A small tribute to Jay, RN

So you know how Jill wrote about loving to be around people who she could learn from? I don't want to toot my own horn, but beep, beep. If that's the case, wanting to learn, you should come read the paper with us some night.

Northern Ireland has been at civil war for the last forty years? Really? Jay can tell you about it.

Global warming isn't entirely due to our awful treatment of the ozone layer, and in fact, the earth naturally warms and cools itself in cycles, a few hundred years at a time? Who knew? Jay did.

Young America jumped too crazy, too fast on the sub-prime housing market, and now 4% of them are being foreclosed on, and this, in essence, is affecting Britain's economy as well? Who would of thunk it? Jay. That's who.

I'm kidding around just a little. He talks about this stuff totally unassuming and not "hoitey toitey" at all. I honestly had to close my gaping jaw as it hung open in awe as he told me about that Northern Ireland bit. It's just cool to learn stuff I would otherwise have no idea about. All I'm saying is the boy likes his CNN. And I like him. :)
