Things change so much in SJ and I am just starting to be in the city again. Will be there for football season and wondered if any of you guys know where to get US newspapers in downtown SJ. Like to pick up a couple a week. Thanks for any suggestions.

Wow! That has gone up! I use to get one about once a week. Thanks, appreciate it.... As much info as their is on the internet, I have a hard time getting exactly the source I like. Guess I'm just nostalgic for print.... :D

Not to be all stupid about it but all major US newspapers are available by subscription (all the paper) or just for reading (selected sections) on a computer, tablet or mobile device (what used to be called a telephone). I have nostalgia for paper but need the info/opinions more...and if paper is unavailable or silly expensive, what choice is left?

If you have a Kindle you can get subscriptions to most major U.S. daily papers and magazines. I find it much better reading from a hand held device then from a computer but that a matter of personal preference.
