The only place I encounter Newsweak anymore is in my dentist’s waiting room.

I asked my dentist to take Newsweek and Time out of the waiting room. He had his receptionist monitor how many people picked them up for a while, and found that the gals all read women's magazines, US, and People, and the guys all read Sports Illustrated and Business Week. About six months later he told me that since "nobody's reading them, they're not doing any damage." I volunteered to donate a subscription to National Review, which after reading an issue, he accepted.

A lot of places such as the "Y", dentists or doctors will accept subscription donations. You might try it.

“Newsweel in my dentist’s waiting room”

You know, that’s scary. The last two months I’ve been trying to get my Army Reserve physical fixed so I can deploy. Saw many specialists (on my dime, that’s how it is nowadays) and I swear in every last one of their waiting rooms there were copies of Newsweek. Everywhere.

As I say, spooky.

“Newsweel....!!?”

(Sorry. But maybe that’s an improvement.)

;^)
