[INTRO]
|
||||
|
||||
Well, it has been three months since the start.From here on out
|
||||
the group should be picking up a bit.Note the "D" instead of A for
|
||||
anarchy...making insignificant destructive devices is hardly anarchy
|
||||
and we know it.Enjoy.

VMS is an acronym for Virtual Memory System, and is made by Digital
|
||||
Equipment Corportaion as a way of allowing the basic computer management
|
||||
to be done by a user familiar with any of the systems it made.
|
||||
.... Blah .... The main purpose of this manual is to actually teach
|
||||
the average person something besides have a 20k file full of techno-talk
|
||||
and just stuff people release and people go "Gee, he sure knows a lot
|
||||
about this" without ever learning something. Ok, the first step of getting
|
||||
into a VMS is identifying one. First if you do not know of any VMS systems
|
||||
in your area I suggest Tone Loc or some other program. Anywayz
|
||||
the Username: prompt. The system will let you try three accounts
|
||||
and passwords. Here's a list of default user names and passwords that
|
||||
are common on most VMS systems
|
||||
|
||||

|

These are accounts with powerful access, So try these first
|
||||
because you will be able to do things that you can't with
|
||||
others, like create your own account.

Ok, when you put down a user account it will not tell you if it is valid
|
||||
or not. Now you should be in and see a $ prompt. I won't tell you what
|
||||
to do, because I would be wasting my time. VMS has some of the best
|
||||
help files available anywhere. Just type HELP at the $ prompt and you will
|
||||
get it on every command you would pretty much want to use.
|
||||
The system I got into was the University of Alaska computer network,
|
||||
divided between 3 cities here and hooked up to internet, If you would like
|
||||
some more info on this than there are hundreds of files for you to
|
||||
choose from, such as VAX news, or my file /<2F>ftershock #3 which is a capture
|
||||
on how some are run. Also if you do have an internet account there are
|
||||
several ftp sites for VMS stuff like amarna.gsfc.nasa.gov arizona.edu
|
||||
hydra.uwo.ca
|
||||
Have phun!

[Minor Deviancy] hehe
|

|
||||
|
||||
Molotov Cocktail
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This has got to be one of the most simple destruction devices
|
||||
to make,and also very effective.
|
||||
|
||||
Supplies:One bottle/Coke,Beer(16 ounce size)
|
||||
Gallon of Gas
|
||||
Quart of motor oil
|
||||
And one rag
|
||||
|
||||
Ok take your bottle andd pour in the oil,about 1/2 the way full.
|
||||
Next add about the same amount of gas.Soak your rag in some of
|
||||
the left over gas andd cram it in the top of the bottle.Now get
|
||||
a lighter,go to a buddies house light and throw.Have fun...
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<20>Easy M-80s<30>
|
||||
|
||||
Ok there have been tons of files written about M-80s etc. This one is
|
||||
damn simple and the supplies are right at hand.
|
||||
|
||||
Supplies Needed: Cardboard Tubing (toilet paper roll,Paper Towles)
|
||||
Toilet Paper (Packing Material)
|
||||
Clay/Putty (Packing Material)
|
||||
Gunpowder (Hmmm I wonder)
|
||||
Fuses (Duh)
|
||||
Wooden Dowl (Hardware/Lumber store)
|
||||
Hammer
|
||||
Cold Beer/Cigs
|
||||
|
||||
1st step take your tube and poke a hole inn the middle of it,just big
|
||||
enough for the fuse to fit.Now cover the hole with a peice of tape.Next
|
||||
putty up one end of the tube and let it set.Next wad up some toilet paper
|
||||
and stuff it in the tube.Now take your dowl and hammer and pake the
|
||||
fucker in,nice and tight.Put about a 1/4 of and inch of both clay and
|
||||
TP in the end.Now get ready to pack your ass off.Pour in some gunpowder
|
||||
and pack it down.Keep going until you reach the hole you punched.Remove
|
||||
the tape and insert your fuse.Now pack in some more gunpowder until you
|
||||
reach about 1/2 an inch from the top.Pack in about 1/4 of Toilet paper
|
||||
and then your clay to finish it off.Let it set for awile,so drink a brew
|
||||
and have a smoke.Ok now grab your lighter and your bomb.Goto your Ex-
|
||||
girlfriends house,and have fun.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course these are far more lethal then your standard M-80,so use your
|
||||
head so you can be around to see another day.

1 lantern battery
|

1 pack of Solar Ignitors(found at Hobby Shops)
|

Soldering Iron/Solder
|
||||
|
||||
First splice your wires eds,and soldder on the gator clips.Next take your
|
||||
solar ignitors(used for launching model rockets) and fasten it to your
|
||||
fuse.The part that burns on the ignitor is light brown and looks like a
|
||||
tear drop.Now connect your gator clips to the 2 little wires that come
|
||||
off of the ignitors.Next string out your wire to a safe hiding spot.Now
|
||||
touch one wire to the pos. the other to the neg. and KABBOM!I think they
|
||||
also sell wireless detonators for model rockets at hobby shops,so u might
|
||||
want to check those out.

Using ANSI.SYS To Make Nifty Little Trojans

|
||||
|
||||
Hey all.. This article will teach you to use ANSI.SYS (if you don't know what
|
||||
that is, read a book) and other MS-DOS tools to create nifty little trojan
|
||||
horse programs.. They are relitivly easy to slip into computers, and are un-
|
||||
scannable if you have any brains at all.. The only way that i know of to
|
||||
defeat these little fuckers is a program called pksfansi.com, which most
|
||||
people don't have.
|
||||
|
||||
First of all, i will describe some easy key re-definitions.. function keys
|
||||
are the easiest, here is a table of thier "extended function codes".. i'll
|
||||
explain in a bit..
|
||||
|
||||
_Key_ _Normal_ _Shift_ _Control_ _Alt_
|
||||
F1 0;59 0;84 0;94 0;104
|
||||
F2 0;60 0;85 0;95 0;105
|
||||
F3 0;61 0;86 0;96 0;106
|
||||
F4 0;62 0;87 0;97 0;107
|
||||
F5 0;63 0;88 0;98 0;108
|
||||
F6 0;64 0;89 0;99 0;109
|
||||
F7 0;65 0;90 0;100 0;110
|
||||
F8 0;66 0;91 0;101 0;111
|
||||
F9 0;67 0;92 0;102 0;112
|
||||
F10 0;68 0;93 0;103 0;113
|
||||
|
||||
to change one key to have the effect of another type this:
|
||||
|
||||
ESC[#;#p
|
||||
|
||||
where the first # is the ASCII vlaue of the key you wish to change,
|
||||
and the second # is the ASCII value of the new definition.. (unfortunatly)
|
||||
i don't have an ASCII key value chart, find one!) this is really useful
|
||||
for re-defining the N key to Y (you'll see what i mean in a minute)..
|
||||
|
||||
to re-define a keystroke to mean a string of characters (format c: comes to
|
||||
mind:) simply type:
|
||||
|
||||
ESC[#;"string"p
|
||||
|
||||
where, as before, # is the ASCII value of the key you wish to change.. (d
|
||||
would probably be the best, seeing as how the command "dir" is very commonly
|
||||
used)..
|
||||
|
||||
to make all this really useful if you end the ESC sequence wih ";13p" as
|
||||
opposed to "p", the string will self-execute.. (getting the picture here?)
|
||||
here is an example.. create a batch file called "lamer.bat" it should contain
|
||||
the following lines
|
||||
|
||||
@echo off
|
||||
ESC[#;#;13p (where the first # is the ASCII value for "n" and the second "y")
|
||||
ESC[#;"format C:";13p (where # is "d" or somthing..)
|
||||
|
||||
then put in somthing stupid like "type fuct.ans" so the stupid fuck thinks
|
||||
he ran a legit file.. then, the first time they hit "d", "format c: y/n?"
|
||||
appears onthier screen.. they freak out and hit "n", which has been
|
||||
re-defined to mean"y".. as they stare in shock at thier screen, thier computer
|
||||
is either wholly, or partially fucked big time...

Glen Roberts is one angry man. Concerned about the nature of privacy and personal
|
||||
information online, he has created a ton of newsletters and even runs a radio
|
||||
show centering around the proliferation of your personal data.
|
||||
In doing this, he makes himself a lightning rod for all sorts of madness. On the
|
||||
whole, quite an impressive pedigree. This collection is only a small part of all
|
||||
the files he's written; if I can find an easy way to get them all, I'll put them
|
||||
up. All intelligently written and worth a read.

DEATH OF THE BLUE BOX
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
This article will provide an historical review of the problem of ``Blue Box''
|
||||
telecommunications fraud. A blue box being the street name of one, of several
|
||||
electronic devices designed to allow the user to place free, long distance
|
||||
telephone calls. The information presented here consists of excerpts from the
|
||||
1970's National Wiretap Commission Hearings. In some cases, answers that had
|
||||
clarifying questions interspersed have been merged together without the
|
||||
extraneous questions for clarity and space reasons.
|
||||
|
||||
The excerpts from the following witnesses are used here: Neil Beller,
|
||||
Division Attorney, Central Telephone Company of Nevada; Michael Simon,
|
||||
Special Agent, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Las Vegas; and Karl
|
||||
Berolzheimer, Central Telephone Utilities and Utilities Corporation Counsel;
|
||||
William Caming, Attorney, American Telephone and Telegraph. Other individuals
|
||||
are members of the Commission.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: Mr. Beller, would you tell us how many investigations you were
|
||||
involved in and the approximate period of time?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Beller: From April 22, 1973, to October 15 of 1973, we gave approximately
|
||||
32 numbers to the FBI.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: . . . What does that indicate?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Beller: We had reason to believe individuals were using some sort of
|
||||
device on their telephones.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: Would you state on what basis you had that belief?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Beller: We have a computer print out, a copy of which I have here, which
|
||||
was for selected numbers. These are toll-free network numbers, and studying
|
||||
these numbers and ascertaining where the called number was, we had reason to
|
||||
believe that the person was using a foreign device.
|
||||
|
||||
The reason for that is that some of the numbers that were called were
|
||||
numbers, for example, to New York information, or the information office at
|
||||
TWA. And it is not logical for a person to talk to TWA for 20 minutes or a
|
||||
half-hour.
|
||||
|
||||
Based upon that, we would put either a brush recorder or at a later date we
|
||||
subsequently acquired another device, which emitted a tape such as this. And
|
||||
from that we were able to ascertain that the person was, in fact, using a
|
||||
foreign device on the telephone line.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: Agent Simon, how many cases ultimately resulted from the
|
||||
information provided you?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: The resulting investigative cases? We had five cases that were
|
||||
brought to indictment and subsequent prosecution. We had seven other cases
|
||||
that, because of the United States Attorney's position, prosecution was
|
||||
declined. And I will give you one specific example, where an individual made
|
||||
a blue box which was very unsophisticated in comparison to what Mr. Caming
|
||||
showed us. This box was approximately two-and-a-half feet long by two feet
|
||||
wide and about 18 inches tall.
|
||||
|
||||
This man made it at home from various electronic parts, and his wife used the
|
||||
device to call her mother once a week in Miami, Florida.
|
||||
|
||||
You have to understand, of course, that we did conduct extensive
|
||||
investigation to obtain all the facts we could before we presented them to
|
||||
the United States Attorney.
|
||||
|
||||
There were other telephone numbers referred to us by Mr. Beller where we
|
||||
subsequently obtained affidavits in support of a search warrant and
|
||||
subsequent search warrant were executed and we had what is known as a ``dry
|
||||
hole.'' The device was not there.
|
||||
|
||||
As we progressed with these investigations we became more sophisticated. We
|
||||
learn with each one.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: If we could concentrate on the successful investigations, I
|
||||
believe that information came to you as to the FBI from a number of different
|
||||
sources, indicating that various defendants we using electronic toll fraud
|
||||
devices. I wonder if I you can state the different ways in which this
|
||||
information came to your attention.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: There were three different ways. Mr. Beller would furnish us with
|
||||
a computer tape printout, and after the issuance of a federal grand jury
|
||||
subpoena directed to Mr. Beller or his designee, he would furnish us with the
|
||||
name and address of the individual.
|
||||
|
||||
We would then conduct a physical surveillance to determine if that person
|
||||
actually existed. It is always possible to have aliases. We did run into a
|
||||
number of instances where an individual who was subscribing to the telephone
|
||||
company service was not, in fact, the name that was on that card.
|
||||
|
||||
So once we established this, and after obtaining a search warrant, we would
|
||||
notify Mr. Beller.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr Beller, in turn, would notify one of the technicians who would tell us
|
||||
that were was, in fact, a device being utilized on that telephone.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: The second thing we had was confidential sources of information.
|
||||
[these were FBI informants who would provide information that electronic toll
|
||||
fraud was occurring just the same as they'd advise of a gambling offense].
|
||||
And Mr. Moore was first brought to our attention by a confidential source who
|
||||
furnished the information to an agent of the FBI, Mr. J. Lawrence Sullivan.
|
||||
Mr. Moore did not have any of these devices even though he was selling them
|
||||
in Las Vegas. We were able to pick up Michael Raymond Tullis who was
|
||||
subsequently tried and convicted for fraud by wire based on the confidential
|
||||
source information.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: So you have computer printout information and informant
|
||||
information. Was there any other?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: Yes. On Frank Joseph Masterana -- he had been the subject of a
|
||||
number of legal Title III wire interceptions by not only the Law Vegas
|
||||
Division, but other Divisions of the FBI. He was at one time in Macon,
|
||||
Georgia, for sentencing on one of the gambling cases, at which time
|
||||
confidential source information was received that he was using in Macon,
|
||||
Georgia, at that time, a blue box to call Las Vegas.
|
||||
|
||||
So bearing in mind and having additional information, two of our Las Vegas
|
||||
FBI agents, in August of '73, observed Masterana in an open pay telephone
|
||||
booth making a telephone call with what appeared to be a blue box. But they
|
||||
couldn't get close enough because he was quite surveillance conscious.
|
||||
|
||||
Based up on that and subsequent investigations, we were able to assume that
|
||||
he was using a blue box, but we couldn't put it all together factually.
|
||||
|
||||
In conjunction with advice furnished by Strike Force Attorney James Buff, who
|
||||
is assigned to the Las Vegas & California, Strike Force Office, we together
|
||||
with the telephone company, worked out a program whereby if we were able to
|
||||
come up with the various telephones that Masterana was using to make these
|
||||
alleged calls, Mr. Duff would give us authority to make an immediate arrest,
|
||||
providing the telephone company could verify the fact that Masterana was
|
||||
using an electronic device or a blue box.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: These were pay telephone booths. What was required was to send
|
||||
agents out in the field and survey Masterana on a continuous basis to find
|
||||
out what telephone exchanges he was using.
|
||||
|
||||
After several days' work we were able to determine he was using three or four
|
||||
different exchanges. He was very careful. He would use an open pay phone in a
|
||||
drug store, for example, that was inside of the drug store, where he could
|
||||
view the exterior entrances into the drug store, watching for agents. And
|
||||
because of the size of the city of Las Vegas, it didn't take him very long to
|
||||
find out who we were. So it was difficult to surveil him.
|
||||
|
||||
[Description of methods by phone company to verify use of toll fraud devices
|
||||
ommitted]
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: Mr. Beller, once you had verified to your own satisfaction,
|
||||
using the electronic equipment, that, in fact, electronic toll fraud was
|
||||
committed on the lines, what did you do?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Beller: Concurrent with the subpoena from the FBI, we'd typically put on
|
||||
the recorder that particular individual's line. At that point in time, Mr.
|
||||
Simon would hand carry over a subpoena for any and all information that we
|
||||
would have relating to toll fraud. He would ask for the subscriber
|
||||
information card which denotes the name of the particular person who has the
|
||||
line, any other information that we might have, which would then be the paper
|
||||
tape.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr Feldman: Agent Simon, I wonder if you could indicate what your next step
|
||||
was once you had received the information Mr. Beller has described.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: Once we received the information, again our investigative process
|
||||
was to verify the fact and physically observe the home or apartment to see
|
||||
that we had everything correct and based upon that information, I would take
|
||||
the information furnished by Mr. Beller on the 800 number, the toll free
|
||||
number, and I would call it that day or the next day to verify the fact that
|
||||
it was a toll free number to a particular place. In some instances that
|
||||
number was no longer actually working, but the person utilizing the blue box
|
||||
would get into the toll free telephone line system and use that number to get
|
||||
into it.
|
||||
|
||||
Then I would take that information and prepare an affidavit in support of a
|
||||
search warrant. This affidavit was then brought before the U.S. Magistrate
|
||||
who reviewed it, and through the normal process a search warrant was issued.
|
||||
|
||||
Then I would return to my office and contact Mr. Beller and tell him we had a
|
||||
search warrant at that time.
|
||||
|
||||
The next step was that whomever Mr. Beller would designate -- one of their
|
||||
electronic experts -- would call me and say they had information that this
|
||||
particular time an electronic device was being used on this telephone.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: Was that information gathered by continued use of the TTS-176
|
||||
(pen register)?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Beller: Yes.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: This may have taken two days to prepare. Then there would be
|
||||
agents in the field and I'd notify them by radio. They had the search
|
||||
warrant, plus inventories in their possession, and they'd go in the house
|
||||
with a lawful search warrant and execute it.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: And this was the same general procedure used in each of the
|
||||
cases?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: With the exception of the Masterana case. In the Masterana case
|
||||
the Central Telephone Company was able to put on the device after we had
|
||||
surveyed the phone he had used. If we could tell what exchange Masterana was
|
||||
using, the telephone company would put on their TTS-176 and be able within
|
||||
ten minutes to tell us whether he was using an electronic device, the
|
||||
possession of which was not in violation of the law so he had to be using it.
|
||||
And as a result, we arrested Masterana in a telephone booth specifically on
|
||||
October 15, 1973, in a public pay telephone booth, at which time he had two
|
||||
blue boxes in his possession, the one he was using, together with voluminous
|
||||
gambling records, and $18,836.53 was confiscated.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: In the other four cases, when you executed the search warrant,
|
||||
who did you find in the premises and did you find a blue box in each house?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: Yes, in each case. In the Judith Dinah Douglas case, two blue
|
||||
boxes were found when the search warrant was executed. As a result of this,
|
||||
she, Douglas, was tried by stipulation of facts and found guilty. She was
|
||||
sentenced to serve five years in custody of the Attorney General of the
|
||||
United States on July 2, 1974, provided she'd submit to psychiatric
|
||||
examination, and come back within 90 days for resentencing.
|
||||
|
||||
Subsequently, her case was appealed to the Ninth Circuit on two separate
|
||||
occasions. The Ninth Circuit upheld the conviction. She has not to my
|
||||
knowledge begun serving her sentence, nor is she though with her legal
|
||||
recourse. Apparently she is going to appeal again.
|
||||
|
||||
On the Michael Raymond Tullis case, upon execution of the search warrants
|
||||
based upon confidential source information, we did find one device in his
|
||||
apartment, and this case when to jury trial.
|
||||
|
||||
He subsequently appeared on March 15, 1974, with counsel in Las Vegas and was
|
||||
sentenced to five years in the custody of the Attorney General, with the
|
||||
first 90 days to be served in custody, and the balance of the sentence was
|
||||
suspended and he was placed on probation for the additional period.
|
||||
|
||||
In the Frank Victor Scaramuzzo case, with a valid search warrant we recovered
|
||||
a blue box and went to trial. He was found guilty on March 28, 1974, by the
|
||||
jury. On May 10, 1974, the United States District Judge in Las Vegas
|
||||
suspended the sentence and placed him on three years' probation.
|
||||
|
||||
At this time, he also ordered that Moore make restitution to the Central
|
||||
Telephone Company.
|
||||
|
||||
He filed a notice of appeal to the Ninth Circuit and the Ninth Circuit upheld
|
||||
the conviction.
|
||||
|
||||
The last matter was David Louis Goldberg and H. Jordan Rabstein. In this
|
||||
particular matter, in the fall of 1973, we had a court authorized wire
|
||||
interception on Mr. Goldberg's residence phones. During that period of time,
|
||||
while we were monitoring and recording, we found on a repetitive basis that
|
||||
Rabstein would attempt to use the blue box or the electronic device to
|
||||
circumvent the telephone toll call recording equipment. It was a
|
||||
sophisticated type of blue box, slightly larger than the one Mr. Caming
|
||||
presented.
|
||||
|
||||
We heard him on numerous occasions make mistakes and because of the slowness
|
||||
with which he had to manipulate the call numbers, it apparently would not
|
||||
work successfully. Once in a while he'd complete a call and be completely
|
||||
elated. Mr. Goldberg, on the other hand, was much more efficient.
|
||||
|
||||
Subsequently, Mr. Beller came to us with computer tape printouts, and we went
|
||||
through our normal process of obtaining an affidavit in support of a search
|
||||
warrant and subsequently a search warrant and executing the same, at which
|
||||
time we found the blue box in his residence, next to his night stand, which
|
||||
he had access to -- his wife would, too, but he was the one who normally used
|
||||
it. Also also we were able to seize three illegal, unregistered firearms that
|
||||
he had in the apartment.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Goldberg, subsequently, together with Mr. Rabstein and with counsel, were
|
||||
charged with violation of the Title 18 Sections 1084 and 1343 of the United
|
||||
States Code. And they appeared and entered a plea of guilty.
|
||||
|
||||
They were subsequently sentenced on August 18, 1974, at which time Goldberg
|
||||
was sentenced to one year in custody of the Attorney General of the United
|
||||
States for violation of Section 1343, and Goldberg was placed on one year
|
||||
probation for violation of Title 18, Section 1084, both sentences to run
|
||||
consecutively.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: Agent Simon, you have already indicated that Section 1343 does
|
||||
not specifically prohibit the possession of blue boxes.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: To my knowledge, the manufacture or possession.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: And in all cases, expect the Masterana case, I assume, you
|
||||
arrived there sometime after the call had been concluded?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: It was circumstantial.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr Feldman: That is my point. The evidence on which convictions were
|
||||
subsequently obtained was circumstantial.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: That is right.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Feldman: I wonder if you can describe the type of circumstantial evidence
|
||||
that was used in these cases?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: We had the computer print out and the TTS-176 tapes -- not only
|
||||
that was previously given to us but that day, of the time, the Central
|
||||
Telephone Company had the TTS-176 installed on that phone or particular
|
||||
phones. That became part of the evidence we presented. Plus the fact that
|
||||
these people were the only ones in the apartment when the search warrant was
|
||||
executed helped us, of course.
|
||||
|
||||
In one instance, in the Scaramuzzo case, he called his attorney in the
|
||||
presence of Special Agent John Kinsinger -- and I am going to paraphrase what
|
||||
Scaramuzzo said. He said, ``They caught me with one of them things,'' or
|
||||
``They caught me with one of them boxes and I was using it.''
|
||||
|
||||
What he was saying is he had just set it down when the agents entered the
|
||||
room. And he set it down to answer the door and the phone was off the hook.
|
||||
We were able to introduce this and it was very strong
|
||||
|
||||
Mr Feldman: And that was the basis on which convictions were obtained?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: That is correct.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Berolzheimer: I want to make clear that Central Telephone Company,
|
||||
although it operates in nine states, has only had experience with this
|
||||
problem is Las Vegas. We only have experience in one area. You will notice
|
||||
from the material we have submitted to the Commission it all occurred during
|
||||
a relatively short period of time in 1973. It deals with one community, Las
|
||||
Vegas, which has relatively compact and flat geography with wide streets and
|
||||
low buildings.
|
||||
|
||||
It also happens to be the center of legalized gambling which also attracts a
|
||||
certain amount of illegal gambling and transmission of gambling information.
|
||||
|
||||
So we have in Las Vegas a combination of unique circumstances, in including
|
||||
its geography, its size, the interest of both the FBI and the prosecuting
|
||||
agency; I think also the existence of a grand jury and the ability of the FBI
|
||||
to obtain search warrants.
|
||||
|
||||
We also had cooperation between the telephone company and the FBI, as has
|
||||
been described by the witnesses, with surveillance and radio control, so that
|
||||
they could swoop in and get the blue box.
|
||||
|
||||
I don't know, because we don't have the experience, but I certainly can
|
||||
conceive it would be most difficult to obtain that kind of evidence in a
|
||||
major metropolitan area. I just don't think you could coordinate it that
|
||||
well. Your ease of movement wouldn't be the same. Your distances would be
|
||||
greater; you'd have different kinds of courts.
|
||||
|
||||
And I'm not convinced, although we were successful -- that is the United
|
||||
States Attorney was successful -- in securing convictions in these six cases,
|
||||
without positive identification of the user, I don't know that the evidence
|
||||
would be convincing in every court. It had not become a critical issue in the
|
||||
cases tried in Las Vegas, but I can conceive of a court taking the position
|
||||
that without voice identification of the user a conviction could not be
|
||||
obtained.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Westin: . . . Do you believe these techniques would not be feasible in a
|
||||
large metropolitan center or under conditions that vary from the Las Vegas
|
||||
one?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Simon: I think all of the comments were very valid. Because of the fact
|
||||
that I spent ten years in Chicago, I can only express an opinion, but I can't
|
||||
conceive of this working in an apartment complex, a high rise, third floor
|
||||
walk up. I think it would be almost impossible. If the technology was
|
||||
available we might be able to proceed, but I do not think we could enter the
|
||||
residence within from one to five minutes after the telephone company says
|
||||
``The electronic device is being used right know by an unknown party in
|
||||
Apartment no. so and so.''
|
||||
|
||||
I think it would be almost impossible to have the physical surveillance work
|
||||
because of the largeness of the metropolitan area. I think it would be almost
|
||||
impossible to surmount. I just don't know how it could be done.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr Hodson: . . . does Bell also use the system we have just heard about?
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Caming: First, I might like to say, Mr. Hudson, I am in general agreement
|
||||
with everything said by Mr. Simon and the gentlemen from Central Telephone.
|
||||
In fact, we agree completely. And we have found in a number of cases where
|
||||
we, too, have been fortunate because of proximity and circumstances in the
|
||||
thousand or so cases we have been involved in in the last decade, if we could
|
||||
catch them using it or in circumstances very close to that, as Mr. Simon so
|
||||
ably described in one or two of the cases, then we either would obtain a plea
|
||||
of guilty or they would be found guilty.
|
||||
|
||||
But we have found in the majority of our cases, and those that are the
|
||||
greatest problem to the industry as a whole, that we have not been able to
|
||||
have such a happy admixture of factual circumstances. And let me give you
|
||||
three cases just as an example of what we have been through.
|
||||
|
||||
Problems of identification have been very great. We had one recently that we
|
||||
received invaluable help from law enforcement authorities on. And I might
|
||||
generally say that over the years, in many areas, not not only electronic
|
||||
fraud, the cooperation of the Bureau has been consistently outstanding. And I
|
||||
think it is worthy to express what is a personal feeling but a tribute to
|
||||
their industry and dedication. As far as one case, it is a case that might be
|
||||
denominated -- the Bremson Case -- only because he was one of the original
|
||||
architects. Since time is of the essence, I will quickly synopsis it. It
|
||||
involved the general cooperation of 14 Bell Telephone companies and two
|
||||
General Telephone companies between December 1971 and September 1972.
|
||||
|
||||
I will just name the cities that were principal cities: Minneapolis,
|
||||
Cleveland, Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, Santa Monica, Atlanta, Washington,
|
||||
DC, Chicago, Detroit, Des Monies, Memphis, St Paul, Miami, New York, Denver,
|
||||
Knoxville, New Orleans, Milwaukee -- among others.
|
||||
|
||||
We finally resulted in gathering evidence -- as you can see, this was a very
|
||||
widespread conspiracy of manufacturers, nationwide distributors, and users
|
||||
such as businessmen. The purpose was to not only very substantially
|
||||
manufacture and distribute blue boxes, but to use them in an extensive number
|
||||
of businesses where you might have offices populated by a large number of
|
||||
people, and where it was virtually impossible to maintain surveillance of any
|
||||
intimate character.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, these people used them at homes scattered throughout a large area.
|
||||
|
||||
It finally resulted in 20 arrests, 19 indictments, at least 14 convictions --
|
||||
a number of investigations are still going on.
|
||||
|
||||
In another case, to show you how cogent the problem is, financier Bernard
|
||||
Kornfeld was involved. He apparently had a home with I understand was huge,
|
||||
something like 90-odd rooms, in the California area. There was a large number
|
||||
of people, both male and female, constantly in and out of there. There were
|
||||
indications from various sources of some use by somebody of blue boxes in
|
||||
some parts of this rather cavernous place.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, it resulted in apprehension by chance of one of the secretaries
|
||||
using the blue box, and she was arrested on January 28 of 1975. The question
|
||||
of identification could not have been made except for the very limited voice
|
||||
recording.
|
||||
|
||||
It ultimately resulted in the seizure of two boxes. And even with all that,
|
||||
it took six months more to develop the case, to indict Mr. Kornfled on June
|
||||
5, 1975, by a federal grand jury in Los Angeles, some six months later, for
|
||||
making 344 calls to Europe over a period of time.
|
||||
|
||||
The witnesses at offered a solution to the problem. The following is the
|
||||
statute they proposed:
|
||||
|
||||
``Fraudulent Communication Devices.<R> ``(a) Whoever willfully<R> ``(1) sends
|
||||
through the mail, or sends or carries in interstate or foreign commerce,
|
||||
or<R> ``(2) imports or otherwise brings into the United States or any
|
||||
territory or possession under its control or jurisdiction, or<R> ``(3) makes,
|
||||
assembles or possesses, or<R> ``(4) sells, gives or otherwise transfers to
|
||||
another, or<R> ``(5) offers, or places in any newspaper, magazine, handbill
|
||||
or other publication any advertisement, to sell, give or otherwise transfer
|
||||
to another, or<R> ``(6) purchases or in any other manner obtains, receives or
|
||||
conceals,<R> ``any electronic, mechanical or other device, instrument,
|
||||
apparatus or equipment or plans, specifications, instructions or other
|
||||
information for making, assembling or using any such device, instrument,
|
||||
apparatus or other equipment, or publishing any such plans, specifications,
|
||||
instructions or other information,<R> ``with intent to use it, or knowing or
|
||||
having reason to know that it is intended to be used or that its design
|
||||
renders it primarily useful, to obtain any communication service from a
|
||||
communication common carrier,<R> ``by rearranging, tampering with, or making
|
||||
any unauthorized connection, whether physically, electronically,
|
||||
acoustically, inductively, or otherwise to, any telephone instrument,
|
||||

|
||||
payment, in whole or in part, of the lawful charge for such communication
|
||||
service, or to from any such communication common carrier or from any lawful
|
||||
authority the existence or place of origin or termination of any
|
||||

|
||||
reason to know that such rearrangement, tampering or connection existed at
|
||||
the time of use,<R> ``shall be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned not
|
||||
more than five years or both.
|
||||
|
||||
The first amendment aspects of this statute were brought up, but due to a
|
||||
lack of time were not addressed in any detail. The whole problem of this type
|
||||
of fraud and statutes to deal with it became moot when industry step in and
|
||||
plugged the technological holes. In a February 1990 article in SECURITY
|
||||
MANAGEMENT in discussing the problem, aptly noted that ``[i]t took a series
|
||||
of innovative technological developments by the Bell System to defeat them.''
|
||||
|
||||
Today, the attempts to solve the unauthorized access of computers and current
|
||||
day telecommunication fraud parallel the blue box situation. They will be
|
||||
equally ineffective.
|
||||
|
||||
Even a statutory change to reduce the burden on law enforcement agencies
|
||||
would have still necessitated an on going investigation, prosecution and
|
||||
incarceration program sufficient to deal with many thousands of individuals
|
||||
using toll fraud devices. Nonetheless, there still exists today a periodical
|
||||
based in blue box technology and mentality. It is called 2600.

NO PROTECTION FOR U.S. CITIZENS
|
||||
|
||||
This article is reprinted from Full Disclosure. Copyright (c) 1986
|
||||
Capitol Information Association. All rights reserved. Permission is hereby
|
||||
granted to reprint this article providing this message is included in its
|

|
||||
|
||||
The Minimization Procedure required by the Foreign Intelligence
|
||||
Surveillance Act (50 U.S.C. 1801) offers no protection to United States
|
||||
Citizens.
|
||||
|
||||
The U.S. government's secret spy court authorized under the Foreign
|
||||
Intelligence Surveillance Act is used by intelligence agencies (CIA, FBI,
|
||||
NSA, etc) to obtain authorization to electronically spy on foreign powers and
|
||||
their agents within the United States.
|
||||
|
||||
The Act requires a minimization procedure to be followed with respect to
|
||||
information obtained on U.S. persons in the course of the surveillance. When
|
||||
a law enforcement agency seeks to electronically surveil a suspected criminal
|
||||
they are required to demonstrate probable cause that a crime has been or will
|
||||
be committed in order to obtain a search warrant. However, for an
|
||||
intelligence agency to obtain a warrant from the United States Foreign
|
||||
Intelligence Court (USFISC), they only need to demonstrate probable cause
|
||||
that the target is a foreign power or an agent of a foreign power. That is
|
||||
to obtain a warrant in a normal Federal or State Court, there must be
|
||||
evidence of a crime, but to obtain a warrant in the USFISC there merely needs
|
||||
to be an indication that the target might be associated with a certain class
|
||||
of people.
|
||||
|
||||
To "protect" U.S. persons a minimization procedure is employed with
|
||||
respect to the disclosure of information obtained during the surveillance of
|
||||
foreign powers and their agents. Full Disclosure has obtained a copy of a
|
||||
FBI warrant application filed with the USFISC which details the actual
|
||||
minimization procedure. According to the application's Exhibit A which
|
||||
details the procedure:
|
||||
|
||||
These procedures apply to the acquisition,
|
||||
retention, and dissemination of nonpublicly
|
||||
available communications and other information
|
||||
concerning unconsenting United States persons
|
||||
that is collected in the course of electronic
|
||||
surveillance directed at the telephone
|
||||
communications of this agent of a foreign power
|
||||
and oral communications of this agent of a
|
||||
foreign power...
|
||||
|
||||
When the FBI begins the surveillance, they will verify that the telephone
|
||||
communications lines being intercepted at the residence and business are in
|
||||
fact the telephone lines of the agent of the foreign power.
|
||||
|
||||
The FBI agents who monitor the communications are responsible for
|
||||
determining if the information "intercepted must be minimized". Further, the
|
||||
communications of United States persons (this includes discussions of U.S.
|
||||
persons by foreign powers) will be subject to "continuing analysis to
|
||||
establish categories of communications that are not pertinent to the
|
||||
authorized purpose of the surveillance". The categories are to be
|
||||
established after a reasonable period of monitoring the communications of the
|
||||
foreign power. No information was provided which would indicate that
|
||||
information categorized as not pertinent would be stored, processed or
|
||||
disseminated any differently than pertinent information.
|
||||
|
||||
Access to information obtained regarding United States persons is to be
|
||||
under strict controls. Use of the information is restricted to FBI
|
||||
supervisory, investigative, and clerical personnel who have a need to know
|
||||
the information for "foreign intelligence or law enforcement" purposes. Any
|
||||
information which contains evidence of a criminal offense is retained until a
|
||||
decision is rendered by prosecutive officials, and if the United States
|
||||
person is prosecuted the information will be retained until the end of the
|
||||
prosecution.
|
||||
|
||||
To further "protect" United States persons information regarding them
|
||||
won't be disseminated without their consent, unless the information is
|
||||
"evidence of a crime which has been, is being, or is about to be committed".
|
||||
Such information can be disseminated to "Federal, state, local, or foreign
|
||||
officials or agencies with law enforcement responsibility for the crime".
|
||||
Information regarding U.S. persons which is not evidence of a crime, but
|
||||
which reasonably appears to be foreign intelligence information can be
|
||||
disseminated in a "manner which identifies United States persons only for
|
||||
authorized foreign intelligence, foreign counterintelligence,
|
||||
countersabotage, and international terrorism, or law enforcement purposes".
|
||||
|
||||
So far, there is little minimization (or protection) of information
|
||||
regarding United States persons which was obtained in a manner inconsistant
|
||||
with the Fourth Amendment warrant requirements. The last sentence of the
|
||||
Exhibit appears to set forth the only protection afforded the United States
|
||||
person:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Any information acquired from electronic
|
||||
surveillance of the target of a foreign power
|
||||
which is disseminated for law enforcement
|
||||
purposes shall be accompanied by a statement
|
||||
that such information or any information
|
||||
derived therefrom, may only be used in a
|
||||
criminal proceeding with the advance
|
||||
authorization of the Attorney General.
|
||||
|
||||
Prior to the passage of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, George
|
||||
Hasen, Chairman of the Committee on Civil Rights wrote a letter to Senator
|
||||
Inouye outlining this very problem. The text of his letter follows:
|
||||
|
||||
Dear Senator Inouye: We understand that your Committee has received from
|
||||
the Committee on Federal Legislation of the Association of the Bar of the
|
||||
City of New York its critique of the provisions of the proposed Foreign
|
||||
Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1977 (S. 1506). Our Committee on Civil
|
||||
Rights associates itself, generally, with that critique, but we disagree with
|
||||
it in one important respect.
|
||||
|
||||
Both the Committee on Federal Legislation and the Committee on Civil
|
||||
Rights are concerned because the standards imposed by S. 1566 for obtaining a
|
||||
warrant to engage in electronic surveillance do not, in some instances,
|
||||
require a probable cause showing of criminal conduct. It is the considered
|
||||
judgment of the Committee on Civil Rights that a CRIMINAL STANDARD IS
|
||||
ESSENTIAL to the bill and, unlike the Committee on Federal Legislation, we
|
||||
believe that unless S. 1566 is amended to provide such a standard, it should
|
||||
not be enacted.
|
||||
|
||||
We think that is important to remember why this legislation is needed.
|
||||
Clearly it is not needed to empower government agencies to carry on
|
||||
electronic surveillance. Rather, the need is for legislation which will
|
||||
limit and control electronic surveillance and the consequent government
|
||||
intrusion into the private lives of American Citizens. The findings of
|
||||
Congressional committees which over the last several years have investigated
|
||||
intelligence agency abuses HAVE MADE THIS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR. Based on such
|
||||
findings, the Church Committee specifically concluded that no American should
|
||||
"be targeted for electronic surveillance except upon a judicial finding of
|
||||
probable criminal activity" and, further, that targeting "an American for
|
||||
electronic surveillance in the absence of probable cause to believe he might
|
||||
commit a crime, is unwise and unnecessary." (Intelligence Activities and the
|
||||
Rights of Americans, Final Report of the Select Committee to Study
|
||||
Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities, U.S. Senate,
|
||||
94th Cong., 2nd Sess. (1976), at 325.)
|
||||
|
||||
Further the Supreme Court has warned of the danger to First Amendment
|
||||
rights inherent in national security surveillances:
|
||||
|
||||
"National security cases . . . often reflect a convergence of First and
|
||||
Fourth Amendment values not present in cases of `ordinary' crime. Though the
|
||||
investigative duty of the executive may be stronger in such cases, so also is
|
||||
there greater jeopardy to constitutionally protected speech. `Historically
|
||||
the struggle for freedom of speech and press in England was bound up with the
|
||||
issue of the scope of the search and seizure power,' Marcus v. Search
|
||||
Warrant, 367 U.S. 717, 724 (1961). History abundantly documents the tendency
|
||||
of Government -- however benevolent and benign its motives -- to view with
|
||||
suspicion those who most fervently dispute it policies. Fourth Amendment
|
||||
protections become the more necessary when the targets of official
|
||||
surveillance may be those suspected of unorthodoxy in their political
|
||||
beliefs. The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government
|
||||
attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect `domestic
|
||||
security.' Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest,
|
||||
the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent.'
|
||||
United States v. United States District Court, 407 U.S. 297, 313 (1971).
|
||||
|
||||
Notwithstanding these warnings, S. 1566 would permit the electronic
|
||||
surveillance of United States citizens and other persons for 90 days or more
|
||||
without any showing that they are engaged in, or likely to be engaged in,
|
||||
criminal activity. Section 2521(b)(2)(B)(iv)/1 would go even further and
|
||||
would permit the electronic surveillance of individuals who "knowingly" aid
|
||||
and abet persons whose conduct may be entirely lawful.
|
||||
|
||||
Surely, the burden of justifying such a departure from basic Fourth
|
||||
Amendment principles -- if indeed it can be justified -- ought to be on the
|
||||
proponents of such provisions. And, surely, they ought to be able to specify
|
||||
precisely those lawful activities of American citizens which are so vital to
|
||||
the safety of the nation that the Government must be permitted to
|
||||
surreptitiously gather information about them and, worse, to do so by such an
|
||||
intrusive method as electronic surveillance. In our opinion, however, two
|
||||
Attorneys General have been unable to sustain that burden, and the few
|
||||
examples are simply unconvincing. In our view, the necessity of a
|
||||
non-criminal standard has not been demonstrated, and it should, therefore, be
|
||||
rejected.
|
||||
|
||||
There is another and perhaps even more important reason why such a
|
||||
standard should not be accepted. If, in this first legislative attempt to
|
||||
control searches in national security matters, Congress authorizes the most
|
||||
intrusive and least precise of techniques -- electronic surveillance -- where
|
||||
no crime is involved, what justification will there be for barring in similar
|
||||
situations more specific methods such as surreptitious entry and mail
|
||||
openings? And if a non-criminal standard is necessary to protect the
|
||||
national security where the connection with a foreign power can be as tenuous
|
||||
as that provided in S. 1566, what arguments can be made against a similar
|
||||
standard in domestic situations where the perceived danger to national
|
||||
security may be just as great?
|
||||
|
||||
S. 1566 represents in some respects an advance over earlier proposals,
|
||||
but in out view, IF A NON-CRIMINAL STANDARD IS RETAINED, ENACTMENT OF THIS
|
||||
LEGISLATION WILL LEGITIMIZE THE VERY CONDUCT IT OUGHT TO PROHIBIT AND WILL
|
||||
CONSTITUTE A SERIOUS BLOW TO CIVIL LIBERTIES.
|
||||
|
||||
If permitted by your procedures, it would be appreciated if this letter
|
||||
were made a part of the record of the hearings of your Committee on this
|
||||
bill. [emphassis added]
|
||||
|

