Via
a newspaper exchange, I get copies of my former newspaper, the Marble Falls
Highlander, at my new location.
Well,
I knew it offered to run pet obits, but we didn’t get any while I was there.
What
I didn’t know until now was that, although obits for people are free for the
first 500 words, the pet obit has a minimum charge of $10.
Never
heard of such a thing before, with a newspaper valuing pets above people. That
said, readers can probably insert jokes about this if they want, and there’s
nothing I can do to stop you.
