John,
I hope you won't be cruel and just show the jacket of the cover, instead of the cover behind the cover. That jacket is white. Better idea, Coach drive up here to Canada and after you help me shovel the snow, I may let you peak at centerfold gallery section....LOL

Oh, I know teasing the learned man.

poor coach. gloom...despair...mysery....OR just paint your mailbox another color than blue. haha

your "r" friend,
Rich

Hey Coach, if your's don't show up I'll rent you mine for about 100 bucks a month. The scary part is if your mailperson is a rod building nut too.

In some rare instances we had proof of theft of some magazines. By moving to the false cover instead of the sealed clear plastic bag, I figured that if somebody was curious about what was inside they could carry it into the can and read it there and then when they were done just flip it back into the mail flow. With the plastic bags they couldn't do that - once it was opened that was that.

Sounds far fetched, but this one of the very real reasons that I moved to the false cover.

Hey Coach, I got mine yesterday. I think I would tell the mailman to assume the position and check his pockets. I have to say it is a great magazine.
