BG: What is he?
LG: He is the leader of the, just the newspaper... what is newspaper.
BG: well, he is the executive editor of the newspaper, that is a pretty big deal.
LG: I don't even know what that means.
BG: It means that he is responsible and in charge of the entire operation of the newspaper.
LG: oh...ah, i still don't understand.
BG: ok, a newspaper is like a book, only it comes out everyday with stories about what is happening in the neighborhood and the world. people read it to find out what is going on. so it is a lot of work to get all that in the paper in time for people to read it. you buy it at stands or boys often deliver it to your house in the morning or afternoon.
LG: I mostly know that boys come around and throw newspapers on your doorstep.
BG: yeah, anyway, your grandpa has a big job now being in charge. that is pretty cool.
LG: Yeah, is grandpa famous now?
BG: Kind of...