The Great American Dog Trial Vendetta!
|
||||
|
||||
By P. Remington Adams
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
Several years ago, one Clayton Longacre was present at the scene of a heinous
|
||||
crime that was to result in a notorious jury trial known to the bureaucrats
|
||||
in the 9-1 District Courthouse in Kalamazoo County, Michigan, as the ``Dog
|
||||
Trial Vendetta''.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, this might require a bit of explanation for the uninitiated. You see,
|
||||
any time someone is charged with a violation of animal control ordinances our
|
||||
public servants call it a ``dog trial''; when someone pleads ``not guilty''
|
||||
and asks for a jury trial it becomes a ``vendetta''. I concur that vendetta
|
||||
is the appropriate term; however, I assert that it is the judicial work group
|
||||
(clerks, officers, prosecutor, and judge) and not the defendant which turns
|
||||
the process into a vendetta.
|
||||
|
||||
The judicial work group is less interested in the innocence or guilt of the
|
||||
defendant than it is in seeing that the case is disposed of quickly and
|
||||
efficiently. To expedite this, the defendant is expected to take the citation
|
||||
``to the teller window downstairs'' and pay the fine without question. That
|
||||
is the quickest and most profitable way to dispose of these cases.
|
||||
|
||||
The Honorable Judge ``Jessie'' James Presiding:
|
||||
|
||||
The dog vendetta came to trial in the spring of 1989 with Judge Donald James,
|
||||
one of the great mediocrities of our time, presiding. I have often had
|
||||
occasion to wonder whether Judge James is related to the infamous Jessie
|
||||
James. Judge James sometimes engages in unarmed robbery, attempting to steal
|
||||
justice away from those who choose not to hire an attorney and proceed
|
||||
instead as pro se litigants.
|
||||
|
||||
There is a bureaucratic mentality that pervades the 9-1 Courthouse, hovering
|
||||
in the air like the stench around a slaughter house. This mentality is
|
||||
characterized by a lack of social conscience, which results in an emphasis on
|
||||
cost efficiency and expedience, rather than on justice.
|
||||
|
||||
The criminal justice system in Kalamazoo has acquired an assembly line
|
||||
mentality with respect to civil infractions and misdemeanors. On this
|
||||
assembly line, the attitude is that only a trouble maker would have the
|
||||
audacity to plead ``Not Guilty''; only a radical, embarking on a personal
|
||||
vendetta, would request a jury trial. These people are obviously attempting
|
||||
to harass the court and deprive it of cost efficiency. Anyone who won't plea
|
||||
bargain is considered an unreasonable person or a lunatic.
|
||||
|
||||
What Is A Reasonable Person?
|
||||
|
||||
According to this demented sense of justice, which I refer to as ``slaughter
|
||||
house logic'', a reasonable person is expected to simply pay the fine or plea
|
||||
bargain. Rational, reasonable Americans are not supposed to be concerned with
|
||||
liberty, justice, the constitutionality of laws, innocence and guilt, nor
|
||||
even the preservation of their own good names. A reasonable person is
|
||||
expected to assess the situation in the short term and follow the course of
|
||||
least immediate expense. The fines are low enough that it would be more
|
||||
expensive to hire an attorney.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Unreasonable people are herded into the courtroom like sheep, along with
|
||||
dozens of other people awaiting arraignments and court hearings. Typically
|
||||
the court has a session in the morning and another in the afternoon. As many
|
||||
as a hundred cases may be scheduled collectively by means of group
|
||||
appointments. (For example, sixty people may all be given 9 a.m.
|
||||
appointments). Consequently people may sit for hours, all day or longer, in
|
||||
order to eventually stand in front of a judge for five minutes or so.
|
||||
|
||||
Obviously, if you consider your time to be worth even the minimum wage, it is
|
||||
cheaper to pay the fine or plea bargain than it is to submit to hearings,
|
||||
more hearing, legal fees and the whole trial process. The system is designed
|
||||
to encourage guilty pleas in exchange for allowing the defendant to get on
|
||||
with the more important things in their lives in the shortest time possible.
|
||||
Justice Or Cost Efficiency: Which is The Reasonable Expectation
|
||||
|
||||
According to ``slaughter house logic'', people who place value on innocence,
|
||||
liberty, legal justice, and the constitution, people who are opposed to the
|
||||
inhumanity and injustice of assembly line justice, are considered
|
||||
unreasonable, irrational people. These priorities suggest to the proponents
|
||||
of assembly line justice a possible emotional or mental imbalance, because it
|
||||
is more efficient, expedient, and cost effective for everyone concerned, if
|
||||
the defendant presents a quick and inexpensive guilty plea. The court makes
|
||||
its money, the lawyers make their money, and the defendant saves a great deal
|
||||
in time, grief, and legal fees.
|
||||
|
||||
Trouble makers, radicals, and other irrational people who insist that the
|
||||
system render justice and protect civil liberties are seen as harassing the
|
||||
court by wasting time and money that could better be used to rapidly and
|
||||
profitably process the cases of more reasonable people. Since the radicals
|
||||
don't hire attorneys they are also seen as harassing the bar association and
|
||||
stealing food from the mouths of attorney's little children.
|
||||
|
||||
If not for the basic apathy of the average U.S. citizen, this system could
|
||||
not exist. A few hours spent in a court room will demonstrate that the
|
||||
innocent frequently plead guilty because it's easier. None-the-less,
|
||||
prosecutors are often frustrated by the naive inability of these people to
|
||||
lie properly about their guilt for the court record. In order to obtain an
|
||||
acceptable admission of guilt for the court record, the innocent often have
|
||||
to be taken out of court and coached by a prosecutor or their attorney in
|
||||
order to commit perjury properly.
|
||||
|
||||
The District Judge's Interest In The Matter
|
||||
|
||||
Judge James mentioned during the proceedings that it costs at least $500 per
|
||||
day to operate the court. Judges must maintain an awareness of cost. If their
|
||||
court isn't cost effective the state may decide that the inefficient judge is
|
||||
not earning his or her $90,000 per year salary. In addition, in Michigan, a
|
||||
small percentage of the each fine levied goes into the judicial pension fund.
|
||||
The more expediently the cases are handled, the more money is sent to the
|
||||
fund.
|
||||
|
||||
Origins of the Dog Trial Vendetta
|
||||
|
||||
May 1987. County law enforcement officials have been keeping a house located
|
||||
on Glendale Street in Kalamazoo under observation for days. What heinous
|
||||
crime against the state is in progress there? What infraction of enormous
|
||||
social consequence has come to the attention of the county?
|
||||
|
||||
Two female springer spaniels are alleged to be harbored in that house. These
|
||||
scalawags are without current (1987) Kalamazoo County dog licenses!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The dynamic growth industry that is Kalamazoo law enforcement is about to
|
||||
launch a fervent attempt to bring justice to the vicious criminal who is
|
||||
harboring the spaniels. He is clearly a major threat to the public welfare
|
||||
and to the criminal justice process itself!
|
||||
|
||||
This man not only harbors illegal dogs but, a matter of much greater
|
||||
importance, he will have the audacity to go on record in district court to
|
||||
plead ``Not Guilty''; he will have the temerity to refuse to plea bargain;
|
||||
and he will have the gall to demand an inexpedient and costly jury trial!
|
||||
This trouble maker is clearly intent on engaging in a full blown personal
|
||||
vendetta.
|
||||
|
||||
The Real Culprit was not Apprehended and is Still at Large
|
||||
|
||||
What the County Animal Control Officers didn't know was that I was living at
|
||||
the house at Glendale Street. Clayton owned the house, and several other
|
||||
properties as well. He did stay at the house occasionally, but he was in the
|
||||
process of relocating to Washington to attend law school near his fiancee.
|
||||
|
||||
I was house sitting for Clayton and running a tree service, using his house
|
||||
as an office. Since he was moving, Clayton had to find homes for Snoopy and
|
||||
Sammy, his AKC registered springer spaniels. I paid $100 for the dogs in
|
||||
April, but the dogs hadn't gotten their state required licenses yet. I had
|
||||
frequently asked Snoopy and Sammy to get their licenses, but they just never
|
||||
got around to it.
|
||||
|
||||
I had noticed the PRK animal control officers sneaking around the house
|
||||
earlier in the week (May 13, 1987) so I took the dogs to the company garage,
|
||||
which is in a quarry out in the country. I was also careful not to park in
|
||||
the driveway or in front of the house where my car would be associated with
|
||||
the occupants of the house and I could be traced by my plate numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
I should have gotten the ticket, but I am too intelligent to answer the door
|
||||
when the brown shirted, fascist, animal control officers come visiting. The
|
||||
code says that, even if your dogs have gotten their licenses, if you don't
|
||||
have them ready to show to the animal control officer at the time you are
|
||||
asked to, you can still be ticketed for ``failure to show.'' Now, my mother
|
||||
didn't raise a fool. My dogs had not yet gotten their licenses. I was,
|
||||
consequently, not going to answer my door to talk to the dog gestapo. As far
|
||||
as I'm concerned, the ``animal control officers'' are public welfare bums
|
||||
with badges--social parasites on the dole--whose sole purposes are to raise
|
||||
revenue and to bother citizens.
|
||||
|
||||
I don't approve of preventive law. I think it would be better to require dog
|
||||
owners to have tags and shots for their dogs. If a dog actually bites
|
||||
someone, is running loose, or damages property, and if the dog doesn't have
|
||||
tags and/or shots, then it becomes appropriate to pick up the dog and cite
|
||||
the owner for a real crime with a real victim and real injury or damage.
|
||||
Unfortunately, this kind of rational law would raise fewer revenues and
|
||||
provide fewer high paying jobs for the friends, cousins, and political
|
||||
lackeys of the bureaucrats and politicians of Kalamazoo county.
|
||||
|
||||
The Scene of the Crime
|
||||
|
||||
On Saturday, May 16, 1987, Clayton pulled into the driveway at the house on
|
||||
Glendale Street and a county animal control officer pulled in behind him,
|
||||
blocking his way out. As a highly trained and skilled law enforcement
|
||||
observer, the animal control officer concluded that because Clayton was in
|
||||
the driveway he must be a resident, and he must, therefore, be the owner of
|
||||
the dogs (who were no longer in residence).
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton requested that the officer move her truck, explaining that he was
|
||||
late for an appointment.
|
||||
|
||||
``I'd like to talk to you about the dogs.'' the officer replied.
|
||||
|
||||
``What dogs?'' Clayton asked.
|
||||
|
||||
``We can do this the easy way or the hard way.'' the officer said.
|
||||
|
||||
``Do it any way you like, just move the truck so I can get out of here.''
|
||||
Clayton responded.
|
||||
|
||||
Acting on instincts honed by years of professional justice experience, the
|
||||
officer determined that Clayton was the mastermind behind this heinous plot
|
||||
to harbor dogs without a license. It wasn't really necessary to verify that
|
||||
there were indeed dogs in the back yard. Nor was it necessary to knock on the
|
||||
door, or to talk to the neighbors, to see who actually lived there. Why
|
||||
bother to check with the post office or consult the phone book about who was
|
||||
living at that address? After all, the crime had been solved by trained
|
||||
observation combined with keen deductive reasoning and logic.
|
||||
|
||||
The man was obviously guilty. When a highly trained animal control officer
|
||||
asked him a question he had refused to talk, and then had asked her to get
|
||||
out of his way because she was blocking his driveway. Consequently Clayton
|
||||
was traced through his vehicle plates, and received through the mail a
|
||||
citation for ``failure to show a license upon request.''
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton presented a copy of the bill of sale to the prosecutor to prove that
|
||||
he had sold the dogs. The prosecutor assured Clayton that the charges would
|
||||
be dropped and that it would be unnecessary for him to attend the pre-trial
|
||||
conference. As it happened the charges were not dropped that day. The
|
||||
prosecutor misplaced the bill of sale. A bench warrant was issued against
|
||||
Clayton Longacre for ``failure to appear.''
|
||||
|
||||
In February, 1989, Clayton returned to Michigan to clear up some personal
|
||||
matters and to finish his senior thesis for Kalamazoo College. While he was
|
||||
here, he was set up to attend an informal, late afternoon meeting with the
|
||||
township police regarding a zoning dispute. When he appeared for the meeting,
|
||||
Clayton was arrested on the bench warrant for failure to appear. The
|
||||
arresting officer requested a $200 cash bond, and Clayton's ability to obtain
|
||||
bail was hampered by the arrival of the end of the work day. Fortunately,
|
||||
Clayton was able to reach, at home, a sympathetic judge who ordered his
|
||||
release on personal recognizance after only 30 minutes in jail.
|
||||
|
||||
Prosecutorial and Judicial Indiscretions
|
||||
|
||||
The case had been assigned to a new prosecutor. Clayton refused to plea
|
||||
bargain, complaining that the prosecutor's office had lost the sales receipt
|
||||
and other exculpatory evidence. Judge James, who was once allegedly voted the
|
||||
worst judge in Kalamazoo County by the Kalamazoo Trial Lawyers Association,
|
||||
showed no interest in the lost evidence.
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton, who was unemployed, filed a motion for court appointed counsel.
|
||||
Judge James stated that he doubted that the state would seek incarceration
|
||||
upon conviction, and on that grounds he denied Clayton counsel.(1)
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton also requested that the court advise him of his rights and assist him
|
||||
in defending himself (called a ``motion for rights sua sponte''). Judge James
|
||||
also denied this request. Judge James makes a practice of denying counsel and
|
||||
then holding the defendant to the standards of an attorney.
|
||||
|
||||
The inexperienced new prosecutor took a dislike to Clayton and refused to
|
||||
dismiss the case. Had a more fair minded judge, such as Judge Long, been on
|
||||
the bench the prosecutor would have had no alternative, but Judge James
|
||||
dislikes pro se litigants--so Clayton Longacre was going to trial.
|
||||
|
||||
The Infamous Dog Trial Begins
|
||||
|
||||
In April 1989 the ``dog trial'' of Clayton Longacre began with the
|
||||
questioning of the jurors (voire dire). Two or three of the jurors were
|
||||
removed for prejudice when Clayton asked:
|
||||
|
||||
``I wouldn't be here today if I hadn't done something wrong, would I?'' Most
|
||||
of the jurors agreed initially. A few adamantly and tenaciously maintained
|
||||
that opinion after being coached by Judge James. The Judge informed them that
|
||||
their point of view was prejudicial and incorrect, and explained to them the
|
||||
concept of innocent until proven guilty. He then asked them again, and some
|
||||
of these honest folk could not be convinced to lie about their feelings in
|
||||
order to stay on the jury.
|
||||
|
||||
Another juror was asked whether, given conflicting testimony from an animal
|
||||
control officer and a citizen, all other things being equal, he would give
|
||||
preference to the officer. He agreed that he would--because his dad was an
|
||||
animal control officer. When coached by Judge James and asked the question
|
||||
again he maintained his original answer.
|
||||
|
||||
Now the ``voire dire'' got down to the heart of the case:
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Prosecutor: ``Would anybody here believe that a police officer is being
|
||||
unreasonable if he pulls a driver over and asks to see his license,
|
||||
registration, and proof of insurance?''
|
||||
|
||||
The jury agreed that this was reasonable.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Longacre: ``If you were sitting on a park bench in the middle of a park
|
||||
and an officer walked up to you and asked to see your drivers license,
|
||||
vehicle registration, and proof of insurance, would you consider that
|
||||
reasonable?''
|
||||
|
||||
The jurors were primarily bewildered by the question--but they would not
|
||||
forget it, and it was to set the tone for the ensuing trial.
|
||||
|
||||
The Defense Surprises the Prosecutorial Work Group
|
||||
|
||||
The prosecutor and his accomplice, Judge Donald James, apparently assumed
|
||||
that Clayton was going to argue that the dog laws are unconstitutional or
|
||||
unfair. Clayton's defense was, however, much simpler than that. He had a
|
||||
three point defense:
|
||||
|
||||
1) He didn't live at Glendale Street. 2) He didn't own the dogs at the house
|
||||
on Glendale Street. 3) There were no dogs at the house on Glendale street
|
||||
on the day of the incident.
|
||||
|
||||
Since the crime of which Clayton is accused is ``failure to show a license
|
||||
upon request'' it is interesting to note that the prosecution neglected to
|
||||
ask the officer whether she had ever actually asked to see a license. She
|
||||
hadn't.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the prosecutor had rested his case, Clayton moved for a directed verdict
|
||||
because of the prosecutor's failure to present a prima facie case. He had no
|
||||
evidence or testimony that the officer ever requested to see a license. Judge
|
||||
James denied his motion on the grounds that the lack of evidence was a
|
||||
question of fact for the jury to decide. (One wonders how a jury is to decide
|
||||
facts when none are in evidence.) As the defenses first witness I testified
|
||||
that I was living in the house at Glendale in May of 1987 and that I owned
|
||||
the two dogs that were there in May of 1987. I was asked whether the two dogs
|
||||
that were there on May 16, 1987, were mine. I testified that there were no
|
||||
dogs there on May 16, 1987. When I was asked whether I was harboring dogs
|
||||
without a license I invoked my right to remain silent under the 5th and 14th
|
||||
Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
|
||||
|
||||
Judge James Loses His Composure
|
||||
|
||||
``Oh my God! Get the jury out of here!'' exclaimed Judge James. Both the
|
||||
prosecutor and the judge were already flustered by how well the defense was
|
||||
doing, but this was too much!
|
||||
|
||||
``Did you know that this man was going to take the fifth amendment?''
|
||||
demanded the judge.
|
||||
|
||||
``Not for sure. He told me he might, but I didn't know for sure.'' replied
|
||||
the defendant.
|
||||
|
||||
``You can't do this! If you were a lawyer, I'd have your license!'' exclaimed
|
||||
the judge.
|
||||
|
||||
The judge and the prosecutor conferred. They were afraid that the jury might
|
||||
be unduly influenced. The prosecutor asked for a contempt citation and
|
||||
special instructions to the jury to ignore the statement. The judge declared
|
||||
a mistrial and sanctioned the defendant $192 in court costs.
|
||||
|
||||
I was upset by the rude and prejudicial manner in which this inept judge was
|
||||
pushing Clayton around, so I told Clayton to notify the court that I was
|
||||
prepared to waive my right to silence.
|
||||
|
||||
Meanwhile, Judge James gave a long diatribe about how my outrageous
|
||||
invocation of my constitutional rights, coupled with Claytons objections to
|
||||
being denied due process and to the loss of the exculpatory evidence by the
|
||||
prosecutor, had irrevocably prejudiced the jury. At the end of the judges
|
||||
rantings, Clayton informed the court that I was now willing to waive my right
|
||||
to silence.
|
||||
|
||||
James turned red in the face, his lips thinned, his voice raised. He didn't
|
||||
know what to do. His basis for alleging a mistrial had just been stolen away
|
||||
from him. How could the jury be prejudiced if the trial resumed and I
|
||||
answered the question? The prosecutor brought up a concern about double
|
||||
jeopardy.
|
||||
|
||||
After a short break to recover himself, Judge James stated that if either
|
||||
Clayton or I said a single word he would throw us both in jail for contempt.
|
||||
While Clayton and I were both angered by the constant verbal abuse and
|
||||
prejudicial behavior of the court we managed to just smile at him and walk
|
||||
out.
|
||||
|
||||
The Judge rescheduled a new trial for June, 1989. Then the clerk tried to get
|
||||
Clayton to to pay the fine or make arrangements to pay it, to no avail, of
|
||||
course. Previously the judge had refused to make the prosecutor provide
|
||||
evidence that he had ordered at a motion hearing,because a written order was
|
||||
never entered. Clayton threw the judges own words back at him:
|
||||
|
||||
``You stated the court lives and dies by its written orders...write it up so
|
||||
I can appeal it. You have no lawful authority to assess me court costs.''
|
||||
|
||||
After we had calmed down we realized that we had won. James had no authority
|
||||
to assess us court costs, and we were fairly certain that the double jeopardy
|
||||
clause to the 5th amendment applied to our case. The double jeopardy clause
|
||||
provides that no one shall be
|
||||
|
||||
``subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or
|
||||
limb....''
|
||||
|
||||
The Double Jeopardy Clause to the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution
|
||||
|
||||
The trial does not have to be complete for the double jeopardy clause to be
|
||||
in effect. In a jury trial the clause may attach from the moment the jury is
|
||||
empaneled and sworn.(2) In a bench trial it may attach the moment the first
|
||||
witness has been sworn.(3)
|
||||
|
||||
When a trial is stopped by a motion of the prosecution or of the court, the
|
||||
Perez test(4) is applied to determine whether double jeopardy applies to bar
|
||||
further prosecution. If the case is stopped for ``manifest necessity''(for
|
||||
instance the death of a juror or the judge) there can be a retrial.
|
||||
|
||||
When there is reason to believe that the prosecution or the court is using
|
||||
the superior resources of the state to harass the defendant or to achieve a
|
||||
tactical advantage, double jeopardy then attaches.(5)
|
||||
|
||||
A Case of Prosecutorial Hostility
|
||||
|
||||
After declaring a mistrial, the judge suggested that the prosecutor dismiss
|
||||
the case via ``nolle prosequi''(that is, as a matter of discretion with no
|
||||
explanation). The prosecutor, however, was determined to go for a new trial.
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton and I decided to go on the ``war path''. We began sending letters of
|
||||
complaint to the attorney grievance committee and to the judicial tenure
|
||||
commission. We wrote press releases. We prepared a ``Motion to Disqualify
|
||||
Judge James''. We prepared an appeal, which we planned to file as soon as
|
||||
James entered his mistrial order. The prosecutor and Judge James capitulated;
|
||||
the prosecutor's dismissal was signed and entered the same day that we began
|
||||
filing motions.
|
||||
|
||||
Victory!
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton Longacre had thwarted the state! He had out fought the nefarious
|
||||
interests of the collectivist ``new class''(6) and had bested the judicial
|
||||
work group. To this day, Judge James has not entered a written order to
|
||||
assess Clayton costs and fees for the mistrial.
|
||||
|
||||
Clayton is currently looking for a civil rights attorney to file suit for
|
||||
abuse of process. Most attorneys aren't interested in these cases because
|
||||
the damages are not significant enough to make their efforts profitable. If
|
||||
necessary, Clayton will file pro se. Why? Because there is always the
|
||||
possibility of a substantial jury award and, in any case, our public servants
|
||||
need a reminder. It will cost them a lot of money and may effect their
|
||||
insurance rates adversely.
|
||||
|
||||
In this situation a pro se litigant simply can't lose. It is very inexpensive
|
||||
to file a civil suit. If he wins, Clayton gets compensation and damages. If
|
||||
he loses, the animal control people will have incurred large legal fees and a
|
||||
great deal of work in answering depositions and interrogatories--thus
|
||||
learning an expensive lesson.
|
||||
|
||||
Who says you can't beat city hall? Clayton and I do it all the time.
|
||||
There is nothing quite like issuing subpoenas to bureaucrats and forcing
|
||||
them to answer your questions at a deposition hearing. It's fun sitting
|
||||
in a position of superior authority and watching them squirm. Try
|
||||
it, you'll like it. It can even be profitable on occasion. Is this
|
||||
a great country or what? Enjoy!

THERE'S GOTTA BE A BETTER WAY
|
||||
|
||||
By Glen Roberts
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
This issue of Full Disclosure is devoted to the current attempts at solving
|
||||
the problems of computer security through prosecution of computer crimes.
|
||||
|
||||
It would appear from the recent activities of the federal government that one
|
||||
of its major attacks is trying to spread fear throughout the ``hacker''
|
||||
community. Such a concept will certainly work in a limited number of cases.
|
||||
However, as the reading of any local newspaper will show, numerous crimes are
|
||||
committed everyday, criminals are not stopped by the fear of punishment.
|
||||
|
||||
The other aspect of the government's fear program appears directed towards
|
||||
those who have no criminal involvement, who wish to participate in First
|
||||
Amendment activities by high-technology. Some have been subjected to
|
||||
punishment without even the allegation of criminal behavior. See related
|
||||
article titled ``Dr. Ripco Seizure.'' The result is a fear by some of
|
||||
participating in the First Amendment, not a legitimate goal of law
|
||||
enforcement or the government.
|
||||
|
||||
Reprinted in this issue is a copy a sentencing memorandum filed by the
|
||||
Government last year in a computer crime case. It portrays the defendants as
|
||||
particularly ``powerful by'' means of the information they stole. Missing is
|
||||
the fact that the lax nature of computer security is what actually gave the
|
||||
defendants power. If the state of computer security been reasonable secure,
|
||||
the information obtained by defendants (whether legally or not) would have
|
||||
granted them no extraordinary power.
|
||||
|
||||
A primary reason the government seeks incarceration as part of the sentence
|
||||
is not because of the criminal nature of the defendants activities, but
|
||||
rather to send ``the message that the hackers around the country need to
|
||||
hear.'' Unfortunately, the death penalty has failed to stop murder.
|
||||
|
||||
The government appears to be more concerned with the free flow of information
|
||||
than the fact that criminal acts were committed; ``[f]rom the start,
|
||||
information was stolen and, by definition no longer safeguarded.'' Later
|
||||
concluding, ``in essence, stolen information equalled power, and by that
|
||||
definition, all three defendants were becoming frighteningly powerful.''
|
||||
|
||||
The concept that information is the crux of the problem is also highlighted
|
||||
by William Cook, Assistant United States Attorney, Chicago, Illinois in an
|
||||
article he wrote for the Spring 1990, COMMUNICATOR<M^>*1. He noted that
|
||||
hackers can ``easily keep up with industry technical developments.'' He also
|
||||
perceives that hackers are able to easily use prior information to form
|
||||
attack plans on new computers.
|
||||
|
||||
As the Soviet Union moves toward a more open society, the United States is
|
||||
just as surely closing its windows of communication. The United States has
|
||||
always been the technological forefront in the world because of the ease of
|
||||
information flow. Researchers, corporations and individuals have always been
|
||||
free to group together and exchange information as desired. This has greatly
|
||||
increased the ability of the United States to make technological advances
|
||||
quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
One can easily see the results by looking at the space programs administered
|
||||
by NASA. They have resulted in many inventions finding their way quickly into
|
||||
our economy, including rapid improvements in our exports. A few of the things
|
||||
that have resulted from NASA's openness with U.S. industry have included: new
|
||||
applications such as teflon coatings (frying pans and such), inhalation
|
||||
therapy for lung ailments, teflon coatings for asbestos fiber made into
|
||||
special apparel for rescue in fires, and many more too numerous to mention.
|
||||
|
||||
The phenomenon of information exchange is exactly what William Cook describes
|
||||
in his article. However, because the ``hackers'' have apparently built or
|
||||
made use of a highly efficient communications medium they have been able to
|
||||
advance as quick as corporations which have failed to take devote resources
|
||||
to advance their informational security. The corporate security departments
|
||||
should make use of the same hacker communication techniques to work on their
|
||||
problems and see their use of the ``frightening power'' of information lead
|
||||
to secure computer systems.
|
||||
|
||||
The Communications Fraud Control Association (CFCA) in its published FRAUD
|
||||
ALERT of June 21, 1990, is concerned that the government may not be able to
|
||||
stop computer crime, if several organizations promising funding for legal
|
||||
defense follow through. At risk is the review of several federal and state
|
||||
statutes for compliance with constitutional guidelines. To date, even with
|
||||
the presence of one such rights organization, the EFF<M^><MI^>*2, in at least
|
||||
two federal cases, such a review has thus far been thwarted.
|
||||
|
||||
In short, we see the CFCA's position as allowing only two choices: 1) violate
|
||||
the rights of hackers in order to obtain convictions, or 2) the world will be
|
||||
runover by a rampage of hacking activities.
|
||||
|
||||
Two decades ago, the same problems, but with slightly different technology
|
||||
was showing its ugly face. The related article in this issue ``The Death of
|
||||
the Blue Box'' overviews the legal difficulties the government had in
|
||||
prosecuting those stealing telecommunications services.
|
||||
|
||||
Ultimately, the law enforcement efforts to stop blue boxers were by all
|
||||
practical means of measurement a complete failure. Only a handful of
|
||||
thousands of offenses were prosecuted. Those prosecutions proved to have no
|
||||
deterrent effect on others. Just as we will see that the few recent computer
|
||||
hacker prosecutions will do nothing to stem the flow of current day hacking
|
||||
and telecommunications fraud.
|
||||
|
||||
Prosecution of crimes throught to be victimless does little more than to
|
||||
strengthen the resolve to not get caught in a very evoluntionary way. The
|
||||
solution today is the same as it was in the blue box solution. An upgrading
|
||||
of the technology will prevent the simplistic attacks that are so common. The
|
||||
first step towards a technological upgrade requires an increase in the
|
||||
communication between those experiencing compromise of their data.
|
||||
|
||||
The CFCA's COMMUNICATOR claims in the February 1990 issue of Security
|
||||
Management to be the only regular journal on telecommunications crime.
|
||||
Apparently overlooking, CUD, 2600 and the non defunct Phrack. That is a small
|
||||
start towards the free flow of information needed by those who are looking
|
||||
for security solutions for their companies.

Surveillance Frequency Selection
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
This article will over techniques of selecting frequency for surveillance
|
||||
use. This information pertains to lawful surveillance by State and Local
|
||||
government agencies. Federal agencies are not bound by FCC regulations. Those
|
||||
not intending to use the technical surveillance information in a criminal
|
||||
prosecutor might be more apt to hide their operation by using a more obscure
|
||||
frequency.
|
||||
|
||||
The information herein has been derived from ``A Guide For Establishing
|
||||
Electronic Surveillance Operations,'' distributed by Audio Intelligence
|
||||
Devices, 1400 NW 62d St, Ft Lauderdale, Florida 33309. Phone: (305) 776-5000,
|
||||
Fax: (305) 776-5005 at the NATIA conference.
|
||||
|
||||
The starting point is the examination of FCC regulations that relate to
|
||||
surveillance radio operation. FCC Regulation 90.19(g)(3):
|
||||
|
||||
``A licensee may use, without special approval from the Commission, any
|
||||
mobile service frequency between 40 and 952 MHz listed in Subpart B of this
|
||||
part of the Rules, for communications in connection with physical
|
||||
surveillance, stakeouts, raids and other such activities. Such use shall be
|
||||
on a secondary basis to the operations of licensees regularly authorized on
|
||||
the assigned frequencies. The maximum output power that may be used for such
|
||||
communications is 2 watts. Transmitters operating under this provision of the
|
||||
Rules, shall be exempted from the station identification requirements, of
|
||||
Section 90.425. Use of Public Safety frequencies not listed in paragraph (d)
|
||||
of this section is conditional on the approval of the coordinator
|
||||
corresponding to each frequency...''
|
||||
|
||||
Three suggestions on selecting a frequency to use within these specifications
|
||||
are provided:
|
||||
|
||||
1) Contacting the Association of Public Communication Officers (APCO)
|
||||
frequency coordinator and reviewing the options for your area,
|
||||
|
||||
2) Using a mobile police scanner to search through the VHF band and make a
|
||||
list of the used and unused frequencies in your area. Any of the unused ones
|
||||
that meet the FCC requirements would be usable, or
|
||||
|
||||
3) Deriving a list of unused frequency from a police frequency directory and
|
||||
then using a scanner to make sure they are in fact open.
|
||||
|
||||
After selection of a frequency or frequencies, a surveillance user has to
|
||||
remain aware that it could be assigned to someone in the future requiring
|
||||
reselection of a surveillance frequency.
|
||||
|
||||
Surveillance transmitters used for tracking purposes (vehicle, person, etc)
|
||||
have a different set of requirements to fulfil. In addition to power output
|
||||
requirements, there are stricter frequency requirements and the transmitters
|
||||
must have a ``positive means'' to limit the transmission time to no more than
|
||||
10 days. The use of battery life is an allowable method to control
|
||||
transmission time.
|
||||
|
||||
Tracking transmitters are required to operate in the following frequency
|
||||
ranges:
|
||||
|
||||
150.999 - 151.490 MHz<R>
|
||||
153.740 - 154.445 MHz<R>
|
||||
154.635 - 155.195 MHz<R>
|
||||
155.415 - 156.250 MHz<R>
|
||||
158.715 - 159.465 MHz
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
for the following services:

||||

NEW FBI ATTEMPTS AT SECURE COMMUNICATION
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
The FBI has spent many millions of dollars attempting to obtain secure
|
||||
communications by various voice encryption methods, with limited success.
|
||||
|
||||
The GAO Report of March 8, 1988, ``FBI Voice Privacy, Cost, Status, and
|
||||
Future Direction'' provides much insight into the difficulties the FBI has
|
||||
had establishing a secure communications system.
|
||||
|
||||
The FBI's original estimate for establishing a digial voice protection system
|
||||
was $79.3 million.
|
||||
|
||||
The March 8th report indicates that ``[b]ecause the FBI's estimated savings
|
||||
cited in the table are very preliminary and are not supported by formal field
|
||||
surveys or other documentation, we continue to believe that the $204.4
|
||||
million and the latest $205.8 million estimate for the nationwide voice
|
||||
privacy program appear to be unrealistic.''
|
||||
|
||||
A big part of the major cost overrun was a lack of technological review of
|
||||
what they were getting into.
|
||||
|
||||
``Our Feburary 1987 report explains that the technological impact of range
|
||||
loss on the DVP system was one factor that increased the FBI cost estimates
|
||||
from $79.3 million to $204.4 million. In the report, we say that `the FBI
|
||||
recognized in its 1979 to 1981 research that the communications range of DVP
|
||||
technology was less than the range of the old, unsecure system, but it did
|
||||
not consider the impact of this reduction.' The FBI says that this statement
|
||||
is `totally in error because we did recognize range loss and did consider its
|
||||
impact.
|
||||
|
||||
``In a follow-up discussion, a key FBI official who is knowledgable about the
|
||||
voice privacy cost estimate process told us that the FBI did not consider
|
||||
range loss in the $79.3 million estimate and emphasized that an engineering
|
||||
consultant firm developed the estimate as part of a comparison of analog
|
||||
versus digital voice privacy technologies. According to this official, range
|
||||
loss was not serious considered until the FBI prepared the $132.4 million
|
||||
estimate. The FBI says that its methodology for developing the $132.4 million
|
||||
estimate included doubled the number of repeaters to compensate for the DVP
|
||||
range loss.
|
||||
|
||||
However, a 1984 from the Deputy Assistant Director, Technical Services
|
||||
Division, the following range loss problems were described: ``The Motorola
|
||||
DVP/DES [Data Encryption Standard] system has a loss in range as a penalty
|
||||
for the effectiveness of the digital voice privacy. Experience in the six
|
||||
cities has demonstrated that to equal the existing geographic coverage, there
|
||||
is an 80%-100% increase in so called fixed station equipment (e.g. repeaters,
|
||||
cross band sites, and backbone equipment).''
|
||||
|
||||
Much of the FBI's difficults seems to be from a lack of proper management.
|
||||
According to the GAO report, ``[d]uring our review, we could not find any
|
||||
evidence that a long range plan for the nationwide DVP program had been
|
||||
prepared, and FBI officials confirmed that a written plan did not exist. The
|
||||
FBI contends that it was not feasable to prepare a formal plan for the DVP
|
||||
program, within time and manpower constraints. In follow-up discussions about
|
||||
their response to our report, FBI official emphasized that DVP is a threat
|
||||
driven system and told us that it was a management decision to go full speed
|
||||
ahead rather than plan.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, the FBI is trying to solve the problem with frequency hopping radios.
|
||||
According to Daniel Miller, Contracting Officer for the FBI, 45 PH-26
|
||||
(portable frequency hopping radios) and 20 MH-26 (mobile frequency hopping
|
||||
radios) along with numerous accessories, including 2 repeaters were purchased
|
||||
on September 24, 1990.
|
||||
|
||||
These radios are not FCC approved radio equipment and the FBI has a
|
||||
sole-source contract for them with Transcrypt International, Inc., 1440
|
||||
Buckingham Dr, Lincoln, NE 68506, Phone: (402) 483-2961, Fax: (402) 435-6780,
|
||||
Telex: 466146.
|
||||
|
||||
According to Transcrypt's brochure, ``encryption insures that no outside
|
||||
party can understand radio transmissions, an encrypted radio signal has a
|
||||
very distinctive sound; and with the right equipment, it can be jammed,
|
||||
intercepted, or the source located.''
|
||||
|
||||
Transcrypt refused to provide Full Disclosure with pricing information and
|
||||
that information was not available from the Government by press time. The
|
||||
going rate for this type of equipment, however is said to be approximately
|
||||
$10,000 per radio. Transcrypt will only sell the radio within the United
|
||||
States to law enforcement agencies.
|
||||
|
||||
Even though their brochure claims that both the public and private sectors
|
||||
outside the United States have the need for this type of secure
|
||||
communications (no mention is made that the private sector within the United
|
||||
States has such needs), a company spokesman seemed skeptical that the State
|
||||
Department would approve the radios for export.
|
||||
|
||||
The idea behind frequency hopping radios is that rather than transmitting
|
||||
constantly on one frequency, the frequency is changed many times per second
|
||||
in a pseudo-random fashion. These radios switch from 12 to 50 times per
|
||||
second, between any channels in a programmable window of the 148-174Mhz band.
|
||||
The window size is programmable between 100Khz and 1.6Mhz. Therefore, if the
|
||||
window size was set to 1.6Mhz and the window was located at 165.000mhz, the
|
||||
transmissions would occur only on frequencys between 165.000mhz and
|
||||
166.600mhz.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore, with a standard scanner one would not notice the existence of such
|
||||
transmission, nor be able to pin point them. Monitoring one of the
|
||||
frequencies it used in its hopping sequence would result only in a burst of
|
||||
noise 1/12 to 1/50 of a second in duration.
|
||||
|
||||
Another brochure from Transcrypt quotes from Communications Africa a claim
|
||||
that ``there are very few countries in which the equipment and expertise are
|
||||
available to try to break these systems.''
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, the FBI has a solution to is desire for secure communications or
|
||||
does it? The first glimpse to a line of attack is in the same brochure that
|
||||
quotes from Communications Africa. It explains how other (in use) frequencies
|
||||
in an urban environment gives the transmissions extra cover. Any kind of
|
||||
transmission made in an urban environment gets extra cover from all the other
|
||||
surrounding transmissions.
|
||||
|
||||
The fact that the transmissions need or gain from having ``cover'' indicates
|
||||
that they are not invisible.
|
||||
|
||||
Technical sources suggested the following as a method of detecting use of
|
||||
frequency hopping radios in the area. Hook a cable ready TV set to an
|
||||
appropriate antenna and tune it to the federal band (160-172mhz). Cable
|
||||
channels G, H and I. Each channel will display a 5mhz spectrum of the federal
|
||||
band. The complete frequency range of the radio would be cable channels A
|
||||
through I and 7.
|
||||
|
||||
The sources indicated that operation of a frequency hopping radio in the area
|
||||
will show a distinct pattern on the screen. To test this theory, Full
|
||||
Disclosure hooked up a low power programable RF oscillator to switch
|
||||
frequencies 15 times per second in the 160mhz range and powering the unit on
|
||||
showed a distinct change (unique unsynchronized horizontal lines) in the
|
||||
display on a TV set tuned to that frequency.
|
||||
|
||||
Because of the narrow window the units use, after locating the frequency of
|
||||
the window, jamming the unit could be accomplished with a wide bandwidth
|
||||
transmitter. (1.6mhz isn't real wide, compared to a 5mhz video transmitter).
|
||||
If a little used portion of the VHF band was selected for operation by the
|
||||
frequency hopping radios, jamming could be accomplished with little
|
||||
interference to other transmissions.
|
||||
|
||||
There is some dispute over the effectiveness of using a spectrum analyzer to
|
||||
spot the use of frequency hopping radios. One technical source aptly pointed
|
||||
out ``why worry about whether a spectrum analyzer works when a $100 TV set
|
||||
does?''
|
||||
|
||||
As with any new surveillance technology, there is a gap between its
|
||||
introduction and the availablity of countermeasures. Unlike spread spectrum
|
||||
radios that switch frequencies over the entire RF spectrum, frequency hopping
|
||||
radios operate in a very small window making detection, jamming, and
|
||||
direction finding a much simpler task.
|
||||
|
||||
The following are selected specifications for the PH-26 and MH-26 radios.
|
||||

