    The sports section. The comics. Parade. And my dad was off to the throne for a long visit every Sunday morning.

    Well that really sucks. You'd rather see something fade away with some dignity rather than be butchered by the Maven morons.

    The Seattle Times, for one. And I'm pretty sure the Chicago Tribune still does.

    Remember when Parade was where we first found out about Ayds?

    A 24-pack of batteries for $1.99? I should have been looking at these ads more closely all these years.

    Breezy, easy reading. I remember the "What They Earn" issue when the cover would be all headshots and salaries. Some ballplayer would be there with $1 million, which was CRAZY.

    I have, like, 200 Harbor Freight batteries in my house because of how cheap they are. I just buy more every time I’m there even though I don’t need them. I joked to the engineer on my assembly line that we should switch over to those for our hand controls in our table versus the Rayovacs we include as a cost-cutting measure.

    Some hospital pays $9,000 for a medical chair and gets Rayovac batteries. Can’t possibly splurge on the Duracells. Then it’d cost $9,001!

    What an amazing industry healthcare is.

    You get what you pay for at Harbor Freight. I speak from experience.

    One of my all time favorite quotes was in Walter Scott’s Personality Parade
    Willie Nelson was asked about his marijuana habit and said: “I’ve been smoking marijuana every day for 20 years and never found it habit forming.”
