Not all of us need to check it each day to see if we're still here.

No, I didn't.

Please share your findings with the rest of the class at your earliest convenience.

They used the same picture for two people

Hey Dogbreath

I don't know what you've been smoking or where you got your copy of The Sun, but I just grabbed a copy from the recycle bin in my complex and there is no picture that is duplicated on two obits.

Life in your little berg must be pretty slow and boring if you have nothing better to do with your time than go through the obits with a fine tooth comb, and then hallucinate about seeing a duplicate photo.

Bad Doggie!

Remember the Sun thinks so highly of their Okanagan customers that they print off their copies before they do the proofreading!

Seriously, the Interior & Island probably get sent the first editions, and corrections are made before the copies most of us see.

Sun and Province - bah humbug

Even in Abbotsford....a mere 70kms down the highway, we're getting the Province second edition delivered to our door. Half the time the sports scores are omitted. Pathetic. This is 2008 isn't it?

Why would you get scores out of a newspaper? There's something called the internet. This is 2008, isn't it?
