I knew if I turned on my computer to connect to the Internet, I wouldn't be able to get off. I think it was 9PM wen I decided to do a quick search of places to eat for lunch tomorrow using ReferenceUSA. One thing lead to another and now I find myself obsessing over a journalist named Eric Malnic. I don't know whether this journalist for the LA Times is retired because he decided it was time to sit back and enjoy his life, or whether he was a victim of the lay offs that have been affecting the Times. One article from 2001 caught my attention, and then I discovered he wrote a lot about death, plane crashes and dark depressing things.
I'm tired now and I have to wake up early and go to work tomorrow. It was a constructive two hours of just surfing the web for links to stuff that I probably shouldn't be worried about, but… it was this or read a few more pages of American Radical. I think DD Guttenplan's biography is an incredible compilation of bits and pieces of writing from the journalist. So, in my own way, I was considering attempting the same thing using the available material from google news. In 1994 he wrote about the Nicole Simpson murders, in 1996 he wrote a few articles about flight travel, and these days, it's all about 9/11. That's where my curiosity over planes lies. At least as far as what articles may have been written by Eric Malnic on the subject. Because he had already written a few articles on flight travel, when the 9/11 debacle occurred, he was just one of the journalist given assignments to cover how the country was being effected by the increase in security. I look forward to setting some time to look at these stories. Not tonight, though. Zzzzzz
if sitting in front of the TV is how people veg out, what's surfing online called?
