Pressing forward

This morning I met up with Brady Silver, a 2007 Brovald-Sims student/intern, at a press conference being held in the office of the Speaker of the House of Representatives Margaret Anderson Kelliher. He has been hired by the Mesabi Daily paper as a capitol reporter for the session. Wow ... was I proud. There, in the room with seasoned capitol reporters - the likes of Eric Eskola and Mary Lahammer - was a former student of ours.
He didn't ask any questions, but what an experience for him. I'm anxious to read his account of the p.c., which was about the budget-balancing efforts going on at the capitol, and this week's line-item vetos by the governor of the capital investment bill.