The War On Privacy Hits You In The Pocket Book!
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
Why does the FBI and other select government agencies pay over $4,000 for a
|
||||
pocket tape recorder? One of the most important elements in an electronic
|
||||
surveillance operation is the tape recorder. Whether hidden in one's pocket
|
||||
or recording information from a wiretap or bug, the tape recorder can be the
|
||||
key to success or failure.
|
||||
|
||||
The FBI had a need for a specialized recorder, so they contracted with the
|
||||
U.S. subsidiary of a Swiss company, Nagra Magnetics, Inc. to design a
|
||||
recorder that met their needs. The result being the Nagra JBR subminiature
|
||||
recorder and PS-1 playback system.
|
||||
|
||||
When asked whether the unit was named after Jim B. Reames, an FBI employee
|
||||
who helped design the recorder, a Nagra spokeswomen refused to say, but
|
||||
pointed out that the initials were in fact the same.
|
||||
|
||||
The design and manufacture of the recorder has been so secret and important
|
||||
to the FBI (and two other unnamed government agencies who are supposedly the
|
||||
sole users of the recorder) that any public availability of information on
|
||||
the recorder would ``make the machine extinct,'' according to an employee of
|
||||
Narga who refused to provide any details on the recorder in a telephone
|
||||
interview.
|
||||
|
||||
It is also interesting to note that in the literature obtained by Full
|
||||
Disclosure from the NATIA show, several of the companies made mention of
|
||||
Narga tape recorders, but not the JBR model.
|
||||
|
||||
A freelance reporter who contacted Nagra in August, 1990, was informed that
|
||||
someone from the Justice Department had just visited to express the
|
||||
government's desire to keep the public ignorant about the JBR recorder.
|
||||
|
||||
Full Disclosure contacted Nagra on September 24, 1990 and was informed that
|
||||
they received a letter from the Government ``last week'' informing them that
|
||||
they couldn't give out any information on the JBR recorder. Nagra refused to
|
||||
disclose what agency sent the letter.
|
||||
|
||||
The company spokeswomen, also stated that they are not allowed to advertise
|
||||
the unit anywhere, and if they did they would ``lose all government
|
||||
contracts.'' She further stated that they wanted to advertise it in
|
||||
<N>Law and Order and could not.
|
||||
|
||||
Marketing is done by word of mouth and narcotics trade shows, she said. This
|
||||
seemed a little contrary to the first spokesman who said that there were only
|
||||
three customers for the JBR recorder.
|
||||
|
||||
Full Disclosure's investigative reporting team, was able to obtain complete
|
||||
specifications on both the recorder and playback unit.
|
||||
|
||||
Because of the secrecy around the recorder and its specifications, the unit
|
||||
is sole-sourced from Nagra. Inevitability when a product is available from a
|
||||
single source, there is no price competition.
|
||||
|
||||
The following public disclosure of the JBR specifications should serve two
|
||||
purposes:
|
||||
|
||||
1) to open a competitive market for this type of recorder, and
|
||||
|
||||
2) to give the American public more information on the tools the government
|
||||
uses to spy upon. Thereby increasing the public's ability to participate in
|
||||
political process as it relates to oversight and domestic use of spy
|
||||
technology.
|
||||
|
||||
@SUBHEAD = JBR RECORDER
|
||||
|
||||
``The recorder is stereophonic, with two totally independent channels. A
|
||||
third central track records a reference signal of 5,461 Hz. This signal is
|
||||
used later on in the playback system as a reference, in order to correct for
|
||||
speed variations.
|
||||
|
||||
``The recording speed is 15/16 ips. This speed is stabilized by an optical
|
||||
encoder system. In order to save energy and to reduce radiation as much as
|
||||
possible, no erasing head is provided. For basically the same reasons, and to
|
||||
ensure that the tapes remain genuine, there is also no playback facility
|
||||
provided on the recorder.
|
||||
|
||||
``Special Kudelski cassettes are used to provide two hours non stop recording
|
||||
autonomy. A set of three ``N'' size batteries are used allowing ten hours of
|
||||
operation.
|
||||
|
||||
``Even though the detectablility is minimal, the bias frequency is of 32KHz
|
||||
and has thus the same radiation as a quartz watch. The recorder weight is
|
||||
less than 200 grams, includes its cassette and batteries, and is really
|
||||
pocket size with cover: 110.2 x 62.6 x 20.8 mm (4.34: x 2.46" x 0.82").
|
||||
Miniature microphone and remote controls are available with different length
|
||||
cables.
|
||||
|
||||
So-called tape recorder detectors normally detect the presence of the ``bias
|
||||
oscillator'' in tape recorders. By using a non-standard and one that is also
|
||||
commonly used by other common devices makes detection by such a means more
|
||||
difficult.

The IRS is here to protect our rights
|
||||
Or the IRS finally hears about the Miranda Case.
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
Phoenix businessman David Carroll was acquitted in federal court of two
|
||||
felony counts of assault on a federal officer. Judge Charles L. Hardy, United
|
||||
States District Court Judge, found Carroll not guilty after hearing the
|
||||
testimony from the Government's only witness, Leo Anderson, an IRS revenue
|
||||
officer. The case was tried before a jury, but Judge Hardy ruled there was
|
||||
insufficient evidence for the case to proceed further and granted the Motion
|
||||
for Judgment of Acquittal made in court by Carroll's attorney, Mac MacPherson
|
||||
of Phoenix.
|
||||
|
||||
Carroll was charged in a two-count indictment in which the Grand Jury alleged
|
||||
that, on July 10, 1989, Carroll ``forcibly assaulted and resisted, opposed,
|
||||
impeded, intimidated and interfered with'' Anderson, who surprised Carroll at
|
||||
his home in effort to collect back taxes IRS claimed Carroll owed. In Count
|
||||
Two, the Grand Jury charged that Carroll ``by force and threats of force
|
||||
endeavored to intimidate and impede'' Anderson during the performance of
|
||||
Anderson's duties.
|
||||
|
||||
According to Anderson, rather than write a letter or call Carroll to schedule
|
||||
an appointment, he intentionally surprised Carroll at his home early one
|
||||
Monday morning. ``Surprise him at the door - that's the way we do it,''
|
||||
Anderson testified on cross examination by MacPherson. Anderson explained
|
||||
that IRS' new emphasis is that the collection officer be productive on the
|
||||
first contact. ``One call does it all,'' is our new motto, Anderson stated
|
||||
proudly.
|
||||
|
||||
According to Anderson, as he sat in his pickup truck in front of the Carroll
|
||||
residence, taking notes about Carroll's assets, the garage door opened and a
|
||||
man appeared. Anderson approached Carroll, identified himself and said he
|
||||
wanted immediate payment of $12,000. With this, Carroll began to close the
|
||||
garage door, bumped into Anderson and continued to push Anderson back several
|
||||
feet. Anderson did not leave. He kept asking questions and an argument
|
||||
ensued. The two men walked to the sidewalk, Carroll leading the way. Anderson
|
||||
testified that at that point Carroll walked toward him 'slowly and
|
||||
deliberately' and that Anderson was impeded from getting information from
|
||||
Carroll, such as where he banked, where he worked and what assets he had.
|
||||
|
||||
By this time, the men were yelling at one another and Anderson claimed that
|
||||
he was ``provoked, challenged, impeded'' and that he felt Carroll was trying
|
||||
to ``provoke him into hitting him.'' Anderson stated, ``And if I was not
|
||||
working, I would have hit him.''
|
||||
|
||||
Anderson testified that, rather than fight, he decided to leave the scene. He
|
||||
walked to his truck, got in and started it. But before he could close the
|
||||
door, Carroll followed him and stood between the door and the truck. (Editors
|
||||
note: Most people close the door first, then start their vehicle) Carroll
|
||||
was still talking, but Anderson didn't listen. Anderson said, ``Back off,''
|
||||
and Carroll immediately moved out of the way. Anderson closed the door and
|
||||
drove off.
|
||||
|
||||
Mr. Carroll had a different story to tell, which was related to judge and
|
||||
jury through MacPherson's opening statement: Anderson clearly violated the
|
||||
new Taxpayer Bill of Rights, a law enacted by Congress in November of 1988 as
|
||||
a result of abuse from IRS agents such as Anderson.
|
||||
|
||||
Under the new federal law, agents are required to give to taxpayers an
|
||||
explanation of their rights and make sure the citizen understands their
|
||||
rights by way of Publication 1. ``As a taxpayer, you have the right to be
|
||||
treated fairly, professionally, promptly and courteously by Internal Revenue
|
||||
Service employees. Our goal at the IRS is to protect your rights so that you
|
||||
will have the highest confidence in the integrity, efficiency and fairness of
|
||||
our tax system. To ensure that you always receive such treatment, you should
|
||||
know about the many rights you have at each step of the tax process.''
|
||||
Anderson did not give to Carroll Publication 1, nor mention Carroll's rights,
|
||||
which include the right to tape record proceedings, the right to have copies
|
||||
of IRS documents and the right to enter into an installment payment agreement
|
||||
with IRS when the taxpayer cannot afford to pay the tax in full.
|
||||
|
||||
Nothing was explained by Anderson. Instead, he kept demanding that he would
|
||||
accept full payment of $12,000 and nothing less. Through his tactics of
|
||||
surprise, fear and intimidation, Anderson attempted to coerce money from
|
||||
Carroll and get into the Carroll home without a court order. ``What will you
|
||||
settle for?'' Carroll kept asking. ``Full payment,'' was Anderson's repeated
|
||||
response.
|
||||
|
||||
But Carroll, a man who has his own retail business and was not about to be
|
||||
pushed around, was not phased. He shut the garage door to protect his privacy
|
||||
rights and, as he did so, Anderson stepped forward and the two men -
|
||||
Anderson, 260 pounds, and Carroll, 220 pounds - merely bumped stomachs.
|
||||
|
||||
Repeatedly, Carroll asked to see the documents which showed he owed the tax,
|
||||
and repeatedly Anderson refused. When Carroll threatened to eliminate any tax
|
||||
debts by filing bankruptcy, Anderson began his yelling tirade witnessed by
|
||||
Carroll's son, Callen, age 19, and two neighbors.
|
||||
|
||||
But it was not the Taxpayer Bill of Rights that caused Judge Hardy to find
|
||||
David Carroll not guilty; it was Anderson's own admissions on cross
|
||||
examination by MacPherson.
|
||||
|
||||
``You're a pretty big fellow, Mr. Anderson, and when the stomach bumping
|
||||
occurred, you weren't in the least bit afraid of Mr. Carroll, were you?'' To
|
||||
this, Anderson replied, ``No, I wasn't at all afraid.'' Anderson went on to
|
||||
admit that when he and Carroll left the garage for the sidewalk, it was
|
||||
Carroll, not Anderson, who led the way, despite Anderson's previous testimony
|
||||
that he ``retreated'' to his truck. Given these facts, Judge Hardy ruled that
|
||||
there was no assault, nor did Carroll attempt in any way to impede Anderson.
|
||||
The jury was thanked and dismissed.
|
||||
|
||||
On the two-count indictment, David Carroll faced a maximum penalty of eight
|
||||
years in jail and a fine of $100,000.
|
||||
|
||||
MacPherson, a certified tax specialist and certified criminal law specialist,
|
||||
has tried over 50 criminal tax cases in federal court in twenty-three
|
||||
different states and is author of Tax Fraud & Evasion: The War Stories. War
|
||||
Stories chronicles many of his winning cases, and MacPherson states that the
|
||||
Carroll case will be an added chapter to War Stories, Part II, which
|
||||
MacPherson is now writing for release this summer. The theme of War Stories:
|
||||
citizens should not be fearful of their own Government (the IRS); they can
|
||||
eliminate fear, and its stepchild intimidation, by coming to an understanding
|
||||
of how the criminal tax system works. This can best be done by actual case
|
||||
histories.

Suveillance Conference Overview
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
The National Technical Investigators Association (NATIA) held their 5th
|
||||
annual conference in San Antonio, Texas, August 26th-31th.
|
||||
|
||||
Participation in the conference was 600 attendees up from 500 last year.
|
||||
However, there was a conspicuous lack of people from the military
|
||||
intelligence community.
|
||||
|
||||
As usual with government related electronic surveillance operations,
|
||||
techniques, equipment, etc, secrecy prevails. Due to efforts by Full
|
||||
Disclosure, the San Antonio area media was informed about the show. They,
|
||||
however, were all turned away at the gate. The result being no local press
|
||||
coverage occured.
|
||||
|
||||
NATIA is an organization of over 2300 supervisory law enforcement officers,
|
||||
communications and security managers assigned to support technical
|
||||
investigative activities in the major federal, state and local enforcement
|
||||
and intelligence agencies.
|
||||
|
||||
The NATIA membership is responsible for supplying all of the various
|
||||
communications, audio, video, photographic, specialized electronic systems
|
||||
and investigative aids used in support of these sensitive bugging,
|
||||
wiretapping and intelligence activities.
|
||||
|
||||
The annual conference is used by manufactures of spy equipment to introduce
|
||||
their new wares and sell more of the old stuff and for members to learn all
|
||||
the newest tricks, scams and techniques.
|
||||
|
||||
Consequently, NATIA and its membership has a sigificant role in domestic
|
||||
spying activities. NATIA's role not only includes the equipment, but
|
||||
standards, operations, techniques, tricks, and the like. Such activities are
|
||||
purportely regulated and overseen by the public, through Congress, by the
|
||||
political process.
|
||||
|
||||
Any effective oversight or regulation requires information; information that
|
||||
NATIA desires to suppress from the American public. The First Amendment,
|
||||
however, assures that the public will be informed. Full Disclosure was able
|
||||
to obtain many documents at the show and the essential information content
|
||||
will be presented in this and future issues. Articles based upon show
|
||||
information will be indiciated as such.
|
||||
|
||||
The desire to suppress this information is so great, that due to Full
|
||||
Disclosure's publication of the 1989 NATIA conference exhibitors directory,
|
||||
there was no directory made for 1990. (The essential information content from
|
||||
the show schedule is presented below).
|
||||
|
||||
Not only was NATIA furious over the publication of the exhibitors directory,
|
||||
but also over the fact that several hundred copies of the issue with the
|
||||
directory were distributed on the show floor.
|
||||
|
||||
What was the atmosphere of show? At night, some members, partied like
|
||||
motorcycle gang members. During the day, however, it was strictly business.
|
||||
The following is an overview of the technical and management seminars that
|
||||

MAIL SURVEILLANCE
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
In Full Disclosure #21 information was provided on ``mail covers'' where
|
||||
information on the outside of mail is recorded and provided to law
|
||||
enforcement and/or intelligence agencies. That article prompted questions by
|
||||
readers about when the post office might actually open mail and examine its
|
||||
contents. This article will explore an actual case where mail was opened and
|
||||
overview the postal procedure for mail openings in drug related cases.
|
||||
|
||||
Full Disclosure was able to obtain copies of documents filed in the federal
|
||||
court in Chicago, Illinois on February 2, 1990 that provide the following
|
||||
description of the mail opening program:
|
||||
|
||||
``The Chicago Division of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service has implemented
|
||||
an Express Mail Profile program at the Air Mail Facility (AMF) at Chicago
|
||||
O'Hare International Airport This program consists of a physical profile of
|
||||
Express Mail parcels which have been mailed to or from locations within the
|
||||
Northern District of Illinois. Targets were cities and/or areas of the United
|
||||
States which have been identified by law enforcement as being source areas
|
||||
for the distribution of narcotics, and/or controlled substances.''
|
||||
|
||||
The package in this particular case had a return address in Evanston,
|
||||
Illinois, delivery address in Chicago (the same name on both), and a post
|
||||
mark in San Francisco. However, another case that was reviewed showed the
|
||||
return address and postmark to correspond. The physical appearance in both
|
||||
cases were rather generic (according to the descriptions offered in the court
|
||||
files)
|
||||
|
||||
W. Earnst Hills of the Postal Inspection Service in Chicago said in an
|
||||
interview that this program was not ongoing but rather goes into effect
|
||||
whenever they get information from other agencies that indicate a suspicious
|
||||
package is on the way. For example, if a DEA agent observes a suspected drug
|
||||
dealer mail a package, the description of that package would be passed on and
|
||||
packages fitting that description would be selected for further review.
|
||||
|
||||
Hills' description of the program was that the Postal Inspection service
|
||||
would receive a tip from another agency that a suspicious package was on the
|
||||
way. They would then be looking for it at the O'Hare Air Mail Facility.
|
||||
|
||||
``One of the things we look for is fictitious return addresses'' said Hills.
|
||||
He didn't think there was a problem with it taking too much time to do this
|
||||
type of checking.
|
||||
|
||||
After packages have been selected by their physical description, they are
|
||||
subjected to drug sniffing dogs or machines. The dog test consists of several
|
||||
similar packages being put in separate nylon sacks and if the dog bites and
|
||||
scratches at the nylon sack with the suspect parcel, a search warrant is
|
||||
sought.
|
||||
|
||||
Hills indicated that the mail is not significantly delayed. Since most mail
|
||||
arrives very early in the morning they have plenty of time to examine it
|
||||
prior to the necessary delivery time later in the day. He also said that they
|
||||
will get a magistrate up in the middle of the night to issue a search warrant.
|
||||
|
||||
Upon receipt of the search warrant, the package is opened and inspected for
|
||||
contraband. Hills said that normally, the package will then be sealed back up
|
||||
and delivered by a postal inspector who will arrest the recipient after they
|
||||
accept the package.
|
||||
|
||||
What if a warrant is issued and the package does not contain contraband?
|
||||
Hills was unsure, stating that as far as he knew they had a ``100% success
|
||||
rate'' on finding contraband in parcels opened pursuant to a search warrant.
|
||||
However, he offered to find out what the procedure would be if the package
|
||||
didn't contain contraband.
|
||||
|
||||
Hills findings were that there has been ``no incident like that in Chicago.''
|
||||
However, when it has happened in other locations that have put a copy of the
|
||||
search warrant in the package and had it delivered normally. Hills cautioned,
|
||||
however that it wasn't necessary standard procedure to do that, only that it
|
||||
had been done in some cases.

Inside The Postal Mail Cover
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
A mail cover. What is it? How does it work?
|
||||
|
||||
A postal mail cover is where a law enforcement agency makes arrangements with
|
||||
the Postal Inspectors to obtain a copy of the addressee, sender, return
|
||||
address, place & date of postmark and class of mail for all mail being
|
||||
delivered to a given address.
|
||||
|
||||
No mail is opened in a mail cover program. Therefore, the government doesn't
|
||||
consider the Fourth Amendment Constitutional limitations on search and
|
||||
seizure to apply.
|
||||
|
||||
A big concern, though is the delay of mail. Instructions to the postal
|
||||
employees preparing the Form 2009 reports stress that mail cannot be delayed.
|
||||
The postmaster is also required to certify that the mail recorded on the Form
|
||||
2009 was not delayed.
|
||||
|
||||
The post office, is concerned about privacy in mail covers. Privacy about
|
||||
what they are doing. The Form 2009s have to be returned to the postal
|
||||
inspectors doubled enveloped in opaque envelopes, with the inner envelope
|
||||
marked ``limited official use.''
|
||||
|
||||
The postal inspectors then forward the forms to the requesting law
|
||||
enforcement agency. However, it is pointed out that the forms remain the
|
||||
property of the postal inspectors and that it is preferred that the
|
||||
information is not used in any court proceedings, ie: the post office wishes
|
||||
it to remain private that they are invading the public's privacy with mail
|
||||
covers.

DR. RIPCO SEIZURE
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
On May 8, 1990, Agents of the United States Secret Service, along with police
|
||||
and telephone company security personnel executed thirty-two search warrants
|
||||
across the United States as part of a two year investigation into the
|
||||
activities of computer hackers.
|
||||
|
||||
Full Disclosure's investigative reporting team was able to obtain the
|
||||
application for one of the searches that occurred in Chicago, Illinois
|
||||
(actually two identical warrants, one for the business and one for the
|
||||
residence address of a computer bulletin board (BBS) system operator).
|
||||
|
||||
Copies of a number of other search & seizure warrants were also obtained.
|
||||
First we will examine the two kinds of warrants and then look at the
|
||||
specifics of the May 8, 1990 warrant executed in Chicago, Illinois.
|
||||
|
||||
The application forms for both types of warrants are nearly identical, except
|
||||
for a key concept. The identification, government agent, and notary parts are
|
||||
the same. The purpose of the application is where the difference comes in.
|
||||
|
||||
The search warrant application form reads as follows: ``I am a(n)
|
||||
[official title] and have reason to believe that [] on the person of or [] on
|
||||
the property or premises know as (name, description and/or location)
|
||||
[property address], in the Northern District of Illinois there is now
|
||||
concealed a certain person or property, namely (describe the person or
|
||||
property to be seized) [descrip<>tion] which is (state one or more bases for
|
||||
search and seizure set forth under rule 41(n) of the Federal Rules of
|
||||
Criminal Procedure) concerning a violation of Title [ ] United States code,
|
||||
Section(s) [ ]. The facts to support a finding of Probable Cause are as
|
||||
follows:...'' [Emphasis added]
|
||||
|
||||
The seizure warrant application form reads as follows: ``I am a(n)
|
||||
[official title] there is now certain property which is subject to
|
||||
forfeiture to the United States, namely (describe property to be seized)
|
||||
[property description], in the Northern District of Illinois which is (state
|
||||
one or more reasons for seizure under the United States Code) concerning a
|
||||
violation of Title [ ] United States code, Section(s) [ ]. The facts to
|
||||
support a finding of Probable Cause for issuance of a Seizure Warrant are as
|
||||
follows:...'' [Emphasis added]
|
||||
|
||||
The content of the applications varies in what is being sought, also. For
|
||||
example, in one search warrant application seeking a warrant to search a
|
||||
computer system in Lockport, Illinois, the applicant stated in part: ``My
|
||||
investigation has revealed that on or about October 5, 1989, Richard Andrews
|
||||
and Leonard Rose transported a stolen or fraudulently obtained computer
|
||||
program worth $77,000.00 from Middle Town, Maryland to Naperville, Illinois
|
||||
and then to Lockport, Illinois.'' This affidavit was not part of the May
|
||||
8, 1990 series of ``Sundevil'' warrants.
|
||||
|
||||
Along with the other information provided in the application lead the
|
||||
Magistrate to conclude that there was probable cause that evidence of a crime
|
||||
would be found on the computer in Lockport. A search warrant was issued.
|
||||
|
||||
The application for a seizure warrant (filed by the Chicago Police Department
|
||||
in Federal Court), however, was directed toward a different end: ``Our
|
||||
investigation has revealed that Rufus Sims is a major narcotics dealer
|
||||
operating primarily on the west side of Chicago. Since February 1989, the
|
||||
United States has seized over $1.2 million in assets, including three parcels
|
||||
of real estate (including an apartment building), numerous auto-mobiles and
|
||||
over $650,000 in currency, that are the proceeds of Rufus Sims' narcotics
|
||||
activity. Rufus Sims has not attempted to dispute the forfeiture of any of
|
||||
this property or contested the fact that the property is narcotics proceeds.
|
||||
. . . Our investigation has revealed that there is a safe deposit box
|
||||
registered to Steven Sims at Austin Bank of Chicago, 5645 West Lake Street,
|
||||
Chicago, Illinois. Based upon what our previous investigation has revealed
|
||||
about the manner in which Rufus Sims conceals his narcotics proceeds, often
|
||||
using safe deposit boxes registered in the names of friends and family
|
||||
members, and based upon Steven Sims' direct involvement in Rufus Sims'
|
||||
organization and his participation in the handling of narcotics proceeds with
|
||||
Rufus Sims, I believe that this safe deposit box contains proceeds of
|
||||
narcotics transactions and that such contents are subject to forfeiture
|
||||
pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 881(a)(6).''
|
||||
|
||||
In short, the search warrant is to seek out evidence of a crime and may
|
||||
involve the seizure of property for evidential purposes. The seizure warrant
|
||||
is for transferring assets from an individual to the government because the
|
||||
government is statutory ``owed'' those assets for some reason. In essence the
|
||||
seizure warrant imposes a punishment without trial or such legal activities
|
||||
as the average citizen equates with due process.
|
||||
|
||||
The May 8, 1990 warrant executed in Chicago, Illinois as part of the
|
||||
nationwide sweep was not a search warrant. Rather it sought ``property
|
||||
which is subject to forfeiture to the United States'' was located at a
|
||||
particular location, being the location of a computer bulletin board named
|
||||
``Dr. Ripco.''
|
||||
|
||||
From the start it was curious that Dr. Ripco was served a seizure warrant
|
||||
seeking forfeiture of his computer equipment when the government was
|
||||
apparently seeking evidence of the crimes of computer hackers. However, an
|
||||
interview with the system operator disclosed that after his equipment was
|
||||
carted off on May 8, 1990 he hadn't heard back. No arrest was forthcoming,
|
||||
not even an interview.<M^>*1
|
||||
|
||||
Why was the system seized? The Secret Service employed a confidential
|
||||
informant (CI 404-235) who accessed Dr. Ripco over three dozen times in 1989
|
||||
and over a dozen in 1990. He is reported to have regularly seen messages
|
||||
posted by other users which contained long distance carrier customer
|
||||
authorization codes, references to hacking, and to credit cards and credit
|
||||
bureaus.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the messages in question were quoted in the warrant application. A
|
||||
number of them that provided long distance access codes also had verification
|
||||
by the long distance carrier that such codes had or had not been used
|
||||
fraudulently. Additionally, CI 404-235 and one of the board users arranged
|
||||
(apparently by way of private electronic mail on Dr. Ripco) to exchange
|
||||
credit card numbers for long distance access codes. CI 404-235 was given
|
||||
special authorization codes by U.S. Sprint to use for this purpose. No
|
||||
mention is made as to whether any fraudulent calls were made on that
|
||||
authorization code, nor whether the credit card numbers received by CI
|
||||
404-235 would pass the cursory verification requested by retailers. Nor are
|
||||
there any presented allegations that any attempts were made to utilize the
|
||||
credit card numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
What did the system operator do? The application fails to allege that the
|
||||
system operator was in any was involved in telecommunications fraud, credit
|
||||
card fraud, or any other crime. In its definitions of BBS and system
|
||||
operators it presents a picture where the job of being a system operator is
|
||||
time consuming due to the volume of messages that have to be reviewed.
|
||||
|
||||
No statutes are cited defining any obligations or responsibilities of system
|
||||
operations to either control the content of messages on their system, nor
|
||||
report ``illegal'' messages to any authorities.
|
||||
|
||||
It only by implication states that the Dr. Ripco system operator didn't
|
||||
fulfill their unsupported claim that a system operator has some obligation to
|
||||
control content of messages: ``[s]pecial Agent Lawson's investigation has
|
||||
further determined that the access codes posted on the RIPCO BBS are not
|
||||
concealed from the system administrator of the bbs and could be seen by the
|
||||
system administrator of the bbs during an examination.''
|
||||
|
||||
Part of the application's definition of the responsibility of the system
|
||||
operator is the ability to read every message on the system, including
|
||||
private electronic mail messages. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act
|
||||
of 1986 raises legal questions about the right of a system operator to do so,
|
||||
contrary to whatever technical abilities might exist. Similar to the
|
||||
prohibitions of telephone company personnel taping phone lines.
|
||||
|
||||
The application is also silent about what efforts Dr. Ripco's system
|
||||
administrator took to delete such messages if and when he discovered them.
|
||||
Assuming that he didn't review, or that if he did review them, didn't delete
|
||||
any messages, it is not clear that as merely as the provider of an electronic
|
||||
communications service he is anymore liable for the content of messages, than
|
||||
the telephone companies are liable for the content of conversations their
|
||||
equipment carries. There were no allegations in the warrant application that
|
||||
the system operated posted any such information.
|
||||
|
||||
There are many legal questions regarding the liability of BBS operators with
|
||||
respect to message content on their services, legal responsibility to review
|
||||
public and/or private messages raised by this case.
|
||||
|
||||
The action taken in this case appears to be directed at solving the computer
|
||||
crime problem by indirect means. There are no allegations of criminal
|
||||
activity by the system operator. Rather than issue a subpoena to the system
|
||||
operator (under the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986) for
|
||||
applicable records and messages of those users that were involved in criminal
|
||||
activity, they took an unique route.
|
||||
|
||||
They declared that third party equipment used by numerous members of the
|
||||
public, including some who might have engaged in criminal activity (Full
|
||||
Disclosure has been unable to find any federal criminal court cases relating
|
||||
to the Dr. Ripco users named in the application that were involved in credit
|
||||
card/long distance authorization access code trading) to be subject to
|
||||
forfeiture to the United States. A court order was then obtained without the
|
||||
knowledge or the ability of the owner to contest such proceeding.
|
||||
|
||||
The same technique used against other electronic communications providers
|
||||
would be considered so outrageous as to not even be attempted; seizing AT&T
|
||||
long distance microwave links, for example, because some drug dealers
|
||||
arranged a deal in a conversation that was carried by them. However, many see
|
||||
BBS systems as a threat to the power structure as they allow any individual
|
||||
to reach a broad audience with his opinions. The power to reach a vast
|
||||
audience with a political opinion has till now been limited to a select few.
|
||||
|
||||
Mixing up the problem of those desiring criminal intent with those simply
|
||||
exercising first amendment rights is surely an effective method of smearing
|
||||
those with no bad intent. Subjecting those who desire to provide a wide-area
|
||||
public communications system to average members of the public to arbitrary
|
||||
punishment because a few miscreants act inappropriately is as absurd as
|
||||
seizing a long distance network over a drug dealers conversation.
|
||||
|
||||
*1 Interestingly, according to Federal Court records in Chicago,
|
||||
Rufus Sims (as of January 7th, 1991) had never been charged with any federal
|
||||
crime, even though the federal government had been seizing narcotics assets
|
||||
since February 1989.

|
||||
|
||||
The Central Intelligence Agency like many revoluntionary organizations
|
||||
(including the Russian KGB) organize their agent networks on a "cell" system,
|
||||
with small groups who meet and carry out specific activities. The small groups
|
||||
have very few connections with the rest of the organization. Typically, the
|
||||
connections between cells will involve only one person in each cell. See
|
||||
sample organizational chart prepared by the Central Intelligence Agency for use
|
||||
in Nicaragua by the "Freedom Commandos" (reprinted from Psychological
|
||||
Operations in Guerrilla Warfare, the CIA's Nicaragua manual).
|
||||
|
||||
When this structure is used and a member of a cell is discovered and forced
|
||||
to talk, he can only inform on members of his own cell. If he was the person
|
||||
with a connection to another cell it is possible that other cell will also be
|
||||
compromised, but only after the connection is traced. However, the tracing
|
||||
procedure is very slow, giving the organization time to regroup.
|
||||
|
||||
Although the tracing of the cell structure is very slow, intelligence
|
||||
information can be passed to the main organization quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
The main problem with such a cell structure is that the messages which pass
|
||||
through many cells can get grabled and since the cells have great autonomy they
|
||||
sometimes work at cross purposes.
|
||||
|
||||
The CIA extends the cell system to include Police Departments, Labor
|
||||
Unions, Student Associations, Medical Associations, Reporters/Editors etc.
|
||||
These cells are created by recruiting (or placing) an agent within the
|
||||
organization. The placement of the agent would depend on the main purpose of
|
||||
infiltrating the organization: information or control. Usually, most of the
|
||||
people in the "organization" cells don't know that they are working for the
|
||||
Central Intelligence Agency.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, the CIA controls numerous "private" corporations. Usually,
|
||||
only a few of the top officers are aware of the CIA connection. The
|
||||
corporations conduct normal business operations, and are also available to
|
||||
provide services for the CIA whenever necessary.

||||
Maxwell Taylor published in The Pentagon Papers, described "unconventional
|
||||
warfare resources in Southeast Asia" as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
CAT [Civil Air Transport] is a commerical
|
||||
air line engaged in scheduled and nonscheduled
|
||||
air operations throughout the Far East, with
|
||||
headquarters and large maintenance facilities
|
||||
in Taiwan. CAT, a CIA proprietary
|
||||
[corporation], provides air logistical support
|
||||
under commerical air cover to most CIA and
|
||||
other U.S. Government Agencies' requirements.
|
||||
CAT supports covert and clandestine air
|
||||
operations by providing trained and experienced
|
||||
personnel, procurement of supplies and
|
||||
equipment through covert commerical channels,
|
||||
and the maintenance of a fairly large inventory
|
||||
of transport and other type aircraft under both
|
||||
Chinat [Chinese Nationalist] and U.S. registry.
|
||||
|
||||
CAT has demonstrated its capabilities on
|
||||
numerous occasions to meet all types of
|
||||
contingency or long-term covert air
|
||||
requirements in support of U.S. objectives.
|
||||
During the last ten years, it has had some
|
||||
notable achievements, including support of the
|
||||
Chinese Nationalist withdrawal from the
|
||||
mainland, air drop support to the French at
|
||||
Dien Bien Phu, complete logistical and tactical
|
||||
air support for the Indonesian operation, air
|
||||
lifts of refugees from North Vietnam, more than
|
||||
200 overflights of Mainland China and Tibet,
|
||||
and extensive air support in Laos during the
|
||||
current crisis...
|
||||
|
||||
When the goal is to control the organization, the agent would be in a
|
||||
powerful place, like a Sergeant in a Police Department. This would enable the
|
||||
CIA to make use of the Police Department resources, computer data banks,
|
||||
officers, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
The police officers might perform surveillance on a target for the
|
||||
Sergeant, not knowing that they were really working for the CIA. According to
|
||||
Philip Agee/1, "Thousands of policemen all over the world, for instance, are
|
||||
shadowing people for the CIA without knowing it. They think they're working
|
||||
for their own police departments, when, in fact, their chief may be a CIA agent
|
||||
who's sending them out on CIA jobs and turning their information over to his
|
||||
CIA control".
|
||||
|
||||
Agents in Labor Unions can encourage strikes to cause economic difficulties
|
||||
when the CIA wants to stir up political problems in foreign countries.
|
||||
Reporters and editors can be used to plant propaganda in the press or have
|
||||
information withheld when its in the CIA's best interest not to have it
|
||||
printed/2.
|
||||
|
||||
When the goal is information collection the target organization would more
|
||||
likely be other intelligence services, medical or technology associations. The
|
||||
agent would be placed so that he would have access to as much information as
|
||||
possible. This could be a communications or mail clerk, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
The CIA also targets banks for infiltration. They are good organizations
|
||||
to provide cover for CIA personnel in foreign countries. The bank can provide
|
||||
necessary accounts in bogus names. They can also provide faked account
|
||||
balances so that background checks would out come out positive. Banks are also
|
||||
used for funding mechanisms. The Bank of Boston was used for such purposes by
|
||||
the CIA in Brazil/1.
|
||||
|
||||
When the cells aren't aware that they're working for the CIA, or think
|
||||
they're working for someone else, they can be put to other devious uses. For
|
||||
example, if the CIA controlled a cell which thought it worked for the PLO, they
|
||||
could send it on a terrorist mission with the intent that they be caught. This
|
||||
would have a two fold advantage for the CIA, first, the PLO would be blamed
|
||||
(providing a good opportunity for the U.S. government to expouse propaganda
|
||||
against the PLO), and secondly, it would allow the CIA to commit a terrorist
|
||||
attack with extremely little risk of exposure -- to achieve a greater level of
|
||||
interference in the affairs of foreign governments.
|
||||
|
||||
The CIA can also use cells within an organization which aren't aware of
|
||||
their connection to the CIA for less devious purposes. For examples, they can
|
||||
make public statement which have the effect of alienating their supporters.
|
||||
When one section makes offensive public statements, major disruptions can occur
|
||||
within the organization.

