Plus I am fond of not dumping so much paper into my recycle bin by reading it online. But on a nostalgic level I have fond memories of getting the local newspaper when I was a kid and seeing my parents read the paper.Malloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15611823077708933155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-78215817954017949982012-11-20T22:49:28.224-05:002012-11-20T22:49:28.224-05:00I like the newspaper too - but I'll admit that...I like the newspaper too - but I'll admit that the one I read is the one delivered to the school every day. I don't miss recycling all that newsprint one bit.

Love the comics, art section and puzzle pages. I hope we don't lose our newspapers.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102939630771341497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-72769495020876961592012-11-20T11:24:27.285-05:002012-11-20T11:24:27.285-05:00Yes, I still read the newspaper every morning.

I do have to flip the sports section over as that is where they put TV and movie listings now. elsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348895330633879894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-31943508346723148442012-11-20T08:42:05.037-05:002012-11-20T08:42:05.037-05:00I grew up reading the newspaper, both morning and ...I grew up reading the newspaper, both morning and evening, but now, sadly, only one am paper, & that is thinner, except for the ads. My children do read one still, but only take the weekend NY Times, and occasionally buy another. It is interesting to ask students about this & you're right-few are reading. Thanks for the thoughts!

For a possible rustic wrapping paper in a pinch. We got a classroom subscription last year and the kids loved reading them. I think they seemed very old timey and grown-up.<br /><br />http://jakartajackie.wordpress.com/2012/11/20/random-new-years-and-other-holidays-but-a-year-without-thanksgiving/Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15768051300360570185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887210982915389572.post-1636314565465624192012-11-20T04:44:18.947-05:002012-11-20T04:44:18.947-05:00I still read the local paper that grows thinnner a...I still read the local paper that grows thinnner and contains less "news" every day - more out of habit than anything else. I don't think my grown-up children have EVERY bought a newspaper and YET they read the NYTIMES online and their local papers ONLINE every day and quote from them to me regularly! It's a change but reading on the Kindle will likely be our newspaper future. drferreriblogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08800953133789773280noreply@blogger.com
