NWFlyer 2 #1 August 23, 2005 So I go out to pick up my mail this afternoon and there's a magazine in a brown paper wrapper. I think "What prankster subscribed me to new porn? And I wonder if it's any good?" But I look more closely and I realize it's just my neighbor's National Geographic, put in the wrong mailbox. Has it always been in the porn wrapper? I mean, I know that many a young boy whacked off to bare-chested native ladies, but have we come to the point where this is considered porn?"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't subscribed to NG in years, but a lot of my magazines are now coming in a protective wrapper. Prevents it from getting chewed up like my copy of Parachutist by the USPS automated sorting machines.50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Good point, but the ones I get usually come in clear plastic "there's nothing inappropriate in here" wrappers. Not the porn wrappers. But maybe that says something about the magazines you're subscribing to. I'm still convinced someone's worried about the naked people inside National Geographic.

jtval 0 #11 August 24, 2005 the reason theydon't ship em in plastic is because it cost too much. it would be great if they could keep em from getting ripped but when people alrady bitch about the prices ( PARACHUTIST MAG/ USPA FEE) they need to do what they can to keep people buying. i think one out of 12 gets ripped on average. not really worth the extra money imo. as for skydiving, I bet it would raise the price A LOT. if they shipped em all in plastic, tooMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knobee 0 #12 August 24, 2005 QuoteHas it always been in the porn wrapper? I've been a subscriber to NG since the early 1970s, and yes, it has always come in the brown paper sack.
