So...unlike folks in Mobile, Birmingham and Huntsville, I still get to start every morning
reading my hometown daily paper that is delivered to my house in real newsprint.
Not only that, but yesterday, when The Mobile Press-Register stopped daily publication
and cut its newsprint version to three times a week, I get to read the oldest daily
newspaper in Alabama! After 185 years, The Selma Times-Journal is still printing.

That's great, rub it in! Not only does your paper survive, but you also get to eat a delicious looking breakfast!
Haha!Yes, that is homemade sweet potato cake! BTW, I linked your blog about the Press-Register (click "yesterday") and added you to my list of Alabama blogs.
I hate what's happening to newspapers. I still get my daily!
Still a great way to start the day.
That is exciting in this day and age ~ enjoy ^_^ ~ (A Creative Harbor)
185 years is a wonderful accomplishment for your newspaper and I hope they continue to thrive!
i love that, especially when newspapers aren't exactly thriving these days...keep it up selma!
People in Huntsville are not too happy about the reduction in printed papers. I love the internet, but it is sad to see print going by the wayside. Hopefully, your paper will live many, many more decades.
