But what to call my newspaper? In the days of primitive internet searches, I didn’t want something that could be easily verified as nonexistent. At the time, there was a series “community” papers (in reality closer to newsletters) that were published in the suburbs of Atlanta, all with the same name. I just had to pick a town that wasn’t covered yet.

I became the first and last “employee” of the Duluth Neighbor.

Did anyone here ever create a newspaper or a blog to get some sort of free stuff?

I saw my friend approach Mets second baseman Edgardo Alfonzo and overheard him ask if he could ask a few questions. “No hablo ingles,” Alfonzo replied, shortly before turning and speaking English to a nearby teammate.

I found this funny for some reason.
