Should print newspapers still be around?

 Short answer: yes

Why, you say? Well, folks like my father and others in his age group still read them. Heck, folks like me and those in my age group still read them. 

Yeah, I know I'm biased - I wrote for print papers. But they are necessary for things like print advertisements. I seem to react better to print ads because I don't have to click on them to read them -- and then the advertiser knows who I am.

Okay, time to quit this subject. There are a zillion other media topics I can discuss.

And, I will...I promise.


Talk to you soon!

It's Been An Interesting Year So Far...

 ...not only for the United States, but for me personally.  I am semi-retired. Done with "professional" jobs, other than occasional freelance writing and editing, and on to my retirement job -- retail greeting. No, I don't sell stuff. I greet you at the door. Wrote about it previously when the pandemic required masks for all customers.

They don't have to now, but many people still wear them -- including me. I ain't taking any chances. I pray this pandemic is over in the coming months. Do what you can to make that happen.
