Magazines!

Recommended Posts

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:
Parachutist
Skydiving
Glamour
Cosmo (I'm so ashamed.)
Maxim (For the articles.)
Companion Parrot Quarterly (No joke!)
Too Much Coffee Man
The Writer
That'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.

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. :)Companion Parrot Quarterly . . . hehe :D
