Pete's Paragraphs

When I was quite young l used
to think that | would like to be a
reporter on a large, city newspaper.
For practice in preparing myself
for this work, every time I would
hear a bit of news, I would hurry
off to find someone to tell it to,
but invariably the person I attempt
ed to tell would interrupt me and
say, "Oh yes, heard that some
time ago" Eventually l came to
the conclusion that l lacked some
thing it took to be a reporter.
