So I get a text message from Kath... she's headed to some major flooding in Dundalk. Apparently, a 72 inch line burst, and I was at CNS. Hundreds of homes flooded.
In our college newsroom, we were rehearsing a show, when I turned on the TV to watch the coverage. The whole class gathered around, stopping whatever they were doing to watch airials of the flooding. I turned to our reporters, and said "if you want to win an emmy, you'll go out there."
It was Friday, and it was a little after 5pm. I could see it in the look on their faces. Sometimes I forget, they're stil college kids. Obviously, no one was going up to Dundalk today.
And sometimes, I wonder if the news bug isn't still in me.
