Another interesting one from TV. Do you know the origins of 'freelance' ?

Off the top of my head I'd say it might be related to samurai traditions.

I'll be brief as I'm suffering another migraine. From Wikipedia:

"A freelancer or freelance worker is a person who pursues a profession
without a long-term commitment to any one employer.

Compare and contrast with the 'masterless samurai', or ronin... and please
pardon my obscurity.

L Silberstein, A'83

Pardon - no. So obscure that I gave up before getting hit by another
migraine. However, I didi find this little gem on Amazon:

'83,000 Square Miles, Kansas Day Trips: No Lines No Waiting' by Steve
Harper.

And all for less than US$8. Apologies to those who live/work in Kansas.
