If you're wondering about the rest of the stories ...(The Last Laugh)
We journalists tend to leap from one news item to an other, but must transition from yesterday's reports to today's, and what they may imply for tomorrow.
As editor, I tend to report the here-and-now, often with a request to "stay tuned." For readers who buttonhole me at conferences asking, "What's up with your daughter?" or "How are the cats?"--here's an update.
My sailing career
No, I haven't slept out on the sailboat yet. But then, I haven't tipped it over yet either. So far I have taken it out six times, four times with help, once alone in a light breeze and once with a non-sailing colleague. Why no overnight yet? I must be becoming mature, because on the night before my 60th birthday, when I was planning to camp out, several factors indicated it wasn't the best of ideas:
* The Stanley Cup final game on TV went into double overtime, so it was pitch black at 11 pm.
* The pier was about a foot underwater and slimy with algae due to heavy rains earlier and the lights were out.
* More rain was forecast for the night.