The World of Surveillance
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
Surveillance (7906 Hope Valley Ct, Adamstown, MD 20710, $35/yr) reports on
|
||||
phone taps via teleconferencing. This simple technique involves the
|
||||
``tappers'' conference calling two parties he wishes to spy on. He then
|
||||
listens and records the ensuring conversation. It is pointed out that this
|
||||
technique is not universally applicable, but is limited to situations where
|
||||
both parties normally answer the phone on the first ring. (And don't realize
|
||||
that neither one called the other).
|
||||
|
||||
2600 (Box 752, Middle Island, NY 11953, $18/yr) reports that some cordless
|
||||
phones, including the General Electric System 10, model 2-9675, transmits
|
||||
phone conversation made through a standard phone when the unit is hooked up.
|
||||
Most people would assume that when they didn't use the cordless handset,
|
||||
their calls wouldn't be broadcast for any nosey neighbors or others to
|
||||
monitor.
|
||||
|
||||
CAR CADDY
|
||||
|
||||
The Concealment or Car Caddy is a device to covertly record the conversations
|
||||
of passengers in an automobile. It looks just like a litterbasket / snack
|
||||
tray.
|
||||
|
||||
However, hidden inside is a tape recorder. It can either have one microphone
|
||||
powered by a hearing aid battery or two powered by the tape recorder.
|
||||
|
||||
The SME-700 unit (stereo unit, with two microphones) sale is restricted only
|
||||
to federal and state law enforcement agencies. However, the SME-RN36 unit is
|
||||
available to anyone wishing to pay $385 for it. The SME-RN36 is configured
|
||||
with a 2 hour recorder.
|
||||
|
||||
When asked what the reason for the restriction on the SME-700 was, Saul
|
||||
Mineroff stated that ``it has certain features designed with federal agencies
|
||||
and that was the agreement.''
|
||||
|
||||
The snack tray is slid back to activate the recorder and forward to turn it
|
||||
off.
|
||||
|
||||
This unit is produced by Saul Mineroff Electronics, Inc., 574 Meacham Av,
|
||||
Elmont, New York 11003, Phone: (516) 775 1370, Fax: (516) 775-1371.
|
||||
|
||||
When Saul Mineroff refused to openly provide information on the features of
|
||||
the SME-700 recorder, Full Disclosure was able to obtain ``Confidential
|
||||
Information on SME 700 Surveillance System.'' The SME 700 is actually, just
|
||||
the recorder, which can go in the car caddy, be worn on the body or used in
|
||||
another applicable situation. Following are excerpts from the document:
|
||||
|
||||
``Saul Mineroff, of Mineroff Electronics has worked for over a decade in
|
||||
cooperation with the Drug Enforcement Administration and F.B.I. personnel
|
||||
(along with various U.S. Governmental agencies) to develop a highly
|
||||
sophisticated foolproof body surveillance recorder with simple operating
|
||||
functions.
|
||||
|
||||
``The SME 700 Recorder is designed strictly for law enforcement agencies. The
|
||||
sale of this unit will only be distributed to law enforcement personnel. Its
|
||||
primary use and design is for the agent in the field.
|
||||
|
||||
``The SME 700 makes recordings in stereo. Because stereo utilizes two
|
||||
channels, it is easier for the human ear to identify certain sounds in the
|
||||
recordings (e.g. if multiple voices were recorded, it is easier to depict
|
||||
each individual voice when recorded in stereo). After recordings are made on
|
||||
the SME 700 Recorder they are played back on the SME 701 playback unit.
|
||||
|
||||
``There are many features fabricated into the SME 700 Recorder. The first
|
||||
feature is the ability to record multiple voices and attenuate background
|
||||
noise levels drastically. By using fast acting A.L.C., special filtering, and
|
||||
compressing circuits, along with DNR (Dynamic Noise Reduction) in playback
|
||||
unit, background noises are suppressed allowing the primary voices to be
|
||||
recorded and played back.
|
||||
|
||||
``The SME 700 Recorder is non-detectable (via tape recorder detectors). The
|
||||
circuit employs low frequency A-C bias, is completely shielded, and doesn't
|
||||
generate radiation. Radiation is what tape recorder detectors detect.
|
||||
|
||||
The other features are mechanical in nature to prevent accidental operation.
|
||||
|
||||
MINIATURE BUG
|
||||
|
||||
This subminiature bug, is available in a VHF and UHF version. The 900mhz
|
||||
version is pictured here (actual size). The manufacturer, ATET, Via G. Da
|
||||
Verrazzano, 42, 10129 Torino, Italy, Phone: 011/ 59-04 93, Telex: 213273,
|
||||
TOATET I, claims that the unit is the smallest crystal controlled units being
|
||||
manufactured in the world today.
|
||||
|
||||
Both units work over a input voltage range of 3 to 12 volts providing maximum
|
||||
flexibility in power sources. The power output ranges from
|
||||
.7mw to 135mw on the VHF unit and 3mw to 20mw on the UHF depending
|
||||
on input voltage.
|
||||
|
||||
Several adapters are available for the units: 1) Telephone adapter, converts
|
||||
the module into a series telephone transmitter which obtains power from the
|
||||
phone line, 2) External microphone adapter, converts the module into a
|
||||
body-worn transmitter with the capability of total concealment, and 3)
|
||||
Vehicle adapter, connects to the internal supply circuitry of a motor vehicle
|
||||
and produces continuous transmission.
|
||||
|
||||
The VHF unit has a frequency range of 135 - 175 mhz FM. The UHF frequency
|
||||
range is 700 - 1100mhz FM. The dimensions of both are 9 x 21 x 22 mm.
|
||||
|
||||
The most significant problem with these units is a frequency shift over time.
|
||||
As you can see from the photograph, the unit was originally manufactured for
|
||||
900.270mhz and shifted to 900.265mhz and 900.260mhz.
|
||||
|
||||
This particular unit was tested by the Drug Enforcement Administration.
|
||||
|
||||
The U.S. Distributor for these bugs is: Knox Security, 335 Greenwich Rd,
|
||||
Greenwich, CT 06830, Phone: (203) 622-7300.
|
||||

DUMPSTER DIVING
|
||||
|
||||
COPYRIGHT (C) 1991 BY FULL DISCLOSURE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
|
||||
|
||||
In light of the recent debates regarding the various activities of the
|
||||
``hacking community'' and it various methods of collecting and distributing
|
||||
information the following legal opinion by the Detroit, Michigan Police
|
||||
Department is presented to give some insight on the activity refered to as
|
||||
``Dumpster Diving.''
|
||||
|
||||
Not only does this opinion show that such an activity can be legal but that
|
||||
it is not exclusive to the hackers, but is a investigative procedure of law
|
||||
enforcement agencies:
|
||||
|
||||
SEARCH OF ABANDONED REFUSE
|
||||
|
||||
``A recent Michigan Court of Appeals decision concerns searches of rubbish
|
||||
and garbage without a search warrant. Although courts in other states have
|
||||
addressed the legality of such searches, no Michigan appellate court has ever
|
||||
been confronted with the question.
|
||||
|
||||
``People v Richard Whotte aka Richard Breathour
|
||||
|
||||
``QUESTION: Is it ever legal to search rubbish and refuse for evidence if the
|
||||
rubbish or refuse has not been set out for or picked up by trash collectors
|
||||
if I do not first obtain a search warrant?
|
||||
|
||||
``ANSWER: Such searches without search warrants are permissible if they meet
|
||||
the standards listed in People v Whotte.
|
||||
|
||||
``DISCUSSION:
|
||||
|
||||
``In People v Whotte, Mich App (Feb 1982), a Grosse Pointe Park detective was
|
||||
investigating a hold-up of a bar when he had occasion to speak to a possible
|
||||
subject at a two-family apartment. The detective noted that there was
|
||||
domestic rubbish scattered in the backyard of a two-family flat and it
|
||||
appeared that dogs, cats, or other animals had strewn the litter about the
|
||||
yard in searching for foodstuffs. The detective noted credit card receipts
|
||||
within the refuse in the name of the suspect. The next day, the detective
|
||||
returned, re-examined the credit card receipts, and looked inside one of the
|
||||
torn open bags in the yard, finding the suspect's wedding license and a
|
||||
wallet of one of the victims. This information was elicited in testimony at
|
||||
the circuit court. Upon this and other evidence, defendant was found guilty
|
||||
and eventually appealed his conviction, unsuccessfully.
|
||||
|
||||
``Other states have addressed the issue of whether or not a search warrant is
|
||||
needed to examine trash and have generally decided that such searches are
|
||||
legal if the garbage has been left at a spot where the garbage is collected
|
||||
by the collection service or if the garbage has lost its identity by being
|
||||
mingled with other people's trash. The Michigan Court of Appeals has adopted
|
||||
the Alaska rule, which attempts to determine if the search violates the trash
|
||||
owner's reasonable expectations of privacy. That determination is made
|
||||
considering these factors:
|
||||
|
||||
``1. Where the trash is located;
|
||||
|
||||
``2. Whether the dwelling is a multiple or single family unit;
|
||||
|
||||
``3. Who recovered the trash;
|
||||
|
||||
``4. Where the search of the trash takes place.
|
||||
|
||||
``Based on these standards, a search warrant is probably needed if the
|
||||
rubbish is stored immediately outside a rear door of a single family dwelling
|
||||
and only placed outside the back fence on trash collection day. However,
|
||||
trash thrown onto a common heap in the backyard of a large apartment building
|
||||
where roaming dogs strew it about would not require a warrant. Further,
|
||||
although the test might indicate otherwise, trial courts will probably not
|
||||
allow searches of trash inside of buildings even if there has been indication
|
||||
of intent to abandon the trash.
|
||||
|
||||
``The test announced in this new case adopts a common sense approach as to
|
||||
whether the trash has been abandoned or just removed from inside the house to
|
||||
a more convenient location. Common sense would also dictate, though, that in
|
||||
questionable circumstances, discretion favors obtaining a search warrant.
|
||||
This case appears to be the state of the law in Michigan today, but is
|
||||
subject to reversal by a superior court.
|
||||
|
||||
``Members having questions about this case are requested to contact the Legal
|
||||
Advisor Unit at Centrex 4-4426 or Police Dial 346.

FROM THE EDITOR:
|

|
||||
Ok, so here we are again. Another Edition of GLOBE TROTTER over and done with.
|
||||
This one took about 100 hours of work to put together and it's not as flash
|
||||
as the last one, but I'll make it up to you next time. I am saving the best
|
||||
for last.
|
||||
We have to do something about the hacking situation in this country.
|
||||
At the moment, it is all rather dismal, and I bet even mr Gill and the HACK
|
||||
WATCH gang are having nightmares. So please get into it, and remember if
|
||||
there are no hackers Mr GILL's Multi-million dollar security Company will
|
||||
go out of business. Since Bullshiting his clients is what he does best,
|
||||
how is he going to feed his family if there is no threat from us to combat?
|
||||
That's about all. I will see you on the networks and untill next time,
|
||||

||||
Catch Ya Later

OUTDIAL SYSTEMS
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The ANF VEN TEL outdial is still going strong, so untill it dies, I will not
|
||||
release another outdial with international capability. There are however a
|
||||
few more outdials I came a cross which you might like to have a look at.
|
||||
|
||||
The prompt it gives, is identical to the HOUSTON OUTDIAL PORT (Now Password
|
||||
Protected), which used to be a first class system, however I have not been able
|
||||
to get it to dial. I don't have all that much time to play with them, but
|
||||
if you can get them to work, please let me know.
|
||||
|
||||
NUA: 03106001892 Clearwater Outdial, In Florida
|
||||
NUA: 03106006180 Toronto Outdial
|
||||
|
||||
These two operate on identical systems so if you can get one to work, the
|
||||
other will follow. I have more NUA's to similar outdials so it would be
|
||||
nice to get them going.
|
||||

||||

|

UNUSUAL SYSTEMS
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
I promised you the NUA for ISE BBS, Instrumental Science Engineers Mob I
|
||||
think, but the NUA for this board has been going round for quite a while,
|
||||
and on top of that I can't find it, so look for it yourselves. It's on
|
||||
TELENET somewhere in the 6xx area I THINK.
|
||||
|
||||
311061400021 STN International - There are 2 good systems on this
|

|
||||
d - Ultrix Organic Chem BBS Login: newuser
|
||||
g - Unix, Login: guest
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That's about all for this issue. I'll see what I can dig up for the next one.

SYSTEM PASSWORDS
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
I have few Primenets, still in the USA and a Rather Nice VAX on PACNET
|
||||
New Zealand since we feature this rather small network this month.
|
||||
(Please note that when I say Rather Nice, I am speaking relativelly to
|
||||
The other accounts)
|
||||
|
||||
0530173000000 Forest Ministry VAX/VMS V4.6 Login: GUEST
|
||||
Notes: You will have to figure out for yourself how to crash
|
||||
out into DCL hehehe.
|
||||
|
||||
031106030002015 PRIMENET 18.2.1 A Dartmouth System Login: GAMES
|
||||
Notes: The Games Directory seems to be deleted so you may have
|
||||
problems, but the good thing about this prime is that it
|
||||
tells you whether an ID is valid or not before you enter
|
||||
the password, which makes things rather easy.
|
||||
|
||||
0311061700255 PRIMENET 20.2.3vR9.A PBN43 Login: TEST
|
||||
Notes: This is a tough son of a bitch to hack, but it will get
|
||||
you that one step closer.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the last primement I have in the USA, which I am going to publish
|
||||
in these here files so next month few more in Germany and ISRAEL, and then
|
||||
I'll make an assult on the UNIX, VAX and DG AOS/VS systems.

TRIX OF THE TRADE
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
DIALCOM PRIVACY
|
||||
|
||||
I am not sure who was the one that first told me about this, but it was most
|
||||
probabably the late TB1, god rest his soul. This is just a little bit
|
||||
different and I will not give you the full story since it would ruin it if
|
||||
everyone knew about it.
|
||||
On most systems running Primos, like MINERVA, if you are using an account and
|
||||
you don't want anyone else logging in at the same time, like the real user
|
||||
for example and finding what you are doing, simply do this.
|
||||
|
||||
>ED
|
||||
TYPE SYSTEM IS UNAVAILABLE AT THIS TIME
|
||||
COMO -N
|
||||
CHAT <ID> (or MESSAGE <ID> which ever works where ID is the ID you are on)
|
||||
LOG
|
||||
<CR>
|
||||
SAVE C_ID
|
||||
>
|
||||
|
||||
ok, just type what is above, ">" not included. it will create a file which
|
||||
will be executed automatically at login. >ED invokes the text editor,
|
||||
TYPE ..... will type that message so real user will not get worried. You
|
||||
can also say to call back in 5 minutes etc.
|
||||
COMO -N switches off the terminal, so that the person logging on can't see
|
||||
what happens from there.
|
||||
CHAT ID or MESSAGE ID, will send you a message, to inform you that another
|
||||
user has tried to log on. You can either not pay any attention if it happens
|
||||
to be another hacker, but if it's the real user, it's better to delete
|
||||
all traces of your presence and leave to call back after he has finished.
|
||||
OH YES, important! Please remember to delete the C_ID file before you
|
||||
leave or this will happen the next time you try to log on. if you happen to
|
||||
loose your account over this, please look me up, since there are things you
|
||||
can do I haven't told you about.

