THE NEWS HACK'S CREED:
I know more than you.
I make lots more money than you.
I'm smarter than you.
I'm sexier than you.
I appear on TV all the time.
I work ten minutes a day.
I rule the universe.
I'm going to live forever.
You are an idiot.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 2:
A lie isn't a lie when it tells THE TRUTH.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 3:
I've come to realize that the looseness of the journalistic life, the seeming laxity of the newsroom, is an illusion. Yes, there's informality and there's humor, but beneath the surface lies something deadly serious. It is a code. Sometimes the code is not even written down, but it is deeply believed in. And, when violated, it is enforced with tribal ferocity.
--JOHN "OMERTA" CARROLL.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 4:
News isn't news when we don't report it.

Well, for what it's worth (not much) I won't be blogging this weekend. My nearly-five-year-old Dell Dimension 4100 with Windows Millenium Edition went kerflooey -- I think I led to its demise by not being sure how to delete INTERNET FILES, so they built up and built up, so I clicked on the radio button to delete the offline files, and it took twenty minutes, and that may have been too much for my hard drive, which has taken a lot. So rather than try to fix something I probably can't I'll just ante up for new, though I hope I can salvage the few worthwhile files and dirty pictures (chuckle chuckle). I was going to buy a computer anyway in the fall, and it's never pleasant to do something with such unpleasant prodding. On the other hand, after more than two years and no notice it will be interesting to take several days off from creating slogans nobody reads.
