"Mother's wheelchair stays out in the hall

should she go out when the TV's on

Whatever moves beyond these walls

She'll know the facts when Sunday comes along"

But alas, the Sunday papers evolved into the "tv in our hands". From the brains and hands of those seeking a different species of news -- a phoenix is rising in our palms via Substack, etc.

It was nice to rock and smile with Saturday morning coffee!

I read (and subscribe to) more online sources now, both magazines and newspapers (and most lean left). I like The Guardian for world news.We have a Gannet-Gazette for the comics, and, just recently, a weekly tabloid started by the man whose father founded Green Bay's second daily newspaper (RIP). We are truly blessed with that newspaper!