SPRINT VS SCAN
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
If you ever call a US board and mention to a local PHREAKER or HACKER that you
|
||||
have some NUA Sprints, he will have nothing but this blank expression on his
|
||||
face, with the words "HUH?" on his lips. (Stupid Yanks, they were the ones who
|
||||
invented the term in the first place). Let me tell you about the history of
|
||||
SPRINTING.
|
||||
|
||||
Once MA BELL was split up into a bunch of smaller phone companies to break
|
||||
her monopoly on the communications business, it all started. A company was
|
||||
formed called sprint. The US PHREAKS soon caught on to the fact that if they
|
||||
had a Sprint code, they could dial anywhere in the world free of charge.
|
||||
The sprint code is like a NUI for the DATA NETWORKS. It's just an account
|
||||
number to which the call gets billed, so if you happened to have a Sprint code,
|
||||
you were in business. To obtain such a code, they systematically scanned
|
||||
all possible number combinations till they got the right one. That became
|
||||
known as Sprinting. That is, ringing up SPRINT and Trying one combination
|
||||
after another. The term sprinting was adopted in Australia to mean
|
||||
systematically trying passwords, codes, numbers etc on any system. The
|
||||
term 'SPRINTING', has never caught much in the states where they refer to
|
||||
SCANNING and thus the confussion.
|
||||
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
DNICS
|
||||
~~~~~
|
||||
I scoured the various Databases kept by the various networks and compiled the
|
||||
following list. Note that not all DNICS can be accessed from all the networks,
|
||||
especially from Austpac or MIDAS, which don't cary data to a lot of the
|
||||
networks. For example: Calls to China can be made only via DATEX-P and some
|
||||
of the American Networks. (This could have been changed by now).
|
||||
To find out the individual data carrying contracts between the various
|
||||
networks, either check the various Online Dbases, or contact the network
|
||||
support. Contacts are given with each Network Profile.
|
||||
|
||||
I am still amazed why the people can't aggree on simple things such as DNICS

Network Name. In that case, I have listed all of the data supplied, and you

DATAPAC OUTDIALS
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
I know you are all sick of DATAPAC OUTDIALS, but they are usefull for dialing
|
||||
outside systems in Canada. Every outdial port on DATAPAC (Not Privatelly
|
||||
owned), services only a particular area, which explains why there are so many
|
||||
of them. (BUT DOES IT?, And Just how Many Are There?).
|
||||
The unusual thing you will find, is that outdials in a particular areas, are
|
||||
all password protected. Another thing is that from some outdials you can
|
||||
make calls to america. They were not designed for this, so I just imagine
|
||||
it's some kind of a fault with the outdial itself.
|
||||
|
||||
The following is the actual outdial list supplied by DATAPAC, intended for
|
||||
public use. It is only a small sample (about 1/20 of the total number)
|
||||
of what you will find in Volume #3.

Notes: The above is very useful, because it links DATAPAC NUA's
|
||||
with the geographical location. Datapac has a well defined area
|
||||
for all the NUA's, much like TELENET, but the only problem is that
|
||||
The area numbers of the NUA's don't match the PTSN Codes for the same
|
||||
area. If you can't follow that, get out the phone book and have a
|
||||
look at what I mean. More about that next month.

|
||||
PRIME GLORY
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
I am not ashamed to admit it, but PRIMES of any sorts are my favourite systems.
|
||||
I am absolutelly in love with the Netlink Gateway most of them have.
|
||||
It was my intention to publish a complete commands list for various versions
|
||||
of primos, namelly PRIMENET and DIALCOM, however the files are rather big
|
||||
and not much use to many hackers so I'll leave them out. Anyone who needs
|
||||
such a command list, just search the directories of the prime you are using,
|
||||
since there is a good chance the file is there. Some PRIMENETS have the
|
||||
file displayed when you type HELP. If you can't find it, then just refer to
|
||||
the FORCE FILES, where you will find a DIALCOM and PRIMENET (some dicky
|
||||
version) Command lists.
|
||||
Oh, you don't know what a FORCE FILE is?
|
||||
Well, I'll be refering to them quite a bit for additional information. In any
|
||||
case this is the story:
|
||||
Aproximatelly half a year ago, I got really pissed off with hacking, the
|
||||
atitude of people and things in general. A sort of a depp reaction triggered
|
||||
by a particular person. Basically I decided to give up hacking all together.
|
||||
Last thing I did was write the FORCE FILES which contained a lot of the
|
||||
info I accumulated over the last few years. The files are nothing briliant,
|
||||
but I will be refering to them quite a bit for additional information from
|
||||
time to time which I don't want to repeat in GLOBE TROTTER. One other
|
||||
thing to note, is that the NUA lists in the FORCE FILES were more edited and
|
||||
rather outdated by now.
|
||||
Now you know about force files, oh yes the reason I got back into hacking
|
||||
few weeks later is rather obvious to anyone who has been addicted to anything.
|
||||
|
||||
Now Back to primes. Primenets in particular are not the easiest to hack, but
|
||||
like most systems they have their faults. Old versions, particularly the
|
||||
ones using Primos revision 17.something and 18. something actually tell you
|
||||
whether a USERNAME is valid before you are asked for a password. This
|
||||
simplifies things a lot, but it's not so easy with the later versions.
|
||||
Oh yes, the only place you are going to find versions 17.4 and lower are
|
||||
countries like BRAZIL etc, which thanx to THE WIZARD you will see in a few
|
||||
months time. On these primitive versions, one could often type a username,
|
||||
and when asked for a password press CTRL-C and be dumped passed login into
|
||||
primos. Nifty No?
|
||||
The current versions are little bit harder to hack and the only way I think
|
||||
is with inside information or if the defaults are intact. Primes like VAX's
|
||||
come with a number of standard Usernames, which the sys opers are known to
|
||||
leave as is. some of the common defaults you can try are:
|
||||
|
||||
DEMO/DEMO, SYSTEM/SYSTEM, PRIME/PRIME, GAMES/GAMES, DOS/DOS, TEST/TEST
|
||||
TEST/PRIME, BATCH/BATCH, NETMAN etc.
|
||||
|
||||
I was actually going to publish a listing of all the primenets I have in all my
|
||||
sprints, but then I realised the horror of going through all the 100+ files
|
||||
and picking out the primes. I think it will be better just to give you all
|
||||
the Sprints and you can pick out the primes for yourselves. If you are
|
||||
looking for a place to find a lot of primes, I can recomend BRAZIL, and
|
||||
JAPAN, where the percentage of primes vs other systems is rather high.
|
||||
|
||||
As far as Sprinting goes, all of the sprints were done using the NETLINK
|
||||
gateway. It's the only way of doing it. Well, Scanning from a VAX has
|
||||
it's advantages in that you can more easilly set it up as a batch job
|
||||
and have it running while you're not online. This is also possible with
|
||||
Primes, if you have phantom privs, but I haven't found a way to disconnect
|
||||
from a NUA other than timeout if it connects. It is still great for
|
||||
exploring new networks, where all you need is but one NUA to guess the
|
||||
NUA structure. Another possibility would be a scanner written in CPL,
|
||||
but that is beyond me at the moment, and the only one I have seen didn't
|
||||
work all that well.
|
||||
You will find a copy of the Primos Sprinter in the Force Files, but the
|
||||
new version of the program I will not be releacing. With the New version,
|
||||
you can hook up two primes in parallel, and if both have a reasonably large
|
||||
number of outgoing ports, you can achieve very fast scanning speeds. The
|
||||
fastest I have managed so far is something like 500 NUA's a second. The only
|
||||
problem is that you need very fast host responces to do it. It works lets say
|
||||
from MIDAS scanning MIDAS NUA's or PACNET NUA's, but it is impossible to
|
||||
achieve this efficincy scanning TELENET from MIDAS for example. I assume
|
||||
there is a dedicated line between MIDAS and PACNET which gives you the
|
||||
instant responce since no other switching is involved.
|
||||
|
||||
The last thing I want to talk about is DIALCOM sytems. They also run Primos
|
||||
and are quite fun as long as they have NETLINK. I will explain them in more
|
||||
detail in a couple of months time.

Notes: At first I thought The NUA structure was that of TELENET ie the
|
||||
first one listed and as such, the entire sprint has been done to that
|
||||
format. However, because of the small number of systems that have been
|
||||
found and only in some cities, I now believe that the local phone
|
||||
exchange is also used in the NUA. As such it makes it uneconomical
|
||||
to Sprint therefore you will have to live with the following list.

So here we are, the end of another file. There was nothing here as far as
|
||||
NUA's go, but I have been working flat out on DATAPAC which has got massive
|
||||
ammounts of NUA's so I'll try to get that completed. The first part of
|
||||
DATAPAC will be in GLOBE TROTTER Volume #3. From there on, the ammount of
|
||||
information will decrease due to the lack of NUI'S and other PRIME accounts.
|
||||
|
||||
A passionate plea: If anyone has NUI'S AUSTPAC ones in particular and
|
||||
any primes with Netlink, please let me know, perhaps
|
||||
we can make an exchange for info you are not likelly to
|
||||
see here.
|
||||
|
||||
Lastly, if anyone has any articles or information they would like to
|
||||
contribute, please contact me. We will all appreciate it, especially me,

<P>
|

Greeny World Domination answers the question of what they are in their own FAQ:
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<PRE>
|
||||
Q: What is this whole GwD thing, anyway?
|
||||
A: GwD is a paramilitary fanatical political activist group dedicated to
|
||||
making GREENY, son of the goddess Grene, Emperor of the world.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: So are you political or religious?
|
||||
A: We're pseudo-political AND quasi-religious. After all, politics and
|
||||
religion are the same thing. Pray to the President and vote for God.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: What do you do?
|
||||
A: We publish an e-zine and we raise hell. We used to write stupid programs,
|
||||
but we quit. Basically, we plan for world Domination and we have fun doing
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Are you better than me?
|
||||
A: Yes, unless you're in GwD.
|
||||
</PRE>
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Having said that, the files range on all sorts of subjects, and have
|
||||
that common trait among long-lived groups: They start to take most anything
|
||||
after the first few years. Worth a dive.

<P>
|

Greeny World Domination answers the question of what they are in their own FAQ:
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
<PRE>
|
||||
Q: What is this whole GwD thing, anyway?
|
||||
A: GwD is a paramilitary fanatical political activist group dedicated to
|
||||
making GREENY, son of the goddess Grene, Emperor of the world.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: So are you political or religious?
|
||||
A: We're pseudo-political AND quasi-religious. After all, politics and
|
||||
religion are the same thing. Pray to the President and vote for God.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: What do you do?
|
||||
A: We publish an e-zine and we raise hell. We used to write stupid programs,
|
||||
but we quit. Basically, we plan for world Domination and we have fun doing
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Are you better than me?
|
||||
A: Yes, unless you're in GwD.
|
||||
</PRE>
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Having said that, the files range on all sorts of subjects, and have
|
||||
that common trait among long-lived groups: They start to take most anything
|
||||
after the first few years. Worth a dive.

-+- The GwD Fifth Anniversary Party -+-
|
||||
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
THE FIVE Ws of GwaDFest98 (all of these are further elaborated upon below):
|
||||
|
||||
WHO: WE are throwing a party and YOU are invited.
|
||||
WHAT: The FIFTH ANNIVERSARY of GwD
|
||||
WHEN: GwD turns FIVE on June 10, 1998. A small-scale party will be
|
||||
held for the elite dr00gs on that date. We'll most likely just \
|
||||
drink highballs and go to the titty bar. But, a kick-ass
|
||||
mutha-fuckin' par-tay will be held on June 19, 1998 (true to
|
||||
form, we've procrastinated and this announcement is being
|
||||
released only 10 days before the shindig, most likely assuring
|
||||
low attendance of almost entirely local dr00gs).
|
||||
open to the general public. So come on out and bring a friend.
|
||||
WHERE: Marduk's house.
|
||||
WHY: GwD is FIVE. It's also a chance to meet and mingle with fellow
|
||||
dr00gs and dr00gettes. Aww yeah.
|
||||
HOW: Take a bus, take a train, go and hop an aero-plane. Walk for
|
||||
all I care...but you MUST be in attendance at the party, or
|
||||
there will be hell to pay. Green Hell. And I'm not talking
|
||||
about the Misfits' song, either.
|
||||
|
||||
<Explanation: A slight change in plans.>
|
||||
|
||||
We would have had the party on June 10 (which was the original plan), but due to
|
||||
unforeseen circumstances in the personal lives of high-ranking GwD-Officials, it
|
||||
has been postponed until June 19 and a smaller party will be held for just the
|
||||
GwD big-wigs on June 10, 1998. Besides, the tenth is a WEDNESDAY, and who wants
|
||||
to party on WEDNESDAY? Wednesday is HUMP day, a day for what its name implies.
|
||||
So don't fret about the slight change in plans.
|
||||
|
||||
= WHO =
|
||||
|
||||
Invitors: The GwD High Council has been planning this event for months. Maybe.
|
||||
Invitees: Anyone who receives this as an e-mail or sees this on the web is
|
||||
hereby invited. Bring a friend or five.
|
||||
|
||||
= WHAT =
|
||||
|
||||
This will be the party to end all parties. We hope. Of course, the party is
|
||||
BYOB and BYODF (Bring Your Own Damn Food). Bring other stuff if you must, but
|
||||
please observe MODERATION because it's not our job to drive your drunk-ass home
|
||||
and we sure as hell don't want anyone getting arrested. Basically, it'll be a
|
||||
nice little gathering with an on-going, multi-authored text file being written
|
||||
by those in attendance, courtesy of STM's laptop (a concept we're blatantly
|
||||
ripping off from the DummerCon files by our pals over at doomed to obscurity).
|
||||
|
||||
Come for the fellowship, stay for the entertainment:
|
||||
|
||||
SEE the mighty HORSE IMPRESSION of Lobo Licious!
|
||||
SEE the awesome THUMB-TWIDDLING of Seth The Man!
|
||||
HEAR the TRUMPET SRYLINGS of Diamondback!
|
||||
SEE and HEAR the rantings of PREACHER/PIRATE Yancey Slide!
|
||||
SEE Bob the Master of the World BREAK THINGS while drunk!
|
||||
SEE the dr00gan wimmen in a MUD-WRESTLING EXTRAVAGANZA!
|
||||
(We still have to get them to agree to that last one.)
|
||||
FEEL the AWESOME PRESENCE that IS Bill Hooper! (if he's not in India)
|
||||
|
||||
Bring your own unique talents or just bring your favorite GwD Propaganda for the
|
||||
AUTOGRAPH SESSION which will follow the INVOCATION of GRENE!
|
||||
|
||||
= WHEN =
|
||||
|
||||
The affair will take place in the evening of June 19, 1998. Be there.
|
||||
Or don't.
|
||||
|
||||
= WHERE =
|
||||
|
||||
Marduk's house. Marduk is Diamondback's cousin. He lives on a farm. He has no
|
||||
nearby neighbors. We can have a loud drunken orgy! YAY!
|
||||
|
||||
(See "HOW" below for directions.)
|
||||
|
||||
= WHY =
|
||||
|
||||
Because Grene commands it. Don't fuck with the Goddess.
|
||||
|
||||
= HOW =
|
||||
|
||||
E-mail Seth The Man (seththeman@cyberdude.com) for directions to Marduk's
|
||||
swingin' pad.
|
||||
|
||||

In 1996 GwD plans to reinstitute its monthly gathering policy. Here are *very*
|
||||
tentative plans for gatherings and dates if they're known. Other dates will be
|
||||
set closer to the actual time.
|
||||
|
||||
January - Beginning of spring semester party thing.
|
||||
February 14 - Valentine's Day. Redd's Holiday. Get together and boycott it.
|
||||
March - Spring Break. Week long party. Heh. Miniature golf one night, really.
|
||||
April - Venture out to the S00PER-D00PER store(s), K-Mart and/or Wal-Mart.
|
||||
May - End of school. Celebration of graduation and penetration. Yeah.
|
||||
June - Go out for pizza. A classic GwD get-together.
|
||||
July - Hellraiser marathon. The ORIGINAL GwD GATHERING. A must for all droogs.
|
||||
August - End of summer party-thing. Yay.
|
||||
September - Star Wars marathon. Another classic.
|
||||
October 31 - Halloween. Trick-or-treat-ing? Talk to Lobo.
|
||||
November - Thanksgiving. Get together and thank Grene for k-neat stuff.
|
||||
December - Xmas Fest! (Also go to HoHoCon, if you can, if there is one.)
|
||||
|
||||
(All dates and "themes" subject to change without notice, though we'll probably
|
||||
let you know cuz you're so damn special.)
|
||||

These dates are really tentative, except the first one. (It's not tentative for
|

obvious reasons.) Question marks signify that we don't know exactly which files
|

|

Another note about releases: there will be no releases if there aren't
|
||||
submissions. That isn't to say that GwD will die (it won't). It's just that
|
||||
I never again want to release files like 24-29 that I'm not especially proud of
|
||||
that were written just to have files. Please submit, even if it's crap. I most
|
||||
likely won't publish it if it's crap, but submit it anyway. No song lyrics
|
||||
(that was a dumbass idea of mine) or stupid transcriptions of comedy acts (thank
|
||||
Grene I never was desperate enough to publish THAT submission). Poetry is
|
||||
accepted, but only if it's really good. Yeah. Ain't I a bitch? Thanks in
|
||||
advance for any submissions.

Frequently Posed Queries
|
||||
|
||||
Q=Query -+- A=Answer
|
||||
|
||||
Q: What is this whole GwD thing, anyway?
|
||||
A: GwD is a paramilitary fanatical political activist group dedicated to
|
||||
making GREENY, son of the goddess Grene, Emperor of the world.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: So are you political or religious?
|
||||
A: We're pseudo-political AND quasi-religious. After all, politics and
|
||||
religion are the same thing. Pray to the President and vote for God.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: What do you do?
|
||||
A: We publish an e-zine and we raise hell. We used to write stupid programs,
|
||||
but we quit. Basically, we plan for world Domination and we have fun doing
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Who's Grene? I've never heard of her.
|
||||
A: Grene is the Goddess of all that is green and good. Read _The Book of
|
||||
KeyLime_.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Are you better than me?
|
||||
A: Yes, unless you're in GwD.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Who's in GwD now?
|
||||
A: There is no longer a comprehensive list of members because there are so
|
||||
many. Anyway, the dr00gs (as members are called) don't matter much anyway,
|
||||
Unless they have their GwD membership cards, which only a few do. The real
|
||||
power lies with the Propagandists (those who write for us):
|
||||
Yancey Slide (formerly Spanky McDougal, Sir!)
|
||||
Sir Flea
|
||||
Zippy
|
||||
Aracnia
|
||||
Zen
|
||||
Trojan-Man
|
||||
fastjack
|
||||
Bill Hooper
|
||||
Lasher
|
||||
Mogel
|
||||
Izzy (the only Propagandist who earned the title for
|
||||
something other than writing - he is our resident
|
||||
graphics man)
|
||||
K2
|
||||
Carson
|
||||
and the GwD High Council, comprised of the Type of Guys
|
||||
Top Worshipper Type of Guy- Lobo
|
||||
Top Dog Type of Guy- Seth The Man
|
||||
Top Organizer Type of Guy- Ratt Fink
|
||||
Worshipper Type of Guy- Diamondback
|
||||
Dog Type of Guy- TransDerm-Nitro
|
||||
Organizer Type of Guy- The Lizard King
|
||||
who (with the exception of Ratt Fink and TransDerm) are all Propagandists
|
||||
as well. fastjack is the leader of GwD military forces and GenAerik is
|
||||
head of all Special Forces.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Do members get special priveleges?
|
||||
A: Yes, after we assume control, all members will comprise the GwD Council
|
||||
which will handle the day-to-day ruling of the world. Also, there's a
|
||||
health plan. If you write for us, you are eligible for our dental plan.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Your handles don't mean anything to me. Who are you *really*?
|
||||
A: Really? We're just a bunch of high school and/or college geeks who have
|
||||
no respective lives so we've come together and we share a collective one.
|
||||
The High Council rotates possession of it. Lobo gets it on Mondays, STM
|
||||
gets it Tuesdays, and so on. Sunday, it is thrown to whatever Propagandist
|
||||
has written most recently.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Why should I join, other than the special priveleges?
|
||||
A: Men: Chicks dig guys in GwD. Ladies: You will learn all about Grene's
|
||||
sex-magic that will drive any man insane with lust for you. Everybody:
|
||||
the time for world Domination is now...reserve your seat on the Revolution
|
||||
Roller-Coaster NOW!
|
||||
|
||||
Q: How do I join?
|
||||
A: Either e-mail Lobo or send mail to our P.O. Box (listed at the end of this
|
||||
file) containing one American dollar for your neato-keen membership card.
|
||||
You should probably give your name, as well.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: How do I e-mail Lobo?
|
||||
A: Lobo can be reached at an47751@anon.pent.fi.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Why should I care what Lobo's e-mail address is?
|
||||
A: He's the editor. Submit to him. Submit articles for the 'zine, that is.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: How do I get copies of GwD - the 'zine, of course, not the group itself?
|
||||
A: They're available on several BBSes (called Command Centers) and on a few
|
||||
ftp sites. You can write to the P.O. Box and get the issues on disk for
|
||||
a small fee. While you're at it, why not send an SASE and get our mail
|
||||
order catalog. It's chock full of k00l stuff like audio tapes, video
|
||||
tapes, tee-shirts, membership cards, and even stickers.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Why should I listen to you about anything?
|
||||
A: Because we are the self-proclaimed authorities on everything. You will
|
||||
submit to our will, or we will crush your skull beneath the heels of our
|
||||
mighty boots like we do with the other infidels.
|
||||
|
||||
Q: What does "Fight The Power" mean?
|
||||
A: The "Power" is whatever's in charge. The slogan is left over from our
|
||||
blatant anti-governmental days. Basically, it just sounds cool. It's
|
||||
sort of a bastardization of "Question Authority", which sounds kinda cool
|
||||
too. Hmmm....
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Who the hell do you think you are, anyway?
|
||||
A: We're GwD. Stoopid.

The Story of GREENY
|
||||
by Lobo
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
One day in Lubbock, TX not so long ago, Susan "Yellowie" Hagstrom was
|
||||
sitting in her house doing the dishes when her boyfriend, James "Blewie"
|
||||
Allen, happened by. Yellowie was shocked because her parents would *NEVER*
|
||||
approve of her having a boy in the house, even if they were home, which they
|
||||
were'nt. Blewie (I know it's not spelled like the color) took advantage of
|
||||
her surprise, and shebecame pregnant. If you want to know the juicy details
|
||||
of how: you're sick!! Nine months later, they had a son, who they named, you
|
||||
guessed it, Jacob Allen! But, little did they know at this point that their
|
||||
pride n' joy would some day become Emperor of the World.
|
||||
GREENY, as he soon came to be called for obvious reasons, had a wonderful
|
||||
childhood. He smiled! He laughed! He sat up by himself! He ate solid food!
|
||||
He even shit his drawers! And these steps only took him the first twelve
|
||||
years of his life! He then entered junior high, and had a relatively
|
||||
uneventful seventh grade year. But, eighth grade was a different story. For
|
||||
Christmas that year, he received a computer and a modem! But, not just any
|
||||
computer and modem, a brand new Mac Plus, and a top of the line 2400 baud
|
||||
modem! By Valentine's Day, he had learned some numbers to some local BBSes.
|
||||
One of the first he called was Chaos (806-797-7501). He chatted with the
|
||||
sysop, Seth The Man, when Lobo happened to be there abouts. The Main Man
|
||||
chatted with GREENY as well, and learned some interesting things: 1. that
|
||||
GREENY went to Frenship J.H.S.; and 2. that he was in the honor choir there.
|
||||
Needless to say, Lobo was impressed. Lobo and Seth The Man return to our
|
||||
story later.
|
||||
A month later, at about St. Patrick's Day, GREENY put up his first
|
||||
k-k00l Mac board, which was known as Mac Mayhem. He posted ads for it in all
|
||||
CAPS on every sub of every board in town. But, sadly, we lost Mac Mayhem a
|
||||
few weeks later. Undaunted, GREENY tried again. This time it was THE
|
||||
UNDERGROUND, an all teen BBS. He again posted ads in all CAPS (only the great
|
||||
ones use all CAPS), but this time he posted his NUP, which was SMARTONE, in
|
||||
his ads, but no one was supposed to tell anyone. THE UNDERGROUND went down a
|
||||
few weeks later, a terrible loss to the BBS community. GREENY tried again
|
||||
with The Weather Board. It gave weather stats for all of the areas around
|
||||
Lubbock. The Weather Board was even more short-lived than it's predecessors,
|
||||
and we lost it soon after it went up. (Sob, Sob!) GREENY changed his handle
|
||||
to Cosmic Thing, but he's still GREENY as far as GwD is concerned. He put up
|
||||
another k-rad Mac board called Channel "Z", and again there were ads just
|
||||
about everywhere. This time, to get people to call his board, he even added
|
||||
war3z and c0d3z to his board to get people to call.
|
||||
Their was a discussion about GREENY on Chaos, and Lobo decided that
|
||||
GREENY should become Emperor of the World, and with the help of Seth The Man,
|
||||
set up a sub to be the "newsletter" for the newly christened GREENY world
|
||||
DOMINATION Task Force, a group whose only goal is to make GREENY become the
|
||||
Emperor of the World. Lobo heads this organization, and the ranks are
|
||||
displayed in GwD01.txt.
|
||||
Anyone wishing to join GwD should e-mail Lobo with the NDP (New Droog
|
||||
Password) which is SMARTONE, but don't tell anyone what it is! GREENY for
|
||||
Emperor!!!!
|
||||
|
||||
note- This story is a fictional adaptation of GREENY's life. Though the main
|
||||
points are the same, it should probably not be taken as the truth, though, I'm
|
||||
not going to stop you if you want it to be the truth.

"War: A Costly Way to Solve a Problem"
|
||||
by Lobo
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The following paragraphs contain a brief synopsis of all of the wars (to
|
||||
my knowledge) that the United States has ever participated in. I'm sorry if I
|
||||
leave one out. All of the statements come from memory, so please forgive me
|
||||
if I make an error. There are also statements of personal opinion involved,
|
||||
so if you don't agree, then kindly disregard them.
|
||||
First came the Revolutionary War (my history teacher likes to call it
|
||||
"The War for Independence" like that justifies all of the lives that were
|
||||
lost). We fought it to gain our independence from England (or Great Britain,
|
||||
or whatever the hell you want to call it). Our army was poorly trained, so we
|
||||
lost quite a few soldiers to more experienced British troops. However, they
|
||||
marched in straight lines and red coats, so it was not at all hard for our
|
||||
snipers to eliminate many of them as well. A nice game of chess may have
|
||||
solved the problem, and it certainly would've saved thousands of lives.
|
||||
Then came the War of 1812. It seems that the British Navy was impressing,
|
||||
or taking hostage, our sailors and forcing them to work on English
|
||||
ships. So, we passed the Embargo Act to not trade with Britain until they
|
||||
stopped, which only hurt our country. Many people on both sides of this
|
||||
conflict died, and the war didn't even really accomplish anything. The
|
||||
British were supposed to withdraw all of their forces from North America, but
|
||||
the U.S. Army could hardly back that up. Also, the British were to stop
|
||||
impressing our sailors, but our Navy was no match for theirs, so we couldn't
|
||||
enforce that either. Basically, conditions returned to the way they were
|
||||
before the war.
|
||||
The Mexican War came next. It basically happened because of the
|
||||
annexation of Texas. Mexico got pissed off because we annexed Texas when
|
||||
Mexico did not consider Texas to be independent, even though it had been
|
||||
independent for quite some time. Anyway, many people, both Mexican and
|
||||
American, died and all we got out of it was some land (Colorado, Arizona,
|
||||
etc.). Kind of silly if you ask me.
|
||||
Next, we had The Civil War, or as my history teacher called it, "The War
|
||||
Between the States." Whatever you call it, it was a bloody war where the dead
|
||||
of both sides were American. The purpose of this war was to make the South
|
||||
realize that it couldn't do what it wanted, like have slaves, etc. Though the
|
||||
North "won" the war (there are only degrees of losing in a war) and freed the
|
||||
slaves, the South was treated as conquered territory, and even now, more than
|
||||
125 years later after the war's end, blacks are still persecuted in some parts
|
||||
of the country.
|
||||
In the late 1800's/early 1900's, came the Spanish-American War. I'm not
|
||||
too sure of the reasons behind this war, but the U.S. defeated the Spanish and
|
||||
made them give up all of their colonies, but only after thousands of Spaniard
|
||||
and American soldiers and sailors had perished.
|
||||
World War I came in the nine-teen teens, because some German guy
|
||||
assassinated some prince, and the Austrio-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman
|
||||
Empire involved themselves in a bloody war that was the first to use aircraft.
|
||||
Soon, all of Europe was taking sides in the conflict, and inevitably, a few
|
||||
years later, the United States entered the war. The allies of the U.S.
|
||||
(France, England, etc.) were known as The Allies, and the Allied forces
|
||||
defeated the enemy with much loss of life in the militaries of both sides.
|
||||
Germany and its allies received penalties like no army, strict trade
|
||||
regulations, etc.
|
||||
An Austrian named Adolf Hitler rose to power in Germany by somehow
|
||||
convincing the people that foreigners in general and Jews in particular were
|
||||
the cause of all of Germany's problems. What a crock of shit. Hitler's
|
||||
political party, the Nazis, rounded up young men to serve in the army. The
|
||||
army gathered and forced millions of Jews into concentration camps, where some
|
||||
were used as slave laborers, and between 3 and 6 million were executed.
|
||||
Meanwhile, Germany invade Poland, and the other nations of the world loooked
|
||||
the other way. Then, Italy and Japan joined forces with Germany in the Axis
|
||||
Pact. France and Britain had had enough by this point, and they decalred war
|
||||
on Germany. Together, Germany and Italy conquered all of Europe except for
|
||||
Engalnd (it's on an island) and Switzerland. Japan attacked the United States
|
||||
so we could not help our allies in Europe. Allied forces stormed the beach at
|
||||
Normandy, France as Russian forces entered Eastern European countries that
|
||||
were under Nazi occupation. They liberated concentration camps as they went,
|
||||
but were too late for many Jews. The forces met in Berlin, and Hitler killed
|
||||
himself when Allied forces were three blocks away. Gemany formally
|
||||
surrendered shortly afterwards. With the European threat vanquished, the
|
||||
Allies could turn their full attention to Japan. Japan held up a while
|
||||
longer, but when the U.S. dropped two atomic bombs on two major Japanese
|
||||
cities, Japan finally surrendered, only after millions of servicemen and
|
||||
civilians lost their lives for their cause. Putting Hitler in prison or a
|
||||
mental asylum in the beginning would have spared the world all of that
|
||||
bloodshed.
|
||||
Then came the "Korean Conflict". North Korea was taken over by
|
||||
communists, and the South did not want to convert. The United States entered
|
||||
the conflict on the side of the South because they had to "keep the world safe
|
||||
for democrcy." The South never fell, and the North withdrew, after thousands
|
||||
had died on both sides of this conflict.
|
||||
Vietnam came next. France was already involved in Vietnam (it had been a
|
||||
French colony), but it withdrew its forces shortly after the United States
|
||||
became involved in the "Police Action" (as it was in Korea, Congress never
|
||||
declared war in Vietnam, but whan that many people die in battle, it's a war).
|
||||
Northern attacks, failed (and succeeded) Southern attacks into Northern
|
||||
territory, and terrorism by the Viet Cong, a group of Southern Vietnamese
|
||||
loyal to the North, killed hundreds of thousands of service-men (and
|
||||
service-women) to die. Finally, after about 10 years, the United States
|
||||
withdrew its troops from Vietnam, and the South fell shortly afterward.
|
||||
Panama came late in 1989. We invaded a country that is not much bigger
|
||||
than Lubbock County to arrest the dictator who had supposedly been smuggling
|
||||
illegal drugs into the U.S., Manuel Noriega. Our losses were few, but
|
||||
hundreds of Panamanian troops and civilians died in the invasion.
|
||||
Then in 1990 came "Operation Desert Storm" or as the media liked to call
|
||||
it "The War in the Gulf." Iraq had invaded and annexed its neighbor, Kuwait.
|
||||
The United Nations passed resolutions which failed to get through to the Iraqi
|
||||
government. So, on January 16, 1990, the combined air forces of the U.N.,
|
||||
operating out of Saudi Arabia, started an air assault on Iraq, and
|
||||
particularly its capital, Baghdad. Late in February, a ground force led by
|
||||
U.S. troops entered Kuwait and took back the capital, Kuwait City, in four
|
||||
hours. All of Kuwait was liberated in a few days. Many people died in the
|
||||
battles of this war.
|
||||
Last week, the United Statesfired 23 missiles at Iraq. The reason given
|
||||
was that the Iraqi government may or may not have had a hand in several
|
||||
assassination attempts on former-President George Bush when he visited Kuwait
|
||||
last April. Another war with Iraq may be on the horizon. I hope not.
|
||||

||||
This file is dedicated to all of the men and women that have lost their lives
|
||||
in armed conflict.

"Rex et son ami Louis"
|
||||
by Lobo
|
||||
|
||||
This story is about Rex et son ami Louis, or Rex and his friend Louis. I
|
||||
took the names from to prominent figures in my church's conference, one was
|
||||
the Bishop, the other is the District Superintendent. I dislike them both
|
||||
because they messed with my church. But, that's another story. These guys
|
||||
are in no way meant to represent the real Rex and Louis. Enjoy!
|
||||
One day, Rex was walking down the street. He was joined by his friend
|
||||
Louis. They decided to rob a convenience store. So, they stole their wives'
|
||||
panty hose and put it on over their heads. of course, they had to take it off
|
||||
of their wives first, if you know what i mean. <G>. Then, they stole their
|
||||
sons' water machine guns. Now they were ready.
|
||||
They approached the store with calculated effort. They entered. It was
|
||||
a standard 7-11 with gas tanks outside and only one attendant. They pulled on
|
||||
the panty hose so that no one could see their faces, and Rex told the
|
||||
attendant to give them all the money in the store, while Louis removed
|
||||
wallets, purses, jewelry, etc. from the customers and threatened to shoot them
|
||||
with his water gun if they didn't stay down. Rex got the money from the
|
||||
attendant, and then he told her that she had a nice ass as he felt it. Louis
|
||||
pushed the muzzle of his "gun" into the back of a woman that had been crying.
|
||||
Then, he spanked her to give her something to cry about.
|
||||
Rex and Louis then got drunk on wine coolers that were in the store's
|
||||
refrigerator. Then, Jim who had just come to the store for some milk duds
|
||||
entered. Seeing the masked men with machine guns, he left hastily. A moment
|
||||
later, he re-entered, but not as Jim. No, this time he was 'The Crusader from
|
||||
Beyond'!
|
||||
Let me tell you about 'The Crusader from Beyond'. He came to earth from
|
||||
another dimension. He has the standard super hero powers (i.e.- heat rays,
|
||||
strength, etc.), the only problem is that he doesn't know how to use them. He
|
||||
is invulnerable to everything but bullets (go to his dimension to find out
|
||||
why). 'The Crusader from Beyond' also has quite a dirty mouth, cussing almost
|
||||
every sentence.
|
||||
'The Crusader from Beyond' said to Rex and Louis, "You assholes wanna
|
||||
mess with a store in my town? Bring it on, faggots!" They shot at him, but
|
||||
it was with water guns, so they had no luck. He walked over and tied them
|
||||
up. He then had his way with the clerk and all other females in the store,
|
||||
regardless of age. There was a 76 year old grandmother and her five year old
|
||||
granddaughter. "Just taking my payment for saving your lives," he said.
|
||||
You probably think that I meant sex by 'he then had his way'. Well,
|
||||
you're wrong. In his dimension, 'had his way' means something completely
|
||||
different. It basically meant that he licked all of the toe jam out from
|
||||
their feet and then sucked out their belly button lent through a straw.
|
||||
Then he summoned the police, who wanted to know who had tied them up. No
|
||||
one knew because the hero had left just after he made the telephone call. The
|
||||
police also wondered what happened to the money. No one knew that either.
|
||||
Jim had a new car the next week, though.
|
||||
The moral of this story is: if you're gonna mess with 'The Crusader from
|
||||
Beyond', you better use bullets.<G>

NOTE: Seth and I have gotten some criticism regarding these files, so I would
|

like to remind everyone that the purpose of these files is to have fun (for us
|
||||
and the readers) and sometimes to inform you. If one person gets anything
|
||||
from any of these files, I am satisfied.
|
||||
Some say that these files are a ripoff of cDc. We do not believe that
|
||||
they are, and we do not wish to take anything from cDc. There are many series
|
||||
of text files that start out with a false premise. The first few are about
|
||||
that, and then other text files are written that have nothing to do with the
|
||||
title of the series. Every once in a while (it will be every ten files for
|
||||
us) there is an update on the original topic. That is the format that GwD
|
||||
will use.

"Poor School Districts"
|
||||
by Lobo
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you live in Texas, you have probably heard all of the crap about
|
||||
public school re-financing. This file is not about which of the proposed
|
||||
plans is better for our schools. It is about the fact that some school
|
||||
districts don't need any more money, they need to learn how to spend what they
|
||||
already have.
|
||||
I live in Lubbock, TX, and I go to school in the Lubbock Independent
|
||||
School Ditrict (LISD). For years, I have heard about the financial problems
|
||||
of other school districts in our state. There are many proposed plans to take
|
||||
money that would go to the 'rich' school districts and give it to the 'poor'
|
||||
school districts. LISD, I believe, is somewhere in the middle, between the
|
||||
two classifications. The most popular re-financing plan is known as the
|
||||
'Robin Hood Plan' (stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, quite a
|
||||
cliche). I just wanted to acquaint you with the situation in the state public
|
||||
school system.
|
||||
At my school, I am on the UIL Math and Science team. We go to other
|
||||
schools on some saturdays, take some tests, and basically have fun running
|
||||
around, causing trouble, then lying about who we are and which school we're
|
||||
from. It's lots of fun. There were sixteen on the team from my school, two
|
||||
from the seventh and fourteen from the eighth grade. Both of the seventh
|
||||
graders and five of the eighth graders qualified to go to the state
|
||||
competition in San Antonio. One seventh grader and one eighth grader could
|
||||
not go. The other seventh grader subbed for his counterpart, while another
|
||||
eighth grader subbed for her's. I was one of the eighth graders who got to
|
||||
attend the competition.
|
||||
One Friday, we all met at school as usual, only we brought the stuff we
|
||||
would need at the competition and the stuff we would need for an overnight
|
||||
trip. After lunch, we piled in to the Algebra teacher's van and headed for
|
||||
the airport. We met two students from another school in our district and
|
||||
their teacher at the airport. One of the students from the other school's
|
||||
mother went along. We flew (on Southwest) to Dallas, had a twenty-minute
|
||||
layover there, and went on to San Antonio. The school district payed for the
|
||||
flight. We left the San Antonio airport in a van that the teacher had rented
|
||||
(the Algebra teacher and the teacher from the other school were both with us),
|
||||
even though LISD was paying the bill. We then drove to The Windham Hotel,
|
||||
where we got three rooms. One for seventh and eighth grade girls/female
|
||||
teacher/male seventh grader's mother. One for seventh grade guys/male
|
||||
teacher. One four all four eighth grade guys. No one wanted to sleep in the
|
||||
same bed. I got a bed, another guy got the other bed, one guy slept on the
|
||||
floor, and the other guy slept on the chairs (don't ask how). Anyway, we got
|
||||
up at five in the morning on Saturday, and went downstairs in the hotel. I
|
||||
saw the bill, and the rooms were each a hundred dollars. LISD payed for them.
|
||||
They gave us money for meals, $2.00 for breakfast and lunch, and $5.00
|
||||
for the evening meal. After Saturday breakfast, it was off to the
|
||||
competition. We could only take the test that we qualified in, so i only got
|
||||
to take one. Some people took all four that were offered, some took three, so
|
||||
I think that the average is about two tests to a person. After the tests, we
|
||||
wasted about a whole tank of gas going to the San Antonio mall and returning
|
||||
to where the competition was being held. Only two of our people placed, one
|
||||
getting third place in number sense, and the other getting second place in
|
||||
math. Then, it was back to the airport.
|
||||
We flew home, and arrived at Lubbock International airport at about 11:00
|
||||
pm on Saturday. I had fun on the trip, I'm not saying that I didn't. What I
|
||||
am saying is that LISD probably spent around $1000 flying us all to San
|
||||
Antonio and back for a competition where we didn't even really do very good.
|
||||
Even though the one guy's mom payed for herself, that is a lot of money. I
|
||||
got a weekend trip to San Antonio for about ten bucks, which is what I spent
|
||||
at the mall. I just think that maybe LISD should spend their money on things
|
||||
that are really needed, like text books that weren't written before I was
|
||||
born, or desks that don't say something about how school sucked in '79 on
|
||||
them. Oh well, that's just my opinion.

"THE
|
||||
PRICE"
|
||||
It was a time of magic were by the wave of a hand you could rule a
|
||||
civilization. This is the time that Ender was from an orphan his mother died
|
||||
when he was born; his father was killed in a battle before he was born. All
|
||||
the people said he was an evil child; only one person thought that he was not
|
||||
evil, that was the old man that was his mentor Talsu. He was a grumpy old man,
|
||||
the people said that the only reason that he took Ender in was for a slave
|
||||
(and they were right) but the old man was teaching Ender magic with Ender's
|
||||
word that he would never leave the old man.That is what Ender did, he never
|
||||
left the old man till the day that the old man told Ender to go to Rana a town
|
||||
that was 23 miles a way it would take Ender a full days walk to get there.So
|
||||
he left in the morning and he walked for for hours till he had a vision that
|
||||
his master had sent him away for the reason that the village was going to be
|
||||
burned to the ground. So Ender ran as fast as he could till he reached the
|
||||
village it was on fire so he went to the old man's house the people that had
|
||||
done this were still there. So he used what magic he knew to make the men go
|
||||
away but thay just showed him what magic there greatest mage could do Ender
|
||||
was nocked uncontscious and left for dead.
|
||||
Ender woke up in a cave with all of the magic books that were in the old
|
||||
man's house then he saw the old man on the ground motionless Ender wen't over
|
||||
to the body and turned it over the old man's face was burned of.Ender then ran
|
||||
out of the cave and pucked in the near by bushes. When he was done he wipedhis
|
||||
mouth with his sleave and wen't back into into the cave so he dissided to
|
||||
finish his teachings then he would take revenge for his masters death.
|
||||
Several years later he hade finished his teachings he was a WARLOCK now
|
||||
he knew every spell in all of the old man's books now it was time to take his
|
||||
revenge.
|
||||
He dissided to go after the mage firstit would be very hard to find him.
|
||||
So he started at the closest town Canru. This he did the next morning It was
|
||||
a long walk to Canru he reached Canru by nightfall. He got a room at an inn.
|
||||
The morning was a warm one he walked to the house of the leader of the town
|
||||
his name was Syter. Syter was a youthful man of 28 he was a powerful mage that
|
||||
had a vision that Ender would visit him so he was ready to meet him at the
|
||||
door . He invited Ender in by name,Ender was surprised so he wen't in slowly,
|
||||
And then Ender asked Syterif he knew of the mage that helped burn down his
|
||||
village. He said that he had herd that the mage was given a town by the name
|
||||
of Kanri. Syter gave Ender a room to sleep and a whore to have his way with
|
||||
for this Ender was thanckfulso Ender befriended Syter. In the morning Ender
|
||||
gotgoing He saw a man by the side of the road Ender said hi to the man at that
|
||||
moment the man got up and another man came out of nowhere the man by the side
|
||||
of the road then "said give me all your gold and belongings and I may set you
|
||||
free may"at that time Ender had had all he could take from them so he said "my
|
||||
dear man you don't know what youare dealing with hear"the man said" what are
|
||||
you a wizard or some thing?" Ender then said"I am not of sutch a low rank when
