Editorial:
After wandering the Jungle for what seems hundreds of years, when an opening was offered to return, I jumped at the chance.
I was transferred to the sighants (???) department. Some new items have entered the "testing" stage.
I tell you, these guys have lost their minds. I was given this big, flat thing and told to hold it out in front of me while they attempted to hit me with clubs. Now, I may be a green bananna, but I did not fall from the tree this morning. Just as I was about to argue that I, a highly trained professional, should be the one swinging the club, Uber came to oversee the project. I could not disobey his direct order now, could I? (You should see how hard he can swing a club...)
Under protest, I gathered this...chield, I think they called it, and bravely wielded it in front of me.
Though I do not remember what happened next, I awoke to find myself lying in a proper bed for the first time since I was but a boy. I am told that the 'spirmint went well and we should be seeing these put into service soon.

What paper do you work for? If you aren't an editor, it's not an editorial.

Excuse me.
Just trying to have some fun. I'm pretty new and didn't know there were any official papers. Anyone like me to write now and then?

If you want to become a sub-Assistant Editor of the Apolytonian, I'll hire you. Right now I'm the Assistant Editor.

Also, I'm sorry if I gave offense; I didn't mean to.

It's OK, my job has me on edge right now...
I just want to try to write interesting stuff now and then, if you need to "hire" me, fine. Just tell me how you want it worded. I think I could do some decent reports now and then, but don't have a whole lot of time till my home computer is fixed (or rather the power to my home, but thst is another issue all together)

Skywalker's no bully, even if he sounds like one occasionally. 
BTW, there's no law against starting your own newspaper, Un. Free enterprise and all that, y'know.

Once upon a time there was a little sausage called Baldrick, and he lived happily ever after. The end.

It's just better to join a newspaper. If we have several papers, none will have enough reporters; that's why the Apolytonian and the Times merged.
