hello
Phil here in Rochester New York
my goodness well i'm in Texas so i sound i found sound very Texan
well this should be an easy one i so much so like we could we have lots to talk about
well what what do you subscribe to or are you ready for me to press one and and let's continue our conversation
yeah that would be all right
okay hold on
okay
what what magazines do you prescribe to or do you have
uh actually it would be easier to tell you what i don't get
okay
because i uh i receive Time Newsweek and the US News and World Report every week i get you know all the news magazines
uh-huh
and pretty much everything associated with my hobby which includes gardening magazines and uh
uh uh radio and things like that so i i'm just loaded over here
uh-huh
well i'm not see i i i take Time and uh uh uh off and on during my life i've taken uh Good Housekeeping
so there's i work so much and then when i'm not working then i'm active in i do i do not do the the enough reading like i should
yeah i i since i'm in radio up here i have to try and stay informed with uh
certainly
what goes on around there i i like Newsweek better than i like Time i you know magazines for me i get behind but i like them because
uh the especially with the news magazines you get much more analysis than the newspaper can give
and uh i'm interested also in reading some of the stories that just aren't big enough to make into the local papers here
right
right
and uh of course you know for gardening i i get Better Homes and Gardens up here mainly i get gardening information maybe some recipes and sometimes these things have coupons in them too
right right
and that more or less pays for your subscription
uh-huh
well i'm i'm very conservative so i don't jump
uh i'm a single parent so i don't blow a lot of money in anywhere
sure
sure oh yeah it that's the thing you know they they have to be careful about which ones you get because they can be really expensive if you're
right
not careful not to mention finding the time to read them it's even hard for me i'd i have mail buckets full of magazines i haven't had a chance to look at yet
right
well see that uh i was really i was i do good to even get through excuse me i do good to get through Time sometimes
yeah that i i i like Time a little bit uh
i it's probably my second favorite of the news magazines
well you think Newsweek might be a better
uh i like Newsweek better uh because they have
uh a couple of things i like they have the cartoons and the quotes in there which i think are funny and some of the stories you know they have the analysis like all the rest of them do but they also get some more offbeat stories
huh
uh-huh
which uh i'm interested in finding out more about and it seems just to me to be a better read than Time Time is my second favorite
uh-huh
uh Time excels at the coverage of in-depth issues you know if you want to really find out something in-depth and learn about it Time is a good magazine
right well what about what in your i'm asking all uh i uh uh really different question in a way but since you are in the in the public what is what does your area feel about abortion do you do is there any
and U S
general consensus or
well i i kind of fall down in to the choice category just because really as a man i really you know i don't particularly believe that i have a particular say over what someone else some woman has
or
you know she has her choice to do
right
well we won't fight over this because you know i me myself i don't know that i'm forty six
i don't know that i ever could have or ever would have an abortion
uh-huh
but now at forty six let me tell you one thing i'd have an abortion
if i were to become pregnant but don't intend to you know but uh you know just just leave my body alone i have my choices
yeah
uh-huh
yeah that
and uh and i feel i really you know i don't believe in in
getting pregnant when if there's any way to prevent it but it happens all the time you know i have a a sister-in-law that had her tubes tied nine years ago
uh-huh
before she had her little bouncing baby boy
sure
you know so there's things like that happen of course now they they didn't she wouldn't consider an abortion but they didn't intend for that third child you know intend to have that third child
uh-huh
but uh you know just uh i've seen Jane Fonda i've i watch very little T V also but i've seen Jane Fonda on T V at my mother's house and she said tells you she's telling the government to stay out of her womb
and i feel that way you know you've got enough business you've got enough problems you've got enough fraud you've got enough uh you know
