Extinct: Fish Wrappers

On his blog, The Slice ,” Paul Turner posts: “Got an email this morning from a reader named Joe who used that expression to describe the SR. I know the guy and he was not trying to be mean. Though I think it might be fair to say he isn’t always impressed with the paper. In any event, I realized I had not encountered that use of “fishwrap” in a while. And now I am wondering if it is all but extinct. Maybe not. Like print newspapers, maybe it’ll hang in there.” (illustration: www.twitchy.com)

Question: One of the uses I have for my Spokesman-Review is to light fires. How about you? How do you use the erstwhile fish wrapper after you’re done reading it?
