...four weeks washing cutting boards in exchange for a room in the dusty corner of a cellar. I prepared myself for anything by bidding adieu to pride, English, and unscarred forearms. When I arrived early one August afternoon, the kitchen staff was having their family meal before the lunch rush and invited me to sit with them. I couldn’t understand a word that was flying back and forth across the table; two months away from classes had erased any knowledge of Italian.

...serious policy issues and short on one-liners, in keeping with the subdued tone of the campaign throughout the day as the nation remembered the tragedies of 9/11. Both camps agreed to suspend their campaign ads, and Obama and McCain visited the World Trade Center site together.

Given that most polls have shown the race to be tightening, the candidates will no doubt be eager to get back on the stump. Obama and McCain...

...NANCY GIBBS On a day when people paused and prayed, when Barack Obama joined John McCain at ground zero and made peace with Bill Clinton over lunch, when the ads were stilled and the e-mails sheathed just for a while, GOP vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin held a peace conference of her own with the mainstream media when she sat down with ABC News anchor Charles Gibson in Fairbanks, Alaska...
