  • Conference in DC

    I am attending the credit union conference in DC and am amazed at the big name folks here: former prime minister Tony Blair, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and a slew of senators and house reps. Not to mention having met so many nice people. Wow! – Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone Location:9th […]

  • Hear ye hear ye. Another hearing

    How crazy! Three hearings in one week. I think next week will be thin on the hearings. Not sure if that’s good or bad for me. I have proposed some interesting stories from all this to my editors. I’ve got to do some research today or tomorrow. Excited to see my stories unfold through the […]

  • A big surprise

    I had a huge surprise yesterday. While I was in a senate hearing yesterday, in walked the incomparable Elizabeth Warren. She’s an amazing woman and I witnessed her strength and intellect first hand. It was an amazing day in the life of this South Georgia boy! – Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone Location:DC

  • Waiting for my first hearing

    I am sitting in a hearing room in the Rayburn building, an hour off from my first reporting of a hearing. I am so stoked. It’s an empty room for now. – Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

  • Nervous excitement.

    In the coming days, I will be covering two hearings in DC. One at the senate and the other at the house. I am nervous, excited and completely out of my comfort zone. I can’t wait! I was talking (read: texting) with one of my professors when I commented “who would have thunk it?” She […]

  • Preparing for my first journalism job

    It has taken a bit but I have finally started a new job. The last two weeks I have been in training classes. I admit it’s been grueling, learning new stuff. But I feel like I will be fine. Certainly it will be a bumpy start. Why would it be any different than previous endeavors? […]

  • Tourist activities of a DC transplant

    As a new denizen of the inner beltway, I have been partaking of the many activities this city has to offer.  The museums, parks and other interesting haunts are cultural salve for someone from the culture-free zone of South Georgia – unless you count Saturday night frat parties on Frat Row! When I first arrived, […]

  • Stinky plant

    The titan plant at the US Botanical Gardens in DC. According to the literature from the USBG, the plant is said to have a strong odor. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, the odor dissipated by the time I visited on 7/22/13. The line was long, but moved quickly. It was an awesome experience. I recall having […]
