The Bee

I guess it’s time for me to go and look for the newspaper, before the poorly wrapped paper is a soggy mess. Of course there is no rain on the internet news and I never have to deal with weather related issues when reading it. I should (logic tells me) end my subscription to the newspaper and go electronic for all that I need to know. But there’s something comforting about holding that piece of cheap paper in my hands. Why is that? It seems to make the news more believable, as if the combined labor of the hundreds of people employed by the Sacramento Bee has given it validity. They wouldn’t put that much effort into delivering it to my driveway if it wasn’t valuable…would they?
