'Twas the issue before Golden Week, when all through the Weekly house not a creature was stirring, not even a computer mouse.

The pages were designed, edited and checked with care, in the hopes that more and more readers would partake of our fare.

The editors were nestled all snug in their beds while visions of headlines and scoops danced in their heads.

The editor in chief with sharp red pencil and I a keen eye for a mistake, had just settled our brains for a short spring break. (With apologies to professor Clement C. Moore)

Yes, the Weekly is taking a few days off, but we'll be back with you May 15.

【お知らせ】今週号は5月8日号との合併号になりますので、来週号は休刊になります。次号は5月15日号となります。
