No News Is Good News



Our home-delivered newspaper awaits at the end of the driveway. 
Every morning I go out there and get it. That two-minute walk is usually the best part of my day, before I open the paper and read the news.

war somewhere. But here in Maine where all is peaceful, 
knowledge of distant horrors helps nobody, least of all me.


I'd like a newspaper with pretty pictures on the front page. 
Maybe then I wouldn't need three kinds of medication for high blood pressure.
