I have received two issues of Rolling Stone magazine in the last week.

They have my name and address printed on them in the little label box, so they haven't been misdelivered. Apparently I have a subscription?

Which is a mite perplexing, because I haven't, to the best of my knowledge, signed up for it, nor is it a title that I would sign up for. And I can't think of anybody who would give me a subscription as a gift.

It's quite inexplicable.

That happened to me when my airline points expired on an airline I didn't fly on very often. They cashed them out into a free subscription. They actually can have some rather insightful articles on sociopolitical issues.

Yeah, it looks like there may be an article or two per issue that are of interest. I'll certainly keep it around for bathroom reading.

And that may well explain where the subscription came from! Thanks!
