I miss my paper too. We were talking about getting the daughter a bird. Was telling herwe just line the cage with newspaper, then thought about how the only time theres a newspaper here is when somebody dies so we can cut out the obit. So now, do my daughter to have a pet, i have to get into murdering people i know. I guess that means tha the decline of print media will lead to increase in central illinois homicides.
