From the June 2002 Maxim:

Nine Things Strom Thurmond Is Older Than:

• AM/FM radio
• Human flight
• The Panama Canal
• Wristwatches
• Tea bags
• Ice cream cones
• The World Series
• The states of Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska, and Hawaii
• Dick Clark

I used to read that mag, back in college. It was a fresh change of pace. Not about pretty-boys like GQ or Esquire, or closet homos like Men's Health or Men's Fitness. Here was a mag that would interest your average guy.

Unfortunately, the novelty wore off (for me) a lot quicker than the 4+ years it's been around now. They'll do anything to avoid writing an actual article. Never mind the ads — the content is all headlines, block quotes, photos, captions, lists ... anything to keep their readership from actually having to read more than a sentence at a time.
