Philadelphia Shrinquirer Internet FAIL 2
For the third time in a row, I used their “Subscriber Services” link to schedule a “vacation stop.”
For the third time in a row, I got a confirmation email citing dates, address, and account number.
For the second time, not in a row, I came home to find a weekend’s worth of newspapers.
Now, I do still enjoy reading a paper newspaper, even though this one is full of right-wing idiots on the op-ed page. A paper can be taken to places that a laptop cannot.
But my patience is wearing thin. The only thing that is keeping me out of the clutches of the New York Times is that the Times, having no sense of humor, has no comics.
Oh, well, it won’t be long till I’m reading the Pilot. The comics aren’t as good, but, well, you know . . . .

I know from personal experience that the NYTimes, going to Dallas, a paper every day, is $65.00 a month. Don’t know if a shorter distance is cheaper.

I don’t know what the subscription rate is, but I paid $6.00 for the Sunday NYT in Va. Beach this weekend.
