Its >nice to know that we all have the same problems day to day. I agree too. Newspapering has its own set of problems. Like clients, editors can some times be twits. Now that I am one, not all any more! :-) For example, we had a big snow storm. For seven or more days we had pictures of snow on the front page. Shoveling, making snowmen, clearing windshields (windscreens), etc. etc. I decided to make a snow picture without any snow. So I went to the local library and photographed two kids absorbed in reading a massive pile of Christmas books (right season for it) with light streaming in the window onto them keeping them warm in their refuge from the snow and cold. I took it back and showed it to the editor. She said "Where's the snow?" Sometimes murder doesn't seem such a bad thing. :-) ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch "...nostalgia ain't what it used to be." ...unknown
