OrangeTV: I actually DO love the Coeur d'Alene Press for the reasons I stated. In fact, I'm considering a subscription for the first time ever. Maybe it has to do with the afternoon I spent at the library, digging through old copies of the Press from the 40's-the 80's and realizing that it has quite a history here and is quite important to our little mini-culture and it really hasn't changed too much over the years. Either that or it's the meds talking, I dunno.

DFO: I actually find myself considering a subscription, for the first time in 23 years. I came thisclose to buying a Press at Albertson's Saturday, to find out if anything happened b/c the Brand X Web site is pretty poor. On Sunday, the thought crossed my mind again that I should pick up a subscription. So far, I've resisted temptation. Meanwhile, the SR has lost only 16 North Idaho subscribers since Black Thursday.
