Shameless self-promotion
My Under 30 column was posted a day early this week. Check it out here.

Under 30
I can't complain but sometimes I still do
About Me
- Name: Steve Hyden
- Location: Appleton, Wisconsin
My name is Steve and I'm a newspaper reporter and writer living in northeast Wisconsin, which is just below the armpit created by the bulk of the state and the peninsula. I don't live in the actual armpit, which is Green Bay, which is a place where fat people sit on their porches and watch traffic go by when the Packers aren't in season. I live in Appleton, a place where slightly less fat people do slightly more interesting things, like watch NASCAR, which is traffic with better camera work. I like living here 79 percent of the time. I fancy myself a deep thinker, an iconoclast, a man who can enjoy both high and low culture. Think Chuck Klosterman with a dose of Jack Nicholson from "Five Easy Pieces." However, I suspect I am not nearly as cool as I think I am. I may in fact be a dork. For example, look at how I described myself a few sentences earlier. What can I say? I'm the guy who started listening to the Clash when he was 13 not because he was reacting against the repressive Republican regime he had lived under most of his life, but because John Cusack wore a Clash T-shirt in "Say Anything..."

I'm a pediatric nurse, so swearing doesn't roll off the tongue, given the young audience I deal with, but if you ever play a boardgame or video game with me, you will hear the F-bomb like it was my mother tongue.
I've been living in the Appleton area my whole life, I didn't know they consider it a family newspaper. Maybe they should get some better stories in it.
