But in the time that I&#8217;ve been away, I&#8217;ve made sure I&#8217;ve found, read, and thought about a few things to actually write about.

They&#8217;ve shown that, well, they&#8217;re not really journalists but vandals to put it mildly. Further, on the lighter side, they&#8217;ve reasserted my claim that, truth in news can only be in the Sports section.
