If you've picked up the paper today, you may have run across The Guide, a revamped, inflated, re-font-ed, gussied-up, extremely new-smelling upgrade of the entertainment sections in The Beaufort Gazette and The Island Packet. I'm the editor, Jeff Vrabel. Luckily, on the blog portion of the site here, you cannot see my picture.

The Guide is our new Friday entertainment section, part ouf the the redesigns of the Gazette and the Packet, which we’ve been rolling out here all week. Such a thing can sound like not that big of a deal, but these projects take organizing, calibrating, and three to eight thousand meetings per day, and that doesn’t even count the giant new press that a small army of people has managed to install. It has been, to say the least, a little hectic in here. The guy who does the fonts, for instance, hasn’t slept in two weeks, and no longer even pretends to be friendly to you, unless you bribe him with muffins.
