Rip & Read

What is the best way to read a magazine? It's simple - I just tear off the pages as I read them. That way I never lose my place when I'm reading a copy of GQ or Juggs.

I learned this trick from Penn Jillette. Apparently, he loves Moby Dick, and rather than use a bookmarker, he tears off a chapter when he is finished reading it. I wonder how many copies of Moby Dick he has purchased during his lifetime?

Nota Bene: If the magazine is stapled together, this method for reading periodicals quickly becomes a lot messier and needlessly complicated.
