I'm in the middle of putting together a quiz for a local group that I will be running at the weekend.
Mrs J decided to get one of the Sunday papers yesterday to see if there was anything there that might help me think up a few more questions.
I don't normally buy a newspaper these days and of course the Sunday editions are HUGE. I can still remember the New York Times Sunday edition- who needs to go weight lifting!
Given the size there was little of interest for me though I have only glanced through many sections.
Do we need these papers to be so big?
How about for today's peeve we focus on this and have the POTD as;
Newspapers are a dying business. Not only are they much less thick they're making them narrower here. They pull out every gimmick in a failed attempt to boost sales. Sad! Nice pics!
Looks like someone did some serious damage to this clock. LOL
Good morning. Wish I had another hour sleep but got an appointment this morning
I dont' read the paper anymore......used to but mainly for the sales and coupons.
Then we moved to DE. It wasn't the same as philly. We don't get the paper here. I get everything from the internet After Im done with CD I go into MSN........see what is happening around the world. And if it is too depressing, I dont' go there.
Happy days...........
love the pictures....as always jezer.
Good day Jezer ,what beautiful photos Thank you for sharing.
Newspapers....we used to get them 3x/week,reduced to 2x/week and now 1x/week. As you said more and more people read on the Internet their news,check on Flyer deals,so they have a lesser chance to have us as customers. What is really annoying as you also said how big the Newspaper is filled with utter nonsense and flyers.That is our Local Newspaper I am talking about. The Regular one I don't even bother ordering anymore,most of the time it is repeat news they print and old news
I read my news online, but do remember the days when I was married and we always had delivery. The Sunday paper weighed 15lbs with 14lbs of it being the advertising inserts

I remember the Sunday paper when I was a paper boy back in the early 1970s, I don't think it was 15 pounds, but it was heavy, with most of it being advertising material.
Not many people read the newspaper anymore, but I agree, that's a lot of waste, I'm glad they have recycling now.
