Regatta Pointe Strikes (Sucks?) Again!!

It''s hard to believe, but it''s true. They have decided to remove all the newspaper boxes. I''m told it''s because "they''re a bad image for the marina."

You will have to walk to the ship''s store (far out at the end of the marina) to get a paper, so they can make a lousy 13 cents. Plus you will have to pay the tax.

Additionally, they will be giving away their paper of choice free on Fri-Sat-Sun with the free coffee.

I am angry because 1) I don''t read their approved paper; 2) I am inconvenienced, as I buy my paper around 6:30 a.m., before the store is open, also I buy it on my way out, so where it is located now is convenient 3) I do not want to pay more for something unnecessarily

Further, the folks who visit the restaurant will not be able to buy their papers, and I''ve seen many folks from the area drive up to get a paper from the boxes.

She was asked about this and was as rude and arrogant as ever. I can''t wait to leave in September!!!
