Old Reporters Never Die. They Always Smell That Way.

     There's something tremendously satisfying about spending a night with old reporting buddies, shooting the shit and arguing about movies. My workplace has changed so much that getting time to do this is at a premium. Ah, we have jut decided that we can't agree on any movie whatsoever; oh lord, this means we'll have to talk ... Conversation - threat, or menace?

We old reportorial phartz like to hang out in each other's homes, because it's cheaper. We are reporters in the 21st century, after all, and no longer make the unbelievably big bucks we once did.

You there in the back, stop laughing.

If you think you once make big bucks by working as one of the ink stained legions, you must have already gone out drinking.

Wait, what? I'm a poorly-paid, overworked minion of the media barons, held in disrepute by both those I report on, those I report to, and those I report for? Why was I not told of this sooner?
