    Tom, I think I'm starting by sending a resume for your job. Let your superiors know.

    The Hungry Horse News has no vacancies. We're a choice staff. Perhaps you should look into the Roswell opening.

    That, of course, assumes your job is actually better than mine.

    Sorry, you have the wrong guy. I'm knocking out the community-league over-65 softball tab. The 50-year-old guy-ahead-of-me-who-I-don't-want-to-offend-because-we-have-some-type-of-formal-union-as-sportswriters is completing the Pop Warner tab. I'll send him your regards.

    Let's see, I ask a question, two guys with 22,000 posts decide to split hairs on wording, it becomes a barely-related back-and-forth. Another ho-hum SportsJournalists.com transaction.

    How many shops have background checks? Seems like the list is still pretty big.
