@Jaebius You aren't alone. And, there are a growing number of people (particularly over 60) who are refusing to read newspapers online any more - they did it, weren't impressed.

Consider when the internet conflicts result in bringing down the whole world of communication (in their mind) ... what media will remain?

Carve that in relief ... somewhere out there! Some time in the ultimate future will it come up in a discussion as disgusting as Augustine ... very arid ...

Keep it fluid and moving on ... extraineous thought flows like that ... out-of-here ... rogue!

Some say this is why Psyche and Sophie are there ... in essence? Stinking thought eh ...

Mores to read into ... production of tabl*eau as a flat water? Someone said J'zu presented alternatives to the head person ... an angel hidding in a hard palce? Heady dark matter! Gives rise to dancing devices at the edge ... marginal notes ...

I have this vision of items of concern that emperors oversee ... the height of hubris? What can one label loss of intellect to suit those that cannot read in depth ... ADHD? Maybe that's where I left the thing ...

I'd find it hard to handle a newsprint paper anymore, esp. losing the ability to adjust the font size so I don't need my reading glasses. Should try someday, though. Wife hates them. To her, they're just paper that comes in the door, gets looked at once, and then goes back out in the blue box.

Mac EH ... Sunday morning come down ...

Some thank God for other Dais ... when thought is sacrificed when an old friend appears? Love is lost ... some do jump off the bridge then as thought comes back ... return of the opposed levity?

Best to hang in the media ... meddl 'n ... getting some of it ... they tell me mortals are inhibited in regards (that look recieved from Mona L.)!

LAST as I wonder how long I'll be waiting for the papers this week. Still no tracking number so no idea where they even are.
I use a larger font in the paper which a lot of people also like.

 

[BethAnne]

Update: I was given the tracking numbers - papers have made it to the sorting facility in Red Deer and that's the LAST entry. I was also given copies of the shipping labels - 1. they don't have my full name on it, just my first name. 2. they don't have my full street address (no wonder they had trouble generating the shipping label!) so who know where they will end up!

 

[Mendalla]

I smell some competence issues here, not to mention a sh*tty shipping system that isn't set up to do address lookups properly.

 

[BethAnne]

I'm not impressed.

I mostly read online news, too. As I said, I have a digital sub for the Globe. My wife's Economist sub includes digital and print (weekly newsmagazine from the UK that's like 200 years old or something) and I read their daily digital "Economist Espresso" app using her account. They're stronger for international stories than North American sources tend to be. I get the NY Times Morning Briefing newsletter by email. And then just portals like MSN and Yahoo! (though I find those tend to slant more and more to less reliable, more biased sources, anymore).

a student of mine and i read articLes together from the online koreAn timeS and korean herald. iT's good for us

The mess the ink leaves on your fingers.

But, yeah, I kind of miss my youthful days laying on the living room floor going through the Kitchener-Waterloo Record and Toronto Star (the Record didn't publish on Sunday so my parents had a Sunday-only sub for The Star). And the Saturday colour comics in The Record were a must read, of course.

Sigh...no one is answering their phones or emails.

All is normal as the population recedes into relief ... especially from responsibility for things ... too much stress!

It is just how the Dais pass ... misty understanding!

 

[Jaebius]

phone caLls and emails, while they do trAnSpire, aren'T the big things here in korea

Got through to Purolator! (Sis gave me a workaround as I couldn't get through the AI voice earlier) Got a human! Changes made to address - it was flagged unable to deliver due to invalid address at their end but nothing showed at mine when I checked the tracking. That's the good news. Not so good news is that they can't guarantee I'll have the papers by Friday.
