Freelancers like to know what other freelancers think and are up to, so every Friday we'll take an informal poll (as in, you write in, I don't come knocking on your door) about various topics of reading and writing and the cuckoo crazy world we live in. Today's question: what's the best assignment or gig you've ever gotten? Your feedback posted later today.

You may be wondering why I have a Christmas dog up here for this post. Well, that's one of the images that came up when I Google-imaged the phrase "I have an opinion."
