RANDOM realization/question:
After reading a letter from a small Canadian girl, something struck me as odd- so I posed this question: When was the last time I saw the word "singular" not spelled "Cingular"? It's just plain crazy! They have a virtual monopoly on a misspelled word!

Finally a corporate blog written by people who haven't forgotten that life isn't all business, and pertinent information can still have a sense of humor! Is this a biased blogging simply because I aspire to be under the fore mentioned company's employ? Probably so- still, the blog is a big part of what got me interested in the first place. I learn something- whether it be about the industry or the people in it, every time I check it out. Proof positive that this company knows marketing is how masterfully they market themselves, simply by blogging their brains out.

Settin' Wilk Straight-
Attending the journalism seminar made me realize how reckless I had been throughout the earlier part of my career writing for the newspaper. The experiences of the fair brought the potentials of literacy to my attention, and helped me realized what I could do with them. We were all quite aware that the faculty had the right to sensor anything we put in the official school newspaper. If we could demonstrate to the principal and school board that we are capable of writing non-libelous, unbiased journalism, maybe they would let us cover more sensitive issues such as the suspension of a teacher. We learned that the administration could not sensor an out-of-school publication that is distributed in school, and it was our legal right to be allowed to distribute it on school grounds.

YAY! ANOTHER 5 MINUTE FREE WRITE!
GREED
–noun, excessive or rapacious desire, esp. for wealth or possessions.
Greed. What does it make me think of? Being from the generation I am... first, and foremost it makes me think of THE 7 DEADLY SINS oooooOOOOooooooo... but that only leads to the movie "Seven". Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt and the most interesting of all... Kevin Spacey? 1995, holy crap I'm old. Junior year? Damn. Worse yet, beginning of senior year? Augh. So what is greed? I defined it. Who is greedy? Every one I think (to some extent). I personally am guilty of greed. Although I wouldn't consider myself to be a greedy person. Quite the opposite- but still guilty from time to time. In a global sense? Other nations think that our country is greedy. Just because we consume 90% of the natural resources used each year? for leisure, not necessity mostly...??? There's still 10% for the rest of them to fight over! GEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeez- okay, America is greedy. But by those standards- I AM GREEDY! dammit. I eat more food than a small African nation does in a week in about a day and a half- I drive the biggest truck ever- I have a closet full of clothes I never wear- more shoes than anyone with a penis should admit to... so I am globally greedy, but I would give you my last piece of gum if you wanted it. OR my last dollar- what the heck can I buy for a dollar anyway?! You need it? It's yours.
