or I should say my dead bunny does. So my address stays private. Have to say it does w the Nation. But since you asked, I only receive about half the mags and get them 3 weeks late. There is some mean Republican in the post office pitching my mags! Grrr!

I stopped receiving many more, bec. the recycling was out of control. My sister gets Cooks Illustrated, and we share.

I saw that you subscribe to Creative Keepsakes (so does my wife)...she's also on their message-board a good amount of time..
To be honest with you, I'm surprised at how big scrapbooking has become over the last couple of years...or maybe its always been big and I've just noticed it since my wife started doing it.

And some very boring banking & insurance magazines that I didn't order...maybe I'm on a mailing list because I have insurance & securities licenses?

Edited on Fri May-06-05 08:13 AM by deutsey
I still subscribe to
Harper's The Nation In These Times
I had many others (Utne Reader, Tricycle among them), but the cost and lack of time to read them all forced me to jettison them.
On edit: A friend passes on her New Yorkers to me when she's done with them.

43. Harper's, Mother Jones, Vanity Fair, Reader's Digest (hey, it was |
|
a gift), and The Globe (a tabloid, and it was a gift from my sister. Seriously). I used to get Time and Newsweek, but let those run out some time ago - they pissed me off too much with their biased coverage of Boy George.

They have really good articles for women and I am a fashion junkie. I read a lot more such as People and others, but do not have a subscription to them.

46. Is "Real Simple" the magazine on how to simplify your life? |
|
I've avoided it since overflowing piles of magazines are definitely keeping me from the simple life!
Two that I do get: Juxtapoz & Mary Engelbreit's magazine. (Odd combo?) Plus the Texas Observer!
