The chronicles of CNN's boot camp known as The VJ Program. We Peon Warriors began meeting here to share humiliating and humorous stories about early encounters with CNN anchors, directors, producers and brutal cafeteria employees. We divulged what it was like to be broke, foolish and referred to not by name but by function. And while we've moved on in life...the inner Peon still remains.

SUSAN ROOK: THE NEW HERB RITTS
A Peon Confidential reader brought something to my attention recently. She informed me that former CNN phenom Susan Rook is now a commercial photographer. With a a flurry of my stubby fingers, I Googled her and found this:
SUSAN ROOK PHOTOGRAPHY
While the pictures are attractive enough, I must quibble with her description of "family". Note how she writes, "Family…always there…our source of love and hope."
Obviously, her Dad never yelled at her when she was nine because he was drunk picking her up after a birthday party and scratched his Peugeot due to his impaired driving skills...Don't see the connection? Why, the scratches were my fault because had Dad not been forced to pick me up at the party, there would be no scratches on his car...ah family...always there...our source of love and hope.
On the other hand, I do agree with one of her quotes: "Families are relationships that make us who we are."
No denying that, I'm afraid.
Cheers, Dad!
UPDATE:
Just found this SUSAN ROOK SHRINE
It hasn't been updated since 1997, but I don't care. It's reassuring to know there is a shrine to Susan Rook.
