The Internet’s got bugs…

Today I got a sales call from the Salt Lake Tribune / Deseret News trying to sell me a subscription to the newspaper. When I told the guy that I read the newspaper online he said, “Well, the problem with getting it online is that the Internet’s got bugs. The only bugs you have to worry about with the paper are the bugs you smack with it.” Needless to say, I didn’t sign up.

Pretty funny. Had to share.

    That’s awesome. That almost displays more tech ignorance than I had about six months ago. ;)

    Jimmy,

    That is a great story. I have had them try to sell me a subscription online and they actually charge a fee… Odd considering the free news programs out there!
