2) The Smithsonian (I'm a card-carrying Associate in good standing)


The Sears Catalog and National Geographic were my first sex education journals.

Cross-ROADS?

I thought since they are word puzzles and that they aren't written in the middle of a vehicular intersection, they are more correctly called: crossword puzzles.

I don't buy any computer mags any more either - not since I shut down my Amigaand my C>64.

Actually I really bought them for the free CDs inside them with games and new utilities.

I gave up because the almighty advertising dollar started ruling them and they became very shallow

Good point, Mike . I didn't even think of that - but it's very obvious, isn't it?

Yeah - $$$ talks and we know what is bipedal .

I tend to believe that Wired is going that way too - but I will look the other way for a while as the articles are (sometimes) brilliant and other times they are entertaining .

What I dislike if the 2pt font they use for the articles .
