Erin: So, tell me, what have I missed?
Nora: Well, I think Ed's trying to get Bryan to reduce Cookie Monster's sentence...
Scooter: And Gonzo boiled the pool, and Red was mad at him...
Beige: And Sam's trying to join the Birdkateers...and he's finding that it's not what he expected.
Storyteller: So, in general, business as usual. Now, tell us, how was New York?
Erin: Just fine, just fine.
Nora: What about those conferences?
Erin: One of them was a talk on investigative journalism, by some of the writers from the New Yorker. Lots of interesting stuff...and during the Q&A session I got to go up to the mike and ask a question.
Scooter: Wow...what'd you ask?
Erin: Just a question on whether they thought journalism schools were putting too much emphasis on the inverted pyramid.
Beige: What's that, something about the architects in Egypt misreading the blueprints?
Nora: No, it's something to do with writing news stories. What else did you go to?
Erin: A little talk on how history's portrayed in the movies, by some of the movie critics. Very informative and very funny.
Storyteller: Oh, I know, history's supposed to be all interesting...but your silly creature history teachers just ruin it.
