DRAWING on OBSERVATIONS

Ball point pen on todays newsprint

I thought the funniest line in the 80′s movie “The Big Chill” was delivered by Jeff Goldblum’s character: a writer for a glossy magazine. He said his magazine’s editorial policy was not to write anything longer than the average person could read during the average crap.

That’s why when Rolling Stone announced it’s redesign in o8 would have the mag looking more like it competition, I cringed. I really thought it was the death knell for the great magazine known for it’s in depth journalism. I was wrong. Bravo RS.
