SUNDAY, overhauled

In the mail today, an advertisement for the local Sunday paper. Here is what Sunday amounts to in modern day America, according to the advertisers for the Wisconsin State Journal:

IT'S SUNDAY.
It's when you take a break from the rat race and join the human one. It's when you do what you want to do, at your own pace...
No matter what your ideal Sunday entails--shopping, planning, relaxing or exploring--it all starts with the Sunday Wisconsin State Journal.


No mention of what Sunday used to mean in America: church!
