Now is the winter of our discontent.*

We picked up a newspaper yesterday since I REALLY need to find a job here in Statesboro... this driving back and forth to Savannah is draining my bank account and my will! Anyway... I had looked online at the paper and found it... lacking to say the least. But, Matt suggested that, as in Savannah, maybe not all the jobs listed in the paper make it to the website. So, we get home and I check the index to find where in the paper the Classifieds are... they're on page 5B (in the Sports section... strange, but whatever). I open up to Section B and find page 1 (not hard), page 2 (also easy), page 3, page 4..... and that's IT!!! NO page 5!! What the heck!? I check again - same findings. I look through the whole paper... no Classified section at all! Matt thought maybe someone had riffled through it and stole just the Classified section. However, upon further consideration we deem this impossible because of the way newspapers are set up: page 1 of any section will always be physically connected to the last page of the section and any additional pages are either 2 or 4 page inserts..... so since page 1 of Section B was connected to page 4... then that's it... no page five to be had. The only reason I bought the paper was for the classified section.... now I have a wasted dollar sitting on the living room floor - maybe I should read it anyway. *sighs*
