Once upon a time, most American newspapers were afternoon papers. The paper arrived just as Dad got home from work (Moms didn't work then) and there were only 15-minute newscasts on the tube. Americans relied on the paper to bring them the world.

No more. The majority of what newspapers exist are now mornings ... and now the venerable Buffalo News has joined them.

Another small piece of Buffalo history changes.

IMO, morning is the best time for serious stuff like paper-reading.

afternoons should be spent naked and drunk.

nope.

why do you ask?

Because wives freak out when:

A) You get drunk

B) You get naked

C) You watch something other than a show where there's a woman discussing how she feels

D) You think an evening can be perfect without her

Marriage should wait, my friend. It should wait about forty or fifty years, when you're finally ready to start a family.
