It's really nice meeting another writer. Yeah, it is. So, what do you write? | Oh, just a bunch of health and fitness stuff. What about you? Well, I'm into health writing too. | Get outta here! Really? Like last week, I covered this 80-year old woman who founded a bone marrow foundation 50 years ago. So, was it like a feature covering her contributions over the years? Oh, no. I write the obits. She died last week - natural causes. More wine?

Pixton Wow! Whose house is that? I'm doing a feature on celebrity mansions and one of the actors refused to allow me access to his new home. | Then how'd you find his house? I used public records to get his address, plugged it into Google Earth and voila! | Isn't that a violation of privacy or something? No, not at all. Well, I actually have to get this to my editor ASAP so... | Oh, yeah sure. I have to get going anyway. You're still coming to my charity brunch right. Yeah, yeah of course! | Good, then I'll see you on Saturday. Jean, are you on your way? The brunch already started. | Achoo! I'm so sick I haven't left the house in days. | Hmm, that's weird "days" you say. Well, feel better. | Thanks, I'll try. Achoo! Everyone is asking for you. Did you get Jean? | Yeah, she's not coming. She's been sick for a few days. Too bad. I was looking forward to seeing her. | Hey, isn't that Jean in front of her house. How'd you get this? I was messing around on Google Earth. That's a snapshot view of her house yesterday. | Yesterday? She doesn't look sick to me. Pixton
What do you think about Google Earth’s street view project?  What are some of the ways you envision using this tool as a writer?  Any cons?  I’d love to hear your thoughts on the subject.

Mr. Treasury Secretary! | Mr. Treasury Secretary! | Grace, what's your question? Publications are being hit hard, is there a writer's bail out under consideration at this time? Yes. I mean we've bailed out just about everyone else. Writers deserve several billion thrown their way too. Hey! You need to stop daydreaming and help us with these boxes. | Yeah, HR says we need to get out of here by five. Sorry, I was having my bail out fantasy again. | You can say that again. The only bail out we're gonna see is our severance package. | Well, you can forget that sister!

Spencer, you wanted to see me. How's the feature looking on excessive testing in elementary schools? It's coming along nicely. | Are your done interviewing the folks down at the department of education? Yes. But, I'm on my way to interview those opposed to the testing. | Great, the readers need to hear both sides. Hey guys it's that reporter lady!

Where is it?! No, I just don't get it. | Any luck in here? Honey, I'm so sorry. I don't understand what happened. I mean I was editing your stuff when Brian walked in and... What's that? Eh, what's going on in there? What the... Are those my pages? | Look dad, I'm hitting the bull's eye now. From your office? | Brian, where did you get those papers? But, why would you do this? I don't understand. | It was mom's idea. Yeah mom. When you were reading dad's stuff you said it was only good for target practice. So I just thought... | My idea? What?! You always wanted to teach him how to play better. | Am I in trouble?

Not today lady... | Hold the door! You're not the only one running late. C'mon, c'mon. Hurry up already. Twenty-five minutes later... | Off the record, we'd love to publish your book. I'm glad to hear that. | Before we move forward let me bring in my colleague. Hey, I just got the thumbs up. I can't believe it. Okay, I gotta go. Janet,this is the writer I've been telling you about. | Oh, we've met. Really? When?
