To Subscribe... or Not?

No, this isn't one of those "please subscribe to my RSS feed" posts.  Though -- you know, while we're at it -- it couldn't hurt...

Seriously though, this is about all the many subscriptions I get monthly that I never read.  It isn't that I don't enjoy the magazines, nor that I never try to read them; I carry them along with me whenever I go out, just in case I have some time to kill along the way or what-have-you, and I always enjoy the articles whenever I do read them.   It's just that I honestly do not have the time!

And I've given this a lot of thought because I somehow seem to find the time to read so much online that you would think I could spend an hour or two devouring the latest issue of whatever it is I've paid to receive... and note that word paid -- I have already shelled-out my hard-earned money to receive these rags, so it would seem that that fact, alone, would be the incentive I need to plunk my skinny ass down once a month and give them a look-through.  But, excepting a few trades here and there, I rarely do.

So I am writing this to remind myself to do exactly that.  And, since I've put it in print, I want you to hold me to it!  Seriously.  I want you to say, "Hey MD, read anything new lately? (wink)"  Just every once in a while.  To keep me honest.

Oh, and while we're at it, subscribe to my feed.
