Tim's time on the AP Tour has come to an end...

Please don't weep, kind readers; Tim has had a great run on this here blog, but we need him back in the AP skyscraper to do all of his important associate editor-y stuff (read as: help me out with my fantasy baseball team). Tim's last show is tonight in Grand Rapids, so if you're going, give him a goodbye kiss (on the cheek, of course -- dudes, too) or at least a high five.

Of course, we're not gonna just have our booth empty out there! Our newly promoted managing editor Rachel Lux is taking over for Tim starting tonight, as well, and she'll be out there through April 18. If you're going to one of the shows in the next two weeks, familiarize yourself with this lovely lady. Here's what she looks like; she's on the left (and no, the mustache is not real -- at least, I don't think so):



Rachel loves talking about the state of Nebraska, the band Wilco and Cleveland Indians center fielder Grady Sizemore, who may or may not be her fantasy husband. Bring her Doritos and Triscuits and she'll be your best friend for life and/or may even let you cut to the front of the autograph line. Say hi to her!
