Shiny, Adidas Track Suits and the Death of Camp: And Other Essays from Might Magazine

I cried the day I got my last issue of Might Magazine. Not because I had just bought a subcription and was out 19 bucks, but because I felt like I was loosing a friend. Might was smart, funny, and lovable. Buy this book and experience some of the Might genius.

its well worth 10 buck or whatever it is it costs. its good. its very good. its funny its interesting, and its unlike anything else. i never got away with anything better for my required "summer reading"

There are two types of people: those who have never heard of Might magazine, and those who think it was the most original and brilliant part of 90's media. Both types will find the essays in Shiny Adidas track suits to be brave, fresh, and most importantly, very funny.

As a reader of the late, lamented Might magazine, what could thrill me more than a collection of its greatest hits, so to speak (except perhaps a big, oversized compilation of the best of Spy magazine before it got really bad around 1992)? I thought I'd walk over to the campus library on my lunch hour today and check it out but the online card catalog doesn't list it. The suburban public library I use a lot does have a copy on the shelf, so I may drive up there after work tonight, even though I have a lot of math homework and I think I read some of the articles when they originally appeared in the magazine.
