Fit to Stay the Same

To say that I'm a creature of habit is a bit like saying that I enjoy food.  Or that our trend in current health care spending is vexing.  A gross understatement.  For the past seven years, ever since an upperclassman suggested it at the Bo' Diversity Retreat (in that shady motel that recruited guests to be our wait staff), I've subscribed to the Times headlines via email.  I read it every morning.  And now, after 7 glorious years, the Times have decided to tinker with the layout of these emails (and their pages, don't get me started on that).  You know how they say that in terms of economic downturn, people want what's familiar?  To most people, that's Campbell's soup (am I cribbing from an episode of Fresh Prince?  I vaguely remember this).  To me, it's the same Times headlines I've read since I was 18.  Give me back my childhood, NYT.
