indyz 1 #3 July 11, 2002 Check the left hand column. They'll be back on the 17th. They take a week off every couple of months, but this break is a lot longer for some reason. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #4 July 11, 2002 Yep, I went to a presentation by one of their writers a few months ago. It's a really small group that produces the onion, and so they all take vacations at the same time. It's interesting how the onion works. Every monday, each writer has to bring a certain number of new topics to a meeting. They sit around picking them apart, and decide which ones they want to use and which they'll throw away. They add the ones they like to a master list. On wednesday, they put together the next week's issue, picking a variety of topics off the master list. Then they write the articles, and they get published the next week. Sounds like a very hectic job. The guy I saw writes articles for 3 different "characters." They seem to have fun.