|
||||
it comes to magic i am anever powerful WARLOCK!!!!" the man just said"there
|
||||
are no more WARLOCKs In this world I was part of the group of people that
|
||||
killed all of them. Then Ender said"then you will tell me where I can find all
|
||||
of the people that were part of that group now will you?!?!?". The man just
|
||||
terned to run the other man had allready ran into the woods so Ender would not
|
||||
fallow him he would use this one to help him find every one that was envolved
|
||||
in the death of his mentor. The man was just about to the edge of the forest
|
||||
when AEnder used his magic to make the man fall to his knees he tryed to move
|
||||
but it was no use Ender's power was to powerful Ender then made the manmove to
|
||||
him in a most disrespectful way then Ender cast a spell on the man so the man
|
||||
was under Ender's power And the only way to remove the spell was to kill the
|
||||
man but Ender would never let that happen to his only link to his revenge.
|
||||
They set camp in the forest as not to draw suspition and so the other man
|
||||
could not find them. In the morning they set off to Asherwa that is where the
|
||||
man said Ender could find the mage there. when they finaly reached Asherwa at
|
||||
around noon the other man had allready been there so all the people were there
|
||||
to see the last WARLOCK alive. The mage was there to meet Ender and to kill
|
||||
him. The mage said "My dear boy why do you want to die like your mentor???".
|
||||
Ender said "I will not die on this day, it is not my day to die: it is
|
||||
your's!!!". The mage made the people leave. Ender was geting ready when the
|
||||
mage attacked him with a mystic flame Ender was off guard he would neve let
|
||||
that happen again. Ender attacked the mage with a bolt of lightning that the
|
||||
mage tookbut with out sending Ender a surprise a virus that made Ender so sick
|
||||
that he ran over to the mage and pucked on the mage and then Ender fell down
|
||||
on the ground withn a thud. The mage was so happy that he called the people
|
||||
back so he could show the people the death of the last WARLOCK the people
|
||||
watched with intent eyes as the mage began the spell that would end Ender's
|
||||
life....

"Sue of St. Louis"
|
||||
by Lobo
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Sue was a fine young woman of twenty-eight. She had no problems in her
|
||||
life, except that she happened to be enjoying a long, relaxing stay at
|
||||
Deerview Lunatic Asylum in St. Louis, Missouri. Her cell had a warning label,
|
||||
on which was written, "CAUTION: violent response to all forms of treatment."
|
||||
Sue enjoyed biting the attendants, and when she was not restrained, kicking
|
||||
them and gouging their eyes out with her razor-sharp fingernails, which when
|
||||
cut seemed to grow back overnight. One night however, she killed her
|
||||
attendant. She took his keys, and let herself out of her restraints and her
|
||||
padded cell. Sue killed four guards in her escape, and took their weapons.
|
||||
After she left the grounds, she set forth on one of the bloodiest mass
|
||||
murdering rampages in history, killing almost seven hundred people before she
|
||||
was again brought to justice. How did one woman kill so many? Some say she
|
||||
was a servant of Satan, possibly even his mistress. Others claim that she
|
||||
gained the help of many hit-men. What really happened, though unbelievable,
|
||||
is far more interesting than either of these scenarios.
|
||||
There was a pumpkin, you see, that was normal in its childhood. When it
|
||||
was cut from the vine, it began to develop powers, though. It was bought for
|
||||
Halloween by a nice doctor who worked at the Ladue Home for the Criminally
|
||||
Insane, just outside of St. Louis, which coincidentally was where Sue was
|
||||
employed as a cook, curiously enough. The pumpkin, who now referred to itself
|
||||
as "The Great Pumpkin" (no relation to Linus of the Peanuts's creation),
|
||||
enjoyed its new home, until the day of the annual Halloween party. Sue was
|
||||
given the job of carving the jack o' lantern, and just as she was about to
|
||||
begin the electricity went out. She decided to carve it anyway, she had cut
|
||||
in the dark before. Meanwhile, The Great Pumpkin started to glow. She
|
||||
lowered the knife and it grew even brighter. So, she viciouslyhacked it to
|
||||
pieces. Then, she ate its oozing insides, as she was soon to do with her
|
||||
human victims. The Great Pumpkin's powers were now hers!
|
||||
Sue learned to use her powers, by slaughtering the inhabitants and
|
||||
employees of the Home. Some, she disemboweled with strange claws that grew
|
||||
from her tongue. Others heads she opened, and licked their craniums clean.
|
||||
Others still had their arms removed and were beaten to death with the bloody
|
||||
stumps. Sue then left the premises, to wreak havoc on the midwestern
|
||||
metropolis outside. She attacked schools, killing hordes of children.
|
||||
Businesses were also pillaged, and many housewives were left crying in Sue's
|
||||
wake. After seven hundred killings, the police cornered her.
|
||||
Sue was killed by police gunfire exactly one year ago. She was buried,
|
||||
and now rests in a fashionable cemetery in south St. Louis. Sue will never
|
||||
kill again. But, the police left the ooze behind. When Sue was killed,
|
||||
glowing yellow ooze streamed from all of the bullet holes. A glob of it was
|
||||
collected, and placed in a nearby dumpster. A bum was seen rummaging through
|
||||
the very same dumpster just minutes after the police left. Yesterday, another
|
||||
murder was committed in Sue's fashion. Only time will tell if it was just a
|
||||
copy-cat killing, or if the bum is now a denizen of evil.

is returning. Thpbhbhbhbhbhbt on that! Second, a high council of three
|
||||
founding members (proposed: Lobo, Seth, and Siva) presiding over the GwD
|
||||
Council, consisting of everyone else in GwD. Yeah! Everyoneon the GwD
|
||||
Council (Excluding High Council members, I'll explain below) gets a post, a
|
||||
title and an "ambassadorship" of a country or area, meaning in effect, that
|
||||
that "ambassador" is really king of the land there. Obviously, this would
|
||||
have to be organized after GwD fulfillsits destiny. Examples: I plan to be
|
||||
Surgeon General of the world, and my area might be the Orient, or South
|
||||
America, or whatever. My title, of course, would be Spanky McDougal, Sir,
|
||||
Grand High Kruton of Pu, God of Ceilings. Isn't that a cool title? My
|
||||
minions would be "sub-Krutons" and my maids would be "Krutonettes!" But, the
|
||||
three High Council members wouldn't have a title, since they preside over
|
||||
everybody else.
|
||||
Well, I've left my legacy, so when the time comes, and the world is ours,
|
||||
remember! Martyrs to the cause are beloved of Pu, and are whisked away to
|
||||
heaven, the Home and Garden isle at Wal-Mart.....
|
||||
From:
|
||||
Spanky McDougal, Sir!
|
||||
Grand High Kruton
|
||||
of Pu,
|
||||
God of Ceilings.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Afterword
|
||||
|
||||
Those are the ideas from one of our newest droogs about how the world
|
||||
should be run when it is under Greeny's control. We hereby accept it as how
|
||||
the world will be governed once our mission is complete. The only changes
|
||||
that will be made will be that since Greeny HAS returned, he will be the Chief
|
||||
Executive Officer of the world, and all of his decisions must be approved by
|
||||
the entire GwD Council. The High Council will consist of all of the Type Of
|
||||
Guys and our first droog, Aerik Aeriksson. We will have no titles, but we
|
||||
will be allowed to place "The Mighty" in front of our name (as in "The Mighty
|
||||
Lobo") or "The Great" after it (such as Diamondback, The Great) or any other
|
||||
such phrase before or after it, which will be subject to the approval of the
|
||||
High Council.
|
||||
Wowie! we've made it to file #10!!! Yippie!

===========================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
EXCLUSIVE TO THE SPOTLIGHT By Lawrence Wilmot
|
||||
|
||||
Murder on a major or minor scale - whether it involved "terminating" an
|
||||
individual target or decimating an unruly population - is a routine tactic of
|
||||
the CIA. Although theoretically prohibited by law from killing anyone, the CIA
|
||||
may well have been responsible directly and indirectly for more violent deaths
|
||||
over the past 45 years than the U.S. Army, cold-war historians suggest. One
|
||||
former CIA officer, John Stockwell, claims the agency's worldwide covert
|
||||
actions have cost "millions of lives." An updated roster of the CIA's victims
|
||||
would fill hundreds of pages, a SPOTLIGHT reporter exploring the subject
|
||||
discovered recently. Among the agency's best-known assassination targets:
|
||||
|
||||
- In June, 1959, Col. Ahmad Bukkiting, an Indonesian officer, was waylaid and
|
||||
murdered in his car in Central Sumatra. He was reportedly suspected of trying
|
||||
to drop out of a CIA-organized military coup against Indonesia's Sukarno
|
||||
government.
|
||||
|
||||
- On January 17, 1961, Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba of the Congo (now Zaire)
|
||||
was murdered by indigenous forces paid and armed by the CIA. The official
|
||||
explanation: Lumumba was "a Soviet pawn." The real reason: A financial
|
||||
consortium controlled by David Rockefeller had set its sights on the region's
|
||||
rich mineral resources. A compliant and utterly corrupt leader was installed,
|
||||
Mobutu Sese Seko, whose legendary skimming of foreign aid has turned him into
|
||||
one of the world's wealthiest men.
|
||||
|
||||
- In May, 1961, Gen. Rafael Leonidas Trujillo, the long-ruling strongman of
|
||||
the Dominican Republic known as a pro-U.S. nationalist, was shot to death in
|
||||
his chauffeur-driven limousine by a hit team of local officials recruited and
|
||||
armed by the CIA. The official explanation: Trujillo was a "human rights"
|
||||
offender who tended to "terminate" his rivals. The real reason: One of the
|
||||
enemies liquidated by Trujillo, Dr. Jesus Galindez, was a key CIA undercover
|
||||
agent.
|
||||
|
||||
- In 1961-62, the CIA organized several strikes against Dr. Francois
|
||||
"Papa Doc" Duvalier, Haiti's sinister dictator. He survived, but a hit team
|
||||
headed by Clement Barbot, who had been a Haitian presidential bodyguard before
|
||||
he went to work for the CIA, managed to kill one of Duvalier's daughters and
|
||||
members of his staff. The reason: White House fears that Duvalier was a
|
||||
dangerous madman.
|
||||
|
||||
- South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem was assassinated along with his
|
||||
brother, Ngo Dinh Ngu, by the CIA in 1963, reportedly on direct orders from
|
||||
the White House.
|
||||
|
||||
- On November 22, 1963, during a visit to Dallas, President John F. Kennedy
|
||||
came under the guns of a hit team whose trail has been traced to the CIA. The
|
||||
same day, the CIA's chief of clandestine services, Desmond FitzGerald, held a
|
||||
secret meeting in a Paris hotel room to hand a Cuban contact a poison-tipped
|
||||
ball-point pen designed to kill Cuban President Fidel Castro. Kennedy died;
|
||||
the communist dictator survived the CIA's assassination attempt.
|
||||
|
||||
- In March, 1965, a French inspection team headed by Col. Roger de Tassigny
|
||||
traveled through Laos and Vietnam gathering evidence on the booming narcotics
|
||||
trade supervised and protected by CIA agents. Departing Saigon in a U.S.
|
||||
helicopter, they were killed in a mid-air explosion. The official explanation:
|
||||
an accident. The real reason: The CIA saw the investigation as a threat and an
|
||||
attempt to sabotage its covert networks throughout Indochina.
|
||||
|
||||
- Salvador Allende, president of Chile, was overthrown and killed during a
|
||||
CIA-engineered coup in 1973, in which the intelligence agency conspired with
|
||||
Chilean military officers to murder the president and install a military junta.
|
||||
|
||||
- In June, 1973, Rodolfo "El Cojo" Cisneros and Mario Avila, the reputed
|
||||
leaders of a Mexican marijuana gang, were shot to death in Panama. Their
|
||||
murders were part of a top-secret CIA operation code named "Deacon II,"
|
||||
designed to "eliminate narcotics kingpins beyond the reach of conventional
|
||||
U.S. law enforcement," in which more than a dozen drug suspects were
|
||||
reportedly killed.
|
||||
|
||||
- Chilean diplomat Orlando Letelier, in exile from his country after the coup
|
||||
for his criticism of the CIA's takeover, was killed in a 1976 car bombing in
|
||||
Washington. All signs point to a CIA hit in the heart of the nation's capital.
|
||||
|
||||
- In January, 1978, a team of CIA operatives smuggled a bomb aboard a Cuban
|
||||
airliner making a refueling stop in Barbados. The plane exploded shortly after
|
||||
takeoff, killing all 83 aboard. The official explanation: The bomb was
|
||||
supposed to go off while the airliner was still on the ground, causing heavy
|
||||
damage but no loss of life, but accidentally went off late. The truth: The
|
||||
explosives detonated on schedule. The CIA had no regrets for Cuban casualties.
|
||||
|
||||
- On January 26, 1980, Francis John Nugan, chairman of the Nugan Hand Bank,
|
||||
was found shot to death in his Mercedes limousine in Lithgow, Australia.
|
||||
Nugan's murder - he was found to have been a clandestine CIA money broker and
|
||||
arms smuggler - is now attributed to the CIA by Australian authorities.
|
||||
|
||||
- In retaliation for what it assumed to be Iranian support
|
||||
for the resurgence of militant Moslems - particularly in Lebanon, where
|
||||
American hostages included William Buckley, the local station chief of the
|
||||
agency - the CIA waged a sustained campaign of terrorism and assassination
|
||||
against Iran from 1981 through 1990. At least 14 key members and religious
|
||||
leaders of Iran's fundamentalist government were killed or gravely injured.
|
||||
The agency denied involvement.
|
||||
|
||||
- As part of this campaign mentioned above, the CIA tried to kill Sheisk
|
||||
Mohammed Fadlallah, spiritual leader of a faction suspected of kidnapping
|
||||
Americans, in 1986 with a massive carbomb. The sheik escaped, but 80
|
||||
bystanders were killed.
|
||||
|
||||
- In October, 1987, Rolando Maferrer, an exiled Cuban arms dealer and
|
||||
right-wing militant, was killed by a car bomb in Miami. After years of
|
||||
investigation, his murder has now been linked to the CIA.
|
||||
|
||||
- On August 11, 1988, Malcolm McHugh, a Canadian arms dealer, was killed by a
|
||||
gunshot in his Brussels apartment. He had reportedly surprised a team of CIA
|
||||
burglars going through his files in search of evidence of illicit trade with
|
||||
Cuba.
|
||||
|
||||
- On August 17, 1988, Gen. Zia ul-Haq, Pakistan's president and military
|
||||
strongman, died in a mid-air explosion of his aircraft. His death came after a
|
||||
sharp dispute between his government and the CIA over conduct of the civil war
|
||||
in Afghanistan bogged down in a bitter deadlock, and is now generally ascribed
|
||||
to the agency by Pakistani investigators.
|
||||
|
||||
- In October, 1989, Whitman Conte, an American pilot, was killed in South
|
||||
Africa by a bomb hidden in the luggage compartment of his small plane. Long
|
||||
involved in CIA-sponsored diamond-smuggling flights, Conte was reportedly
|
||||
preparing to sell his story to the media when he was silenced.
|
||||
|
||||
- In September, 1990, an exiled Egyptian teacher, Maloof Haddad, was murdered
|
||||
in Paris for alleged terrorist activities involving U.S. diplomats and the
|
||||
1975 slaying of Saudi Arabia's oil minister.
|
||||
|
||||
- Derek Swanepool, a British journalist, made repeated visits last year to the
|
||||
Philippines collecting evidence on reported payoffs received by U.S. officials
|
||||
and CIA agents who helped overthrow the government of Ferdinand Marcos in 1986.
|
||||
|
||||
In February, 1993, he was found shot to death in his hotel room. Swanepool
|
||||
had reportedly turned up pay-dirt that would have led to high-level
|
||||
indictments among the Washington national security bureaucrats who ousted
|
||||
Marcos. Sources familiar with CIA tactics and motives say it was an agency hit.

|
||||
|
||||
Genesis, chapter one, verse one says that, "In the beginning, God created
|
||||
the heaven and the earth." In Genesis, also, began the birth of feminism. In
|
||||
a time when women were persecuted and sometimes killed for little or no
|
||||
reason, Christianity began teaching radical new ideas on equality. The bible,
|
||||
the holy doctrine of Christianity, spells out again and again its exact views
|
||||
concerning the treatment and role of women in the church, the family, and to
|
||||
an extent, society. Genesis is the basis for the bible's support and teaching
|
||||
of equality between men and women, and the beginning of the feminist
|
||||
movement's greatest ally, Christianity.
|
||||
Feminism on a large scale is a relatively new idea. Only within the past
|
||||
several decades have women managed to make radical advancements forward.
|
||||
However, feminism began a long time ago, at the very least, with the creation
|
||||
of Christianity. When the Old Testament was written, women's place in
|
||||
society, large scale, was the social doormat. In the Islamic faith, women
|
||||
have no place whatsoever, and having a daughter is considered even today to be
|
||||
a curse. In two verses of the very first chapter of Genesis, Moses explicitly
|
||||
denotes God's view of women as having personal equality with man as an image-
|
||||
bearer of God. "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God
|
||||
created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and
|
||||
God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and
|
||||
subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of
|
||||
the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth." (Gen.
|
||||
1:27-28) This is a break from traditional classicism in which women had no
|
||||
real role.
|
||||
Moses goes on to begin the teaching of women's role towards man in the
|
||||
second chapter of Genesis. "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the
|
||||
ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a
|
||||
living soul." (Gen. 2:7) "And the Lord God said, It is not good that man
|
||||
should be alone; I will make for him a helper. And out of the ground the Lord
|
||||
God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought
|
||||
them unto Adam to see what he would call them...but for Adam, there was found
|
||||
not a suitable helper. .And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man,
|
||||
made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now
|
||||
bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because
|
||||
she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his
|
||||
mother and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." (Gen.
|
||||
2:18-24) We see here, how, although man is created first, this does not make
|
||||
him greater than woman. Woman was created to be a helper for man, but this is
|
||||
not a demeaning role by any means. The later verses of the same chapter show
|
||||
Adam saying that woman is, "bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh," and
|
||||
therefore of same value. In the very last sentence, Moses says that to be
|
||||
complete, man has to leave his family, join with his wife, and then the two
|
||||
shall be one. This begins the idea that woman will provide that which is
|
||||
lacking in man, making them complete only when together.
|
||||
The third chapter of Genesis deals with fall of man and woman and begins
|
||||
the battle of the sexes. "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of
|
||||
the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath
|
||||
God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?" (Gen. 3:1) Here
|
||||
clearly the fall begins with the woman. "And when the woman saw that the tree
|
||||
was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be
|
||||
desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat and gave
|
||||
also unto her husband with her; and he did eat." (Gen. 3:6) Although the
|
||||
fall begins with the woman, it is only complete through the actions of both.
|
||||
When God discovers what has occurred, he questions Adam, and finds that Eve
|
||||
convinced him to eat through the beguiling of the serpent. He punishes them
|
||||
both saying, "Unto woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy
|
||||
conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be
|
||||
to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. And unto Adam he said, Because
|
||||
thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of
|
||||
which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground
|
||||
for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns
|
||||
also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of
|
||||
the field." (Gen. 3:16-18) Here, God gives woman childbirth. He also begins
|
||||
the race between man and woman here by saying that her desire will be to thy
|
||||
husband, but that husband will dominate over wife. In Hebrew this was meant
|
||||
to say that her desire would be to dominate over her husband, but that he
|
||||
would over her. He punishes the man more so than the woman and in greater
|
||||
depth, in spite of woman's initiation of the fall, thus establishing man's
|
||||
role of protector of woman. This same verse also shows that although woman
|
||||
came from man, man could only further his lineage through woman.
|
||||
This may sound as though Moses was trying deflate the importance of
|
||||
woman, but in actuality, he was pointing out that man and woman alike had been
|
||||
given specific roles and power over one another, therefore establishing the
|
||||
beginning of equality. The bible expands on this idea and goes on to spell
|
||||
out specifically the role of man and woman in the church and the family in
|
||||
such chapters as Ephesians, Corinthians and even Timothy. It gives no mention
|
||||
whatsoever to the role of woman in society and the workplace. This is in such
|
||||
stark contrast to its detailing of church and family that one would most
|
||||
likely surmise that it had no specific role in mind. Thus, Christianity
|
||||
establishes the equality of man and woman in the work environment. In the New
|
||||
Testament, the idea of equality takes an even larger view through Jesus'
|
||||
treatment of women. When He is resurrected, He shows himself to a woman
|
||||
first. There is the episode of the washing of feet between Jesus and a
|
||||
prostitute, a woman thought unworthy by the society of the time. The bible
|
||||
brought such new and radical ideas forth that it was often thought of as
|
||||
revolutionary literature. Behold, the birth, or "genesis," of feminism.

...yeah yeah, you self-pitying rascals. LISTEN, watchin' "CHiPs" isn't a waste
|
||||
of time, it's a golldarn PRIVILEGE. Shit. Watching CHiPs is an INVESTMENT,
|

yielding high-dollar psycho-emotional dividends.
|
||||
|
||||
Hmm. I guess no one's arguing that CHiPs isn't an Important Show. But it was
|
||||
almost implied by the tone of the last couple of files. So, obviously, I felt
|
||||
obliged to set the record straight. Heh. I guess i'm just over-reacting.
|
||||
Heh heh. I mean, no one would SERIOUSLY question the supremacy of CHiPs.
|

Heh. What a fool I've been. I'm sure Officer John Baker would've called me
|

on this, kinda like the way he called Leif Garret on bein' selfish that time,
|
||||
even though Leif sorta had a RIGHT to be freakin' out, since that Major Healy
|

guy who was his manager was just pushing him too darn hard...I mean, it was
|

always GO GO GO. And, geez, i mean even Leif has to relax once in a while,
|

and drive around in his sports coupe and just sorta unwind, it's not a CRIME,
|

darnit, but Maj. Healy didn't undertand, but Officer Baker ("John") helped him
|
||||
understand, and in the end, the Benefit Show was a grand success, thanks to
|
||||
the rascally "Paunch."

|
||||
|
||||
Throughout history, mankind has sought order for all aspects of life.
|
||||
People are often afraid, though, of how the "gods" - usually the belief
|
||||
system, the normative moral order, or the rulers of a particular society -
|
||||
will react to attempts at solving the mysteries of the natural world. The
|
||||
perennial belief that "Science does not remove the terror of the gods" (Dobbs
|
||||
7) has often led to an avoidance of scientific research altogether. One by
|
||||
one, though, many mysteries have been solved through the application of
|
||||
scientific principles including why objects fall to the earth, why lightning
|
||||
moves from the clouds to the earth (not vice versa), and why each living thing
|
||||
is unique. Scientific principles have also been applied in cases
|
||||
traditionally thought to be governed by luck, such as games of chance. In
|
||||
systems such as games of chance and the stock market, the scientific
|
||||
principles of probability and statistics are used to manage risk and remove
|
||||
uncertainty. Peter L. Bernstein's _Against the Gods: The Remarkable Story of
|
||||
Risk_ traces the development of probability and statistics from their origins
|
||||
(beginning even before the introduction of Arabic numerals to Europe) to the
|
||||
present-day.
|
||||
Risk and uncertainty have been the subject of numerous studies throughout
|
||||
history, primarily due to their association with fiscal matters, as discussed
|
||||
in Bernstein's work. The terms are commonly used but they often lack clear
|
||||
definitions. Merriam-Webster defines "risk" as "possibility of loss or
|
||||
injury" (1011) and "uncertainty" as "[a] lack of...knowledge...about an
|
||||
outcome or result" (1285). These definitions are correct, to a certain
|
||||
extent. Why has mankind often sought to avoid risk and uncertainty? We
|
||||
surely wish to avoid loss or injury, but there are always two sides to a risk:
|
||||
loss and gain. One should not so easily dismiss risk as there is a chance to
|
||||
gain. A person must accept the possibility that s/he might lose in order to
|
||||
accept the possibility that s/he might win. This is often hard to do, though,
|
||||
as the chance of losing often overshadows the chance of winning in the
|
||||
prospective risk-taker's mind.
|
||||
A relationship exists between the risk and uncertainty. Uncertainty
|
||||
reflects the degree of willingness to accept risk. Weighing the uncertainty
|
||||
of outcomes and acceptances of risks are everyday activities for many people:
|
||||
questions such as "If I drink eight shots of tequila, will I get sick?",
|
||||
"Which job should I take?" (or conversely, "Who should we hire for this
|
||||
position?"), and "Which stocks should I buy/sell?" are commonplace in our
|
||||
society. With the willingness to accept risk comes the weighing of
|
||||
uncertainties. When most people are aware of the presence of uncertainty,
|
||||
they are almost always (to use Bernstein's term) risk-averse. They seem to
|
||||
accept the biblical adage that "My people are destroyed for a lack of
|
||||
knowledge..." (Hosea. 4.6) as the literal truth. Leaving out the destruction,
|
||||
the biblical adage is the dictionary definition of uncertainty. People know
|
||||
to be wary of uncertainty, for if it is ignored and risk is taken lightly,
|
||||
destruction can follow. Risk and uncertainty are thus inextricable from one
|
||||
another. The relationship of risk and uncertainty has been studied to one
|
||||
degree or another by researchers of many disciplines, including psychologists
|
||||
and mathematicians. In fact, the study of their relationship with the goal of
|
||||
reducing uncertainty and managing risk has engendered the growth of its own
|
||||
branch of mathematics: probability.
|
||||
Probability is the branch of mathematics most concerned with uncertainty
|
||||
and the quantification of risk. It is "the chance that a given event will
|
||||
occur" (Merriam-Webster 928). Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an
|
||||
event. It also gives a measure of the likelihood that all other possible
|
||||
events will not occur. When a situation with several possible outcomes is
|
||||
encountered, one most often determines (or attempts to determine) the relative
|
||||
probability of each outcome, as well as the risk involved with each. Ideally,
|
||||
use of the principles of probability leads to reduced uncertainty and
|
||||
effectively manages of risk. Whether or not to accept the risk can then be
|
||||
determined based on the likelihood of the desired outcome. But how does one
|
||||
determine relative probabilities of situational outcomes that lead to specific
|
||||
events? Statistical methods are employed in the search for uncertainty
|
||||
reduction.
|
||||
Statistics deals with the analysis of past experiences in the hope of
|
||||
predicting future outcomes. It is the branch of mathematics that deals with
|
||||
large quantities of data: collecting the data, analyzing the data, and
|
||||
interpreting the data. Statistics and probability often go hand in hand.
|
||||
When attempting to determine the relative probabilities of outcomes, numerical
|
||||
data about previous occurrences of the same (or similar) situation(s) are
|
||||
compiled and examined in detail. The data are analyzed to provide an educated
|
||||
guess as to the relative probabilities of outcomes. Statistical data -
|
||||
information about the past - is widely accepted as an accurate representation
|
||||
of the future. In many cases, statistics can be used to predict probabilities
|
||||
of future outcomes quite accurately. For instance, in Galton's pea plant
|
||||
research, the diameters of the plants' stems regressed to the mean over
|
||||
several generations (Bernstein 166-167). This example shows that statistical
|
||||
data is used to determine the probability of an outcome (stem diameter, in
|
||||
this case) when the sample size is large enough. But this is not always the
|
||||
case.
|
||||
Statistics is not an exact science, at least not in respect to predicting
|
||||
the future. A past occurrence of an event does not necessarily prove that the
|
||||
event will occur again, even under the same circumstances. One could, for
|
||||
example, determine the average price per gallon of gasoline over the last year
|
||||
(or any suitable amount of time). While it is possible that the price will
|
||||
continue at about this level, there are many unseen factors affecting the gas
|
||||
price: tension in the Middle East, U.S. trade relations with petroleum-
|
||||
producing nations, the value of the U.S. dollar in the world market, etc.
|
||||
While each of these will possibly remain at the current status quo, there is
|
||||
no way to tell with any degree of certainty whether they will continue to do
|
||||
so. There is also no way to tell with certainty if they will affect gas
|
||||
prices at all. As Bernstein notes: "the past seldom obliges by revealing to
|
||||
us when wildness will break out in the future" (334). Predictions of future
|
||||
outcomes based on statistical data are not necessarily accurate.
|
||||
Probability and statistics are tools used to reduce uncertainty and
|
||||
effectively manage risk. They are used for the prediction of future outcomes
|
||||
in which there is a degree of uncertainty. Probability uses statistical data
|
||||
to provide as much information as possible about a situation based on similar
|
||||
situations that have already occurred. Based on past experience, we assume
|
||||
that the sun will come up tomorrow. There is no way to prove this with 100%
|
||||
certainty, but the sun's rise every day for as long as we care to remember is
|
||||
proof enough for the majority of us. But the principles of probability and
|
||||
statistics are not a guarantee of future outcomes by their nature.
|
||||
Probability and statistics are merely guides for risk management and
|
||||
uncertainty reduction based on past experience.
|
||||
Bernstein's Against the Gods is very interesting. The aspect of the work
|
||||
that is perhaps the most interesting is Bernstein's own definition of risk.
|
||||
He declares that the "heroes" he has discussed "have transformed the
|
||||
perception of risk from chance of loss to opportunity for gain, from FATE and
|
||||
ORIGINAL DESIGN to sophisticated, probability-based forecasts of the future,
|
||||
and from helplessness to choice." (337). These men who have questioned and
|
||||
fought the established order of their respective times - who have truly gone
|
||||
against the gods - have given us the modern definition of risk. A chance for
|
||||
gain is included, and the future no longer looks so bleak. Perhaps we are not
|
||||
truly condemned to repeat history.
|
||||
Bernstein's definition of risk provides hope that careful calculations of
|
||||
probabilities of future outcome based on past experience and risk management
|
||||
can pay off. Using Bernstein's definition of risk and one's own knowledge of
|
||||
probability and statistics, one can often make the right choices (or at least
|
||||
the best choices given the situation) regarding risk. [Is this an over-
|
||||
generalization? Yes.] Bernstein's definition of risk admonishes us to be
|
||||
risk-aware rather than risk-averse. There is still much to learn about
|
||||
mankind's reactions to risk and uncertainty, but perhaps science does remove
|
||||
the terror of the gods after all.

Walk into any average garden in west Texas, and you will most likely find
|
||||
a variety of plants. Some types of plants, however, you will not find.
|
||||
Tropical plants, for instance do not grow well in our desert climate. To grow
|
||||
such plants, we would need a greenhouse. A greenhouse is a building and a
|
||||
tool-a structure built entirely to grow plants. It offers a controlled
|
||||
environment that can be tailored to suit any type of plant from any given
|
||||
growing environment. Walk into a greenhouse here in west Texas, and you will
|
||||
encounter first the conservatorium. The lobby or anteroom to a greenhouse is
|
||||
a room which displays plants exotic to the native region, showing what kind of
|
||||
plants will most likely be grown within. Once inside, if you look up, you
|
||||
most likely see what is called a ridge and furrow design in the roof. The
|
||||
glass panes that allow light in for the plants are typically installed
|
||||
slantwise, much like the ridges and furrows of a garden. One of the greatest
|
||||
advantages of a greenhouse is the ability to control the temperature and
|
||||
moisture in the immediate area. Thermostats are kept in every room,
|
||||
monitoring and regulating the temperature for maximum growth of plants. A
|
||||
normal greenhouse is kept between eighty-two and eighty-five degrees
|
||||
Fahrenheit. Plants can also be watered on a regular schedule, once again
|
||||
increasing chances for optimal growth. It is quite easy to see how a
|
||||
greenhouse is essential for anyone trying to grow any type of plant not native
|
||||
to the area. Experiments can be conducted in the headhouse and subsequently
|
||||
moved to smaller rooms and thenceforth be monitored at the growers'
|
||||
convenience.
|
||||
As the title suggests, the author decided to grow a plant in a greenhouse;
|
||||
specifically, a cayenne pepper plant, or Capsicum annuum longum. Cayenne
|
||||
pepper (also known as chili or red hot pepper) is the fruit of Capsicum
|
||||
annuum, a shrubby, tropical plant that can grow to a height of up to 3 feet.
|
||||
The fruit is technically a berry. (The Cayenne Pepper, Nature-Herbs, Online)
|
||||
At maturity, the plant will have multiple branches, growing laterally up to
|
||||
two feet wide. The peppers will grow dark green and curl, before turning red
|
||||
upon ripening. The flowers of the plant grow upside down, to ready themselves
|
||||
to produce the peppers. The flowers are star-shaped and starkly white,
|
||||
growing to only to, at most, a centimeter in width. The petals are short and
|
||||
pointed and are not separated at the base of the flower. The leaves resemble
|
||||
the tip of a spear and can reach even three inches in length. They are simple
|
||||
leaves with only one leaf growing per petiole. On January 24th, 2001, the
|
||||
pepper seeds were planted. Clay pots with holes in the middle bottom were
|
||||
used. The hole prevented the soil and roots of the plant from becoming
|
||||
waterlogged. A perfect mixture of sand, clay, and loam was used as a soil.
|
||||
Too much clay would have caused the roots to drown, and too much sand would
|
||||
have resulted in the loss of too much water, thus starving the plant. The
|
||||
soil was placed in the pot up to one inch from the lip, firmly, but not
|
||||
tightly. The seeds for the pepper were scattered evenly across the top of the
|
||||
soil, and then completely covered with topsoil. Misted water was then applied
|
||||
until the topsoil took on a dark brown color. The potted seeds were left in
|
||||
the greenhouse to be tended to by staff, including fertilizing, watering, etc.
|
||||
The purpose of planting the plant was not to practice tending a plant, but
|
||||
rather to determine methods and materials for planting, growing, and in some
|
||||
cases, maybe harvesting the plant. This would be done by observing and
|
||||
monitoring the plants progress and growth.
|
||||
To the author's knowledge, no scarification or stratification was used to
|
||||
aid in germination of the seed. (When a seed is scratched to remove a tough
|
||||
outer covering, it is called scarification, stratification being when a seed
|
||||
is boiled for a time to simulate a warm and moist environment.) However, even
|
||||
without the use of these methods, the seed still germinated on the fifth of
|
||||
February, almost two weeks later. Since multiple seeds were planted, then
|
||||
multiple seedlings germinated. Greenhouse workers pulled all but one of the
|
||||
seedlings, leaving only the center-most seedling. This was done to allow the
|
||||
root system all the room in the pot to grow. On that afternoon, the plant was
|
||||
slightly over one centimeter tall, with two leaves shooting straight out,
|
||||
opposite each other, from the stem. The plant doubled its height in one week
|
||||
and produced two new leaves as well. These leaves also grew opposite each
|
||||
other, as did all following leaves. From that point onward, the plant
|
||||
averaged a new node and two new leaves (sometimes four) and a full centimeter
|
||||
in height every week until early March at which point growth increased in
|
||||
speed and development. Between March seventh and March twenty-sixth, the
|
||||
plant nearly tripled in height, producing almost twelve nodal regions, doubled
|
||||
in width, growing leaves too numerous to count and flowering the weekend
|
||||
before the twenty-sixth! On March nineteenth, the top of the plant split and
|
||||
began to grow multiple branches laterally upward. These new branches quickly
|
||||
accelerated in growth, and were growing faster than the original shoot. Now
|
||||
that is a busy little plant! By April eleventh, the plant had grown to a
|
||||
final height of fifty-four centimeters, a width of thirty-four centimeters,
|
||||
producing over forty nodal regions, and growing new flowers almost every week.
|
||||
Considering the probable life span of this type of plant, that would be like a
|
||||
human being born and growing to five and a half feet tall in less than a year!
|
||||
On April fourth, something small and green began to grow out of one of the
|
||||
fully developed flowers. This continued to grow, and now, exactly three weeks
|
||||
later is fully seven and a half centimeters long. The plant has produced
|
||||
eight peppers thus far and all are growing just as rapidly as the first,
|
||||
though none yet have ripened to the point that they can be harvested. In
|
||||
almost all aspects, the plant's growth started slowly and increased in speed
|
||||
towards maturity.
|
||||
Now, after taking over three months of lectures and labs concerning
|
||||
botany, what can I tell you about my cayenne pepper plant based mainly on
|
||||
observations? First, the plant is a vascular plant. This is easy to tell
|
||||
since the plant grew more than two centimeters tall! That leaves several
|
||||
types of vascular plants still to choose from. Since the plant flowered, then
|
||||
it is easily classified as an angiosperm, or a flowering plant. Now, the
|
||||
major question left is monocot or dicot. It would be possible to learn this
|
||||
information by cutting the plant open and examining a cross-section of either
|
||||
the roots, stem, or leaves. However, that would make growing the plant a moot
|
||||
point, since it would kill the plant. So, there are other ways to identify
|
||||
the plant. The first available clue was the leaves. Monocot leaves always
|
||||
have parallel veins running from the base of the leaf to the tip. The veins
|
||||
of a dicot leaf have more complex patterns called pinnate and palmate. This
|
||||
kind of venation looks like continuous branching and spider webbing. Since
|
||||
the leaves of this plant had branching veins, then the plant is a dicot. If
|
||||
that were not enough to be sure, then when the plant began to flower, all
|
||||
doubt would evaporate. The flowers were fairly small, white, and had five
|
||||
obviously visible petals. Monocots have flower parts in multiples of three,
|
||||
while dicots have flower parts in multiples of four or five. If we were to
|
||||
pull the plant up and slice and dice it, we would find other characteristics
|
||||
of a dicot plant. In the stem, the vascular bundle, (that which contains the
|
||||
xylem and phloem vessels) would be arranged in a ring as opposed to randomly
|
||||
scattered. In the root, the stele (containing certain vascular bundles) would
|
||||
be star-shaped. Examine the root system of our dicot plant, and you would
|
||||
discover a large main root called a taproot, where a monocot has a fibrous
|
||||
root system. There are even a few subtle differences in the leaves that
|
||||
require a microscope to identify.
|
||||
What else could be learned from observation of our pet plant? The cayenne
|
||||
plant is native to tropical areas, so the plant would wither easily if not
|
||||
watered frequently. Of the plants in our section, the plants towards the back
|
||||
of the table had a tendency to grow higher to reach the sun, a product of
|
||||
positive phototropism. Hormones produced in one part of the plant would
|
||||
gather on the shaded side of the stem. If the entire stem was shaded, then
|
||||
the stem would grow straight up. However, when the stem reached light of some
|
||||
kind, then auxin would gather only on side of the stem, the shaded side. The
|
||||
auxin promoted growth on that side by loosening the cell wall of cells on the
|
||||
shaded side of the stem. In layman's terms, the stem would bend towards the
|
||||
light. Our plants did not exhibit any other major tropisms that we could see.
|
||||
However, we should assume that the roots system would exhibit positive
|
||||
gravitropism, or growth towards gravity, as most roots do.
|
||||
Photoperiodism refers to the plants tendency to flower only when the day
|
||||
is short or only when the day is long. This was somewhat more difficult to
|
||||
observe, since the lighting environment was not so closely controlled, and
|
||||
I had no way of checking on whether or not the plants night was broken up by
|
||||
any flashes of light. Since photoperiodism is affected by the length of the
|
||||
night and not the length of the day, any flash of light at night would cause
|
||||
the plant to think it was a short night and a long day. In spite of this, a
|
||||
guess can be made. Since the plant did not begin to flower until late March,
|
||||
then one would be inclined to guess that the plant was a long day plant. This
|
||||
would only be a guess however, since too many other variables are involved.
|
||||
Other facts about the plant were learned in reading, but the purpose of
|
||||
the experiment was to improve observation skills and to see what could be
|
||||
learned through observational skills alone. Therefore, almost all facts
|
||||
contained in this report reflect what was learned through simply watching the
|
||||
plant grow and recording and monitoring the plants progress. We were able to
|
||||
correctly identify exactly what kind of plant the pepper belonged to simply
|
||||
from studying parts of the plants anatomy. We were able to learn about the
|
||||
plants growth from the plants reaction to light and the other plants around
|
||||
it. We learned what conditions the plant preferred when withering occurred
|
||||
after insufficient watering. We learned what materials were successful in
|
||||
aiding in the growth of the plant, and we learned the value of a greenhouse in
|
||||
controlling the environment of the plant and therefore eliminating as many
|
||||
unknown variables as possible. In this case then, the objective was
|
||||
successful.
|
||||
|
||||
[Fine, this is a report from a botany class. Kiss my ass.]

|
||||
|
||||
I figured it out. I've always been happy to be a Texan. I was thrilled to
|
||||
see the @ Texas entry on Zoes. I've often times threatened to beat people to
|
||||
the floor for slandering my Texas heritage (the steers and queers joke I came
|
||||
upon so often in the army), or at least fuck them and let them decide.....
|
||||
Yes brothers and sisters, I have been one of those fuzzy toothed zealots, with
|
||||
my mad glinting eyes and my large sharp rock always at the ready to defend the
|
||||
great state.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, I never really knew why. That is one of the perks of unwavering
|
||||
faith: One need not question it unnecessarily. Texas is the best. Source?
|
||||
Shut the fuck up or I'll poke your eyes out. That was the extent of my
|
||||
thoughts on the matter.
|
||||
|
||||
Well pardners, I figured it right the hell out this weekend. I went on a
|
||||
three day camping trip to Lake Allen Henry here in the panhandle, near Post
|
||||
(Go Antelope Whatthefuckever). Texas being the great state that it is, dammed
|
||||
a canyon and filled it with water so that we Texans could go there and boat
|
||||
and ski and camp. It was there that I learned the true meaning of Texas.
|
||||
|
||||
Texas wants to kill you. Yes, you. Me too, and everyone you have ever loved.
|
||||
Everything out in nature in Texas is equipped with thorns or spines or fangs or
|
||||
pointy teeth. The bugs go straight for your tender moist eyes with the
|
||||
stingers dripping with venom. A trip to relieve yourself turns into a cactus
|
||||
spine endurance trial as the native plant life tries desperately to rip out a
|
||||
chunk of your flesh. Oh yeah, cactus produce food via photosynthesis. My
|
||||
ass. Tell that to the festering sores on my calves. Cacti will eat you.
|
||||
Stroll by a harmless rock and prepare to hear that rattling sound that
|
||||
everyone in Texas knows. Yup. Snakes. Lots of them, and they all want you
|
||||
to die.
|
||||
|
||||
Even the cute wildlife is out to get you. Should one enjoy equine activities
|
||||
(riding with saddle, not donkey shows), one could ride all across this vast
|
||||
land. Right up till your horse breaks a leg in a prairie dog burrow. Hell,
|
||||
if you don't break your own leg by just walking around. And, you will note
|
||||
that animals or people that are downed by the dawgs tend to fall right next to
|
||||
their burrows which are loaded with plague bearing fleas who, yes, want to
