What am I going to put in the paper?

This column was my answer to that question, dear readers. As I began to type this and realized it all sounded better in my head (as most columns tend to do), I realized that maybe snow days aren’t that great. Sure I get to catch up on some of my favorite TV shows that I’ve fallen behind on this winter, but I also have to come up with something entertaining for the next day’s newspaper. Things are just as hard on the readers, as they are charged with the task of reading whatever it is I come up with.

Getting back to the snow day itself, I experienced the highs and lows on Thursday. I got to eat meals on a regular schedule (a rarity for the sports journalism community), watch some TV and read a few chapters of the The Hobbitt to gear up for the movie this weekend.
