    How many guys?

    In my day, to get a good schedule I'd do the slot on Sundays, often (in fact generally) alone. Definitely not a major metro, but a daily (with some local NFL coverage). Agate took, I don't know, an hour or two. My sections probably sucked, though. There's more than one reason my journalism career was, shall we say, rather short.

    Nothing. That hasn't changed in the least.

    Major metros usually have, or had, one full Scoreboard page of agate every day, plus other agate on other pages as needed. And then updated throughout for final edition. ... Pretty tough job at that level.

    I believe the multinational nuclear deal was appropriate to enter.

    I tested out of College Algebra but I decided to take it anyway on the worry that I might be rusty after not having taken a math class in almost 20 years.

    This morning, we're in the chapter on probability, and the question was "What is the probability of two dice adding up to 7?" Which is a really insulting question, something that we all should have learned how to do in roughly 7th grade. But if that isn't bad enough, he proceeds to write down 1/12 on the board and explain that 2,5 and 5,2 only count as one, as do the other flips. I didn't want to speak up, but he takes the exams straight from the teacher version of the book, and I didn't want anyone to get it wrong if it showed up. We argued about it for five minutes before he looked it up in his answer book and was forced to concede.

    I guess that doesn't disqualify him for being noble though.

    Depends on the possession of the notes / chain of evidence thing, and whether Comey left his notes overnight in his personal refrigerator.

    Dude.

    Do you not realize that posting these personal digs over and over is a bad look? You're oop with eloquence.

    At least you weren't asked to figure it out using arrays.
