Caroline says: Did you read Coleman's LATEST MONKEY TIRADE?
Ryan says: I just glanced and saw he was droning on again about the bridge collapse.
Caroline says: Ah. Well, it confirms what we suspected all along: that Coleman keeps files and puts labels such as "Duh" on them.
Caroline says: On Tuesday, responding to a request from Pawlenty, President Bush declared the bridge collapse a disaster. We can file that under, "Duh."
Ryan says: Coleman's "Duh" file is probably the largest at the Strib, filling two offices.
Caroline says: It's so big, he had to make another file called "Der."
Caroline says: Some of Nick's most commonly referenced files: "Cliches;" "Monkey, I'm Nobody's;" "Bananas;" "Duh;" "Der;" "People I Made Up To Whom I Attribute Quotes"
Ryan says: "e-mails I probably shouldn't have sent;" "how to be childishly defensive;" "Google searching for Dummies, a.k.a. Me."
Caroline says: "Journalism: Common Rules to Avoid;" "Grammar and What it Means to Me;" "Fact-Checking: Myth or Necessity?"
