On Sundays I read the New York Times, almost cover to cover. \u00a0I skim the travel section (we were delighted when the little column on hotels featured The Wit in Chicago — after we’d stayed there!), and the sports, and then Business, the front section, the week in review, sunday styles, arts and letters, and the magazine. \u00a0I usually don’t get to the book review until later in the week, but I do the crosswor puzzle, and the acrostic every other week, after dinner . \u00a0It’s not all I do on Sundays; I also do some laundry and iron while watching the morning political shows, and yesterday we took a walk, too, since it was a beautiful, classic \u00a0fall day here. \u00a0But it’s certainly a major part of my Sunday, and one of my favorite rituals.<\/p>\n
Now, I’m sure I’d never read as much of the New York Times as I do now if I had to read it on line. \u00a0Is this because I’m old, because I came to the news before computers were a major part of everyone’s life? \u00a0Or is there something intrinsic to a paper newspaper that makes reading it a joy? \u00a0I don’t know, but I worry that the day will come when the paper won’t exist in paper form anymore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
