What are some homecoming story ideas for journalism?

Any idea that is interesting enough to you will be a good idea. You cannot write a story or novel based on ideas that someone else invents - you won't be interested enough in the subject to be able to research and write anything that will actually sell.

If you want someone to tell you what to write, ask your English teacher for an extra assignment -- that's what you're doing here, you know. Plus, anonymous people on the internet have no idea how old you are, what your interests are, or how well you can write!

In order to write, you need a personal connection to the subject. Write about whatever you enjoy, or whatever you find interesting, and you will end up with your novel or story.

Some of the older Jackie Gleason Honeymooner's were kinescope'd as well as some of the earlier Twilight Zone episodes. One of the way you can tell, is in the contrast ratio of the images, in that they're more `contrasty' in appearance.

Later, that method (1956/57) was replaced with video tape and the video was transferred to be archived and used over and over and over and over and over again. Just ask the Sci-Fi channel.

Are any of the photos that Christopher McCandless took during his fateful journey available for viewing?

I'm not sure if it's the same story or not, but I remember seeing an article in a magazine about 10-12 years ago, in a doctors office, it was a magazine like People or Macleans. It had a picture of him in a sleeping bag, and from what I can remember it looked like skin pulled tight over bones, and he had a can of something in his hand with a spoon sitting in it, it was very sobering. I am surprised that nobody has posted them. I also remember reading that he wasnt far from a ranger station but didnt know it.
