I can remember back in the 90s when I would get Newsweek Fedex'd to me every
two weeks and couldn't wait to pour over the ads and find some gem that...
oh wait a minute...that was MCW. 
Much better publication than Newsweek.
Thank you for the many years of service Brian and good luck in your future

On the heels of MCW ending comes the end of Newsweek, One by one they will
