- Apparently the life and words of Anna Nicole Smith touched a nation. Armageddon cannot get here fast enough.
- Once a geek, always a geek: The Ledger has posted a wire story on college journalism awards for university papers in Mississippi. "The Reflector," Mississippi State's student publication, is portrayed to have won the most awards as well as best overall paper at some competition.
I don't remember much about the lay of the land in collegiate journalism, but "The Reflector" was a piece of shit when I was in college.
I'm blurry on how all this works - during my 12 years at the DM I went to two of these convention/comeptitions, and strictly to drink. But I know that "The Reflector" runs every other week, while the DM is, well, daily. I still have a modicum of geek pride. I guess this is what it feels like when Tom Brady talks about how Michigan is doing at a Patriots press conference. Except not at all.
