I still have the first book around here somewhere.

Best high school days were hitting a Subway with the free Onion paper before heading into work after school. Wednesdays, I think.

I went to the UW-Madison. Loved seeing the new issue getting dropped off, it was always one of my favorite reads. The entertainment reviews were usually really good as well, so it was the best of both worlds.

I remember having a CD that we listened to a ton as well.

Not a cover page but made me laugh harder than I should have:

I'll piggyback here and throw my favorite fake story/headline of all time from satire wire.

I was a good boy all year and was rewarded on Fathers Day with a subscription to theOnion. Though I haven't received my first print edition, the online edition has already helped me save some lives.

Parenting Experts Warn Babies Can Hydroplane In As Little As One Inch Of Water

"People assume their babies will cry when hydroplaning, but many stay silent the entire time they’re spinning, so you need to keep an eye on them. Turn your back for one second, and they could barrel out of control, spraying water and gaining speed until they slam into a tree. Then you’re potentially looking at thousands in repairs.” Lin added that beyond being vigilant, the best way to ensure a baby stayed safe near standing water was to keep the infant at speeds lower than 30 miles per hour.
