My mom just cancelled her subscription to the New Yorker. She had subscribed since 1960 and had been a reader since she was about twelve (1942). Her mother had been a reader since it's inception and a subscriber since the close of ww2. The magazine was ever-present in their Lexington Ky. home. Mom would walk down weekly to the news store the day it arrived. The reason for cancellation she explained was that the quality had gone down hill, the cost too high ($69.95 annual) and it had become too thin. Plus the cartoons haven't been funny in years.
Based on the provisional F1 calendar released today, I may be in NJ on July 16.

It was common knowledge that she had pollack works that she had collaborated in. The pollack estate (it was said) was not cooperative in authenticating them in her lifetime. This could be one?
