okay this subject is magazines what do you like and what do you dislike about magazines
well i like them because i can read them at my convenience and i don't like a lot of the ads i get in them especially those stupid cards that fall out of them all the time
that's my main complaint on magazines too and i get magazines some of them are just pictures and advertisements
uh Life magazine is like that i quit subscribing to that it's just uh magazine i mean pictures and um
advertisements what is your favorite magazine
oh i like the magazines like uh the home remodeling magazines like Home or Decorating and Remodeling things like that because you can see what other people are doing with their houses and maybe you could do it in yours
um-hum you like to do remodeling in your home
yeah we've learned how to do a lot of things on our own
for instance what are you doing now anything in particular
uh no not right now um i haven't gotten any magazines that have shown me anything lately
what other kind of magazines do you like
well i like Reader's Digest we get that and my husband subscribes to Scientific American i think he's a frustrated doctor
because he uh reads constantly we have a person in our area
that uh his little girl was diagnosed as as terminal and uh he came across an article about leukemia so he had me fix up the
make copies of it and give it to them and tell them that there's hope for her and all this
hm how many different kinds of magazines do you subscribe to
well right now i i dropped People but we have uh Better Homes and Gardens Scientific American and um
uh what's the other one i think it's Ladies' Home Journal or Redbook something like that
i used to get People but it cost too much so i had to quit taking it
did you enjoy it
uh sometimes they'd have good articles but a lot of it was kind of uh
a lot of fluff and not a lot of substance and it and it like i said it cost a lot of money because i think they came every week or something like that so it was a lot higher than the monthly magazines
yeah
my husband likes to read sports and fishing magazines all the time that's pretty boring to me
do you get those as subscriptions
oh he gets one to uh fishes hm what's it called Stream Field and Stream that's what he gets
hm
but that's the only one but he'd get more if he could
when my husband was younger he liked Outdoor Life he thought that was a pretty good magazine
i don't think i've ever seen that one i don't know if they still do it or not
i don't know my
it might not be because it's been a while
you know what i really hate about magazines is those smelly cards that have perfume or cologne
what's that
with the scratch and sniffs
the well the ones aren't they're not scratch and sniff anymore the the one kind i'm talking about you open it up and
the fragrance is just there it's like a fold that's glued shut but usually
oh
when you get the magazine the whole magazine smells like that fragrance and you can't get the smell out and it and sometimes it makes you have a headache because it's so strong
what magazines are those i don't know if i've ever seen one in mine or not
well they came in People and a lot of times if you buy like the fashion magazines the Cosmopolitan or the Glamour or or Elle those type have have them in
oh i don't get those
i don't get them on a regular basis but sometimes i've bought them
hm
do you have any pet uh magazines
no we we have two dogs but no magazines come in uh regarding pets at all
do you like the Reader's Digest when the in their uh theirs they're kind of interesting they have the uh
i like Reader's Digest but i usually borrow my parents' of that because they get it so i didn't have to subscribe
oh
oh
so you get away easy huh
yeah well a little bit
but i like the they're interesting and plus i like to read through the in the anecdotes and the jokes and things on those
sometimes the book excerpts are good too but mostly i like the other articles
yeah
and i like the vocabulary section in that
yeah i like that too sometimes you can get a pretty good uh
and sometimes the real definition is something totally of opposite of what you thought it was
yeah doesn't that blow your mind away when that happens
that's something
and
sometimes i like the true to life stories but sometimes they get too melodramatic
like what do you mean
it seems
