I assume I am one of the very few.
I assume I am one of the very few.
I do
I read everything online.
Wife reads the paper online. Gives me the highlights.
I red the paper daily...mostly for the letters to the editor and the comics.
you should read the paper and the bible every day.... that way you know what both sides are up to!:biggrin
We still get it.
I read the newspaper online daily
Only able to get the Sunday edition out where I live. But read every page. Read some on computer but one of the old fashioned ones who likes real paper. It to will not be around much longer. Have a neighbor that works for Memphis paper, according to her they want out of the ( print paper ) business.
Wife takes the Sunday paper only. She does it for the coupons . She reads the whole paper. I read one page out of the sports section on hunting or fishing. Don't know how long we will continue. At Sam's you can pay a fee and all available coupons will apply when you present your card. Kroger's website will let you click on the ones you want and they are applied at checkout. No paper at either place. I keep up with things I'm interested in on the computer. We really don't have a need for it, but if she wants to keep it , she can keep it. This is not like the Obama thing, I mean she can really keep it.
We do not have a real newspaper. Our local rag, The Daily Disappointment, is owned by Gannett.
No right wing fire and brimstone papers here. Everything is gleaned on line
not here. paper is to liberal
Brenda and I read 3. Need to make sure we ain't in the obits.
I get it daily. I got a call from them one day and they asked how the could improve the paper. I told them to always tell the truth and they didn't want to talk to me any more. This really happened.
I get the local paper (Herald-Leader) on Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon ... pay a yearly fee. It used to pay for itself with the coupons, when the stores would double those at 50cents or less ... but, since they only cash them at face value, now, that's not the case.
I mostly read the sports, local news, funnies, and some store ads. The paper is Liberal leaning in most of it's content, and by most of its journalists ... but, does contain a small contingent of conservative views, to balance.
I think when my subscription runs out, I won't renew ... TV & Internet News sources, of my choosing, will give me all I care to read about or see, as far as real "news".
... cp :kewl
hehe you ain't right

Our town only publishes once a week and you usually hear everything before it makes it print. :) We used to take the Jackson paper, but it's hard to read when it's either torn up from driveway road rash or soaking wet, plus, they always seemed to "forget" to put the coupons in the Sunday edition. Waste of money since I don't have a bird and I can afford toilet paper.
Yep. We still get the Sun. It is paper thin. ha....... We have a paper box/bin next to the mail box. The delivery folks must believe it is a bird house. They prefer the toss to the yard.
Read mine front to back 7 days a week. I would much rather read the actual hard print than read things online, or downloaded. Won't discuss about certain crappie magazines. I am adamant about the delivery. Have a special box that the newspaper folks installed next to my mailbox on the main road down my driveway. Believe me, it is placed in that box. From the folks that have responded here, and that I know, I figured which ones' did, or didn't. Thanks for your replies, good to know it's not just me.
Read Drudge Report daily. Listen to Rush Limbaugh daily. Watch FOX News nightly. Sometimes I just feel overwhelmed with knowledge. If I have a liberal thought
in my head, it is considered a foreign object. I speak American English only. But, I love the way it is spoken in South Louisiana best. I could say more, but sometimes
you just have to bite your tongue.
Read in the local paper a couple of days ago about someone dumping broken glass shards in the only dog park we have (don't go there because I live in the country). Another article about a sportscaster fella coming over and talking about how he hates Louisiana, etc. during the super regional baseball game we had here against Ole Miss (he ended getting fired BTW). Another article, etc., etc. Told Ann (my wife) about what I read - she said really? She reads news online and misses the small stories. Believe me, she's very educated. Her graduate degree goes beyond mine. We don't watch television because we are who we are. The little things happening around us amount to a lot. Just saying.........
This is my home town. No need for me to read my local paper, nor Memphis'. We do have a publish called the Good News, about 15 pages. It has nothing but good news in it.

I once knew a man that read drudge, listened in drug laced Limbaugh and watched Faux News, he as so pitiful he wet himself trying to figure out a ball-point pen.
ha ha
I guess I'm one of the very few that actually sharpens a pencil on a hang crank sharpener that hangs on the wall in my shop. Oh well, several years from now, I'll say, those where the good old days.
I didn't know it was for reading? Only used it for potty training the pets!
I saw some back window decals going down the road the other day on some fellas truck. One said "If it files, it dies". The other said "If it's brown, it's down". That's pretty pitiful as far is I am concerned.Quote:

For your enlightenment please remember conservatism is a disease that makes YOU sickening to people who regularly bathe.
Wow this post from one who posted the following on another thread about how the level of discourse had descended to a much lower level which he didn’t engage in with his postings.Quote:
