Skim milk on the rise…

Over the weekend I heard Mr. Carter say, “If this is the cream of the crop, then God bless the skim milk.” After disastrous sports checks and subpar article on the Stanley Cup Finals, I couldn’t help but feel I was the one those souls who need that prayer.The weekend was pretty intense, waking up early covering games I knew little about and of course, the always pleasant sports checks.Monday’s seminars alleviated some doubts. The most profound nugget of wisdom came in passing from Kenny Irby. He told us “experience is a lifelong learning process. The journey is the destination.” Malcolm Moran gave a much needed lesson on how to successfully write on deadline. Among other things, he advised us to be patient when writing and to not beat ourselves up too much. Every piece of work won’t win a Pulitzer Prize. There’s hope yet for the skim milk.
