Vanguard is here
You might think the Vanguard team is so serious, and we are. We take our work very seriously, and we cover some really serious subjects. But you can’t cover too much death, drugs, conflict, and destruction without a lot of levity to go around. So we are constantly joking around and giving each other a hard time.
I would like to say that overall the Vanguard team has a pretty good sense of humor. Case in point: An incident chronicled in this op-ed I wrote recently for the Huffington post.
I don’t want to give the impression that Vanguard is in the habit of stealing and tagging, more that we like to leave our mark from time to time.
I'm off to Mariana’s house to watch the new episode. Yup, we are actually all friends in this department; it’s a pretty rare phenomena. The LA Times had an article this morning that talked about how we all get together and go to Laura’s house to play Rock Band. That’s embarrassing, a 'lil nerdy, and totally true. I bet Hannity and O’Reilly don’t get together and workout with the Wii. (I'm actually not entirely sure they work out at all, but that’s beside the point.)
The point is that Vanguard is a unique place to be, because it’s a tight-knit team. We think this helps our journalism, but at the very least we know we have a lot of fun doing our job.
