Welcome to Our Great Club!

In this club, we have editors. Also, it is a fashionable club.

Also, this club endorses loyalty to friends. Members know the difference between matters of mere interest, and those of worthiness. Nonetheless, we appreciate the pleasures of frivolity, and are cheery almost always. The club and its members are forgiving of unimportant errors, whether of judgment or calculation. The club's members balance ambition for lives well-lived with a patience borne of humility. From this same shared sense of unpretentiousness stems the group's collectively gracious manner toward newcomers. We, too, were once outsiders, and, I can only imagine, felt keen appreciation for the kindnesses shown us in those first days. I, at least, remember well the gratitude I felt toward the first who placed an arm around my shoulders, and said, "Come on in." I have never since wanted for friendship.

It really is a very good club.
