Having been a modern paperboy, I can tell you that it's easiest for the paper people if you stop it. They're *supposed* to notice if you haven't picked up your paper in a few days, and make a report, which they hate to do, since it requires going back to the office after the route, not something you plan to do. Then there's a whole line of things that need to happen before someone starts calling your (empty) house and leaving messages.
If you get the paper delivery canceled while you're gone, then no one has to deal with that. I know you guys want your paperboy to be happy, right?
