Ny neighbor dumped a bunch of National Geographic mags. I took about 8 out of the heap. Basically I can summarize each edition as follows.
One section about some location in the world that you really do not give a sh*t about.
One section about neaderthal men and what great hunters they were.
One section about some a$$holes who have nothing better to do than cross the artic ocean, fall in a few times and lose some fingers to frostbite.
One section on a sunken ship that is about as interesting as the door knob.
That the last time I pick that cr*p out of the trash!!

Maybe they should do an article on your dumpster diving exploits.

nicely i'm going to assert this. all of us be attentive to as a actuality, the to deliver down a 30 tale construction with the help of controlled demolition, it takes around 3 months artwork, with the help of around 30 human beings. they could tear out all of the interior partitions, pre drill into all of the help beams and then string miles of det twine. Now have been meant to 3 how have confidence, that 2 one hundred ten tale homes have been rigged for demolition, and no person knew approximately it ? No tenets, not WTC protection, not one of the maintenance adult males ? Get actual, it would have taken 2 hundred human beings, a twelve months to rig the homes for demo, they might have had to apply 30 miles of set twine. yet not a single individual observed all that artwork occurring ? Did they use Klingon Cloaking technologies ? This conspiracy thought is so stupid , i don't additionally be attentive to why human beings waste thier time on it. be conscious: whats humorous, is i grow to be finding at Huffington positioned up the day only before this and a liberal wrote, that it grow to be a conspiracy that they have got been showing the 9/11 think of and then a narrative approximately Saddam, back to back. for sure they thought the republican controlled PBS grow to be attempting to tug a quickly one.

No I don't. I am a subscriber to NG and have been for off and on for years. What you find trash I find interesting...other cultures, places, people are what make the world go around. I am not one who believes we live in a protected bubble or have my head in the sand. I like in-depth stories that cannot be learned in "soundbites" on TV or paragraphs in newspaper articles that provide little to no background information. It is also acceptable reference material for college papers and I used them at least once in an Art History Class in college writing about sculpture which I chose to write at 'The Vietnam War Memorial Wall" in which NG had the best story ever on the selection of Mai Ling as the architect, fund raising, building and dedication ceremonies of that monument. Nothing has compared to that piece before or after I cried the whole time I was writing it. It is sad that people don't see the value of good information...but I guess that's why some choose to be trash pickers.

I agree with National Geographic. I will post this comment in my web to show the world how narrow minded some people are. We invest time in work, shopping, tv shows, crafts, mechanics... what about culture? why no to take 5 minutes and read about things that are not in our house and talk about it in dinner? The world can be a better place if we all can talk about anything.

I look at this mag at the library. Some ishs have nothing I like, but others have interesting articles and photos. I can say the same about most mags. I don't subscribe to any now, because none are interesting every ish.

I guess your right. The only place I read National Geographic is at the dentist office and it feels like I am reading the same magazine again and again. And I feel weird when they have naked african lady boobies pictures and Im sitting in a public place. To summurize National Geographic it is like meat and potatoes not too exciting but some people cant seem to deveate.

I've always enjoyed reading National Geographic. It definitely is an educational magazine and the photographs are just awesome. I guess you really don't care much about what's going outside your little world. Many many people take great enjoyment from this magazine.

My Grandmother was a life time subscriber to National Geographic. She did not have enough money to travel and it was her way of seeing the world without leaving her house. As a kid I always enjoyed the pictures. Take a look at their homepage and I think you will get a better idea of what they are about.

You truely do not know what a real gold find the National
Geographic mag. is and you're right, it isn't for you. The N.G. is
one of the best mags. out there and are worth every penny spent
to get it. Go crawl back into the hole you came out of.

National Geographic is for people that appreciate anthropology and geography. It's not supposed to be entertaining, that's why schools always have a current issue.

Maybe if there were more people reading NG, then they will get an ideea on how English is supposed to be like...and not this orthographically and gramatically incorrect dialect that so many people practice these days. And they'll get an ideea on what the world around has to offer besides the TV junk.
I am a non-native English speaker.
