Supermarket Culture

There's something that's always bothered me about the barrage of magazine covers that confront us in checkout lines at Supermarkets. I don't mean the National Enquirer types ("Woman Disappears Behind Coral Head - Later Gives Birth To 10-Pound Octobaby!") , but mainstream rags like People and Us. Have a look at the cover below and let me know if you agree.

Since most of the people I know generally agree on the benefits of marriage or at least monogamy, it struck me that this is representative of a different culture altogether. So I started thinking: what kind of culture is characterized by Jen getting back at Brad by going out with Vince. It's obvious - high school!

Is it like Peter Pan: having grown up we long for a youth we never had? It's so sad...it makes me want to go shopping!

Hi Mike,

You are a man of talents ! I was looking at some of the pictures that you have taken on your various trips - they are simply awsome !

Hoep the things otherwise are going well at your end.

I've joined SideStep, a Traveller serach company, about a year back. It is working out good so far.

Drop me a line or two with your contacts when you get a moment.

Regards, ronak
