A newspaper man:

I really like this post by Doug Thompson on the life of a newspaperman. Thompson says:

"...a journalist is an unemployed newspaperman." I’m not a journalist. I’m a newspaperman. Always have been (even with not working as one) and always will be.
...Home is not only where the heart is. It is also where real news is found.

Thompson, retired from his previous journalism careers, still maintains his Capitol Hill Blue news site and his Blue Ridge Muse blog, and now is reporting and shooting for his home town newspaper, where he's 'retired'. Once a newspaperman, always a newspaperman. Or woman.
