I'm back......

Late December and early January were quite busy for me. So that's why I've been kinda MIA (missing in action)!

The Saturday after Christmas, I flew to NY to spend time with my family and a few friends. Then I flew to Atlanta to be with TMIL for New Years. We had a good time. I relaxed A LOT. Then we ran into some car problems on the way back to Jackson.

Then I got right back to work and did another "Who's Accountable" report. This idea came from an e-mail I received from a woman I'll call Tasha, who's been STUCK in her marriage for years. She wanted to know Who's Accountable for the law that won't allow her to get a divorce unless her "so called husband" agrees.

Check out the story here and let me know what you think:

On a much lighter and multimedia note, I'm now on www.facebook.com.
My friends Angela and Jeanine have been harassing me about NOT being on it. So now I'm catching up with tons of classmates from Mizzou and NB class of 91!

But it's time for me to watch the Inauguration of the 44th president!

My Classmate from High School...

is the Senior Writer for CNNMoney.com and I was so happy to see him on Headline News Friday afternoon. He was offering his insight on the financial crisis.

Paul R. LaMonica and myself, Joyce E. Brewer, were on the short list of people in the class of 1991 who were adamant about the use of our middle initials. We went to junior high and high school together, played in the band together, and had several classes together. Most importantly, Paul graduated at the top of our class and earned lots of respect from his classmates.


I last emailed him a few years when I found one of his articles online. Here's another clip CNN I found of Paul doing his "thang":
