Maintaining high standards of clutter for over 25 years: If you were on one of the student media staffs I encountered during this span your picture might well be in one of the layers of my bulletin board.

Listened to Prairie Home Companion’s 2010 anthology show tonight with Arlo Guthrie as a bar owner in an episode of Guy Noir eschewing sing-alongs by intoning “This song is my song, these words, I wrote ’em, they came from inside me me, deep down from my scrotum.”
Perhaps the most creative rhyming scheme I’ve heard in a while.
My transcription is not guaranteed but I’ll remember the rhyme.
Only Garrison Keillor could tie together the internet, health care reform, the collapse of the newspaper industry and ear worms into a cogent perspective.
Grammar lesson du jour. Did not know this phenomenon was called the grocer’s apostrophe?

We’ve all seen it and cringed: The sign advertising “Antique’s for Sale,” the one in the supermarket boasting about it’s “fresh cucumber’s,” or the sign on the neighbor’s house saying “Welcome to the Smith’s.” Few among us (or so we hope) don’t know that those are wrong.

Time Magazine polls lists Jon Stewart as nation’s top newscaster. The poll apparently came as an afterthought that wondered aloud who is the most trusted man in America after the death of Walter Cronkite.
Shocking as it might seem, Jon Stewart probably IS the best newscaster on TV.
Here’s what you get in a 30-minute show: 10 minutes of headlines; 10 minutes of features/skits; and 10-minutes of interview with a newsmaker.
Sure, he makes the points with humor, and he’s quick to call his schtick “fake news,” but there is a lot of TRUTH amongst the jokery.
For newspapers looking to think outside the rack, this is a great idea… Making newspapers fun — what a concept.
