Paper and ink beat the storm

 |  NCR Today

Three cheers for old fashioned, throwback newspaper delivery! The Huffington Post, Gawker and other websites were down on Tuesday because of power outage problems, but my Washington Post -- the real ink and paper kind -- was in my driveway yesterday and this morning in suburban Maryland. So, take that Sandy! We lost a front railing to crazy winds and rain last night, but the paper was there by 6 this morning. My old newsman's heart was happy.
