August 1991 is the thickest issue we’ve had in quite a while, but those extra pages were not set aside for Teen Life topics — in fact, there isn’t even a fiction story! There are, however, Kim’s try-out for American Gladiators, Christina’s musings on long-distance boyfriend pros and cons, a What He Said on breast size, a quick trip over a bridge (or through a tunnel) to Brooklyn for On The Road, and more. Even the bummer feature — about polygamist Alex Joseph, his nine wives, and their many many children — is mostly a curiosity in its day, and only a bummer in retrospect. Not a bummer? Our latest episode, featuring original music cues that WILL get stuck in your heads. Or maybe not. Enjoy!
