I figure there might be some link of personality and what they recieve in the mail every week/month.
My household is subsribed of course to a small local newspaper, The Houston Chronicle , and the more local local newspaper (but won’t say).
But I am on the mailing list for Time Magazine and Popular Science . Why we don’t get National Geographic I don’t know; but we should.
Yep. Nothin badass or vulgar or seditious, and no chicks in bikinis on Harley’s for this Sweater-vested man .
I am only subscribed to two currently: Nature , and Natural History .

I was going to say none, but then I remembered that as a member of the Institute of Internal Auditors I receive a subscription to Internal Auditor magazine.
That’s it though. No newspaper subscription, no other magazines, nothing. But I do receive a healthy supply of offeres for Capital One credit cards.

Loads of 'em.
The Economist . Obviously, everyone here knows what that is.
Scientific American . Likewise.
National Geographic . And again.
TLS . Highbrow book reviews.
Mojo . The monthly magazine of choice for the British Rock Snob. Contains regular articles on Tim Buckley, Nick Drake and Captain Beefheart.
Wire . Magazine on experimental music. They did have Radiohead on the front cover once but they received numerous letters complaining of a sell-out to mainstream populism. Contains regular articles on recent developments in Portuguese electronica and Norweigan Death Metal.
Prospect . Highbrow news and commentary. Once gave away a copy of the Human Genome Sequence on CD-ROM.
History Today . Fairly obvious what that’s about.
Sight and Sound . Monthly film magazine.
