Late papers

These are the types of days newspaper people hate. We had some mechancial problems last night preventing us from getting the papers to the carriers until much later than normal. Because many of the carriers have other jobs, they aren't able to deliver the papers, which means we scramble.

And it means papers won't be delivered until mid-morning, which isn't what most people pay for.

The other reason we hate it is that it disrupts the newspaper habit. While you're eating your cereal, instead of reading the paper, you might watch the morning news. You might decide you like the idea of having an extra 20 minutes to get off to work.

On the other hand, I'm hoping that you miss us, knowing what happened out there, knowing who was born and who died, knowing all this stuff.

Due to recent automated spamming attacks on our blogs, we are temporarily requiring commenters to authenticate themselves via TypeKey® before posting comments to any News & Record blog in order to prevent denials of service. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
