Be afraid. Be very afraid.

The coffee shop nearest our home is a popular hangout for LSU's "writers." The Angry family dropped in last Sunday for sweet, hot beverages and pastry. At a nearby table was a meeting of the university's Journalism club.

As the meeting was breaking up, I overheard one undergraduate talking to another about how she makes a little extra cash on the side. Ready for this one?

Copyediting.

Now I understand.
