Does anybody still use physical phone books or newspapers?

We still get a newspaper delivered every morning. Nothing better than sitting in front of the fire in the woodstove on a cold morning, reading the paper and doing the puzzles.

The other day, I bought a newspaper for the first time in years. It was a Saturday edition and the word puzzles were still there... plus a new one: ever hear tell of one called an Extreme Sudoku? It combines letters AND numbers (my head still hurts trying to solve the darn thing).

@rinkydinkydoink I stick to the crossword, Jumble, Boggle, and Seven Little Words. The check to sports on TV section.

@rinkydinkydoink I never figured out Sudoku for Dummies. The very concept makes my head hurt.

What about crosswords? I mean the New York Times crosswords.

@rinkydinkydoink Those I’m still quite good on. Part of it’s eyesight.
