Word arranging. How does it work?
It takes him five hours to write a column too. (Down from nine hours before he got spell-check.) He&#039;s wondering if he&#039;s overpaid. (Yes.)

Sadly, the WSJ style manual used to give writing tips but now it mostly just says not to wear white after Labor Day and which plaids it&#039;s ok to combine.

Now, if only someone would refudiate the shot children and their parents.
WON&#039;T SOMEBODY NOT THINK OF THE CHILDREN?
Judging by the picture, he has received quite the inheritance.
And got fake boobs.
Taranto is basing his opinion on the fact that he&#039;s never been able to produce 900 publishable words.
