Well, as of 1:30 p.m today, we had given away nearly 4,000 yearbooks! I think we can definitely say that distribution was a success, especially since we'd only been handing out 2009 yearbooks for two days.

Ladies and gentlemen, the 2009 Razorback yearbooks are here!
Take a minute to let that sink in:
THE. YEARBOOKS. ARE. HERE.

Best day ever? I think so.

These are the first full-color yearbooks in the history of the Razorback so don't miss out on getting your copy. There are 352 pages of people, concerts, profiles, football, greeks, baseball, the ice storm, campus events and more. And not that I'm biased or anything, but I happen to think this is the best yearbook this university has ever seen. :)

So swing by the Union connections lounge next week and grab a copy or if you miss the staff there, you can come by the yearbook office any time and pick one up. We are located in the basement of Kimpel, room 119L.

See you soon!

It's been a while since we've posted, mostly because the new editor, Helen Chase has her hands full trying to get started on the next issue of the Razorback!

Sometime soon there will start being regular postings here, all about the fun stuff going on down in the basement of Kimpel. But in the meantime! I'm taking a moment to update and share a spectacular moment with you. It's sure to amuse, because that's something Shannon and I do well.

At some point today the yearbook staff received three advance copies of the 2009 book. Which means the rest of them are on a slow boat from China on their way to us. But these copies give us a chance to check them out before they arrive. Helen told Shannon about their arrival, who told me. After I finished screaming like a 15-year-old girl who just got asked to the prom by the quarterback of the high school football team, I jumped in the car and ran to the office to grab one.

Now, Shannon is in Austin, Texas, so she has no way of seeing these gorgeous books until they all come in and we can send her one. Since I didn't want her to miss out on the first look at what we worked so hard on all of last year, we rigged up a solution.

Thanks to the wonders of technology, we were able to video chat and I showed her the pages of the book. And thanks to the wonders of my roomie's iPhone, you can now see the whole ridiculous thing. :)
