I hate license agreements. I often skim over them to see if they actually state anything unusal beyond the legelese equivalent of "Don't hack me", but they rarely do. Why does it take huge walls of text and one hour of wrestling with unholy word constructs to tell me that? I hate the lawyers guts, and their spouses', childrens', parents' too, and as well any parts of government that actually allow such abusive practices. I wish them all a long and painful license agreement to sign the next time they try to use their mobile, TV set, car, toaster, or toilet paper.
I could buy a sharp and long kitchen knife without having to sign an agreement saying that I shouldn't use it against a hapless license agreement author, but I do have to sign a 5 page agreement of legalese to purchase a text editor? Really?
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

Users of illegal media (software, movies, music) are more severely punished than serial killers.
There's a lobby for media.
So yes, really.

Symmetry is a beautiful thing, Sander! 
Hooters come to mind. Like martinis, one is not enough, three are too many. Symmetry is everything, not to mention balance...
Will Rogers never met me.

If hooters are symmetrical they ain't real!

I'm an engineer, not a mathematician; hooters are close enough to symmetrical for practical purposes.

Back in my day I got a complaint when the paper arrived late
Then again, I was late because rain/snow/storm/late delivery/overslept (nah I didn't do that )...

No need to. His mother was born in New York, in a past life. All good. Nothing to see here. Move along.

I found the problem. My agency's Outlook has a clutter file. For what ever reason my Daily News was going into the clutter file.

Delete the Clutter folder. Empty Deleted Items folder. Close then open Outlook. Behold you now have a Clutter folder again. 
Ah don't lean on me man, cause you can't afford the ticket
