Buying the New Yorker - Page 13

Now a TV ad. The History Channel is showing Lincoln, and gives us two spiffy taglines:
  1. He fought two wars. One was in his head.
  2. The Real Abe. Honest.
In other words: "He was some combination of nuts and gay. Tune in and find out. It's three hours long."

As I am using a month-old magazine, the premiere was last month, but I see that it will be shown again in March, and you can buy the DVD.

Lincoln DVD - $24.95

Running total - $4,401.03
