" This is the second-to-last last week that we&amp;#039;re giving away Esquire Weekly, our original iPad magazine featuring Esquire&amp;#039;s top writers and editors, like A.J. Jacobs, Charlie Pierce, Josh Ozersky, Tom Junod, Chris Jones, and Stephen Marche. It covers everything from politics, to culture, to food, and more \u2014 plus excellent longform original features and book excerpts. Until now, the Weekly was available only to iPad subscribers, so here&amp;#039;s your chance to check out a first-of-its-kind publication. A brief sample of what you&amp;#039;ll find in the latest issue:  Claudia Williams, on the absurdly elaborate grooming rituals of her father, baseball legend Ted Williams: &amp;quot;He loved Listerine\u2014only the original, harsh-tasting version. Someone once gave him a beautiful crystal liquor decanter. Dad was not much of a drinker, so he filled this lovely decanter with Listerine and kept it in the bathroom. Every morning he&amp;#039;d pour a crystal glass half full of Listerine to gargle. He threw his head back for a deep gargle lasting at least a minute. I think he may have even drunk a little, just to make sure he killed every last germ. After he finally spit it out and rinsed with water, he would look at himself in the mirror, smile, cock his head slightly, point at his reflection emphatically, and then wink. &amp;#039;You handsome son of a bitch,&amp;#039; he&amp;#039;d say.&amp;quot; A.J. Jacobs, on the problem of Friend requests from coworkers: &amp;quot;Open up your life, Paul. Let your coworkers cross that line. It&amp;#039;s a new, transparent world, and you need to stop worrying and embrace the new total lack of privacy. In the words of Nettie Reynolds: As they sing in Frozen, maybe the key is to just let it go.&amp;#039; Good point. When Princess Anna takes a selfie of herself twerking right up on Olaf&amp;#039;s carrot, does she care who sees it? She does not.&amp;quot; Ben Holden, on crying: &amp;quot;My father has never been afraid to let his emotions, and tears, flow. I cry less often, my tears traditionally reservoired for family emergencies, rather than soppy movie scenes or sentimental songs. Yet my lachrymose old man taught me, without meaning to, that it&amp;#039;s okay for a boy to cry. As the years slide by, and now that I&amp;#039;m a dad too, I appreciate that learning curve.&amp;quot; Josh Ozersky, on Anthony Bourdain: &amp;quot;He is exactly the same as he is on TV, which is basically why everyone likes him. Actually, he&amp;#039;s better, in that his conversation is smarter than on his TV shows, which dumb it down slightly. (His wife, by the way, is even cooler than he is: foxy and smart and a mixed martial arts expert. A real badass.)&amp;quot; Jazz legend Sonny Rollins, on everything: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m not about enjoyment. Enjoyment is a serpent with a lot of heads. I&amp;#039;m here to do something; I&amp;#039;m here to learn something. Make an impression on myself. Know for myself that I&amp;#039;m doing something better than I did yesterday. That&amp;#039;s my enjoyment. And I&amp;#039;m at an age where I can say that. Once I find a way to live properly, the dying will take care of itself.&amp;quot; PLUS: More. Way more.
