FINALLY got my 📰 issue of the Sunday, December 10, 2023 issue of NYT, 2 days later but better late than never! 😡🎊🎈

For me, it’s MUCH faster and a way more pleasant experience to flip thru paper NYT 📰 than clicking on bunch of links.

And easier to physically write notes with an actual 🖋️pen — write down ideas/thoughts or mark interesting articles to read later.

Plus, more likely to encounter random, interesting stories that may be of interest since not bound by algorithms of previously read.

I know at least one mutual person as Michael Stipe, of REM; Andy LeMaster, who is an Audio Engineer/Musician whom I have met at a CMJ event.

There are several other ways I can link to Michael Stipe via other people in Music, Arts, Publishing industries.

Yes, I have seen the band REM play but can not recall any details; still have their concert t-shirt.
