FROM JUNE'S DESK

June A. Laughter, Managing Editor

The flight is booked, hotel reserved and Friday I'll be on my way to San Francisco for the training session with Zynga for the Players Advisory Committee. I'm anxious, excited and quite eager to dive in to whatever lies before me. Although I'm not looking forward to the sore backside from the long plane trip from coast to coast, I'll probably forget all about it once I see the city lights reflecting off of the Bay. I consider it a great honor and privilege to be going to not only represent The Daily Post but also you, our members and fellow gamers. I want to thank you all for your continued support and interest in our publication. With you behind me the possibilities are unlimited.

The closet thing I can think of describing a clan is a group of players who get together for their nightly or weekly card game. Only we do it in cyber space, usually daily. Our Universe is ruled by Facebook...
