This months giveaway probably has to be up there with one of my favorites. Magazines aren’t what they used to be and that’s just too damn bad.
Who doesn’t love magazines? Magazines are for everyone of all ages. Comics, politics, nudey magazines, food, arts, hobby’s, weddings, health, women’s magazines, men’s magazines. There really are magazines for all walks of life. Go to Barnes & Noble some day and check out the magazine section. Grab a cup of coffee and settle in. But don’t buy anything. They love that.
When I was a kid we (and by we, I mean me and my dog) would walk up to the drugstore and buy heavy metal magazines. Those were the days. Magazines ruled and so did good music. A magazine with rock bands, their tour buses, guitars and drums, amps and stage sets. I swore that was going to be me one day. And it still might.
Now magazines have pictures of “musicians” pushing their tennis shoes and perfumes. Instruments are so 90’s. Man, how times have changed. I better stop before I get myself all fired up.
When I was a kid, a hoarder had all kinds of magazines. My Mom had cake decorating magazines that reached the arm on the couch that she would set her coffee cup on. I used to love to flip through those damn things too.
As I got older and fatter, my new found love was cooking magazines. I used to get pissed off that they didn’t have much for dessert in the magazines. Then came along baking and pastry magazines. I was hooked and saw a career in it. And some day, I just might have one.
People don’t read much as they used too. I’ve noticed this as people that come in to the restaurant don’t read the menu and just make shit up and expect it to appear on their table. Magazines have dwindled in numbers and those that haven’t, cost as much as a book.
This hasn’t stopped me from going further into debt to buy them.
I am going further into debt because I want you too to enjoy the wonderful things about magazines. So this month I am giving away a magazine subscription to one of my lucky readers.
I have it narrowed down to three magazines that I happen to be quite smitten with. I’ll let you choose which one you’d like the subscription too.
I really do love and appreciate all of you. Well, not that angry bitch in Quebec who cried about my last giveaway but the rest of you… I love and appreciate you more than you know!!
Happy Reading!!
Oh and make sure you’ve signed up for my Newsletter/Giveaway for your chance at the magazine subscription.
Omgosh, that paragraph about the Quebec incident had me laugh out loud. I could only imagine.
I offered alternatives and ways that we could make it work. Guess she just wanted to be miserable instead. People.
