And I thought the RTD was a decent rag.

Haven't read it in awhile, no time to read more than headlines and FReeper flaming these days... Sorry to hear it's going the way of just about everything else these days...

"So, Mr. MacKenzie, it is with a heavy heart that I bid you and your tabloid 'adieu'...it was a fun and educational 16-year ride."

For crying out loud you must feel like you're WALKING ON AIR!!!
At least, that's how *I* felt the day I told the commie SOBs what they could do with their filthy *enlightened* rag. {there. feel much better myself...}

Just think...your cancelled subscription, added to that of others, are what's called tanking circ numbers & spell declining ad revenues.
There just isn't any other way to deal with these impudent pukes in the Lamestream except to tell 'em, "Pack yer crap & get the hell outa here; you're fired."

You da man.
I'm withdrawing my lawsuit... :^)

I already don't miss it...the Washington ComPost already has better Skins info, and I can always get my WahooSports info from the Sabre.com...and the stuff they have on the Op/Ed page is almost always stuff that I've read on FR 2-3 days prior!!

"I thought the RTD was a decent rag."

Used to be, my FRiend, used to be!! I literally went 9-10 years and can count on two hands the number of times I DID NOT read the Editorial Page!! Often it was the first thing I read each and every day as I sipped my Java and geared up fer work!! But those days are gone...and it all started when they refused to get rid of that ButtUgleeeMollyIvins!! If that ol' broad ever had a rational thought work its way into her cranium, I swear on the Good Book she never shared it with us!!!

Good Riddance, RTD...MUD

Ain't it the truth. DH and I are always complaining at the breakfast table that there is nothing to read in the paper (RTD)--- and does the cartoonist suck or what?!

Why we still subscribe:

5. Need a reason to walk to the paperbox in an ugly raincoat and my husbands giant jammies. (why, neighbors would have no reason to live.)
4. Whacky local columnists
3. Need to know who got a deer through the windshield
2. Tag sale notices
1. You never know when a letter from Roy West will appear (THATS entertainment!!!)

"...does the cartoonist suck or what?!"

Brookins will sneak in a good one here and there...and it'll usually show up on FR, if it is any good.

"Why we still subscribe:

"5. Need a reason to walk to the paperbox in an ugly raincoat and my husbands giant jammies. (why, neighbors would have no reason to live.)"

Usually I walk out and get the paper fer my mornin' constitutional before it gets light...LOL!!

"4. Whacky local columnists..."

I will miss the blithering IDIOTS who write Letters to the Editor, and there IS some good local talent, too.

"3. Need to know who got a deer through the windshield."

That's why my wife's PO'd at me fer not talking to her before cancelling the subscription...she likes to read the Obits and the Marriage Notices and Ann Landers and Dear Abby...LOL!!

"2. Tag sale notices"

Not applicable...

"1. You never know when a letter from Roy West will appear (THATS entertainment!!!)"

Please, my FRiend, please bump me up whenever Good Ol' Roy rips off one of his classics...I'll anonymously buy an RTD at the machine downstairs.

Welcome, my VA FReeper FRiends to a thread that asks the age-old question...HOW MUCH ARE YOU PAYING FOR GASOLINE TODAY AS COMPARED TO WHAT YOU WERE PAYING LAST YEAR?!

In Richmond, VA at the Rennie's at Midlothian and Pinetta (just off the Powhite Parkway), I, Mudboy Jefferson Lincoln Slim III, just filled up my pickup with 87.9 cents/gallon gasoline!! And that's the God'sHonest TRUTH...when do you think we're gonna see Article One from Jeff Schapiro congratulating GeeDubyuh or GigoloJimGilmer fer their "Success in Defeating the Gas Price Crisis of '00?!"

If you said NEVER and also realize that that li'l twit PUNK Geoffrey Schapiro wouldda leaped at the chance to credit either the EX-Traitor-in-Chief or his new Horse-Faced KlintonButtboy in the Guvnah's Mansion, were it only possible...then, well, you oughtta be as PISSED OFF as me and will take the time to write a little note to the RTD!! Please copy/paste your comments to this thread if you feel the urge.

We're gonna cost Schapiro his friggin' job, folks!!!

YEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

"...member since November 8th, 2000"

Welcome, Newbie VA FReeper!! And I was serious about the 88 cents/gallon gas...think I saw it fer 94 at the Exxon on Jahnke, too...it's reasonable everywhere, though.

GOOD FOR YOU...I did the same thing with the Virginia Pilot after the 2000 election. It's important to let them know why you're cancelling. I don't know if it'll ever do any good, but it made me feel better.

Actually, I'll feel even better once they print this Letter to the Editor and make me Correspondent of the Day yet AGAIN!!!

"Just think...your cancelled subscription, added to that of others, are what's called tanking circ numbers & spell declining ad revenues."

Dat's the Plan, Jack!!

"There just isn't any other way to deal with these impudent pukes in the Lamestream except to tell 'em, "Pack yer crap & get the hell outa here; you're fired."

It works equally well with the Networks...I ain't watched nothin' but FoxNewsChannel fer a coupla years now and I can't tell you how much better I feel than back when I let CNNNBCCBSABC poison my mind!!

"You da man."

No, Landru, YOU da Man!!

SHEEEESH...don't even get me started about the Pilot!! How does a Leftist Rag like that gain prominence in a nice, patriotic Military Metropolis like the Tidewater Area?!

"It's important to let them know why you're cancelling. I don't know if it'll ever do any good, but it made me feel better."

It works, I think...I had to cancel my Cable three (3) times with OUTRAGED CALLS to the Management before they finally offered FoxNewsChannel. Eventually, they succumbed to my relentless barrage of angry phone calls, emails, and snailmails!!!
