The herald has an electronic version.
They want you to pay for that too.
My street he shows up at 5:30, stops in the middle of the street with the radio on,door wide open,flashers going,throws three papers, then backs down the street going against any traffic that may be coming the right way.
Does anyone remember when it use to be a kid on foot or on a bike?
Paper boy?
Now it's paper guy with the SUV.

Talking i had a paper route

in 1962 -64...
I saw a UFO one day...
cigar shaped - parked motionless in
the sky...didnt move an inch.
until it zoomed off suddenly...
in a big turn around move...
disapeared in 5 seconds.

i had watched it for over 30 minutes
i was too excited to finish my route
that day... what a RUSH !
of course,,,nobody would
believe me...
then or now..
i dont read newspapers.
I just burn them.

I was thinking the same thing !!!
When I was 12, I had a paper route till I was 15.(the Patriot Ledger)
Peddled my bike 5 days a week about 7 miles with my paper bag tied across my handle bars with about 35 papers in it.
Now I see the guy with the car or mini van with the flashers going and driving on the wrong side ofthe street very early on my way to work!

LETS GO BRANDON

Geez, i don't even see kids out playing anymore, let alone have jobs like we had, cutting lawns, weeding for $ , shining shoes or delivering papers, shoveling snow. They probably want to start at $65 an hr.

Call up the newspaper and tell them you want your paper deliver at the same location box, door, roof, whatever or you will cancel the subscription.
