[I still care]

It’s got to be better than the SPT. I really abhor that sheet.

A friend once told me, I listen to what they say and take the opposite view. They can be reliable to take the wrong view 100% of the time.

If they run out of things to print, they’ll write some headline on how we need more taxes. Today their headline is on the “Gulf Oil Spill Threatening FL”.

Oh, I know how awful they are. Most of the articles have New York Times origins. As my father said when he left New York in the early 60’s——I didn't leave anything there and I am not going back to get it. (no offense intended to any New York FReepers).
I just got real tired of seeing the “victim of the day” story on Page 1 everyday when there were always more pressing stories than that. It was one of the biggest reasons I started lurking here on FreeRepublic-—I had always read a newspaper and missed it as part of my morning routine. However, FreeRepublic keeps me involved for a bigger part of my day than the paper ever did. (I am a FReepaholic and proud of it). However, I love it here and have gotten quite an education from all the knowledgeable people that inhabit this place. I have found my home.
