It is better to see something once than hear about it a thousand times. ;)

      The E name discussion was a big hit in our house this morning. It was the “around the table” question of the day. 
       

      We decided to come up with a boy and girl name for each letter of the alphabet: 

      Easton         Easter

      Ebenezer.    Ebony

      Eckehart.     Ecaterina

      Edison          Edria 

      Eegon           Eevonne 

      Efraim          Effemia

      Egerton        Egypt

      Ehlyson        Ehlani 

      Eilon              Eileen

      Ejnar              Ejulliah

      Ekram            Ekanta

      Ellison             Ellory

      Emmanuel      Ember

      Enoch             Enya

      Eoin                 Eowyn

      Epic.               Epiphany 

      Equerry           Equalla

      Erwin               Eralla 

      Eston               Esther

      Ethan               Ettalyn

      Euclid               Euphemia 

      Everett             Evangeline 

      Ewing               Ewalina 

      Exton                Exalla

      Erica has two associations for me. One is Erika Shupe, and the other is that it was the name of the “Brown Owl” of my Brownie Guides group when I joined. Brown Owl is the traditional name given to the main leader of a Brownie unit here in the UK. I remember she always had her hair in a single long plait down her back.

      We use Brown Owl for the main leader in Canada too and Tawny Owl for second in command.

      And now they sound like my right-wing ring, extremist, conspiracy theorist, Trump loving Aunt. 
       

      The media has its issues, but there are still lots of responsible, serious journalists out there. 

      It's the all or nothing, black or white, orcs or Hobbits views. Or as a giant black dog once said, the world is not split into good people and death eaters. 

      The field of journalism has changed dramatically. But saying "they work for the rich" and are "sellouts" is so juvenile and lacks any sort of understanding of the state of the industry. 

      Calling people "sellouts" because they took or kept jobs when their peers and colleagues were being laid off is just cruel. It's also not that deep. Not everyone in journalism is into hard-hitting investigative journalism. There are sports writers and sports casters, arts and entertainment, political analysts, anchors, feature writers, food writers, etc. There's a former Attorney General who writes a garden column and occasionally a piece on local politics. I guess he's a "sellout" too, reminding us when to start our peonies and snap peas. 

      And beyond that, there are still plenty of people blogging and podcasts because they love it, while working their day jobs. Art wants to be a journalist who doesn't "sell out" or "work for the rich?" They can do what thousands of laid off journalists and start blogging. A recent political blog in my state sold for a few million and it brings in around $5 million annually. More in election years. It's a terrible example of journalism and responsibility, but the fact is that someone created it, created content, marketed it, and found readers and advertisers and managed to make money off of it.

      And the good ones get attacked from all sides if they don't promote the attacker's favorite conspiracy theory.
