Remember me?

I feel like cousin Oliver from the Brady Bunch. The character who was on the show but you probably forgot all about.
I was bummed out that I missed the rest of the workshop. I would have much rather being learning about numbers than burying my uncle but I am glad I had a chance to meet everyone.
As for my internship - I made the drive from Los Angeles to Denver on Saturday, non-stop (don't try that at home, kids). I left my house at 4AM and finally made it in to Denver at 11PM, after a scary adventure through the Rocky Mountains where I came across a snow storm. Just picture a 1988 Honda Civic with no horsepower going 10 mphs on the highway with trucks whizzing by and dummping snow on my car...
Denver, itself, is a beautiful city. Everywhere you look, you see nothing but mountains. The only bad part is it takes a day or two to adjust to the alititude since you are 5,280 feet up.
Work so far has been slow. We had two days of training but I finally hit the ground running tomorrow morning. There are 9 interns total at The Post including two Dow Jones Copy Editors (Rusty, Amanda from the Austin camp says hello)
More to come later...
