time or part-time .....
The last few weeks were hectic ones, as a new person was moved into my spot, and brought up to speed, trying to make the transition from the outgoing Web Editor to the incoming Internet Content Director as smooth as possible .....
Actually, Ronnie Marley - who worked graveyard shift in the KWES tape room - was already working on the website, making sure overnight developments were posted on the site ..... between the two of us, we were able to make www.newswest9.com THE #1 online source for breaking and developing news .....
Two months ago, when I gave my 'two-weeks notice,' I had urged the powers-that-be at KWES to give Ronnie's application serious consideration ..... the job is now different from the one for which I was originally hired, in 2000 ..... but it's in good hands which are, in some respects, better suited to its new parameters and new vision .....

Welcome back to the 'sphere, Jeff!
Can't wait to hear what new career opportunities you're considering...
Thank you, Eric. I'm glad to be back.
As for career opportunities, I've been considering "Website consultation, design, construction and maintenance" :-)
Seriously, though, there's more work to be had, lately, in freelance writing. I'll pursue that for a while, until the right job comes along.
Woohoo! He's back!!!
Welcome back, Jeff!
