Jessica 0 #1 March 25, 2002 I just got my first issue of Skydiving magazine! *hugging magazine to chest, racing around apartment*They say you can tell a lot about a person by what magazines they read, and I tend to agree. Here's what I subscribe to, or read on a pretty regular basis:ParachutistSkydivingGlamourCosmo (I'm so ashamed.)Maxim (For the articles.)Companion Parrot Quarterly (No joke!)Too Much Coffee ManThe WriterThat's all I can think of...besides the random Gen-X-pandering mags I pick up occasionally in Borders. There's this cool new one called Ready Made -- anyone seen it?Um, anyway, anyone else?No, it's not updated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottbre 0 #3 March 25, 2002 I think that techically, I am still recieving the ABA Journal from my one semester in law school, which is weird because i haven't paid for it and don't really read it. I don't have other subscriptions because I have been moving around too much in the last year and the address changes on a bunch of stuff like that is a pain in the ass.
