My pops was furious over it. Talkin' about boycotting a magazine he's never read furious. And I totally understand why.<BR/><BR/>Hope that answers your q. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the comment.Franklinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16123713320564062147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-237384635246741001.post-34114961232627298322008-07-17T11:22:00.000-04:002008-07-17T11:22:00.000-04:00Hey man,Just wondering what, if anything, you have...Hey man,<BR/><BR/>Just wondering what, if anything, you have to say on the New Yorker cover.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
