My favorite yankee,

Honestly, this piece wasn't well-thought-out at all--I cranked this out yesterday morning in about 30 minutes before getting in the shower for work because I'd been grappling with it since about four in the morning. It wasn't edited. It was a first draft. I didn't even go back and look at it. I posted it to the Provoketive site here as a draft only and wrote to my editor, Jonathan Brink (who I will be writing back today and telling him, "DUDE! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU POSTED THAT WITHOUT FIXING 'EN MASSE'!" Haha...) to see if he could tone it down. It had no title, no picture... He wrote me back a few hours later and said, "I like it. It's up now as a feature article." So, mistakes and all, it's in the books now. He was good enough to name it and find a picture. For that I'm thankful.

I am also grateful for the dialogue it's created. Some very helpful insight here in this thread, including your own. I appreciate you.
