I get National Geographic and an occasional Smithsonian (if it's something that interests me)

I also get the national Philosophy journal (whose name escapes me right now...I'll edit if I can remember it).

The Journal of the Geological Society

And then I use institutional subscriptions for all sorts of journals (Gods Bless Athens!)

None, I have a library that's 5 minutes from my house, why pay for something I can get for free?

I read:

Scientific American
Science
Audio eXpress
National Geographic

I also checkout various car magazines for fun

At my work we get "Bicycle Retailer" which has all the latest industry news, and we also have subscriptions to about 4 different bike magazines.

I dont subscribe to any magazines anymore but I pilfer on a regulur basis:

National Geograpic: My dad gets them from a co-worker who tosses them after he reads them. Then I read them after my dad.

Aviation Weekly: My dad rarely reads them anymore, so I usually intercept it before he even sees it in the mailbox.

Marine Corps Times: My buddy in the reserves saves all of his for me to read when I visit on the weekends.
