You make the call

Good Tuesday morning. I hope everybody had a pretty good Labor Day.

As I mentioned Friday, the General Assembly has booked out of town and doesn't plan to be back until May. That means I'm left with only two of the three branches of government operating full time up here in Cap City - the judicial and executive for all you remedial civics scholars out there.

(Although, given the number of statewide offices and quasi-independent bureaucracies we have here, I often think we should change executive branch singular to executive branches plural, but that's another blog post.)

Thanks to the lottery (speaking of quasi-independent bureaucracies) I have a new off-season obsession to feed. And as election season approaches I'll be ramping up political coverage. And I've got a pretty good story list going of things that I ought to get to between now and the New Year.

But I'm not above a little procrastination taking a few good suggestions.

So what's on your mind? Are there any burning state issues on your mind that a mischievous reporter might want to put on his coverage calendar. Is there anything you've ever wondered about that might make a good story?

Send me a shout via the comment link below or via e-mail at mbinker@news-record.com. I make no promises other than I'll read and consider every suggestion sent my way.
