I hadn't thought of someone unwrapping china and the paper blowing away. Such interesting posts.<br />I used to line my cabinets with newspapers. I have also used them to wrap fragile items. <br />Thank you for this article and for inspiring the responses; reading them made my day more enjoyable.<br />Hugs,<br />JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214796594702277709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-30025739364175071462016-01-06T09:25:05.559-06:002016-01-06T09:25:05.559-06:00Okay, where the paper came from... hmmm...
I thin...Okay, where the paper came from... hmmm... <br />I think someone was doing a January purge. The new year is a time when people resolve to get rid of clutter, so an old stack of newspapers might have been the target of a zealous declutterer....<br />...Or maybe an old, out-of-use out house finally blew over in the wind and the stash of papers used either as toilet paper alternatives or insulation to cover the walls, was subject to the vagaries of the wind....<br />...Or maybe it was dropped by a modern day Rip Van Winkle on his way to get his morning coffee after a 36 1/2 year nap.<br />...Or maybe a young woman unwrapped the china she just inherited from her grandmother and bits of paper blew from the wrapping....<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05198585505712843153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-28272027475816899392016-01-06T09:14:01.092-06:002016-01-06T09:14:01.092-06:00Now, that would have really been cool!Now, that would have really been cool!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05198585505712843153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-38031200556903560102016-01-06T08:48:32.086-06:002016-01-06T08:48:32.086-06:00You never know what the wind of fortune brings. So...You never know what the wind of fortune brings. Someone must have done some house cleaning and this old newspaper fell out of the recycle truck. It's always interesting finding an old newspaper. <br />I remember finding an old newspaper clipping last year in a file in my office, from July 1966 and the hourly wages had gone up to $.90 an hour from $.75 the previous year. Unbelievable... It's now $10.30. <br /><br />Have a great day.<br />JBJuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-16437170714527217802016-01-06T06:37:32.563-06:002016-01-06T06:37:32.563-06:00Very interesting...I like to read old news papers....Very interesting...I like to read old news papers. I find old news papers and ads usually in packing. We have old glassware stored away wrapped in newspaper, I find it interesting to look back at how simple the news was or how low sales ads were. <br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109633602729593188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-83677403838952819402016-01-05T19:51:58.519-06:002016-01-05T19:51:58.519-06:00I remember the gas crunch in the U.S.-one of the f...I remember the gas crunch in the U.S.-one of the few times the Americans came to Canada to fill up.

I hope it is not foretelling of soon RISING prices!! :-o.But besides that, I love to run across an old newspaper.<br />But weather wise, it is Cooling down all round, it seems!!!<br />jack69https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884137603402812926noreply@blogger.com
