And I agree...we'll eventually come to a point where the major metro dailies might only be 4 days a week for Dead Trees (tm OMW) editions, with a web presence the rest of the week. And of course, you know about the Cincinnati/Kentucky Post; as I have noted in the past at TSMW, that paper went under at the end of 2007. <br /><br />By the way, I have branched out to my fourth (!) blog, which is a picture/video blog. Go check it out please if you are so inclined...J.

Interesting as well to read stories from other parts of the country..Tim Loneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15208281099970788558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33436317.post-67983981599904347552009-05-31T14:40:46.582-04:002009-05-31T14:40:46.582-04:00Another thing I miss from the "old days" is the ca...Another thing I miss from the "old days" is the cartoon shorts that used to play before a movie feature.

I've been tempted to get one, but I do like the feel of a real book on my hand.Minervahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16412414063488628467noreply@blogger.com
