Nothing funny about feldspar

Sitting in a waiting area today, I had an opportunity to look at a couple of months-old magazines: Vogue for December and People for sometime in November. (I glanced at Seventeen and quickly put it back down.)

Wow. I am so out of touch with fashion and style (not too surprising in someone who can’t be bothered to get a haircut) and celebrities. I have no idea who three-quarters the people were, but boy do they get into some funny poses just to have their photo in a magazine!

The oddest bit was the fashion spread with the exotic chickens. The most ironic bit was the celeb who posed draped in diamonds and pearls, while exclaiming “Support my favorite charity for disadvantaged persons!” The most surreal bit was the multi-page ad in Vogue for Wal-Mart.

I certainly was entertained, but it was in the incredulous “my gosh, wouldja lookit that?” way. Not enough to want to actually subscribe, but then, I’m probably not Vogue’s nor People’s target audience. It does kinda make me wonder who is though.
