Borders, Quarters, and Tall Orders
So Heather’s sister went into labor yesterday afternoon. Heather grabbed the clan and headed to LA. This of’course left me with an available window of time to myself. Although my heart was drenched in sorrow that I could not see my family I usually make do. So I went too Borders and had a grand old time. Caught up on your blogs. Downloaded the latest edition of the Maccast and Mac Break Weekly. I grabbed my 6 favorite rags and spent time perusing them at my leisure. I thought. Good opportunity for a post about what rags I like to read. In the good old days of Typepad I could just have a nice pre-formatted linklist for you to ponder through. Not so with this grassroots WordPress thing. Here is what you should be reading…
1. HOMME+ – Because I am metro and proud.
2. Paste – Simple. Songcraft over fad.
3. MusicTech – If you have a Mac and record music on it, well, this is your rag.
4. Fast Company – Face it. Ministry is a business and these guys are at the top of the game. Don’t let your ideals blind you.
5. Mother Jones – Non-profit news rag that keeps it REAL.
6. Juxtapoz – Presents a gallery of underground artists who influence much of the fashion, graphics, and new art we see today.
So what “PRINT” pubs do you guys peruse?
It is actually quite nice to flip pages with your hands and not scroll on a mouse.

Hi Carlos

PASTE! Yes, I love that mag.
How about Relevant? I was surprised to not see that one in your list? Although it seems the combination of these others has you covered!
is that hommie?
Wired comes to my house and I read Relevant online. I read newspapers and AP stuff online all day so sometimes I like to grab the Wall Street Journal for a change.
hey los, i recently found your site and i love it. i just wanted to say that Paste is an awesome mag. keep on bloggin’
Modern Drummer, Drum!, Drum Business, Sports Section of Press Enterprise….and Starving Jesus….over and over and over.
Why the switch from Typepad?
Yeah, dude. Border is the place of choice for me too here in Tallahassee. Oh, by the way, I just put up my very first worship confessional! Check it out! I gave a shout-out to you for inspiration! Peace.

…jeez, I didn’t realize I read that many magazines…I’ll have to check out a few of the ones you mention.
“Face it. Ministry is a business and these guys are at the top of the game. Don’t let your ideals blind you.”
Man oh man. It’s like I love you AND I hate you Los.
The link says it all, Los:
