Albany,n.y. Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 15 hours ago, Augie said: I remember as a kid getting the “morning paper” as we left Braves games at night. A little confusing. The idea of the internet and newspapers going the way of the dinosaur might have been too much to comprehend. I still have a yellowed copy of the final paper the Courier Express ever printed on 9/19/1982, since I was living in Buffalo then. When I was in school at Fredonia the Courier would come in around 2 AM at the all night donut place at the D&F plaza. I often waited to get the paper there. I also remember the days in NYC when I could get a Daily News next day edition early in the evening before headed back to LI on the Long Island Railroad. Now I wake up to the morning edition of the Albany Times Union delivered to my computer. Newspapers are going to be on-line only eventually. Why get a hard copy for $2/day when I can get the same thing subscribing on-line for $1/week. The paper saves printing & delivery costs & I save over $50/month reading it on-line.

We’ll call it “Get off my lawn!” All y’all can hang out there talking about the good old days and how much harder you had it growing up. Would work for me!
