It's no secret to my wife, but I got to spend part of my New Year's weekend with two very lovely ladies.

The one you know best was our own Jill Hampton.  The Fox2 blog queen was in Columbia to mark the New Year with friends, but I was able to lure her to lunch with Cecile and I.  The bait was just too tempting for any Mizzou grad -- burgers at Booche's.  USA Today rated it one of the best burger places in the country.  Tigers rate it THE best.

But then there was this sultry, lithe and oh-so-loving little lady.  Big brown eyes, hair like a Renaissance painting and a kiss that puts you in heaven.  Greta.   Another Garbo.

Two Gretas

OK, so she's a dog.  But she's a beauty.   We picked up our 9-week-old whippet from Okellie Kennels Saturday.  Our son's whippet, Saffron, has been a fixture in our family for nearly eight years.   But Garrett will graduate from MU and move on soon -- and with him Saffron.

So now we have Greta to enliven our almost-empty nest.  Happy New Year.

Well, Wild, I guess you are at least worth a cup of Joe from the vending machine.
Seriously, let me know when you come this way. And if you are here about noon MWF, you or any of the folks are invited to talk to my citizen journalism class.

You got it.... Too bad I didn't know you last year.... My son graduated from Mizzou in 2007... I was there a lot over the last 4 years but I'm sure I'll pass that way again....

I'm an online-media professor at the Missouri School of Journalism. But I'm also a granddad, a letterboxer and an inept woodworker. I spent some time in the MyFox STL office and became hooked on the MyFox blogs. So here I am, sort of the voice of journalism with a big J. I'll take your criticism or answer your questions about the news, the media system or journalism of the future. If you are into the theoretical end of blogging, check my professional blog at http://thecyberbrains.com
