 AGREED !!
 ( though I find I am surprised by the letters of praise they find to print, or they
 make up themselves, can't tell which )

 Obviously, you don't get the Akron Beacon Journal !
 They had a good TV section, which turned into ( it seems ) the pattern
 for the "new" TVGuide.
 Now, neither one is worth a darn.

 On-line, I guess, as they leave little choice.

 The journalism might be nice in a TV guide for some,
 but my sole interest in a TV listings publication, is the TV listings !

 Kinda like wanting a cell phone that's capable of making a phone call,
 and I care nothing for the rest of it.
 But, that's just me...

 Then, for Christmas, *my* request would be for her to stop wasting 
 her money, and get something more useful, like a subscription
 to the Star, or the Enquirer, or perhaps the Congressional Record !

If you took all the students that felt asleep in class and laid them
end to end, they'd be a lot more comfortable.
