    So, I’m having a bit of a problem. I need to write something, but I can’t decide what to write it on? ;)

    One of the best things about my LEGO Typewriter is that it's a constant source of inspiration. I have placed it on my desk where, every day, it encourages me to write.

    So much of today's 9/11 coverage feels more like traffic optimizations than actual remembrance.

    I remember the silence coming up to the concourse in the World Trade Center, a place that was never silent.

    (My uncle was fine, though. He wasn't in the towers at all, but for most of that day, we just didn't know).

    (BTW: 9/11 was pretty worrying for me, even though I live in Denmark. My uncle was supposed to be in a meeting in one of the twin towers, so as it happened, and as they fell, we thought he might be in there. This made it very personal for me too, even from so far away)

    I was thinking about writing a story about how 9/11 changed news because it was the first truly online news event of any major significance. But, I feel it will distract from the actual issue, and there is so much published today already about it.

    Non-partisan is this: "Nonpartisanism is a lack of affiliation with, and a lack of bias toward, a political party." It is **NOT** this: "Nonpartisanism is a lack of affiliation with, and a lack of bias toward the facts." (But so many get this wrong)

    How much should a newspaper or magazine cost? It's not the price that defines it
