No I wasn't playing in the grass clippings! Why do you ask? I am a vacuum repair technician and subject of the latest Upvoted podcast, "The Surprisingly Complex Life Of A Vacuum Repairman", here with a special Spring Cleaning edition. AMA! Emma Watson and her thumb. Interesting. Title: Re: Why does the US get a different version of TIME magazine? Post by: countryfree on April 04, 2015, 07:20:10 PM This is absolutely normal. Most magazines which sell in different countries tailor their content to each market. American magazine Car and Driver has a Spanish, a Chinese and a Middle East edition. All with localized contents and covers.
