Though the newspaper side of my summer journey has been a wonderful experience, I must admit that the politics has not. That old adage about laws and sausages seems to hold. When the couriers enter the office, I look longingly at them walking down the hall. They bike away to freedom, with no ties, literal or figurative, to the office.

Aggregating their findings, we notice that SUV drivers are not exactly aging gracefully.
