What's a village anyways?

Today I had hoped to learn all about what it takes to become a village so that I too, can one day elect myself mayor and assimilate my own utopia. Unfortuantely, our source decided that today wasn't the day to do that. I must say, this small hinderance has not dampened my intreague. The basic questions of how and why you would spend your time and resources to attain such a goal is beyond me and I am eager to hear some 1st person accounts.

My experience at KOMU was interesting enough. I had a great time snapping shots of old people doing excercises but I felt like there was no place for me at the newsroom. No one was quite sure what to do with me and I felt like I had little to offer. I spent most of the day just putting together a slidshow but I was in the way of the broadcast student I had gone out in the field with. She obviously had priority over the audio material I needed so she could make the deadline for the 5oclock broadcast. I'm looking forward to going back but I hope to learn a new skill or 2 this time around.
