Maybe we can all learn something from such an experienced long-time Northern hand. (You have been here a long time, right? How else would you form such well-informed opinions about Northern issues and know what's important to those of us who have lived here for decades unless you were one of us?)<BR/><BR/>You're right - no one should be forced to write about something on their personal blog that isn't truly important to them. That's why it is a personal blog - we get to write about what we care about after hours, when most of the time our day jobs heavily involve all sorts of Northern issues, that we can't, or simply don't want to, write about on our own time.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for understanding that A, and taking the high road. I look forward to your link.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02836796217845889033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35316145.post-318111239992723282008-11-28T11:44:00.000-07:002008-11-28T11:44:00.000-07:00I've been thinking about whether or not I should g...I've been thinking about whether or not I should give you a topic to write about. I've decided I'm not going to pick a topic. <BR/><BR/>I don't think it should have to be a forced thing for you to write about something going on in the daily lives of northerners/Ykers, whatever it may be. I think it was wrong of me to expect you to write about what's going on in this fair city because I think you don't honestly care about what is going on. That, or you just don't have it in you to write about something you yourself feel passionate about in the community.<BR/><BR/>A.The One Man Armyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04957312102985621974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35316145.post-64529339147324344252008-11-26T21:54:00.000-07:002008-11-26T21:54:00.000-07:00There's no such thing as a "fake" reporter, except...There's no such thing as a "fake" reporter, except maybe the guys on the Daily Show.
