Most interesting newspaper site on the web

Not because its conservative or anything. Actually its a small town weekly with a unique solution to putting their newspaper online. Its such a simple solution you'd wonder why the big dailies didn't think of it.

just click on the front page images until the new window pops up, then use the buttons at the top to turn the page and such.

The chronological police report is "charming": 

"1:34am - Officer Kindon on report of dog barking."

"7:35pm - Officer Kindon assist subject who had fallen and was unable to get up."  (No need for LifeAlert here) 

Ah, the small town life.....

Compared to a Dallas paper:

"Officers find human head on LBJ"  (just kidding)
