Today. Read LA times on days off. Short attention span on screens...

Maybe a decade ago for a full-sized newspaper.

I very rarely read newspapers for news as I found them anxiety producing. On the other had, I often glance at the comics or the Suduko puzzle in our break room newspaper while heating my lunch. Just today, I read Dilbert and Hagar the Horrible and Beetle Baily.

This morning- I still get the Seattle Times delivered to my house

People leave them in the breakroom from time to time, so I might read them there. But i have gotten spoiled by the immediacy of breaking news via internet.

RIP, James Lipton. Will Ferrell did you justice.

When I was in the hospital last year. I am a big crossword fan, and specifically got the NYtimes for the puzzle - which I finished!

Yesterday. Im down to two, but I love them. I much prefer to read books and paper over the screen, though I know it's not practical.

I love to do daily crosswords/sudoku, too, and that just isnt the same on a screen

Crossword addict. Only real papers and real ink satisfies.

Read several a week as a result.

*Always* buy a local paper, if any, getting gas on road trips. Serious Jones for smalltown police blotters ... another fav genre, like classically styled boxing features in the sports pages, I'll suss until they die out entirely.

Over the weekend when I visit my mother. God bless the older generation, they still read books, newspapers, and can hold their attention longer than a border collie. My generation and younger, not so much.

Six maybe eight years ago?

2009. I used to read 5 papers a day. I can't read them now. Propaganda rags, no better than the Tabloids.

Sunday

Valorious said...

Same. Just about every day really.

PhillyWilly said...

good work momo. times is no joke. no googling!!

Amartel said...

Very recently - local paper still gets published and ends up in lunchroom at work.

OKay said...

About a week ago! We were out for breakfast and they had some copies on the counter for customers to read.

In my own home? It's been decades.

momo said...

Philly - No way no Google! I think dictionaries are cheating and must use ink, otherwise the hands get too dirty. I have been doing them since I was 14. Only child in a treehouse syndrome. When you do them for years you get all the clues. It's like a secret society or something.

Vita said...

Momo & Philly-- Will Shortz is a king, lol!😍 I love all Sundays (agree, no googling), can usually do thru Thursday, but can rarely complete Fri or Sat.

Unabashed hope to get a crossword published one day!☺
