In Jersey City we were having a bit of a flap because the County Executive had been accused (and confessed) to taking bribes.
I'll never forget driving back home that day and as I was getting out of the car glancing over at the other seat and seeing that morning's newpapers, just a few hours old. And I thought they were the most useless things I'd ever seen.
