Yep, I read both when I lived in Anaheim.
I think when there's only one paper, they try to cater to both parties, or at least not to offend either view, and end up not providing anything worthwhile.

WaPo comes to mind since Bezos took over in that respect.

Ahh, good old Anaslime. Where you can set your clocks by the nightly 9:30 aerial barrage from Dizzneeland, <grin>

The PD could be OK. Although they did often endorse Kucinich

The only thing I miss is Orange Tree Deli. They had the best meatball sandwich.
There was another place down by State College Blvd that had great burgers, deep fried mushrooms, and beer on tap. Pretty much all the seating was outside at communal picnic tables, and there were still orchards all around it. Can't remember the name.

It was also cool having the afternoon Cleveland Press. The Lorain Journal is still there that's what we got when I was growing up.

Sure....if I ever make it back. The last 3-4 times I have gone back was just because somebody in my family was dying....so I have come to associate the trip with sadness. Have not been home since 2010.

We will go to Kent State and get really drunk ok.


I cannot count how many times I got drunk there. I wish I could have time warped this mind from 2014 into my mind in 1981 and said "hey you idiot go to medical school or law school." Alas my legacy will be unread rants on a slightly visited political chat forum that is the step-child of an old stereo fan website.


I wonder if in a thousand years historians will be able to determine real life events (i.e. reality) from untrue web blogs.

Yeah we could've been smarter ice

Historians will have fun I'm sure. If we evolve, they'll be like, 'we survived this??"

Just imagine if a meteor hit Earth and the only thing aliens found of proof that humans once existed was Grumpy's server with the Political Chat data.


nothing else. No Mozart CDs, no Statue of Liberty debris, no DMV records, no books, no bodies, animals, etc

Of course if the aliens read the above post they would know that there was more here than meets the eye.

Hey alien "bagger" means a terrible bacteria!
