Sunday morning with the paper and a cup of coffee...its routine and I just can't see it being the same with my laptop instead of a real newspaper.

When my newspaper starts appearing in the tube under my mailbox, I'll consider tipping the carrier. I'm sick of playing find my paper under the cars in the driveway, in the shrubs, wet on rainy days, etc.

In fact the only reason I get the paper now is for the coupons and to laugh at the 1/2 page wedding announcements that detail the big day right down to how the cloth napkins were folded and giving the middle name of the drummer in the band!

Those crack me up. Do they really think that that many people actually care?

I also don't get the wedding announcements with a picture of the bride only...it's his "special day" as much as hers.
