I remember when you first bought it, how proud you were of your crisp dress shirts. To this day, John and I still talk about it. John, who irons his jeans, was so envious when I told him you had bought one. Keep the blog posts coming! Happy travels! Phuong Samuel,

Aunt Freddie Mae would have been proud... I was screaming for you during that testimony! My dad really enjoyed your reading. Where'd you get those sandals, boy?

To unmask that powerful voice of yours must be so freeing, and I can't wait to hear how far it takes you. But I must disagree that imagery can appear in newspaper writing, and does more and more. The push for narrative storytelling has allowed, if not encouraged, journalists to describe our world with all the tools we have..Check out the Washington Post's "In an Instant, a Junkyard of Humanity," a first-person account of the bombing of the Iraqi Parliament on April 12.
