It depends upon the magazine. After I made that remark I started to observe
my own magazine reading habits and realized that I have a different
methodology for each of my regular "reads" (At last count 37 magazines
regularly find their way into our household, some subscribed to, most
pass-throughs. I figure that on a monthly basis I read 73% more garbage
than an average 12 year old exposes itself to on television). The only
ones, in fact, that I read in the canonical manner are those I am
unfamiliar with, or don't peruse often enough to develop habits about.
