Default Wet or dry Daily Sun today, Tuesday 8/3

Double bagging on heavy rain days still soaks my paper. They should tie the plastic bag then. Did you get a wet or dry one today?

Too often it gets wet (like today), One time I called because it was unreadable, but they got so many complaints that they ran out of papers! Sometimes I use a hair dryer to dry it up.

They should tie the end after double bagging the paper. If you have a driveway that is on an incline the paper has a constant stream of water running over it. They would be much better off throwing the paper in the grass on rainy days.

Let's let Marlon Brando voice his opinion on this topic in arguably one of the greatest scenes from one of the greatest movies ever made (IMO) :

My paper used to get wet a tiny bit sometimes even double bagged but still readable. But there is a person who takes a walk around the streets as exercise every morning, who throws the paper to the front of the door every morning. So all I have to do is reach out and pick it up. I don’t even know who this person is but I can’t wait to thank them.

I hope that is not so that they dock the delivery person $5.00 for a wet paper. If, that is true, I have no idea why anyone would do that job.
