Jessica Pasko Appreciation Day
The one and only.
Today is Jessica Pasko Appreciation Day on AOA.
Jessica is a big part of AOA's success. She's always finding interesting stuff to post about, whether it's a person with an odd talent or a little-known ethnic market or an unusual museum.
She's also always willing to help out, picking up a pizza for the TOP or sending along an event for Stuff To Do This Weekend.
And did we mention she's a fun, cool person?
Jess, you're the best. Thank you.
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

Yay, you're famous!

I want to go on record stating that Jessica Pasko is, in fact, the cat's pajamas and the bee's knees.

Three cheers for J-Day! Jess, you totally deserve your own day! I always love reading about quirky little things I've never heard of - that go on right here in the Cap Dist!
AOA should let some local bars know, so Ms. Pasko can get her vino on.

Jessica should be appreciated every day, but it is nice to take time once a year to make it official!

Yea Jess!
Even before meeting her mastiff, I could tell Jess was special. I will spend today sending thoughts of White Russians in her general direction.
There is no finer use for 12-21.

Aw, well, gee. I'd like to thank the academy, and uh, my clearly nonexistent hair dresser and .....
If only you could see me now -- did you know it's actually possible to turn 8 shades of red?

Happy Jessica Pasko Appreciation Day! Everybody put your ceremonial Jessica Pasko sunglasses on your head, wrap yourself with your fur-lined Jessica Pasko winter coat, and write something special today!

Jess is a great addition to this blog. She does a excellent job on all her pieces.
By the way, I was checking out the web traffic for various local blogs on compete.com and All Over Albany is kicking butt!!!!! Way to go! You've got more readers than some newspapers around here. I hope you keep growing and that more advertisers realize what a great audience you have.
