Waiting for Hachiko

I used to get a paper everyday whether it was the Richmond Times disgrace or the VA Pilot. Then I just started getting the paper on Thursday because of the weekend section.
As many have stated, the prices started climbing and it wasn't worth what you were getting.
That goes for USA Today also.
My mom and dad still get the paper delivered everyday. When I lived in Cols. I read it everyday but sadly the last few years it has become paper thin even the Sunday addition.
Our local print paper had gotten to over $200 a year and wife canceled it. I was subscribing to the Richmond Times Dispatch, that was delievered to a friends home in a nearby town. I would go pick it up about every day, but the carrier was independent and starting really jacking up his delivery price. And too, the Richmond Times Dispatch morphed into a more liberal edition several years ago, So I cancelled that subscription. I get a weekly local paper from Highland County , Va, and really enjoy it, and another weekly paper from our county seat, which is good.

| Haven't for about 3 years. The delivery sucked. I would arrive so I'd have a few minutes to read. Then it got later and later. The last straw was not getting the Sunday paper. Called, got promised it would be out "right away." Then no paper. Monday night they delivered the Sunday paper. Customer service was off shore. The Rep could not understand why I was upset. I did get the paper right? "It was a day late!" "Yes, but you got the paper." Yea, enough.
