Front Page News

After dropping our grandson, the Tan Man, off at daycare my wife and I had a breakfast at the very nice new eatery attached to Great Harvest Bread. We had breakfast paninis and looked over their copy of the New York Times.

The first page of today’s New York Time’s national news section has an article about the retirement, after forty years service, of Superior’s Congressman David Obey. The Duluth Chamber of Commerce Newsletter and Tribune had the story on page three. Go figure.

The Trib’s headline simply suggested that Obey was tired. Well if there is anything the Trib ought to know about its being tired.
