The writer's strike has really put a damper on television as of late. Luckily for me, I have a ton of DVDs to keep me busy in between work projects and until my shows return.

One of my all-time favorite shows is Friends. As I watched season nine last week, I came across an interesting episode. Chandler had been unemployed for a while and finally needed to get moving on some sort of job. He had been unhappy in his previous career (for which most of his friends did not even know what his actual job was). Finally, he secured a job at a marketing firm… as an intern. **Cue dramatic music... Of course, Chandler goes through some funny bouts, especially when on his first day an intern offers to get him coffee and calls him "sir". He replies to this saying that he's an intern too and that there's no need for the formalities. The intern looks at him, laughs at him, and accuses him of being too old for an internship.

Amen, sistah! I always say -- about one-quarter of what got me to where I am today was culled from my internship at Redbook, circa 1993. I observed, did, listened, pushed, created, and observed some more. That, coupled with hard work, determination, creativity, and hard work (did I already say that?!), is the winning ingredient, my dear friends. ;)
