I’ve been a subscriber for years, so I got it already. It’s a definite must-read. The article is very short but full of “I Am America”-like sidenotes and pictures. There’s this great photo on the inside with Stephen getting burned at the stake a la Joan of Arc and there’s a little story in the beginning of the mag relaying the behind-the-scenes of the nine-hour photo shoot. CLASSIC!

I checked a few local stores in my area today and they all still have the July issue on the stands, but I’m pretty sure regular subscription holders have received theirs already (I saw one up for sale on eBay with the address label at the bottom). So, I’m guessing next week maybe it’ll be out.

Good job! Maybe they should all say Stephen Colber on them so that people will know what it’s all about…and come to love Stephen:)

Actually, it’s a parody of a classic Esquire cover, which itself was a parody:

I called my local Borders and they’re supposed to call me when it gets in. And they’ll hold a copy for me. I love Borders.

Oh hey, look, another pic of Stephen without pants! (Sorry, that was my inner 12-year-old attempting to surface.) That man has some nice legs, but his feet look kinda big. (No, don’t go there, brain, don’t go there, aaauuggggh, too late… Heh heh.

I looked for the magazine yesterday, but didn’t see it. Tuesday is often “magazine day” at bookstores, so I’ll try again today after work.

Hahaha. reCAPTCHA: platinum impious. Yes indeedy, how appropriate for a parody (is that the word I really want? I guess so…) of St. Sebastian.
