Newspapers are old

Newspapers are old. They may be technically modern, but they largely seem out of place in whatever post postmodern age we're in now. Consider then this photo. Can you make it out? Clearly even when papers were new and or necessary, they were still considered inconvenient to hold and read, enough so to warrant an aiding device. In this age that's only intensified, and yet devices such ar this have mostly disappeared. More on what I'm getting at in another, non-mobile post.

Central Park east side by 97th

Central Park near 97th and 5th ave. Note to self: 5 resized photos is about the most that fit in one MMS. After the rain young crows bathed in puddles. But I forgot the battery for my better camera.
