... that Harry Connick Jr.'s constant appearances from New Orleans on day time television is becoming less about raising awareness after the hurricane and more about shameless self-promotion.
... freelancing is so much more efficient than spending the day in an office. Chances are, I am spending almost as much time on stories as I did as a staffer, but less time staring at a computer screen or the fuzzy wall of a cubicle.
... that despite that, I miss the newsroom, and I find myself browsing Journalism Jobs and stalking the listings of a few newspapers.
... that my friend working in Venezuela isn't living in the safest environment in the world, but I am certain it will make him a better journalist and person.
... that it is a sad state of affairs when more Americans are overweight (55 percent)than read the newspaper (42 percent).
... that the Ten Commandments judge Roy Moore in Alabama actually has a fighting chance to be governor of that state, an ambition he just announced, which I find to be frightening.
... that I should start a love advice column because I like to act like (and think) I know what I am talking about when my friends unload to me.
... that given too many choices in life, I may never be satisfied and will live in a perpetual state of Limbo wondering if I have made the right move or what it would be like if I did something differently.

dearest sara:
the former judge moore is stirring up quite a storm down in your home state and actually all across the south touring with his 10 commandment statue--the one he commissioned and now owns.
if you haven't read the article about him in this month's atlantic, do so. its scary.
glad to know that it is possible to make a living as a freelancer. i expect you to write a small handbook for those of us who will be returning to the US in mid-december without work.
