the new new yorker is almost here..........

ok, so the new yorker will not be here for several more days.......even though it is printed in danville, ky.....not 5 miles from my house.....i almost never get it until thursday or friday....whilst the content has been online since monday.........i have oft remarked that this magazine is one of my main pleasures in life.........an aside.....i had to explain just today at the library......who was suggesting soy shakes as a remedy for hot flashes...that i do not like sweet milk shakes....whether they are chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry.....nor do i like 'bars' of any kind.........i do not find pleasure in the taste, the texture.....and....it is only in danville that women my age feel free to discuss menopause while checking out books..........i was flattered, by the way, that these women were surprised that i was old enough..........anyway.....back to the new yorker.........i just love the cartoons.......they are so insightful.......so frank.........
