Back in the Saddle

(Mat-Su Valley) After a hiatus of several months, ASP is back. Jellaby Baumgartner, editor of ASP, apologized to those who made the effort to check in with the website on a regular basis, only to be left hanging with no explanation. Because of previous travel commitments, Jellaby was unable to continue posting, and Akidis was “unable or unwilling” to manage the website alone in his absence. But, Jellaby is back for good, and says his priorities are now “correctly ranked.”

Jellaby commented on the tidal wave of news that took place in his absence. “There’s a lot that’s been going on, for sure. It’s a hell of a lot of ground covered,” he said. “That’ll teach me to never turn my back on what’s happening in the legislature. Alaska is never a boring place. I did manage to keep up with some of the AGIA issues while I was gone, though I plan to do a thorough review of the bill soon.”
Jellaby says he plans to stay in state indefinitely. “I have no plans to travel over the next year, which is good because the year is turning busy. The PNWER conference, education spending, gas tax this fall: Hold on tight.”
