From Rolling Stone

I first stared reading Rolling Stone in the 1970's when my sister.4 started to subscribe to it. I picked up the subscription c. 1984, and carried it till 2005. My subscription lapsed, and I no longer felt compelled to pay the $12 /yr it costs - especially since every library I have worked @ also carries it.

I still like it. I loved several writers who passed through - William Greider, Toure, and Pat O'Rourke (what's his name?). However, what got me into this post was my deep love of this photo of that famous Cub fan. Blaggy himself,Blaggy shitting, the shock on the faces of the asses behind him, the President and Rham's expression -and - finally - Roland Burris drinkingthe kool aid.

Story's not bad, either.

But that picture.......
