Doesn't that require that most trifling of details, an address? Of some sort? Instead of "two blocks past the Safeway"? And is it possible to get this subscription overseas? Because if it's got something to say about Jordan that's not only worth reading but is also in English, then I'm all over that like white on bread. Except that I'm not currently in Jordan, and that's the problem you see... How exactly does one go about receiving a subscription in Jordan?

And I like the idea of the gift-subscrition, I'm still accepting Christmas presents if anyone is wondering ;) Oh, and your articles are very interesting, I've been reading your new column, but I missed your Amr Khaled aticle, will go dig for it in my magazine drawer! Keep up the great work. By the way, I tried answering 3 below in the spam question, and was disappointed to see that I failed the quiz... 1+1 does not always equal two ya Naseem, Lina el mfalsafeh says 3 and Lina the engineer says 10 ;p Nas I totally agree that JO is a superb magazine that has pushed the boundaries of investigative journalism and always has rich and serious content.

I recommended it to my cousin actually, wish I could subscribe from outside of Jordan.