|
||||
kill you.
|
||||
|
||||
Even where man tries to claim dominion over This Great and Violent Land Texas
|
||||
will try to kill you. Just ask anyone who has navigated 635 in Dallas during
|
||||
summer heat.
|
||||
|
||||
It's really no wonder Texans love weapons. If anyone lived in this state for
|
||||
more than a month they would know not to leave the house without a large
|
||||
caliber handgun or at the minimum fnords' enormous chinese bladed whacking
|
||||
stick to prevent your family from being murdered by rampaging mesquite bushes.
|
||||
|
||||
And Texas features varied and exciting forms of doom. Plants and animals and
|
||||
tornadoes and hurricanes. A state this large can't be limited to one or two
|
||||
types of natural disasters. Nope. Nuh-uh. I thought Austin might be out of
|
||||
the tornado belt. Hah. The horrible winds will take you. Bet on it.
|
||||
|
||||
It's the variety that gives us the one up on the other states.
|
||||
|
||||
Cali: Blackouts that will make you stub your toes, maybe riots.
|
||||
Arizona: Ooooh. It's hot. I might die from the heat. That pegs about a 2
|
||||
on my Give-A-Shit-o-Meter
|
||||
Virginia: Maybe an excess of history. I'm not even sure they have anything
|
||||
larger than a squirrel there.
|
||||
Maine: Maple trees fall on you after all the syrup has been drained to
|
||||
supply Texas' enormous pancake hunger. w00t!
|
||||
Nevada: Can't even kill you. The best it can do is take your money and
|
||||
cause you to go to your home state and kill yourself. This is the
|
||||
lazy Mexican of states.
|
||||
|
||||
So, to conclude because I am tired and smell bad after fighting against Texas
|
||||
for three days:
|
||||
|
||||
Goddamnit, this state r00lz. Any state that will keep you on your toes this
|
||||
much without you even really noticing is bad-ass. It makes you into a
|
||||
survivor, guaranteed to be able to beat the living shit out of any of those
|
||||
candy ass debutantes from the "Old South" or those Yak farmers from the chilly
|
||||
northern regions. Hell, even the food will kill you. Guess who produces more
|
||||
beef than anyone? Texas. Huge lumbering hormone injected beasts guaranteed to
|
||||
clog your pump.
|
||||
|
||||
So stand tall, carry at least one edged weapon or large bore pistol and
|
||||
whenever one of those snooty pickle gangsters from one of those "tiny" states
|
||||
tries to talk shit about Texas ask them "Oh yeah? When was the last time your
|
||||
state tried to kill you?" And then kick them in the balls and have marital
|
||||
relations with their pasty significant other to spread the iron clad seed of
|
||||
Texas.
|
||||
|
||||
I have to go. Their is a coyote here trying to steal one of my rifles.

|
||||
|
||||
What is quality? What makes something "better" (or at least of a higher
|
||||
quality than something else? An exact definition of quality has long been
|
||||
elusive and has brought about much discourse through the ages. Even in the
|
||||
twenty-first century, while different quality standards abound in industry and
|
||||
the U.S. government has established an award for companies that exhibit
|
||||
exceptional quality (the Malcolm Baldridge Award), the term still lacks a
|
||||
universally accepted definition. Standards such as these merely define
|
||||
quality with respect to specific applications (or sets of applications, such
|
||||
as industrial processes) without actually explaining what quality is. this is
|
||||
through no fault of their own, though, as lack of a clear definition is in the
|
||||
very nature of quality. Some say that quality is merely what you like;
|
||||
others say it is what *society* thinks you should like. Others attach
|
||||
philosophical implications to the concept of quality, a very interesting
|
||||
subset of the discourse surrounding its definition. A study of the
|
||||
philosophical aspects of quality is found in Robert M. Pirsig's _Zen and the
|
||||
Art of Motorcycle Maintenance_.
|
||||
When trying to define a word, the most obvious place to begin is the
|
||||
dictionary. With quality, though, the dictionary is somewhat lacking.
|
||||
Merriam-Webster defines quality as "an inherent feature," "degree of
|
||||
excellence," and "a distinguishing attribute..." (955). The definition
|
||||
continues, saying that quality is "a general term applicable to any trait or
|
||||
characteristic whether individual or generic..." (955). While parts of this
|
||||
definition seem to fit the concept of quality as we know it (particularly the
|
||||
discussion of its general nature and its applicability to either general or
|
||||
specific characteristics), the dictionary seems to have given quality a
|
||||
definition that is too narrow to adequately encompass all that quality is.
|
||||
Many companies and individuals have developed their own definitions of
|
||||
quality. An independent record company (Man's Ruin Records) labels its
|
||||
products with "Where Quality is Just a Word" (Kozik). While this is obviously
|
||||
a self-effacing slogan, Man's Ruin uses it to advertise the quality (or lack
|
||||
thereof) of its products. Kolarik quotes many (industrial and/or business)
|
||||
"Quality Masters" who also give narrow (specific to an industry) definitions
|
||||
of the term, such as: "Quality is fitness for use (Juran)...[it] is
|
||||
conformance to requirements (Crosby)..." (5). While these definitions are
|
||||
perfectly suited to specific engineering and/or business practices, they fail
|
||||
to grasp the overall concept of quality.
|
||||
In _Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance_, Pirsig uses the character
|
||||
of Phaedrus to define quality in metaphysical terms, despite repeatedly
|
||||
claiming that quality is indefinable. The narrator recalls that Phaedrus
|
||||
thought quality is not "independently related with either the subject of the
|
||||
object [as many classical quality definitions state] but...*only in the
|
||||
relationship of the two with each other*" and goes on to postulate that the
|
||||
"Quality" event is the *cause* of the subjects and objects..." (215), not vice
|
||||
versa. Thus, quality is the beginning and the end, which Phaedrus in his
|
||||
pursuit of quality equates to the Hindu Bragma and the Buddha in numerous
|
||||
passages from the work. If quality is truly the beginning and the end, as
|
||||
Phaedrus claims, then he is equating it to the deity of Western theology as
|
||||
well as the Oneness of the East: "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and
|
||||
the last, the beginning and the end" (Revelation 22:13). Pirsig, possibly
|
||||
unknowingly, has thus linked Eastern and Western mythology.
|
||||
Phaedrus also states: "Quality isn't a substance. Neither is it a
|
||||
method. It's outside of both...It's the goal toward which method is aimed"
|
||||
(Pirsig 305). Pirsig, through Phaedrus, seems to be saying that quality is
|
||||
everything and the stimuli to which we react are merely manifestations of
|
||||
quality. This is a refutation of classical quality definitions tat relate to
|
||||
specific characteristics of specific products processes, etc. Pirsig's
|
||||
definition of quality is therefore nondualistic; it is neither subject nor
|
||||
object, neither substance nor method. Quality exists outside of the trappings
|
||||
of these terms and, according to Pirsig, is the cause behind the existence of
|
||||
these terms.
|
||||
Quality is a word that is attached to many things. The norms of society
|
||||
often tell us what is "good" and "bad," but long ago someone (or perhaps a
|
||||
specific group of people or society at large) chose the definitions of these
|
||||
subjective terms. In many cases, "good" and "bad" are defined in terms of
|
||||
morals, which is too in-depth a topic to be discussed here. While Mr.
|
||||
Pirsig's definition of quality as non-subjective makes sense, the experience
|
||||
of quality (Kolarik 6-7) -- the manifestations of the enigma called quality --
|
||||
are entirely subjective and are influenced by many factors, including personal
|
||||
preference. Most definitions of quality, with the exception of Pirsig's
|
||||
metaphysical definition, are actually definitions of the experience of
|
||||
quality, "a function of the fulfillment of human needs and expectations"
|
||||
(Kolarik 6).
|
||||
(Quality aside, perhaps the most interesting aspect of Pirsig's work is
|
||||
the Eastern-inspired focus on oneness or unity. Pirsig defines quality in
|
||||
nondualistic terms, as discussed above. He also provides many other examples
|
||||
of oneness/unity, such as an in-depth discussion of rhetoric versus the
|
||||
dialectic (in the context of Socrates and the Sophists). Rhetoric is "writing
|
||||
or speaking as a means of communication or persuasion" (Merriam-Webster 1004)
|
||||
while the dialectic is "discussion and reasoning by dialogue as a method of
|
||||
intellectual investigation" and "tension or opposition between two interacting
|
||||
forces or elements" (319). Thus, rhetoric (especially in the case of speech)
|
||||
is more in tune with Pirsig's unity concept than the dialectic, which is
|
||||
usually a discussion between two people, one seeking to disprove the other's
|
||||
statements. When Phaedrus argues with the Chairman, it is clear that Phaedrus
|
||||
(the rhetorician) is victorious over the dialectical Chairman (Pirsig
|
||||
351-354). The narrator himself is an example of the move to oneness. He is
|
||||
plagues with fragments of memories from Phaedrus's life until he finally
|
||||
succumbs to Phaedrus's desire to "come back" and decided to "Be one person
|
||||
again!" (370). Once this decision is made, it seems that the bulk of the
|
||||
narrator's troubles will end.)
|
||||
I have arrived at a definition of quality which borrows aspects from many
|
||||
of the definitions discussed above. I sought to define quality in
|
||||
sufficiently broad terms to encompass any instance of quality in any
|
||||
situation. Therefore quality, to me (borrowing heavily from Pirsig), is the
|
||||
ultimate cause to every effect. It is omnipresent. Quality manifests itself
|
||||
as the measurable characteristics of objects (e.g. dimensions) or processes
|
||||
(e.g. process time), as well as those characteristics that are completely
|
||||
subjective and cannot be measured (e.g. pleasant smells). Thus, the
|
||||
experience of quality is the only quantifiable aspect it possesses. As such,
|
||||
quality is intimately involved in all aspects of our daily lives, yet it is
|
||||
unknowable; we can merely become familiar with specific aspects of it such as
|
||||
the experience of quality discussed previously.
|
||||
Pirsig's _Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance_ provides a unique
|
||||
insight into philosophy, a discipline that many "technical people" often
|
||||
neglect to study. The discussion of quality is entirely different from any
|
||||
that can be found in an engineering textbook. While quality may not be the
|
||||
Creator of everything, Pirsig's perspective on quality is certainly unlike any
|
||||
I have seen before. This new (to me) perspective made me reevaluate my own
|
||||
definition of quality, given above.

Presents:
|
||||
"Censorship: The School Play"
|
||||
by Lobo and Spanky McDougal, Sir!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This is a play that we wrote for and performed in English class. The
|
||||
theme was 'a problem that our society faces', so we chose censorship. The
|
||||
play was to be ten minutes long, and we had to have costumes and a set. Our
|
||||
group actually consisted of four members, but the other two did not actually
|
||||
do any of the script writing.
|
||||
|
||||
Characters:
|
||||
Teacher (our teacher actually portrayed this character)
|
||||
Billy (non-writer/non-droog)
|
||||
Store Clerk (Spanky McDougal, Sir!)
|
||||
Jello Biafra (Lobo)
|
||||
Mark Twain (Spanky McDougal, Sir!)
|
||||
|
||||
Act I
|
||||
Scene 1
|
||||
("School" is written on the chalkboard)
|
||||
|
||||
Teacher- Remember class, you all need to get a book for your book report by
|
||||
the day after tomorrow, tomorrow being a holiday and all.
|
||||
|
||||
Scene 2
|
||||
|
||||
("School" is erased, and "Store" is written in its place. Some Dead Kennedys
|
||||
records are displayed, and a nice sign is out about how you must be eightteen
|
||||
to purchase them. Billy finds a copy of "Bedtime for Democracy", and brings
|
||||
it to the clerk)
|
||||
|
||||
Narrator- Billy has gone to the local bookstore to pick up a book and find
|
||||
some music to help him enjoy his day off.
|
||||
Store Clerk- You want to buy THAT!?! Sorry kid, you gotta be eightteen to buy
|
||||
that trash! Sorry, but why would you want it anyway?
|
||||
Narrator- Billy is holding an album by Jello Biafra, singer of the Dead
|
||||
Kennedys, a group that sells records with a strong anti-government message.
|
||||
Jello is currently serving a federal prison sentencefor income tax evasion,
|
||||
but here he is now on his work release program.
|
||||
Jello- I've been censored again! The Man has put me in the pen, and I still
|
||||
can't get away from these evil government plots to stifle the minds and free
|
||||
will of the young people, like him!
|
||||
(he points at Billy, while Jello finishes his speech, Billy looks around and
|
||||
finally says:)
|
||||
Billy- I need a book for my book report. Have you got a copy of 'Huckleberry
|
||||
Finn'?
|
||||
Store Clerk- Why would you want to read THAT politicallt incorrect sorry
|
||||
excuse for literature?!? Don't you know that it's been banned from this
|
||||
school system? It's pretty racist, ya know.
|
||||
(Mark Twain steps out, looking a bit peaked, since he's been daed for awhile)
|
||||
Narrator- And here's Mark Twain, fresh from the grave!
|
||||
Twain- Here we go again. People are always misunderstanding me! 'Huckleberry
|
||||
Finn' was written as a social outcry against slavery and racism, but its
|
||||
meaning has been distorted by power happy watchdogs who misunderstand the
|
||||
point of the book and cite as examples phrases much out of context. Hmmph!
|
||||
The school board has no right to censor me because history is not politically
|
||||
correct!
|
||||
Jello- What a bunch of pinko commie fascist pigs! When a few appointed
|
||||
officials can decide what our kids should and shouldn't learn in school
|
||||
without consulting their parents, the government and all its twisted agencies
|
||||
behind a masquerade of democracy has finally hit bottom!
|
||||
Twain- Well, I wouldn't go that far. Some people might be overdoing it,
|
||||
banning the teaching of the theory of evolution because some people find it
|
||||
offensive and such, but for the most part it's not that bad.
|
||||
Jello- But don't the kids like him have the right to choose what music they
|
||||
listen to? It's just another government plot!
|
||||
Twain- Children might not be responsible enough to choose appropriate or less
|
||||
influential music, and adults can't really say that "he's responsible, give
|
||||
him a music license, but he's a hoodlum, so just give him a learner's permit".
|
||||
So many shootings by young'uns have been blamed on violent rap music and such
|
||||
like that you can't really say that music doesn't affect people. Sure, the
|
||||
music didn't make a kid shoot a policeman, but it didn't help! By the way,
|
||||
the government doesn't censor people just to get at you. A lot of special
|
||||
interest groups have put the pressure on, and everyone intends for the good of
|
||||
the majority.
|
||||
Jello- Of course musice IS influential, but although our song "Holiday in
|
||||
Cambodia" does have a message, it doesn't mean that Cambodia is a nice place
|
||||
to vacation. It might be though, I've never been there.
|
||||
Twain- But how do you explain that to a teenage groupie whose only goal in
|
||||
life is to own a lock of your hair?
|
||||
Jello- Well, I guess people really do have to make their own decisions about
|
||||
censorship. In MY opinion, though, the government should just stay out of it!
|
||||
Narrator- Their conversation continues, too long for one ten minute school
|
||||
play, no matter how brilliantly it's acted. Finally, Jello wraps up with one
|
||||
of his favorite poems:
|
||||
Jello- If you don't like the words I say,
|
||||
Lock me up and throw me away.
|
||||
Surround me with your panes of glass,
|
||||
Censorship can kiss my....
|
||||
Narrator(interrupting)- BUM!!!
|
||||
(As Jello finishes the last line, he drops his pants and whirls around. A
|
||||
black censorship dot appears before anything can be seen.)
|
||||
Jello- I'm not even really HERE, and they can STILL censor me!!
|
||||
Twain- This just shows that sometimes censorship can be a GOOD thing.
|
||||
|
||||
THE END
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Note from the authors:
|
||||
As this play was written for school, there was no cussing, though there
|
||||
should have been. We would like to thank Low Tolerance for the "poem" that we
|
||||
so blatantly stole from there song "Censorship". If you can't tell what the
|
||||
last word of the "poem" is, think: what rhymes with 'glass' and is a synonym
|
||||
of 'bum'? If you still don't know, you are very silly. If you didn't know
|
||||
who Jello Biafra is before you read this, you are not worth wasting the time
|
||||
to explain. Our only set change actually was just erasing 'school' from the
|
||||
chalkboard and writing 'store' in its place. And of course, Lobo really did
|
||||
drop his pants, but the teachercensored him, making him wear shorts under his
|
||||
jeans. Our performance lasted about five minutes, instead of ten, and we got
|
||||
a ninety-eight on it, which was the best grade in the class.

Number 5 is in the houuuuuse!
|
||||
|
||||
Who's the bass-thumpinist, party rockinist, boots knockinist number around?
|
||||
It's number Five up in the muthafuckin house!
|
||||
|
||||
Who's the number that won't cop out when there's danger all about? Five?
|
||||
Damn right.
|
||||
|
||||
While number Five may not be number one, it's still really fucking good. It's
|
||||
one of my favourites. I can't think of a better number in the world. What
|
||||
other number can you double to create ten? And speaking of ten, how many
|
||||
times does ten factor into fifty? In case you don't have the super-magnifico
|
||||
mathematical skillz that I have, I'll tell you now that the answer is Five.
|
||||
|
||||
Number Five, always quick to step into a math problem at a moment's notice.
|
||||
Sure it's only half of ten, but would you really want it to be all of ten? In
|
||||
my opinion, that would cause Five to lose all of its charm. Ten is just so...
|
||||
tenish, it's not really like Five at all. I mean, the first difference is
|
||||
that five is a prime number. that means it's always primed and ready to kick
|
||||
some science. Ten is just so one-plus-zero-ish and let's face it, that zero
|
||||
is deadweight.
|
||||
|
||||
Then there's Five. Pure, simple, there's no secret about Five's intentions.
|
||||
Five has nothing to hide. Look at it, for crying out loud! It looks like
|
||||
it's smiling at you!
|
||||
|
||||
5
|
||||
|
||||
And even if it doesn't look like it's smiling, it would if it could! So step
|
||||
the fuck off, because Five is on the scene and there ain't no fuckin with
|
||||
Five.

MAN. YOU NEED A BACON DOUBLE-CHEESEBURGER, DAMNIT.
|
||||
|
||||
THOSE ARE COOL, AND THEY'RE 99 CENTS. THE OTHER DAY THEY HAD CHANGED OVER
|
||||
FROM SELLING DOUBLE CHEESEBS TO BACON DOUBLE CHEESEBS FOR THE SAME PRICE BUT I
|
||||
DIDN'T KNOW IT YET.
|

SO I WAS ORDERING MY USUAL DOUBLE CHEESEB. AT THE DRIVE-THROUGH AND THE LADY
|

SAID "THAT'LL BE $2-SOMETHING"
|

|
||||
AND I WENT
|

|

"HUH? AREN'T THOSE LIKE A DOLLAR?"
|
||||
|
||||
"NO. NOT ANY MORE."
|
||||
|

THEN I TRIED TO COMMUNICATE THAT I WANTED WHATEVER SORT OF BURGER THING THEY
|
||||
HAD THAT COST ABOUT A DOLLAR. BIG MAC, DOUBLE SOMETHING, WHATEVER... IF IT'S
|
||||
WITHIN 10 CENTS OF A DOLLAR, THAT'S WHAT I WANT. GOSH DURNIT.
|
||||
THE DRIVE-THROUGH WINDOW PEOPLE DON'T SEEM TO LIKE TO BE ASKED INEQUALITIES.
|

|
||||
WHY AM I WRITING THIS?
|
||||
UNFORTUNATELY, I KNOW WHY... AND IT'S SCARY.

BYE.

|
||||
|
||||
- Experiments in Hedonism -
|
||||
|
||||
It all started with a discussion on ethics. Lance and I went out to the Hub
|
||||
City Brewery to get one of their fantastic pizzas. They have a real
|
||||
wood-burning oven, so their crust is the best in town. Lance and I ended up
|
||||
sitting at our favorite table, admiring the gorgeous redheaded waitress and
|
||||
scarfing down pizza.
|
||||
|
||||
The conversation started to drag, so I decided to take Lance through the same
|
||||
series of questions I tried out on Matt and Rusty over the weekend. We were
|
||||
discussing ethics, religion, and my recent deconversion -- so I decided to
|
||||
test some of my theories with real world data. I won't bore you with the
|
||||
details. The important part is, Lance and I started discussing the real
|
||||
meaning of right and wrong. This led into a discussion of Epicureanism and
|
||||
"Rational Hedonism." I think Lance would make an excellent Epicurean. The
|
||||
conversation turned to a discussion of pleasure. In particular, when should
|
||||
people feel guilty about doing things they enjoy?
|
||||
|
||||
I was planning to stop by Hastings and buy a computer game, but after about
|
||||
an hour of this discussion, we ended up at a strip club.
|
||||
|
||||
- Escape from the Bunkhouse -
|
||||
|
||||
I made the mistake of telling Lance I had never been to a strip club. Here I
|
||||
was, 27 years old, single, and unattached. My friends had been to these
|
||||
places a couple times, but I never seemed to be around when they went. So
|
||||
when Lance took it upon himself to "corrupt" me, I went along cheerfully.
|
||||
(I'm really not as innocent as I pretend, most of the time, but people seem to
|
||||
enjoy corrupting me...) We weren't dressed well enough for Players, the
|
||||
high-class topless bar in town, so Lance decided to drive outside the city
|
||||
limits and hit this totally nude place called the Bunkhouse. It sounded kinda
|
||||
sleazy to me, but that was the whole point, right?
|
||||
|
||||
So we drive out to the middle of BF Nowhere and pull up to this glorified
|
||||
wooden shack with horses, cowboy boots, and cacti painted on the outside. At
|
||||
this point, I began to get nervous. My mind filled with visions of emaciated
|
||||
hags with redneck accents and bad teeth.
|
||||
|
||||
Daunted, we press on.
|
||||
|
||||
Lance removes a six pack of beer from his trunk. You can't serve liquor in an
|
||||
all-nude bar, it's BYOB. (A smarter man would have seen this as a danger
|
||||
signal.) However, since it was Monday, the Bunkhouse was closed. (Evidence
|
||||
of divine intervention? Too close to call.)
|
||||
|
||||
I thought our little excursion would be over at that point, but Lance
|
||||
suggested that we try this new place called Nibbles down the street. A place,
|
||||
coincidentally, where my best friend's sister works. She's just a waitress,
|
||||
but in a town like Lubbock, being within 30 feet of naked flesh is a sin. And
|
||||
actually accepting money from men who are looking at naked flesh might as well
|
||||
be prostitution.
|
||||
|
||||
I don't know which possibility bothered me more. The thought that I might see
|
||||
her there, or the thought that she might see me there.
|
||||
|
||||
Actually there was one thing that scared me more than either of those
|
||||
possibilities. On the way over, I told Lance, "If we see my Dad here, pretend
|
||||
they need you at the office."
|
||||
|
||||
- Nibbles -
|
||||
|
||||
The outside of Nibbles wasn't quite as dreadful as the Bunkhouse, although the
|
||||
parking lot was essentially dirt and gravel. Inside, I navigated across the
|
||||
torn carpet, peering into the smoky depths beyond. The bouncer met as at the
|
||||
door and put these pathetic little bracelets around our wrists. They were
|
||||
designed to glow brightly under the ultraviolet lights of the stage area. I
|
||||
know every club in the world does this, but it seemed childish to me. I felt
|
||||
like a schoolboy on some bizarre pornographic field trip.
|
||||
|
||||
I wasn't thinking very clearly on the way in. I thought the Bunkhouse was the
|
||||
only all-nude club in the area. I thought Nibbles was just topless. It
|
||||
didn't take long to figure out I was wrong.
|
||||
|
||||
We walked in and sat down right by the stage. I was expecting some casual
|
||||
nakedness, maybe a couple of poorly-lit breasts. But no. There was some
|
||||
serious nakedness going on here. It took a while to get used to. Lance
|
||||
pushed a beer over to me and I took a sip of some thick, bitter ale. I would
|
||||
have cheerfully traded it for a diet coke, but I was saving my money to tip
|
||||
the dancers.
|
||||
|
||||
We sat there for an hour or so, casually dispensing dollar bills to the
|
||||
ladies. You couldn't make out faces very well with all the smoke and shifting
|
||||
light, but I suspect I was the only one looking at faces. All the dancers
|
||||
were very attractive. I'll confess that my expectations were pretty low
|
||||
walking in, so I was pleasantly surprised.
|
||||
|
||||
During a performance, it's important to develop what I call a "strip club
|
||||
poker face." It's a kind of disinterested leer, a cross between total boredom
|
||||
and smoldering lust. It's the face most men use at fitness clubs. I mean,
|
||||
men know there are beautiful women in tight clothes bending over exercise
|
||||
equipment in front of them, and the women know they're looking, but neither
|
||||
side is supposed to acknowledge the other. There's no way I could simulate
|
||||
this expression; it just looked too stupid to me. I mean, I wasn't going to
|
||||
drool on the floor and hoot, but I wasn't going to pretend I was watching tv
|
||||
in my living room, either. The men try to look all cool during the
|
||||
performance, like women rip off their clothes and gyrate in front of them all
|
||||
the time. But obviously this doesn't happen to you all the time, or you
|
||||
wouldn't have paid the $10 cover.
|
||||
|
||||
I decided to use my gentle, nonthreatening grin -- the face I reserve for
|
||||
single women and old people in the hospital. (It's also my default expression
|
||||
during the first week of a new job.) I was projecting the message, "I'm happy
|
||||
to be here, but I'm not a pervert." I don't know if it worked or not.
|
||||
|
||||
Between dances, I paid attention to the details of my surroundings. The stage
|
||||
floor was like a dilapidated chess board, scuffed by countless numbers of
|
||||
women dancing in high heels. That's one thing I couldn't understand. The
|
||||
dancers I saw were all wearing ridiculous high-heels. Black ones, white ones,
|
||||
red ones -- even clear ones. I haven't seen that many uncomfortable shoes in
|
||||
one place since my Uncle's wedding. Why do women do this to their feet? Do
|
||||
men really find these foot-daggers attractive? I found myself longing for a
|
||||
girl in tennis shoes or moccasins. Maybe a nice brown hush puppy.
|
||||
|
||||
The lighting was bad and oppressive. The UV bulbs in the ceiling made
|
||||
everything look like a government lab from the X-Files. I kept waiting for a
|
||||
Gray alien to walk out and ask us if we were enjoying the show.
|
||||
|
||||
The whole thing seemed contrived and a little cheap. The disco lights covered
|
||||
everything in this sickly half-light. I mean, I wasn't expecting the place to
|
||||
be lit up like an operating room, but a discrete spotlight would have been
|
||||
nice. (A discrete spotlight? Whatever.)
|
||||
|
||||
The worst thing about the stage performances was the DJ. I don't mean to be
|
||||
cruel, but this guy was barely one step up from K-Mart store announcer. He
|
||||
used the same phrases over and over again, and he slurred the words together.
|
||||
He over-emphasized certain words, stringing them out too long and too loud, in
|
||||
a pathetic attempt to generate enthusiasm.
|
||||
|
||||
It was like listening to Rick Dees on ephidrene.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm not proud of this, but I've done some time in a DJ booth. I know all
|
||||
about the misplaced emphasis and false enthusiasm. I was a pathetic failure
|
||||
as a DJ. My natural speech pattern is a kind of sardonic innocence, poking
|
||||
fun at the world -- childlike observations cloaked in irony. There was no
|
||||
irony here. No self-conscious hesitation or "regular guy" chatter. Just this
|
||||
endless stream of leering hucksterism. I was a pathetic disk jockey, but
|
||||
verbally pimping dancers at a strip club is definitely the bottom of the DJ
|
||||
food chain. (Right below that guy who does the commercials for Monster Truck
|
||||
shows.) However, there would be one significant perk to being the DJ at a
|
||||
strip club. You get to operate the smoke machine! I've always wanted a job
|
||||
with a smoke machine.
|
||||
|
||||
- What Men Really Want -
|
||||
|
||||
Don't get me wrong. The dancers were lovely and talented. Although some were
|
||||
clearly working harder than others. Marilyn danced up there like she was
|
||||
earning money to save a dying relative. She wasn't necessarily the prettiest
|
||||
dancer, but she made up for it with enthusiasm. This girl knew how to work a
|
||||
crowd.
|
||||
|
||||
When I take my next Marketing class, I'm going to write a paper about Total
|
||||
Quality Stripping.
|
||||
|
||||
She took great care with her props and presentation. She wore a tight dress
|
||||
with big polka dots that would glow under the UV light. But her most
|
||||
effective tool was the music she picked. She did a medley of 80's hits,
|
||||
straight out of my tortured childhood. People in my age group are suckers for
|
||||
80's music. When the DJ launched into "Jesse's Girl," I actually got a little
|
||||
tear in my eye. This transparent manipulation paid off nicely for her. She
|
||||
stayed longer than any of the others, and she raked in the money. Lance gave
|
||||
her a buck for a closer look, and she danced like he was holding a hundred.
|
||||
|
||||
Let this be a lesson to women everywhere. It doesn't matter how you look. It
|
||||
doesn't matter how you dress. It doesn't matter how you walk. It doesn't
|
||||
matter how you talk. It doesn't matter how young or limber you are. What men
|
||||
really want is enthusiasm. If you've got that, he'll keep coming back, no
|
||||
matter how many pimples or pounds you have. But without it, your relationship
|
||||
is doomed.
|
||||
|
||||
- Busted! -
|
||||
|
||||
I ran into my friend's sister almost immediately, back at the bar. In all the
|
||||
years I had known Rusty, I had never said more than 10 words to Casey. James,
|
||||
Rusty, Scott, Matt, and I would meet over at Rusty's house periodically to
|
||||
play D&D and play Nintendo, and Casey was usually there. She always had a
|
||||
wild streak, and when I first heard she was working at a strip club, I was
|
||||
concerned. Like all good Christian boys, I had heard my share of horror
|
||||
stories about these places -- all the dancers were drug-addicted white slaves,
|
||||
all the owners were organized crime figures, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Casey had always been pretty, but the guys assured me she had grown up to be
|
||||
an absolute knockout, complete with tattoos and piercings and recently-blonded
|
||||
hair. I was expecting that, but I wasn't expecting her personality to be so
|
||||
different.
|
||||
|
||||
Casey had always seemed a bit tense at home, a bit reserved in the presence of
|
||||
her brother. She says her brother didn't want her intruding on the gaming
|
||||
sessions, so I suspect that was most of it.
|
||||
|
||||
James and Scott had always been close to Casey, but I never really talked to
|
||||
her much. So I was unprepared for this bubbly blonde bombshell who knew me by
|
||||
name. I had known her family for years, and no one in that bunch could be
|
||||
called bubbly. But Casey seemed really happy. Effortlessly, honestly happy.
|
||||
I think Rusty could learn some things from his sister. So could I.
|
||||
|
||||
I guess it just goes to prove, nobody can be who they really are in front of
|
||||
their family.
|
||||
|
||||
I don't know how much of it was genuine, but her emotion seemed real to me. I
|
||||
was worried that she might be dancing there. Not so much because I was
|
||||
concerned for her, but because if she was dancing, I would have to leave.
|
||||
I've done some crappy things in the past two years, but lusting after my best
|
||||
friend's sister was not something I wanted on my conscience.
|
||||
|
||||
I'll confess, I shifted into "Big Brother" mode the moment I saw Casey. I
|
||||
conducted a polite interrogation to see if she was dancing, and I asked if she
|
||||
had ever been uncomfortable or scared working there. She was forthright and
|
||||
honest, and she made it clear that she would never be comfortable dancing
|
||||
there. I believed her, and given the intensity of her response, I felt a
|
||||
little guilty about asking. Rusty is my friend, but his sister's life is none
|
||||
of my business. For the record, I think Casey is a happy, healthy girl
|
||||
working in a weird job that pays her a lot of money. Can you blame her? I
|
||||
can't.
|
||||
|
||||
- Very Important Perverts -
|
||||
|
||||
I was ready to leave after about an hour and a half. I saw lots of beautiful
|
||||
women, and I had a good time. But I had to be at work the next day, and the
|
||||
initial shock wore off quickly. The girls were lovely, but none of them
|
||||
really knocked me out. (Alas, there were no redheads.)
|
||||
|
||||
So I was ready to go. Wanted to come home, write my little journal, and make
|
||||
it to bed about 1am. But Lance was in no hurry. He kept telling me to sit
|
||||
down and relax. Truthfully, I was getting bored.
|
||||
|
||||
That hideous DJ kept harping about the "VIP Cigar Bar" where the dancers would
|
||||
come to "hang out" and talk to customers after the show. I didn't really care
|
||||
either way, but I figured if Lance was determined to stay, I might as well
|
||||
wait it out in style. So we paid 20 bucks for access to this upstairs "loft"
|
||||
space overlooking the stage. I immediately felt ripped off. Just a couple
|
||||
fat, drunk white guys with one dancer performing for them.
|
||||
|
||||
The torn leather couches were more comfortable than the chairs by the stage,
|
||||
but you would need a telescope to see the dancers from up there. I don't
|
||||
drink or smoke, so I just sat there with that simulated grin on my face while
|
||||
Lance lit up a cigar and knocked back another beer.
|
||||
|
||||
It occurred to me that this was becoming a pattern for me -- doing things
|
||||
sober that most men only do when they're drunk. If I had been drunk, I would
|
||||
have been able to overlook all the little details I'm revealing to you now.
|
||||
I'm sure with a few beers in me, my visit to the strip bar would have been a
|
||||
magical, tender experience, filled with whispered promises and come-hither
|
||||
looks.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, I went through the whole thing stone sober, peering carefully to try
|
||||
and find the cables and plaster that held up the set. I got a good journal
|
||||
entry (I almost said "column.") out of the deal, but I suspect that sometimes
|
||||
it's best to just let it go and ignore the man behind the curtain.
|
||||
|
||||
I felt like the geeky bastard in the front row at a Star Trek movie, pointing
|
||||
out errors in the special effects.
|
||||
|
||||
I've never been able to "just let go" at any other time in my life, why should
|
||||
this be any different?
|
||||
|
||||
Fortunately, the highlight of my evening was yet to come. Two of the other
|
||||
dancers joined us upstairs, and things got a bit more interesting. Their
|
||||
names were Ashton and Scarlett. (Yeah, I know. Their real names were
|
||||
probably Ernestine and Beatrice, but I don't think a guy who calls himself
|
||||
Jaffo should throw stones.) Ashton was a lovely pale blonde with a quirky
|
||||
sense of humor and Scarlett was a perky brunette with a mischievous attitude.
|
||||
(Scarlett also had a couple shots of tequila in her. It seemed to help.) You
|
||||
could tell Ashton had been doing this for a while. She knew how to work the
|
||||
customers and she seemed to really enjoy talking to us. At that point, I was
|
||||
just glad to have somebody to talk to. The hardest thing about the
|
||||
conversation was trying to think up questions nobody had asked her before.
|
||||
|
||||
I was determined not to repeat any of the stupid cliches, so I asked her,
|
||||
"What's the weirdest thing you ever saw a customer do?"
|
||||
|
||||
Remember, my primary goal for the evening was not to look like a fool. I
|
||||
figured the best way to avoid embarrassment was to shift the conversation to
|
||||
people who were even more pathetic than me. That way, even if I said
|
||||
something stupid, I would still look good by comparison. It seemed to work.
|
||||
After a short period of strained conversation, she asked if we wanted a lap
|
||||
dance. She even offered us a double. Apparently, Ashton and Scarlett work
|
||||
together frequently.
|
||||
|
||||
I was running low on cash at that point, so Lance paid for half of it and I
|
||||
got to enjoy a dance from two women at once. I was skeptical about the price,
|
||||
but they had a whole routine worked up, and they seemed comfortable working
|
||||
together. Like I said, Ashton knew how to work the customers.
|
||||
|
||||
I suspect that's as close as I will ever get to two simultaneously naked
|
||||
women.
|
||||
|
||||
We stayed up there a while longer and I figured my evening was over. We were
|
||||
running low on cash and I had already seen more naked flesh in one day than I
|
||||
had seen in the previous 27 years. I was glad Lance had talked me into the
|
||||
"VIP Lounge," but it was getting late, and I was ready to go home.
|
||||
|
||||
But we weren't leaving as long as Lance had cash and beer left.
|
||||
|
||||
I just kicked back and watched the girls dance for other fat morons in the
|
||||
lounge. Later, Marilyn came up to talk to us. I got a chance to compliment
|
||||
her music and presentation. She said the other girls made fun of her music.
|
||||
I assured her that the customers were pleased.
|
||||
|
||||
I can see the patterns forming already. The Boomers have been trained to
|
||||
automatically buy anything that uses John Lennon or the Rolling Stones as
|
||||
background music, and in 10 years, I'll be buying all kinds of crappy products
|
||||
because the commercials used Van Halen and Rick Springfield. I'll be no
|
||||
better than my parents -- a slave to my demographic. Just one refrain of
|
||||
"Jesse's Girl" and I'm lost in a high school flashback, wondering what
|
||||
happened to Margo and that cute girl who ran the school paper.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm too young to be lamenting my lost youth, so I'll stop whining now.
|
||||
|
||||
- Advice for Younger Men -
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a few tidbits of wisdom for those of you who haven't been to a strip
|
||||
bar yet. This is what I wish people had told me before I went.
|
||||
|
||||
First, be a good customer. The dancers don't love you. The dancers don't
|
||||
hate you. The dancers don't want to be your girlfriend and they don't want to
|
||||
go home with you. They just want to dance, collect some cash, and go home.
|
||||
Like anybody else, they want to have a good time at work, but having a good
|
||||
time is secondary to collecting the cash. Remember, you're only as funny as
|
||||
the cash in your pocket.
|
||||
|
||||
You're not just paying the dancers to get naked for you. You're also paying
|
||||
them to pretend you're interesting. The same reason you tip a pretty
|
||||
waitress.
|
||||
|
||||
Getting a lap dance is a lot like getting a haircut. Everything will be fine
|
||||
as long as you don't move. If you have trouble holding still during the
|
||||
procedure, pretend the women are holding scissors.
|
||||
|
||||
Learn the difference between fantasy and reality. The strippers aren't all
|
||||
money-grubbing dope fiends, and they aren't all soiled doves with hearts of
|
||||
gold. Either way, it doesn't matter. Just pay your money, enjoy the show,
|
||||
and get the hell out.
|
||||
|
||||
Leave before the glitter wears off. Don't stay too long at a strip club. If
|
||||
you stay too long, the girls start to get tired and drunk. If you're sober
|
||||
when you start, you'll get too drunk and they'll have to carry you away. And
|
||||
if you get drunk too early, you'll sober up if you stay too long. Then you'll
|
||||
start to notice the tawdry little details I wrote about above. Stay long
|
||||
enough to pick the prettiest dancer and pay for a lap dance. Then get up and
|
||||
go home. If some guy with a broom asks you to pick up your feet during a
|
||||
show, you've stayed too long.
|
||||
|
||||
I can't stress this one enough. Going to a strip club is a vacation, not a
|
||||
lifestyle. A little suspension of disbelief is good. But don't spend too
|
||||
long in the fantasy. It's good to be funny and sexy and spoiled for a couple
|
||||
hours, but don't delude yourself. You're not going to take any of these girls
|
||||
home to meet the family. Seeking emotional satisfaction at a strip club is
|
||||
like living on Ramen noodles. They'll tide you over for a while, but they're
|
||||
no substitute for real food. I don't know why so many men develop emotional
|
||||
attachments to strippers. I suspect this is a carryover from the days when
|
||||
women only got naked if they loved you.
|
||||
|
||||
- Sidney -
|
||||
|
||||
I am reminded of a story Rusty told me about a trip to Six Flags. He was
|
||||
standing in line with a church group when he saw this girl across the park,
|
||||
standing in another line. She was wearing a little black dress, black
|
||||
sneakers, and she had a little black bow in her hair.
|
||||
|
||||
Rusty said there was no conscious thought involved. As soon as he saw her,
|
||||
his mind reverted to a primitive, atavistic state and he growled,
|
||||
"Womaaan...." in a deep caveman voice.
|
||||
|
||||
I didn't truly understand that story until last night.
|
||||
|
||||
I'll come clean with you. Part of this trip was a philosophical exercise. I'm
|
||||
a Libertarian. I'm an Atheist. I don't believe sex is evil, and I don't
|
||||
think there's anything wrong with single men looking at naked women. Hell,
|
||||
I've even decided prostitution can be healthy, in some circumstances. But
|
||||
while I have accepted these things intellectually, I hadn't really broken free
|
||||
of my repressed Christian programming.
|
||||
|
||||
I wanted to go to a strip bar so I could challenge some of my inhibitions -- a
|
||||
rite of passage into manhood, nine years too late.
|
||||
|
||||
And there was another reason. The driving force in my life is a quest for
|
||||
dignity. I fear humiliation more than anything else in this universe. Maybe
|
||||
even more than death. I place a high value on composure and dignity, and I
|
||||
try to appear calm and "in control" at all times.
|
||||
|
||||
I've been working on this for so long, I can handle almost anything without
|
||||
losing my cool. I can fall down stairs, smack my head into metal pipes, drop
|
||||
entire pizzas on the floor, and handle almost any kind of romantic or sexual
|
||||
faux pas.
|
||||
|
||||
Part of this experience was an exercise in deprogramming, and part of it was a
|
||||
test of my composure. I wanted to see if I could handle my first time in a
|
||||
strip club without being goofy, awkward, shy, or pathetic.
|
||||
|
||||
I consider this trip a success because I was able to keep my cool. In fact, I
|
||||
got over the initial shock so fast, I was a little disappointed.
|
||||
|
||||
After that brutal dance from Ashton and Scarlett, I figured I was home free.
|
||||
If that couldn't shake me, I figured I was unshakable. Well done! Good
|
||||
show! Pat on the back! Stiff upper lip! Time to go home!
|
||||
|
||||
I took down my guard at that point, so I wasn't ready when Sidney knocked me
|
||||
on my ass.
|
||||
|
||||
* I could have handled the crisp white schoolgirl uniform, tied to expose
|
||||
her midriff.
|
||||
* I could have handled the green tweed skirt, riding up over a black
|
||||
garter.
|
||||
* I could have handled the lush auburn hair, cascading over her shoulders.
|
||||
* I could have handled the ring in her bellybutton, glittering like the
|
||||
star on a Christmas tree.
|
||||
* I could have handled the sweet young face and big brown eyes.
|
||||
* I could even handle the little tattoo in the small of her back.
|
||||
|
||||
But you put all those things together in one package, and I experience a
|
||||
reaction very similar to Rusty's caveman reversion, so many years ago. One
|
||||
look at Sidney and I lost my mind. I laid 20 bucks on that table so fast, I
|
||||
think it caught fire on the way down.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm a pretty tough customer these days. Jaded and a little bitter.
|
||||
Disillusioned about love and sex and women and just about everything else.
|
||||
The whole universe is like a pathetic black comedy, laid out for my amusement.
|
||||
Endless shades of black depression and gray boredom. It's nice to know
|
||||
there's still something out there that can get my attention and make me take a
|
||||
second look.
|
||||
|
||||
I saw a lot of beautiful women last night, stored up a lot of good memories
|
||||
and broke down a lot of inhibitions. But I think Sidney's memory will last a
|
||||
while longer, long after the rest of Monday night has faded away.
|
||||
|
||||
Just so you know.

|
||||
|
||||
erin and i decided that we'd go to see the red sox massacre the rangers on
|
||||
saturday and this is how the story goes...
|
||||
|
||||
first of, i was led into believing that pedro was going to be pitching on
|
||||
saturday so i was way stoked but then i found differently...in fact, i found
|
||||
that nomar and manny were not as playing as well...so i put on my red sox hat
|
||||
(and urged dallas-native cutie erin in the same venture, to no avail)...we
|
||||
found our places (conveniently on the third base side so red sox fans had
|
||||
gathered heavily around me and i felt somewhat secure)...our plan was to watch
|
||||
the game that started at 7:05 and travel back to tyler that night and arrive
|
||||
in time for a good night sleep before i go into work 9am this morning...
|
||||
|
||||
with me?
|
||||
|
||||
okay soooooooooooo, the teams went back and forth--a passionate battle--
|
||||
red sox had to win in order to keep good position in the wild card race and
|
||||
stay close behind the hated yankees (no offense yankee fans--i can't stand
|
||||
you)...and no one told me that they shot off superpyrotechnics when the
|
||||
rangers hit a homerun--MUCH TO MY SURPRISE...first ranger homerun i about
|
||||
bolted out of my seat and plummeted to the earth below (which was far down
|
||||
from our seats--bob eucker seats)...salty pretzel, soggy nachos, just me and
|
||||
my sweet erin and the kid that kept making anti-red sox exclamatories behind
|
||||
me...i was about to recruit some of the boston fans nearby to join me in going
|
||||
up and embarrassing this kid in front of his parents, but opted otherwise...
|
||||
|
||||
then it comes down to the ninth inning, still with me? (check the box
|
||||
score for accurate tracking of the game--it really was exciting game)...
|
||||
|
||||
the normal length game of nine innings ends in a tie which means: EXTRA
|
||||
INNINGS...excellent! i'm a bargain shopper and when you pay 8 bucks for
|
||||
