the one with the tear sheets

I'm a HUGE magazine reader. I buy them constantly and it's very hard for me to be in a check out line and NOT touch the magazines. I love the smell of the slick pages, I love the words, and most of all, I LOVE the ideas that looking at a magazine will bring. As I read/look/glance at a magazine, I'll dog fold the corner pages of things I love and want to look at again. Then, when it's time to throw the magazine out, although some never make it to that stage, (okay, not very many make it there) I'll go through and tear out my favorite pages for whatever reason and stack them in piles.

tear sheets is what I call them. I think I first learned that word when applying for Canon Professional Services. They used to make you submit tear sheets of your work in magazines before they would accept your application. Not sure if they still do, but I still find myself constantly piling up "tear sheets".

Here's my stack from photography pile.

LOVE me some Robert Downey Jr.
