This did bring back a lot of 12 year old memories. Specifically, I had a brief, but intense, kleptomania phase at that age. My favorite thing to steal was porn mags. Back in '94 they used to have Hustler, Penthouse, Playboy, et al on the magazine rack at BN, not behind the counter as it subsequently became. My friends would always be the lookout (I guess I was the Michael character) while I stuffed magazines inside my jacket. We would usually look at them once then abandon them in the woods, because we were all too scared to keep porn mags in our bedroom. But holy shit did we learn a lot, sick shit that a 12 year old mind isn't quite equipped to process; it takes a real cynic to appreciate some of the odd bondage found in Hustler, not a naive tween. Oh Larry Flynt, what an education you gave me.

I never had the Klepto phase but the porn phase was true enough. We relied on my dad's stash and occasionally we'd find some of my uncles. When those two wells went dry... well, necessity is the mother of invention

God I wish I could get my hands on a copy of In the Bushes.

It's now the stuff of legend. Whenever my brother and I get together and have too many drinks the talk always shifts to In The Bushes. We proudly recount our venture in to the smut publication business.

You should bring it back. You could market it as "locally produced, craft smut". That kind of shit is hot right now.
