When news is history
: Arrived in Boston. Couldn’t find a local paper anywhere: sold out; collectors’ editions. Just passed by the newsstand at Harvard Square and saw a guy walking proudly down the street with a handful of Globes as if he’d just snagged the last Tickle Me Elmo at Toys R Us on Christmas Eve.
Wait about a week and then go to ebay. I got a Kerry Picks Gephardt NY Post for about $6 including shipping to Michigan.
Sometimes you’ve gotta have a hard copy. A saved print screen of the front page of the Globe’s site wouldn’t be the same thing, now would it?
Doing any public or semi-public talks while you’re up here, Jeff?
