Beyond The Daily Journal
Here at The Daily Journal, we pride ourselves on our wonderful pants and our fascinating careers in the world of underwater snail photography. However, with writing as a passion, we've been branching out to other areas. Occasionally, we will submit something to other sites. Following are some samples...

the Borgnine character was a flashy cross-dresser in the first three episodes
