Parker's News Stand was a High Point institution. I believe the newsstand first opened in 1945 and…read moreclosed circa 2010. It was your classic, old-school, city newsstand, stocked with papers from up and down the East Coast, as well as all sorts of books and magazines. My dad, who consumed many physical newspapers back in the day (Barron's, Wall Street Journal, etc.), was a regular at Parker's News. It was a small shop, popular among local residents and furniture market visitors alike. When my picture was published in the February 1995 issue of GamePro Magazine (issue #67), my dad went to Parker's that weekend and bought out their entire stock of that issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6yHKFFd5iY&t=294s I remember making a special visit to Parker's in the mid-to-late 90s for a News Talk 1230 WMFR cookbook signing. Morning show host (and our neighbor) Max Meeks and company were at Parker's selling and signing cookbooks. https://www.yelp.com/biz/radio-station-wmfr-high-point I remember one of the younger guys with the WMFR crew was reading a professional wrestling magazine from one of the nearby shelves. I was a wrestling fan too. In the late 80s/early 90s, I thought pro wrestling was real. How dare Ric Flair cheat with the "Macho Man" Randy Savage's wife, Miss Elizabeth, as shown in the April 1992 issue of WWF Magazine? John A. Nagy wrote an excellent piece on Parker's News, published October 21, 1994 in the Greensboro News & Record.

Of course, it doesn't appeal to the far left liberals - they are content to read the daily paper which carries the Democratic Party's water and mirrors the propaganda emanating from the Washington regime. I never cease to marvel at the depth of coverage which this weekly paper provides - and the investigative reporting is on par with the best "big city" newspapers (that is, the few unbiased papers remaining). I look forward to every issue as do the increasing number of readers (just compare the Real Estate advertising in this paper vs. the daily rag). As I previously said, "Thank goodness for the Rhino".

The discount and earned rewards are worth the cost of membership. I could spend all day there, perusing the various things that interest me. I am not happy with their change to adding a code to get into the bathroom. I realize they had issues with homeless people misusing the bathroom, but as a rectal cancer survivor, I don't have the time to hunt for an employee to get the code. I was literally seconds away from a bowel accident today, then had to turn around and find an employee. I was lucky, there was a guy shelving books close to the bathrooms. What if he hadn't been there, though? If I had to walk to the customer service desk or the register to get the code, I would have definitely had an accident. My suggestion to anybody that has bathroom issues, or small children, ask for the code as soon as you walk in the door. That way, you don't have to hunt for an employee and risk accidents. That is what I will be doing from now on.
