I read it as well. And while it does lean a little to the left, it's not like reading the New York Times. Being a lifelong Texan I enjoy the articles about our great State.txinvestigator wrote:I read TM, am I a brailness twit?casingpoint wrote:Texas Monthly is an informationless piece of coffetable crap published for brainless twits of faux intellect for places like River Oaks and doctors offices. Most people only get as far as the pictures. Some don't get past the cover. There are fewer readers than buyers. This time, they were smoking too much dope at the editor's desk. Willie will love this cover. He probably has a copy in his bus now, waiting to "roll" again.
And the cover on this month's issue is actually a homage to the famous over of National Lampoon's cover in the 70's that said "if you don't buy this magazine we'll shoot this dog". It's called satire. After all if we can't laugh at ourselves we shouldn't laugh at others.
If you haven't picked up a copy in a while give it a try. Last month's issue would be a good one. They listed the top 60 something Taco's in Texas. While it's purely subjective it was great reading. And what better job could that have been? Driving the state eating Taco's. Mmmm!!
