October Preview

Welcome back to another year of fun, unruly readers. We hope you like the new features. Just before we published this page, we learned that our little fifth column website won “Best Local Blog” in the Metro’s Best of the South Bay reader’s poll. Members of Team Unruly cast all of 8 votes on the matter, which tells us that either nobody voted in the category or we have a lot of fans out in laptopville. One thing’s for sure, East Side trustees and Esperanza Zendejas didn’t cast votes our way. Maybe they did; we know how they love to see their names in print.

How do you like them apples, Dr. Zendejas? We won an award too, and we couldn't have done it without your help!

We hope you like the Kiko Award idea. Send suggestions, comments, Kiko Award nominees, hate mail and encouragement to Teamunruly@unrulyrus.com .

We were going to convert to a bi-monthly publication, and if the current climate holds in East Side, we just might slow down production in the coming months. But not now. Next month we’ll do a special election feature, giving our opinions on ballot initiatives and throwing a little help to any community looking to oust a few nincompoops on their local school boards. We’ll also send out another Kiko.

And for those eagerly awaiting chapter two of the unauthorized Esperanza Zendejas biography, keep the faith. It has to be long to do the piece justice. Spread the word: new issue will appear October 15. Stay informed and be unruly.

And thanks for the award, Metro and unruly fans. Go out there and do something for those good people in the gulf coast states. Peace.
