The Sports Illustrated folks are putting out a complete daily issue throughout the Games — bravo for them. But do they really need to start blasting their stereo as loud as it goes as soon as they put the issue to bed? Particularly when the ceiling’s 50 feet high, but the walls separating our offices only go up 10 feet? London Calling is a wonderful, wonderful thing, but not on deadline when you’re trying to interview a Hare Krishna temple leader.
Now I know how my college newspaper coworkers felt when I insisted on playing Sloan and Morphine at high volume during production.

Aye – but you have to give them crdit – London Calling!
They did the same thing at the Atlanta games. Putting out a daily issue, that is — I have no idea about their stereo-blasting habits. I kept as many issues as I could, hoping they’ll become valuable someday. Which I realize is silly, but no sillier than collecting miniature pins. (Wait, I did that, too…)
