I got my latest issue and there was not one subscription card anywhere in there.

Not even the bound in tear off kinds.

How in the world do you expect me to save my place in the mag without a card?

I leave them in public places when I'm done with them, I swear!

EDIT: I just had an idea, is this like finding the golden ticket in the Willie Wonka movie and did I win the grand prize?

the card-free state of the magazine is nice....but what I really liked was that UTCC Sanford & Son truck. I had the biggest, cheesiest grin when I read that GRM is going to do a feature article on it. Oh, and the back page...promised an Omni GLH buyer's guide.

Epic awesomeness achieved via automotive silliness....That's why I love you guys.

I resemble the incineration behind that remark.

(Man from the Argument sketch enters an office)

Man: (Michael Palin) I want to complain.

Complainer: (Eric Idle) You want to complain! Look at these shoes. I've only had them three weeks and the heels are worn right through.

Man: No, I want to complain about...

Complainer: If you complain nothing happens, you might as well not bother.

Man: Oh!

Complainer: Oh my back hurts, it's not a very fine day and I'm sick and tired of this office.

I, for one, am ecstatic. I hate those stupid cards.

Good riddance! The first thing I do upon cracking open a new issue is to rip out all the cards that mess up my page turning. The percentage of people who actually still use those things has got to be miniscule.

If I took a mag to work I'd black out the name/ address and rip up the sub cards. There were a few pranksters in the shops who would fill the cards out w/ addresses of the unwitting. They never got me but one PITA boss got hammered w/ subs.
