I dropped Reader’s Digest a few years ago after they started printing what amounts to love letters to the Obamas. They pestered me with offers of nearly free magazines for a year after that in hopes I would renew my subscription.

Somehow, I managed to acquire (without my knowledge or consent) a full year's subscription to the rag last year. Month after month, the things appeared in my mailbox, and month after month, they went directly into the trash without being opened. Thank goodness, I got a "final" copy last month.

RD went off the tracks when they started adding full color, full-page ads and slick formatting, and slimming down. I had a collection of the plump, newsy gems of the fifties, and I read every word in every one of them, even the stories I had no real interest in. If RD croaks this year, it will be a merciful, long-delayed croaking. Good riddance.
