Time Magazine, Readers' Digest, Travel and Leisure (??), and National Geographic Adventure.
I have no idea why I still subscribe to Travel and Leisure or National Geographic Adventure. a) I don't go on many 'adventures', and b) the places featured in both are places that my wife and I will never afford.

Newsweek.
That's the only one currently, but in the past I've subscribed to Atlantic Monthly, Time, Rolling Stone, Sports Illustrated (when I was a kid), Playboy (college), The Cats Pause (is that a magazine?), Smithsonian, and National Geographic.

The New Yorker (best magazine on the stand, IMO), Harper's, The Atlantic Monthly, The Week (very good little current events magazine), and just recently The New York Times Review of Books.
Well, okay. My dirty little secret is that I don't subscribe to them, my grandmother does. I call her Grannie. She mails them to Louisville from Whitley City every week in a small little box that you couldn't open with a hand grenade. God love her.

I don't know if it even still published but I subscribed to OMNI magazine for years and the Scientific American for several years as well. With so much to read for free on the Net I do not subscribe to any now.

Loved Omni back in high school. They used to publish some very fine science fiction. (I could be mistaken, but I don't think they're in print anymore.)

Glad to see they still are publishing Wizard mags. I have the first 3-4 years worth of those things mixed in with the rest of my comics collection.

These days I try to keep the subscriptions to the minimum.
My husband has a load of them in his waiting room, sometimes he will bring one home for me.
The usual imports from the office are: Arch. Digest, Coastal Living, Travel and Leisure.
I currently subscribe to Natl. Geo, Domino, Home and Garden and La Herencia.( a publication for New Mexicans)
The first magazine I ever subscribed to was: Avant Garde For years , I kept all my issues , eventually they slipped away.Wish I had them now. Or not, do I really need old magazines?
After that , I subscribed to the BlueTail Fly and the New Yorker. Rolling Stone. When Vanity Fair began under Tina Brown, I subscribed.
Over the years, I've taken ESPN, Mad ,Connoisseur, Ceramics Monthly, Guitar Player, Redbook, the New York Magazine, New Mexico Magazine, Southwest Art, Art News, Utne Reader, Atlantic Monthly, Smithsonian, Omni,Time, the Economist.
My husband subcribes to motorcyle and car magazines. He reads them in one sitting and puts them in the recycling bin. I keep the dang things around forever...then swear I will never buy another one!:cool:

Smithsonian, American History, and Mens Health (my son's school raises money by selling subscriptions - not the best way to raise money, but . . .).

Time & Better Homes & Gardens just ran out land I am not renewing. No time to read plus, they are not my fav anyway.
I dropped all others in July b/c they were just coming in and collecting dust.
I get a Parenting mag every month as a gift from a friend and the same friend passes me People & Newsweek.

Do you ever check out Smoke magazine? Here's a link to a story of an up and coming Cuban artist, Mayra Veronica. I think it's "hot" to see a good looking woman smoking a cigar.

Thanks for the heads-up. I've heard of Smoke magazine, but not had the chance to check it out.
