I paid off some Christmas bills and had a few bucks left over in the checking account so I mailed in a check for a subscription. There were a few things that were a little off in the first newspaper, but for a few bucks, every two weeks, I have something to read on break at work or while in my "thinking chair" at home. I did like the local/regional spin and writers a la the defunct NY Sportsman
Our local newspaper sucks "Rochester Democrat & Chronicle" for outdoor news, the writer is mostly a granola crunchy hiker that could really cares less about hunting and fishing and fills in the paper with hiking, biking and sailing articles from time to time and occassionally throws in an article for opening day of deer, turkey, bass and trout fishing.
