I was visiting my daughter and asked if she had a newspaper.

I wanted some and several calls to drug stores and department stores were met with blank responses. Nobody knows what they are.

Yesterday I wanted some empty 35mm film canisters. Similarly, these are now difficult to find.

Newspapers! I remember those!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
