Reads the Whole Newspaper, Every Page ~ Seventy-Two Finishes Before Lunch

Front section, sports, the obituaries for names he knows and the classifieds for no reason. Seventy-two years and he is the last subscriber on the street who gets paper delivered. For the man who knows the weather, the scores and who got arrested before you have had coffee.

• Grandpa Trivia: The grandkids learned long ago not to argue facts with him at breakfast.

Party Dayz made this round ornament for the tree that marks another year worth celebrating. Pick ceramic at 3 inches or aluminum at 3.6 inches, and it arrives with its hanging string. A wipe with a damp cloth keeps it ready for every party season to come. Tie it onto a birthday gift, hang it on the tree, or slip it into a card for the friend who needs a reason to celebrate, which, as Kelsey likes to point out, is everyone.
