    I was way late on that movie, but over the past couple years, I've probably watched it a dozen times.

    Never seen it either. Is that the one with Tom Hanks?

    One of our younger reporters (who, to be fair, also helps design pages and thus sees stuff as it's being put together) has been mentioning how he rarely reads the paper. After giving him the sage advice to never say that, especially in front of higher-ups, I'll drop the "I don't read this rag" line on him.
    And then I'll have to explain where it's from.
    I'm getting old.

    I'm 30. I can't wait for the astonished looks in 40 years I'll get when I tell people I worked at a newspaper.

    How long before "The Paper" is remade as "The Website"?

    "You made my wife cry when she reads the paper."
    "Does she go directly to the website or does she click on a story through Twitter or Facebook?"
