If only you knew this was not garbage

I got inspired to do this post after reading Bob London's post on his blog "Bobservations". I don't want newspapers to die. Thats my quality time and sometimes that morphs into family time.
The plastic wrapped package above is 12/12/2007 Washington Post. It does not deserve this place. Newspapers particularly good ones(IMHO) like the Washington Post and the Washington Business Journal have a place in our life. ( feel free to add more or agree or disagree with me in the comments section below)

About an hour before taking this picture, as we were having breakfast - my wife, daughter and me had a discussion on how nice the Cookies in the food section looked ( Thats what you can see on the top in this picture). The conversation was going to evolve around how we could make the weekend a fun activity and make some of these cookies.

I am heavily plugged in to the Internet and to me a Newspaper is like a RSS reader. It usually does a good job of collecting news and information and if it doesnt I just move on.

I felt passionate enough on this to stop and take this picture.
Washington Post please do not take this to heart . I am sure the poor soul who threw this paper must have had a million things on his mind.

What do you think ? Of course newspapers have other uses too . My toddler loves the Washington Post because of this.
