newspaper

In the age of the internet, TV, streaming services, and podcasts…I have turned to the newspaper.

That’s right! I have renewed my subscription to the Austin American Statesman. It is delivered everyday and I can tell you right now starting my day sitting on the back porch with a cup of coffee and the newspaper is incredible.

Michele and I decided a week ago to not turn on the TV first thing in the morning. The Today Show, like all the other networks, has become the COVID19 Network. I couldn’t take another morning of BREAKING NEWS showing the chart busting numbers of cases and deaths.

At least with the newspaper I can just turn the page or close my eyes. The newspaper doesn’t invade my brain with sound.

And the newspaper gives me my Horoscope and a Sudoku puzzle. I am not smart enough to do the crossword puzzle.

Now if I can just get the paper delivery person to stop throwing the paper into the bushes.
