J-SCHOOL JOKES: Ken Layne has posted links to something called the "Ink Syndicate" and its School of Journalism, and it is absolutely hilarious. I think I'm gonna add this to my permanent links. And maybe this true story, too.

Like a whole lot of other journalists I've met, I never went to J-school, and I've encountered plenty of people who went to "prestigious" J-schools who weren't very good at their jobs, yet still tried to big-time me and everyone around them because they had a fancy education.
