Educational thread: what magazine or book has

[babylonsister]

influenced you? I currently get none, but I'm thinking Christmas presents. Get me nothing but a subscription to The Nation, Vanity Fair, and perhaps Harper's?
My sister and I are going to share the purchase of a pig, duck, goat or whatever is needed in Africa via Oprah's site. Say what you will, she gets it done. It's a heifer site.
And from Dad, who sends me $50, I think the ACLU will benefit from both of us.

2. The New Yorker. It's FANTASTIC.

Just for Sy Hersh and David Sedaris alone!

4. Books?

I dont' get magazines, hardly ever. But in the term book. The one book that has influenced me a lot is Memnoch the Devil by Anne Rice. Its a solid book, its a different look at god/heaven/hell and what nots. I read a lot of books, but this one alwasy sticks out in my head....
