I happened to be looking through old issues from 2021 and I noticed something. There were ads on about every other page. But in the latest issue dated January 12, 2026, there was only one page with what could be described as an ad, and it was probably comped since it was an ad for a charity that supplies birth control to impoverished nations. The 2021 issue had about 100 pages, while this week's issue had about 60 pages. Sad.

The Willie Nelson profile (Dec. 29 & Jan. 5) is worth reading.
