mine had two bags and was still wet. I agree when it rains hard enough the paper will get wet.

Didn't even think of calling to ask for credit.

Someone always has it worst than you do!
 
OLD people have problems that you haven't even considered yet!


A 79-year-old man was requested by his Doctor for a sperm count as part of his physical Exam.

The doctor gave the man a jar and said, 'take this jar home and bring back a semen sample tomorrow.'

The next day the 79-year-old man reappeared at the doctor's office and gave him the jar, which was as clean and empty as on the previous day.

The doctor asked what happened and the man explained, 'well, doc, it's like this -- first I tried with my right hand, but nothing. Then I tried with my left hand, but still nothing.

'Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand, then with her left, still nothing. She tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then with her teeth out, still nothing.

'We even called up Arleen, the lady next door and she tried too, first with both hands, then an armpit, and she even tried squeezin' it between her knees, but still nothing..'

The doctor was shocked!

'You asked your neighbor?'

The old man replied,

'Yep, none of us could get the damn jar open!

AMERICA'S FRIENDLIEST HOMETOWN! LOL!

What I meant was that I wouldn't ask for credit.

Gracie, how about if we stop the car and shake the living heck out of the mean wrinklies?

Sheesh, folks, someone was trying to be nice and save the hassle of being on hold to ask for a dry paper and some of you felt the absolute need to be rude and petty?

Mine was soaked too and I was up at 6:15. Rain was over by then. Tried to call The Daily Sun for 1 1/2 hours to get replacement. Never got through. I suspect the phone was off the hook.

Hair dryer did a fine job of drying out my paper. Not a big inconvenience

Can't understand why anyone would bother to call anyone to get credit for a newspaper that got wet. Just wrap some fish in it and don't worry about missing the Villages news of the day.