parking and 15 a pop for tickets, extra innings isn't such a bad thing...but,
|
||||
unfortunately, no one told me (or i didn't get the memo) that the game was
|
||||
going to last 18 innings! now, for the mathematically imbalanced, that would
|
||||
be double the length of a normal game...and, well, my mind's telling me that
|
||||
since i waited until august to catch a red sox game in arlington, even at the
|
||||
risk of totally turning off my girlfriend, WE'RE STAYING...(all you need to
|
||||
know here can be obtained from reading the four capitalized words in this
|
||||
paragraph--i just noticed that).
|
||||
|
||||
oops, i'm gonna rewind for a second...rewind to about the fourteenth
|
||||
inning...as the fans start to flush out, leaving seats closer to the action,
|
||||
erin and i start to migrate towards homeplate...as we moved to the edge of our
|
||||
level, aside us sat a crew of about 5 twelve year old girls and they're asking
|
||||
us if we're there to get on the camera (the jumbotron--the big ol 30 foot
|
||||
television viewable to everyone in the stadium)...um, yeah, of course we
|
||||
were...and i don't really remember what the song was, but thanks to the
|
||||
annoying shrieking of the girls beside erin and i, we caught the attention of
|
||||
a guy with a camera on the level below...he swings his camera around and zooms
|
||||
in on the seven of us...and, i don't know what came over me, but i lifted my
|
||||
shirt to expose my bare hairy belly (which i proudly puffed out) and then i
|
||||
proceeded to slap my belly while i was broadcasted to the entire stadium via
|
||||
the jumbotron while erin danced innocently beside me and the girls beside me
|
||||
didn't notice what i was doing until they looked at the screen and saw my
|
||||
belly shaking on what was about two and half stories of screen erected high
|
||||
above the ballpark at arlington...i got a kick out of it, erin didn't...i
|
||||
apologized and then the girls next to me began snickering about me and my
|
||||
stunt...i laughed it off...then, one of the girls next to me asked me where i
|
||||
was from because i looked vaguely familiar (no, she didn't say "vaguely" or
|
||||
"familiar" but something close to that)...i told her that i moved to tyler
|
||||
from lubbock and blah, blah, blah...and, then, just a friendly reply to her
|
||||
inquiry, i asked her where she was from and she said, "er, um, well, we, uh,
|
||||
live about five hours from here"...obviously, something was up, so i asked her
|
||||
what town...she said, "uh, well, i don't know" and then she asked her friend,
|
||||
"what town are we from?" and they began whispering to each other...simple
|
||||
question for a twelve year old, right? well, apparently this little girl that
|
||||
was so welcoming and friendly when erin and i first got down there had thought
|
||||
that i was prying...all the sudden, i turn into that creepy guy that your
|
||||
parents tell you not to talk to...i know you've seen the afterschool special
|
||||
i'm talking about...yeah, that was me, the eerie guy with sideburns that goes
|
||||
around talking to little girls and gets chased off by angry parents...well,
|
||||
no, obviously i wasn't trying to kidnap these kids, but i tell you: i'm only
|
||||
24 years old, but i went through a lot of revelations during my visit to the
|
||||
mirror in the bathroom...i am a little creepy looking...but, no, i wasn't
|
||||
trying to kidnap the girls...i was so insulted by the assumption that erin and
|
||||
i moved down a couple of more rows, much to the ease of the girls who thought
|
||||
they had just escaped the clutches of a serial killer...heh, whatever...at
|
||||
least their parents taught them well, but man, it wasn't like i was asking for
|
||||
their address! anyhow, someone console me...
|
||||
|
||||
oh yeah, the game!! okay, soooooooooooo, rangers set a record for the
|
||||
longest game in rangers history last night (timewise) and the red sox lost...
|
||||
and erin and i never got our question answered: HOW CAN YOU PAY A PLAYER 250
|
||||
MILLION DOLLARS AND STILL HAVE GAMES GO INTO THE 18TH INNING?...it's the
|
||||
thousand dollar question and i'm dying to know the answer...
|
||||
|
||||
we arrived safely back in tyler at 4:30 in the morning (hey, at least the
|
||||
traffic wasn't bad!) and i was at work 2 minutes late today at 9:02am...
|
||||
lovely...
|
||||
|
||||
okay, soooooooooo, how was y'all's weekend?

|
||||
|
||||
There are many common themes which span the gaps between different forms
|
||||
of art. These themes resonate throughout the musical, visual (paintings,
|
||||
sculptures), literary, and cinematic worlds. One theme common to works in
|
||||
many media is the forms of human suffering. For instance, _Zapata_, a
|
||||
painting by Jose Clemente Orozco, depicts the suffering of Mexican peasants at
|
||||
the hands of others in a similar fashion to that portrayed in the works of
|
||||
Franz Kafka. Likewise, the inception of George Orwell's _Animal Farm_ is much
|
||||
like Fritz Lang's _Metropolis_, a film depicting the suffering of the working-
|
||||
class man for the "good" of society. Fyodor Dostoevsky's _Crime and
|
||||
Punishment_ and Brutal Juice's "Doorman" deal with man's suffering for his
|
||||
crimes, his final acceptance of guilt, and finally his repentance. _Crime and
|
||||
Punishment_, first published serially in Russia in 1866, tells the story of a
|
||||
young man who kills a pawnbroker and over time comes to accept his guilt and
|
||||
seek absolution. "Doorman," first released on the album _How Tasty Was My
|
||||
Little Timmy?_ in 1991 (the actual version used in this discussion is from
|
||||
_mutilation makes identification difficult_, released in 1995 by Interscope
|
||||
Records), tells the story of a man committing a rape (or another equally
|
||||
heinous crime) before finally accepting his guilt and repenting. Though they
|
||||
come from different times and cultures, _Crime and Punishment_ and "Doorman"
|
||||
convey the same message.
|
||||
The works are very similar in plot structure. Both works have seven
|
||||
distinct parts ("Parts I-VI" and "Epilogue" in _Crime and Punishment_; three
|
||||
verses and three choruses and the spoken interlude in "Doorman"). The first
|
||||
part of each work deals with the actual crime. The second through sixth parts
|
||||
of each deal with the criminals' consciences and the attempts of others to
|
||||
influence them to repent. Both men respond in the same fashion to these
|
||||
attempts: Raskolnikov asks, "'I must give myself up?'" (361), as the criminal
|
||||
in "Doorman" asks, "They offer me salvation, but do I really want it?" In the
|
||||
epilogues of both works, the men finally realize the need for repentance.
|
||||
Raskolnikov accepts his guilt early in the Epilogue but does not actually
|
||||
repent until he has an epiphany: "[A]ll at once something seemed to seize
|
||||
him...at last the moment had come..." (471). He truly feels sorrow for his
|
||||
heinous act; he becomes a new man and realizes that it is time to move on.
|
||||
The criminal in "Doorman" repents during its own epilogue; the final chorus in
|
||||
which the word "Repent" appears thirteen times (three more than in any other
|
||||
refrain). As the epilogue progresses, the word becomes more intense. At the
|
||||
end of the song, the "Silence!" the man calls for finally arrives. He
|
||||
realizes that he truly must repent. The elements relating the gradual
|
||||
acceptance of crime in both works is also very much the same.
|
||||
Both works combine varying degrees of intensity during the journey to
|
||||
repentance. Dostoevsky's novel begins with a single idea: Raskolnikov's plan
|
||||
for the pawnbroker's murder. The narrative's intensity heightens and reaches
|
||||
its peak when he actually commits the murder. The intensity of the remainder
|
||||
of the novel stays constant as friends and acquaintances attempt to persuade
|
||||
him to admit his guilt. Raskolnikov's conscience makes him ill as he
|
||||
subconsciously wishes to accept his crime for what it is. The intensity again
|
||||
flares up as Raskolnikov embraces his guilt and repents. At the close of the
|
||||
novel, the intensity tapers off and returns to its original level.
|
||||
"Doorman" begins with a pair of guitars, starting softly. The tempo and
|
||||
volume increase quickly as bass guitar and drums are added, representing the
|
||||
actual crime. The tempo remains constant throughout the song's verses. The
|
||||
criminal's conscience continually warns him to "Repent," even taking the form
|
||||
of a serpent when he is in a dream-like state. As the song ends, the bass
|
||||
guitar and drums fade away and only a single guitar remains.
|
||||
The symbolism in both works is comprised of many common elements. In the
|
||||
novel, Raskolnikov's name is taken from the Russian "raskol," meaning to split
|
||||
asunder. His name represents the schism in his mind between knowing what is
|
||||
right and actually doing it. The Doorman, spoken of in the first verse of the
|
||||
song, represents a man's allowance of a similar schism to develop in his own
|
||||
mind. The Doorman clearly has let his guard down and allowed evil into the
|
||||
criminal's world. Religious symbols abound in _Crime and Punishment_, mainly
|
||||
in the person of Sonia, the novel's Christ-figure. The prisoners in Siberia
|
||||
"...even came to her for help in their illnesses" (469). Though Dostoevsky's
|
||||
work clearly shows his firm belief in Christianity, it also shows his
|
||||
criticism of that religion. In "Doorman," a traditional Christian story, the
|
||||
Garden of Eden, is corrupted in a Kafkaesque manner: "The apple in the tree,
|
||||
it hangs for me to pick / ... / But then the serpent comes, he tells me not to
|
||||
bother / It doesn't taste the way it looks..." Each work includes both
|
||||
Christian symbols and other symbols to add to the suffering motifs. The
|
||||
crimes themselves (and the motivation behind them) are also very similar. The
|
||||
wrongdoings of the criminals of each work, though different, are similar in
|
||||
motivation.
|
||||
Raskolnikov presents the "Superman theory," which states that certain
|
||||
people are above the law and "seek...the destruction of the present for the
|
||||
sake of the better" (227), as justification for his crime. He believes
|
||||
himself to be one of these "Supermen" and he thinks that the murder of the
|
||||
pawnbroker is justifiable by his own theory: he is somehow better than
|
||||
others. The criminal in "Doorman" seems to also think of himself as better
|
||||
than others. The motivation for rape is known often to be lust for power over
|
||||
another. Before committing the murder, Raskolnikov's conscience shows itself
|
||||
as he attempts to talk himself out of the murder: "'God, how loathsome it all
|
||||
is!" (7). His conscience cannot stop him from murdering the old woman and her
|
||||
sister, but it catches him later and leads to him to repent. The criminal in
|
||||
"Doorman" also seems to have a conscience about his crime. The warnings of
|
||||
his conscience echo those voiced by Raskolnikov: "She's not just some piece
|
||||
of meat / She's a human being, for crying out loud..." Like Raskolnikov,
|
||||
this man commits his crime in spite of his conscience and eventually is forced
|
||||
to pay the consequences for his action. The criminal in "Doorman" clearly has
|
||||
much in common with Raskolnikov.
|
||||
The moral lesson of Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment is proven to be
|
||||
applicable to today's society in other works of art, such as Brutal Juice's
|
||||
"Doorman". Though written more than one hundred years apart, the authors of
|
||||
each work wish for their respective audiences to understand the same message:
|
||||
it is only through the acceptance of guilt and repentance that a criminal can
|
||||
truly be rehabilitated. This message brings together two very different art
|
||||
forms from different time periods and distinct cultures. Though often
|
||||
regarded as merely noise (since it was a punk rock band), Brutal Juice is as
|
||||
artistic in their medium as Dostoevsky is in his. Society's understanding of
|
||||
the lessons taught by Raskolnikov and his counterpart in "Doorman" is a
|
||||
pivotal point in the ability of man to continue existing. Dostoevsky seems to
|
||||
ask, "What is the world coming to?" and, "What can we do about it?" in _Crime
|
||||
and Punishment_. It is a sad commentary on society that Brutal Juice and
|
||||
others still ask the same question after so much "progress." It is
|
||||
notable, though, that Brutal Juice asks the question a little louder than
|
||||
Dostoevsky did. Heh.

Breed_x n' I went to go see a show tonight. Ended up leaving before the
|
||||
band started, as they seemed to be some crappy rock band. We wandered around
|
||||
a bit on the block or so of the Depot. Settled on Frank N' Steins, where we
|
||||
had bad beer and a bad band. Just your typical local band, playing typical
|
||||
covers. At one point I was joking around and threatened to throw Breed's ash
|
||||
tray if they played a Creed song, and then three songs later they played one.
|
||||
I'm such a wuss. They deserved to have an ash tray thrown at them. The
|
||||
guitarist really wanted us to stick around, so we did on the condition that
|
||||
they play no more Creed. I decided that Creed is actually a plot by the devil
|
||||
to make christianity look bad. Anyway. Music sucked, beer sucked, but there
|
||||
were tons of hot chicks for which I had no chance with and that Breed had no
|
||||
real interest in, being happy in his engagement. Here's some nice quotes that
|
||||
I overheard between band sets:
|
||||
|
||||
"I'm not just any minor, I'm a cute minor"
|
||||
|
||||
"I'm old, I'm 22"
|
||||
|
||||
Ok, so my seeing the silliness of that last quote might seem kind of
|
||||
hypocritical with my last file about feeling old, but I think I understood the
|
||||
irony of the statement on a level that this guy that I overheard does not.
|
||||
Anyway. It was a fun night despite the generic nature of our entertainment.
|
||||
I'm dj'n tomorrow, and should be free of the playlist, so I'm going to attempt
|
||||
to do an obscure show. Play some b-side stuff and just stuff that generally
|
||||
isn't played. It will probably suck.

Not so long ago, right here in our scuzz-bucket of a galaxy, three movies
|
||||
changed the world. Now, the STAR WARS saga is continuing, and we're here to
|
||||
get our names associated with it in any way we can. That's right, "GwD: The
|
||||
American Dream with a Twist -- of Lime" is continuing in its self-proclaimed
|
||||
role as THE unOFFICIAL STAR WARS E-ZINE. This here is the second
|
||||
installment, aptly titled,
|
||||
|
||||
"EPISODE II: The GwD STAR WARS Special STRIKES BACK."
|
||||
|
||||

To get your Star Wars name, do the following:

1) Start with the 1st 3 letters of your last name
|
||||
2) Add the first two letters of your first name
|
||||
3) Add the first two letters of your mother's maiden name
|
||||
4) Add the first two letters of the city in which you were born

----------------
|
||||
|
||||
-> a. 'STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE: THE ABRIDGED SCRIPT' by Rod Hilton
|
||||
|
||||
(Here is an abridged script for those people that had trouble following the
|
||||
plot of the movie.)
|
||||
|
||||
FADE IN:
|
||||
|
||||
INT. SPACESHIP
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM NEESON
|
||||
It is vitally important we enter trade negotiations with the federation.
|
||||
|
||||
EWAN MCGREGOR
|
||||
I agree. This one planet and how it trades with other planets is certainly an
|
||||
important enough topic to be the entire plot of a Star Wars film.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. SPACESHIP - MAIN DECK
|
||||
|
||||
EVIL ALIEN
|
||||
Werr. What wirr we do now? My evil, obviousry Asian race must prevair. I wirr
|
||||
not face de Jedi. Send de droid.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. SPACESHIP - BACK TO THE JEDI
|
||||
|
||||
A droid enters.
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM NEESON
|
||||
I sense a disturbance in the force.
|
||||
|
||||
EWAN MCGREGOR
|
||||
Well, shit.
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly, numerous pieces of CGI enter and begin attacking the Jedi. The Jedi
|
||||
use the high concentration of midichlorians in their bodies to use the force
|
||||
to destroy the CGI. They run outside.
|
||||
|
||||
EXT. NABOO
|
||||
|
||||
They run until they smack into some more CGI.
|
||||
|
||||
JAR JAR
|
||||
Who might you be?
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM NEESON
|
||||
(staring in the general direction of Jar Jar, but not really staring at him)
|
||||
I am a Jedi. There are bad things coming. Take me to your homeland.
|
||||
|
||||
JAR JAR
|
||||
I see. That is quite interesting. I will guide you to the land from which I
|
||||
have come.
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly, GEORGE LUCAS realizes the Jar Jar toys aren't selling well enough.
|
||||
|
||||
JAR JAR (cont'd)
|
||||
Oh! Meesa sorry! Meesa ment to saysa: Weesa can go back to Jamaica mon,
|
||||
okeyday?
|
||||
|
||||
EWAN MCGREGOR
|
||||
(staring at something right above Jar Jar)
|
||||
Good. Do you have a hotel room for me and Liam? We have..uh..Jedi business to
|
||||
attend to.
|
||||
|
||||
JAR JAR
|
||||
Weesa can smokesa some ganja, mon.
|
||||
|
||||
AUDIENCE
|
||||
Die. Die, Jar Jar. Nobody likes you.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. SPACESHIP - MAIN DECK
|
||||
|
||||
The queen appears over some kind of thing which appears to be better in
|
||||
technology than the kinds of things in the original trilogy.
|
||||
|
||||
NATALIE PORTMAN
|
||||
I am the queen. You've gone too far this time. I will tell the senate and you
|
||||
will be in a lot of trouble.
|
||||
|
||||
EVIL ALIEN
|
||||
I'm so sorry, Amidala.
|
||||
|
||||
NATALIE PORTMAN
|
||||
No, no, I'm Padme now.
|
||||
|
||||
EVIL ALIEN
|
||||
I thought when in the makeup, you were the queen.
|
||||
|
||||
NATALIE PORTMAN
|
||||
No, I'm whoever is playing the queen at the time. The voice changes don't help
|
||||
you figure this out.
|
||||
|
||||
EVIL ALIEN
|
||||
Stop trying to confoose me! Droids, capture the queen.. or Padme.. er.. just
|
||||
capture everyone!
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM and EWAN and, fuck, JAR JAR too take NATALIE PORTMAN and other members of
|
||||
her staff onto a ship and they escape. They go to Tatooine.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. TATOOINE - SOME SHOP WHERE JAKE LLOYD IS HELD SLAVE
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE LLOYD
|
||||
Hi there! Golly I'm cute.
|
||||
|
||||
NATALIE PORTMAN
|
||||
You certainly are, little boy.
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE LLOYD
|
||||
I'm the only one disturbed by the fact that I'm gonna bone you in episode two?
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM NEESON
|
||||
Jake, I need you to have a pod race so I can get the parts I need and free
|
||||
you.
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE'S MOM
|
||||
No, I won't allow him to pod race. He'll get hurt.
|
||||
(pause)
|
||||
Ok, I will. Nevermind. Good luck.
|
||||
|
||||
They pod race. It looks really COOL.
|
||||
|
||||
GEORGE LUCAS
|
||||
(attempting subtlety)
|
||||
Oh! Look! There's a video game of this scene... uh.. buy it! Hey, I had to
|
||||
sacrifice a part of my grand vision for these movies to include a part that
|
||||
could be turned into a game, so buy it or I'll do it even more in Episode 2.
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE wins! He has to leave his mother, which will become very important in the
|
||||
next movie. He also has to leave his protocol droid, THREEPIO.
|
||||
|
||||
AUDIENCE
|
||||
He built C-3PO? Why wasn't this ever mentioned in the original trilogy?
|
||||
|
||||
GEORGE LUCAS
|
||||
Because I just made it up. Speaking of stuff I'm just making up, how do you
|
||||
like the midichlorian bullshit I pulled out of my ass?
|
||||
|
||||
They all get into their ship and go to Coruscant.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. CORUSCANT - JEDI COUNCIL
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM NEESON
|
||||
I want to train this boy.
|
||||
|
||||
YODA
|
||||
Nope. Sorry. Too old the boy is. Clouded his future seems. Vague my worries
|
||||
are.
|
||||
|
||||
LIAM NEESON
|
||||
Well, he is the chosen one. He will bring balance to the force. I'm training
|
||||
him.
|
||||
|
||||
SAMUEL L. JACKSON
|
||||
Yoda told you no, muthafucka. What the fuck is wrong with you, bitchass? I'll
|
||||
fuckin' kill you! I'm gonna be a fuckin bad ass in the next two fuckin movies,
|
||||
you know. My toy has a fuckin lightsaber.
|
||||
|
||||
IAM NEESON
|
||||
I'm going to go over your head and train him myself, then. So there.
|
||||
|
||||
He exits.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. GALACTIC SENATE MEETING
|
||||
|
||||
IAN MCDIARMID
|
||||
Damn I'm evil.
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly, we see E.T! This does not make the film HYPER-CUTESEY like Return of
|
||||
the Jedi, but CLEVER.
|
||||
|
||||
EXT. NABOO
|
||||
|
||||
NATALIE PORTMAN
|
||||
I am either the queen or Padme now. Regardless, your cheesy-looking race of
|
||||
annoying, unrealistic characters need to ally with our badly acting race of
|
||||
creatures so we can capture this one guy.
|
||||
|
||||
BOSS NASS
|
||||
One guy? The climax of this film revolves entirely around us capturing one,
|
||||
pretty insignificant guy? Doesn't that make this whole thing kinda pointless?
|
||||
|
||||
NATALIE PORTMAN
|
||||
No more pointless than the fact that this entire film revolves around taxes on
|
||||
trade and the cutting off of one, pathetic little planet half-filled with
|
||||
annoying creatures.
|
||||
|
||||
They go after the bad guy or whatever. Who cares?
|
||||
|
||||
Finally DARTH MAUL shows up for a prolonged fight sequence. Darth wears black
|
||||
boots, a black cloak, a black shirt, has a red lightsaber, wears red and black
|
||||
face paint, and has horns. He is EVIL.
|
||||
|
||||
Meanwhile, the Naboo people go after this one insignificant guy and we really
|
||||
don't care.
|
||||
|
||||
Meanwhile, the Gungans go against a bunch of droids and we really don't care
|
||||
except we want the Gungans to die.
|
||||
|
||||
Meanwhile, Anakin takes off into space to join the space-battle, which is
|
||||
mostly over by the time he arrives. We care a little bit.
|
||||
|
||||
INT. SOME KIND OF THINGY WITH SOME RED FORCE FIELDS
|
||||
|
||||
MAUL, LIAM, and EWAN all have a huge lightsaber battle which has had a lot of
|
||||
effort put into the choreography and is thousands of times better than any
|
||||
other lightsaber battle in a Star Wars film.
|
||||
|
||||
AUDIENCE
|
||||
Whoa! This is really cool!
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly, we go back to one of the other three stupid battles going on at the
|
||||
time. Eventually, we return to the good one.
|
||||
|
||||
DARTH MAUL
|
||||
(menacing as hell)
|
||||
Grrr.
|
||||
|
||||
Eventually, MAUL stabs LIAM, which is very surprising, especially to those of
|
||||
us who bought the film score which has a song whose title gives away the
|
||||
ending. He then kicks EWAN into a shaft. EWAN grabs onto something on the side
|
||||
and holds on for dear life.
|
||||
|
||||
EWAN MCGREGOR
|
||||
Well, you certainly are an experienced fighter and there is little question
|
||||
you could kick pretty much anyone's ass.
|
||||
|
||||
DARTH MAUL (cont'd)
|
||||
Muahahahaha.
|
||||
|
||||
Slowly, EWAN uses the force to grab LIAM'S lightsaber, jump up out of the
|
||||
shaft, over MAUL, press the button on the saber, and slice MAUL in half while
|
||||
MAUL stands there like an idiot and does nothing at all. He dies.
|
||||
|
||||
EXT. SPACE
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE LLOYD
|
||||
Whoaaaaa! I'm in space! Now this is pod racing! Yipee! Uh oh! Man, I'm so
|
||||
cute.
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE goes into a hangar, where the main reactor for the ship is kept. He
|
||||
accidentally blows it to SHIT.
|
||||
|
||||
JAKE LLOYD (cont'd)
|
||||
Uh oh! I better leave! Let's leave Artoo!
|
||||
|
||||
They exit quickly. The ship explodes, which stops all the droids and just
|
||||
makes everything great, because it's always enjoyable when a serious conflict
|
||||
is resolved with a slapstick accident.
|
||||
|
||||
EXT. THE STREETS OF NABOO
|
||||
|
||||
The Gungans are dancing and such, still alive. A huge party ensues.
|
||||
|
||||
AUDIENCE
|
||||
Wow! Watching this party and all this celebration has convinced me that the
|
||||
tiny, pathetic problem that has been taken care of is actually really
|
||||
significant! Hooray!
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly, the AUDIENCE realizes that behind all the mindless celebration and
|
||||
kiddie cartoon bullshit, what actually happened was the future-emperor has
|
||||
actually manipulated everything, come into great power, and that one tiny
|
||||
problem has actually been resolved, but thousands more have been created.
|
||||
|
||||
GEORGE LUCAS
|
||||
Three years, suckers. I'd make them come out sooner, but I work very hard on
|
||||
my films, as I am an independant filmmaker due to my disgust with Hollywood's
|
||||
commercialism. Now go buy some Star Wars toys!

||||

|
||||
by Topfive.com
|
||||
|
||||
14> As if the girl-girl porno action weren't tacky enough, you can actually
|
||||
see the strings holding up the planets.
|
||||
|
||||
13> Somehow, R2-D2 manages to give Darth Maul the finger.
|
||||
|
||||
12> Right when Obi-Wan is about to whip out his "lightsaber," the screen goes
|
||||
blank and you have to put in another 50 cents.
|
||||
|
||||
11> Queen Amidala looks suspiciously like one of the Olsen twins.
|
||||
|
||||
10> As Leia Orgasma takes off her clothes, you realize you've stumbled into
|
||||
"The Phantom Moan-fest."
|
||||
|
||||
9> The "lightsaber duel" consists of nothing but two guys with Nerf baseball
|
||||
bats making lightsaber noises with their mouths.
|
||||
|
||||
8> None of the previews mentioned the evil Darth Diggler or queen Ches-Ti Ho.
|
||||
|
||||
7> The scene of the young Anakin Skywalker straddling his Pod Racer -- arms
|
||||
outstretched -- shouting, "I'm Lord of the Universe!" is just a tad
|
||||
derivative.
|
||||
|
||||
6> "Help me, Monica... You're my only hope!"
|
||||
|
||||
5> Leslie Neilsen as "Dark Mall"?! I don't friggin' think so!
|
||||
|
||||
4> Yoda looks awfully pale, and he keeps saying "Taco Bell, yo quiero."
|
||||
|
||||
3> "Starring Jerry Mathers as The Menace," just doesn't sound right.
|
||||
|
||||
2> Anakin Skywalker is played by a small black child whose only line is
|
||||
"Whatchu talkin' 'bout, Willis?"

LEIA: C-3PO has a rebel put aside for meeeee, for meeeeee,
|
||||
for MEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
|
||||
|
||||
(Stormtroopers start headbanging)
|
||||
|
||||
LUKE: So you say you're the dear old dad of mine?
|
||||
But you cut my hand off and left me to die!
|
||||
Oh Vader, can't do this to me, Vader.
|
||||
I know there's some good, I know there's still some good in you.
|
||||
|
||||
OBIWAN: May the Force be with you.
|
||||
Use the Force to see.
|
||||
May the Force be with you,
|
||||
May the Force be with you, alwaaaaaaaaaaaaays.
|
||||
|
||||
HAN: Anywhere the Force goes, doesn't really mat-ter,
|
||||
to meeeeeeee.

-> b. '21 reasons why Star Wars is better than Titanic' by Unknown Author
|
||||
|
||||
1. The Titanic is big, but it doesn't have hyperdrive.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Yoda could use the Force to lift Titanic out of the water.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Leia is a princess, a senator, a freedom fighter, and Jedi material; Rose
|
||||
is just marriage bait.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Ewoks throw better parties than either first class or steerage.
|
||||
|
||||
5. When flying towards the Titanic, Wedge can't say, "Look at the size of that
|
||||
thing!" and really mean it.
|
||||
|
||||
6. It would be much scarier to get chased around the boat by a raving madman
|
||||
with a lightsaber as opposed to a handgun.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Titanic is egalitarian by portraying poor people as sympathetic characters.
|
||||
Star Wars is egalitarian by promoting bug-eyed amphibians to Admiral.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Said bug-eyed amphibious Admiral manages NOT to lose his ship.
|
||||
|
||||
9. We know Cal is the bad guy because he sneers at the poor and treats his
|
||||
fiancee like property. We know Darth Vader is the bad guy because he
|
||||
strangles people and blows up planets for fun.
|
||||
|
||||
10. Yeah, Leo can dance, but can he fly an X-wing?
|
||||
|
||||
11. Rose braves icy water to rescue her man. Leia braves Jabba the Hutt.
|
||||
|
||||
12. There are always enough escape pods in Star Wars.
|
||||
|
||||
13. Do you know what the Empire does to self-proclaimed "kings of the world?"
|
||||
|
||||
14. If Luke were handcuffed to a pipe below decks in a sinking ship, he would
|
||||
use the Force to get the key.
|
||||
|
||||
15. "I'd rather be his whore than your wife," just doesn't have the same sting
|
||||
as "I'd rather kiss a Wookie."
|
||||
|
||||
16. Han is frozen in carbonite and turned into a wall ornament. Leo simply
|
||||
freezes.
|
||||
|
||||
17. Han Solo would've steered clear of that damn iceberg!
|
||||
|
||||
18. We knew the boat was gonna sink. But who could've anticipated, "Luke....I
|
||||
am your father."
|
||||
|
||||
19. Stormtroopers blast big holes in stupid minor characters; everyone in
|
||||
Titanic was a stupid minor character.
|
||||
|
||||
20. When Star Wars was proclaimed coolest movie of all time by half of planet
|
||||
Earth, George Lucas did not make a dork of himself at the Oscars.
|
||||
|
||||
21. Titanic morals:
|
||||
a. gamble,
|
||||
b. cheat on your husband,
|
||||
c. pose nude for pictures,
|
||||
d. premarital sex is OK if you're infatuated.
|
||||
|
||||
Star Wars morals:
|
||||
a. fight evil,
|
||||
b. do good,
|
||||
c. respect all life even if it's ugly and slithers,
|
||||
d. rescue princess,
|
||||
e. save planet.

|

----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
-> a. 'Missing Dialogue from THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK' by Unknown Author
|
||||
|
||||
Vader Strikes Back
|
||||
|
||||
There's going to be an extra scene included in the DVD release of EMPIRE
|
||||
STRIKES BACK coming up next year! Basically, it expands on the scene where
|
||||
Vader reveals his fatherhood to Luke, and ties up some loose ends created with
|
||||
the release of Episode 1...
|
||||
|
||||
The Empire Strikes Back: Extra-Special Edition
|
||||
|
||||
INT: BESPIN GANTRY - MOMENTS LATER:
|
||||
|
||||
A furious lightsaber duel is underway. DARTH VADER is backing LUKE SKYWALKER
|
||||
towards the end of the gantry. A quick move by Vader, chops off Luke's hand!
|
||||
It goes spinning off into the ventilation shaft. Luke backs away. He looks
|
||||
around, but realizes there's nowhere to go but straight down.
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father.
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: No... I am your father!
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: No, it's not true! It's impossible.
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Search your feelings... you know it to be true...
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: NO!
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Yes, it is true... and you know what else? You know that brass
|
||||
droid of yours?
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: Threepio?
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Yes... Threepio... I built him... when I was 7 years old...
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: No...
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Seven years old? And what have you done? Look at yourself, no
|
||||
hand, no job, and couldn't even levitate your own ship out of the
|
||||
swamp.
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: I destroyed your precious Death Star!
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: When you were 20! When I was 10, I single-handedly destroyed a
|
||||
Trade Federation Droid Control ship!
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: Well, it's not my fault...
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Oh, here we go... "Poor me... my father never gave me what I
|
||||
wanted for my birthday... boo hoo, my daddy's the Dark Lord of
|
||||
the Sith... waahhh wahhh!"
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: Shut up...
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: You're a slacker! By the time I was you're age, I had
|
||||
exterminated the Jedi knights!
|
||||
|
||||
Luke: I used to race my T-16 through Beggar's Canyon.
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Oh, for the love of the Emperor... 10 years old, winner of the
|
||||
Boonta Eve Open... Only human to ever fly a Pod Racer... right
|
||||
here baby!
|
||||
|
||||
Luke looks down the shaft. Takes a step towards it.
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: I was wrong... You're not my kid... I don't know whose you are,
|
||||
but you sure ain't mine...
|
||||
|
||||
Luke takes a step off the platform, hesitates, then plunges down the shaft.
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader looks after him.
|
||||
|
||||
Darth Vader: Get a haircut!

|
||||
|
||||
Ok all you green bleeders, just hang on a sec.
|
||||
|
||||
Seth is saying he feels older. Licious is talking about quality. Jaffo went
|
||||
to a nudie bar and good ol fastjack (whom I thought dead for a time) shows his
|
||||
pride and loyalty.
|
||||
|
||||
So what the hell?
|
||||
|
||||
Yeah, its an age thing, for the most part. It's a category more specifically.
|
||||
From early teens you want to hit 18 so bad it hurts. Then there's the magical
|
||||
21 and you turn into a booze-hound for a time. Then you hit 25, and your
|
||||
insurance drops in price (see, they think you're getting wiser with age).
|
||||
|
||||
Then you creep up on 30 - the end of life as you know it.
|
||||
|
||||
But its not. I call it "the great revelation".
|
||||
|
||||
This is where you take your life into account, and you see where it is, where
|
||||
you are heading, and where you ultimately want to be while still clinging onto
|
||||
the youthful activities of yesterday only now it starts to hurt a little more.
|
||||
30 is your wake up call - you take a step back, and you see how your character
|
||||
has developed through interaction with trials and tribulations (and of course
|
||||
you have to use the word 'smarmy' at least 4 times a week).
|
||||
|
||||
So what the hell?
|
||||
|
||||
I took 2 weeks off of work to get away for a while (and apply elsewhere -
|
||||
anywhere - dear god give me another job). And I went to a friend's house and
|
||||
we proceed to get 'tore-down.' Well, this little FUCK-WIT pulls up on a brand
|
||||
new Harley-Davidson Nightrain; it seems daddy has purchased his college boy a
|
||||
gift.
|
||||
|
||||
And I hated him from the jump.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, there are not many people on this rock called earth that love the symbol
|
||||
and shield more than I; in fact, I'd say I'm in the top 10. So, shitbird
|
||||
starts bitching about the bike after I compliment it.
|
||||
"Well, it just runs out of gas unexpectedly."
|
||||
|
||||
Ok NIMROD!!!! Theres a reserve tank on the bike for just such an event!!!!!!
|
||||
Did you read the owners manual??? No. So I proceed to show him the lever to
|
||||
switch from reserve to primary.
|
||||
|
||||
"Oh well, that's cool. This one just seems too loud though."
|
||||
|
||||
Start of eye twitch.
|
||||
|
||||
"Its got custom Screamin' Eagle pipes man. What did you expect?"
|
||||
|
||||
"Well it just doesn't run right."
|
||||
|
||||
"Gimme the damn key!"
|
||||
|
||||
(I was joking...I'd kick the piss out of someone for that little statement.)
|
||||
|
||||
So he hands it over and must have noticed my eyes widen: "You know how to
|
||||
ride right?"
|
||||
|
||||
Brian just laughed at him.
|
||||
|
||||
In that brief instant I knew what it was - there was an itch in my spirit that
|
||||
wanted me to throttle this little fuck. But I got a little gray on the muzzle
|
||||
now, so I just look at the opportunity to ride a Nightrain.
|
||||
|
||||
I took it around and up and down the block for a while. It had a carb kit on
|
||||
it too, I noticed that pretty quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
So I come back and say, "There's absolutely nothing wrong with this ride."
|
||||
During the ride, the short sleeve crawled up the arm to show the Harley
|
||||
tattoo.
|
||||
|
||||
"Well, of course you'd say that," (nodding to the mark on my arm) and then it
|
||||
hit.
|
||||
|
||||
"Listen you half-a-fag, if you're so ungrateful as to look at this gift as
|
||||
anything less than a godsend..."
|
||||
|
||||
At this point Brian just shoves a beer into my chest and says, "Ok, ok, here,
|
||||
relax."
|
||||
|
||||
So I get off my soap-box and just sit there in disgust.
|
||||
|
||||
Earn it. That's all I'm saying.

|
||||
|
||||
This here is a money-making scheme we developed. We hope you enjoy. It'll
|
||||
work for us, no doubt. If *YOU* try it, though, you might get arrested or
|
||||
even deported.
|
||||
|
||||
Phase I - White Slavery
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Kidnap lots and lots of white babies. You might ask, "Why white? Are you
|
||||
fuckers racist or something?" The answer to this is a resounding "No!"
|
||||
|
||||
Why white indeed...
|
||||
|
||||
We hear that white children (specifically, very young children, commonly
|
||||
called 'babies') fetch top dollar as slaves in the Sudan and the Western
|
||||
Sahara. That's why we want white kids. We'd kidnap other races (y'know,
|
||||
gooks and punjabs) if we could turn a profit.
|
||||
|
||||
Once we have made a significant profit in the white-slave trade, we will sell
|
||||
our slavery ring to our high school European History teacher, affectionately
|
||||
known as "Pillows." We will then move on to Phase II.
|
||||
|
||||
Phase II - Professional Gamblers
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Using the money we gleaned from selling cute little honkeys into slavery, we
|
||||
will set ourselves up as professional gamblers. We'll play nickel and quarter
|
||||
slots, mostly, but we'll dress flashy, hang out with trashy girls, and finagle
|
||||
our way into comp'ed suites at Las Vegas resorts. We'll be perpetually drunk
|
||||
(on comp'ed booze), and we'll have the best coke and smack flown in from South
|
||||
America for us and our trashy girls. We will reside in our comp'ed suites,
|
||||
winning nickel and quarter jackpots, until Linkin Park comes to Vegas on a
|
||||
tour.
|
||||
|
||||
Phase III - Linkin Park
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, Linkin Park. We don't really like Linkin Park, but they're an integral
|
||||
part of our scheme. Bob and Lobo somewhat resemble (if you squint and it's
|
||||
really dark outside) the two singers/rappers in this shitty band. Aww yeah.
|
||||
|
||||
When they come to Vegas, we'll use our ill-gotten gains to infiltrate the
|
||||
Linkin Park organization. Right before a show, we'll get those two chaches
|
||||
really stoned on our South American narcotics and send them to our white-
|
||||
slavery contacts in the Sudan (even though, we think, one of them may be
|
||||
chinkish). We will thus take the stage in the guise of Linkin Park. Our
|
||||
first acts, after miserably sucking at the show that night, will be to fire
|
||||
the other members of the band and to replace them with Pillows and the Schunk.
|
||||
|
||||
Linkin Park will thus be remade in our image, and we will exploit it for our
|
||||
own financial gain.
|
||||
|
||||
Phase IV - Repeat as Needed
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Uhh, yeah. The title is self-explanatory.

|
||||
|
||||
FROM OUT OF NOWHERE
|
||||
Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm
|
||||
You splash me with beauty and pull me down
|
||||
Cuz you come from out of nowhere (oh-whoa-oh)
|
||||
My glance turns to a stare
|
||||
Obsession rules me-I'm yours from the start
|
||||
I know you see me-our eyes interlock
|
||||
Cuz you come from out of nowhere (oh-whoa-oh)
|
||||
My glance turns to a stare
|
||||
One minute here and one minute there
|
||||
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
|
||||
One minute here and one minute there
|
||||
And then you wave goodbye...
|
||||
Sitting to the bottom, everyday for two
|
||||
All energy funnels, all becomes you
|
||||
Cuz you come from out of nowhere (oh-whoa-oh)
|
||||
My glance turns to a stare
|
||||
One minute here and one minute there
|
||||
Don't know if I'll laugh or cry
|
||||
One minute here and one minute there
|
||||
And it hurts inside
|
||||
One minute here and one minute there
|
||||
And then you wave goodbye
|
||||
(goodbye)
|
||||
|
||||
EPIC
|
||||
Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
|
||||
If you can't then it doesn't matter anyway
|
||||
You will never understand it cuz it happens to fast
|
||||
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
|
||||
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
|
||||
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
|
||||
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
|
||||
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
|
||||
You want it all but you can't have it
|
||||
(yeah,yeah,yeah)
|
||||
It's cryin', bleedin', a'lying on the floor
|
||||
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
|
||||
You've got to share it, so you dare it
|
||||
Then you bear it and you tear it
|
||||
You want it all but you can't have it
|
||||
(yeah,yeah,yeah)
|
||||
It's in your face but you can't grab it
|
||||
(yeah,yeah,yeah)
|
||||
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
|
||||
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
|
||||
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
|
||||
It's sad it happened and it's a shame
|
||||
You want it all but you can't have it
|
||||
(yeah,yeah,yeah)
|
||||
It's in your face but you can't grab it
|
||||
(yeah,yeah,yeah)
|
||||
What is it!?!
|
||||
It's it
|
||||
What is it?
|
||||
It's it
|
||||
What is it?
|
||||
It's it
|
||||
What is it?
|
||||
It's it
|
||||
(long musical interlude)
|
||||
What--is--it?!?
|
||||
It's it
|
||||
What is it?
|
||||
It's it
|
||||
What is it?
|
||||

|
||||
It's it
|
||||
(above two lines repeat 15 more times)
|
||||
|
||||
FALLING TO PIECES
|
||||
Back and forth, I sway with the wind
|
||||
Resolution slips away again
|
||||
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
|
||||
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
|
||||
Sometimes I think I'm blind
|
||||
Or I may be just paralyzed
|
||||
Because the plot thickens everyday
|
||||
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
|
||||
But I know, there's a picture beneath
|
||||
Indecision clouds my vision
|
||||
No one listens
|
||||
Because I'm somewhere in between
|
||||
O' my love and my agony
|
||||
You see, I'm somewhere in between
|
||||
My life is falling to pieces
|
||||
Somebody put me together
|
||||
Layin' face down on the ground
|
||||
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
|
||||
My eyes shut'n tight to avoid the sight
|
||||
Anticipating the end, losing the will to fight
|
||||
Droplets of "yes" and "no"
|
||||
In an ocean of "maybe"
|
||||
From the bottom, it looks like a steep incline
|
||||
From the top, another downhill slope o' mine
|
||||
But I know, the equilibrium's there
|
||||
Indecision clouds my vision
|
||||
No one listens
|
||||
Because I'm somewhere in between
|
||||
O' my love and my agony
|
||||
You see I'm somewhere in between
|
||||
My life is falling to pieces
|
||||
Somebody put me together
|
||||
Back and forth I sway with the wind
|
||||
Resolution slips away again
|
||||
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
|
||||
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark
|
||||
Sometimes I think I'm blind
|
||||
Or I may be just paralyzed
|
||||
Because the plot thickens everyday
|
||||
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin' away
|
||||
But I know there's a picture beneath
|
||||
Indecision clouds my vision
|
||||
No one listens
|
||||
Because I'm somewhere in between
|
||||
O' my love my agony
|
||||
You see I'm somewhere in between
|
||||
My life is falling to pieces
|
||||
Somebody put me together
|
||||
In between
|
||||
{(O' my love and my agony

|
||||
|
||||
SURPRISE! YOU'RE DEAD!
|
||||
Surprise! You're dead!
|
||||
Ha ha ha! Open your eyes
|
||||
See the world as it used to be when you used to be in it
|
||||
When you were alive and when you were in love
|
||||
And when I took it from you!
|
||||
It's not over yet
|
||||
You don't remember?
|
||||
I won't let you forget
|
||||
The hatred I bestowed
|
||||
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
|
||||
From my teeth and my tongue
|
||||
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
|
||||
Now you are mine
|
||||
I'll keep killing you until the end of time
|
||||
Surprise! You're dead!
|
||||
Guess what?
|
||||
It never ends
|
||||
The pain, the torment and torture, profanity
|
||||
Nausea, suffering, perversion, calamity
|
||||
You can't get away
|
||||
It's not over yet
|
||||
You don't remember?
|
||||
I won't let you forget
|
||||
The hatred I bestowed
|
||||
Upon your neck with a fatal blow
|
||||
From my teeth and my tongue
|
||||
I've drank and swallowed, but it's just begun
|
||||
Now you are mine
|
||||
I'll keep killing you until the end of time
|
||||
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
||||
Surprise! You're dead!
|
||||
Ah ha ha ha ha! Open your eyes
|
||||
Surprise! You're dead!
|
||||
Guess what?
|
||||
It never ends
|
||||
never ever ends!
|
||||
|
||||
ZOMBIE EATERS
|
||||
You're everything
|
||||
That's why I cling to you
|
||||
When I emerge
|
||||
My thoughts converge to you
|
||||
To you
|
||||
The world is so small
|
||||
Compared to you
|
||||
And everybody's wrong
|
||||
Compared to you
|
||||
To you
|
||||
I begin to see through your eyes
|
||||
All the former mysteries are no surprise
|
||||
So now you listen
|
||||
Cuz I'm omniscient
|
||||
Hey look at me lady
|
||||
Why I'm just a little baby
|
||||
You're lucky to have me
|
||||
I'm cute and sweet as candy
|
||||
As charming as a fable
|
||||
I'm innocent and disabled
|
||||
So hug me and kiss me
|
||||
Then wipe my butt and piss me
|
||||
I hope you never leave
|
||||
Cuz who would hear me scream?
|
||||
Nobody understands
|
||||
Except the toys in my hands
|
||||
So now you listen
|
||||
Cuz I'm omniscient
|
||||
Hey look at me lady
|
||||
I'm just a little baby
|
||||
If I smile, then you smile
|
||||
Then I'll get mad for awhile
|
||||
I melt in your mouth
|
||||
And in your hands whenever I can
|
||||
But I really do nothing
|
||||
Except kickin' and fussin'
|
||||
I like to make a mess
|
||||
I laugh at your distress
|
||||
I sit all day in my crib
|
||||
Absorbing all you give
|
||||
I'm helpless
|
||||
I'm flawless
|
||||
I'm a machine
|
||||
Give me!
|
||||
I need my toys
|
||||
WOW!
|
||||
Keep me hot
|
||||
Keep me strong
|
||||
Keep me ever-everlong
|
||||
Keep me hot
|
||||
Keep me strong
|
||||
Keep me ever-everlong
|
||||
Keep me hot
|
||||
Keep me strong
|
||||
Keep me ever-everlong
|
||||
Keep me hot
|
||||
Keep me strong
|
||||
Keep me ever-everlong
|
||||
Keep me hot
|
||||
Keep me strong
|
||||
Keep me ever-everlong
|
||||
So now you listen
|
||||
Cuz I'm omniscient
|
||||
|
||||
EDGE OF THE WORLD
|
||||
(snapping fingers)
|
||||
Do do do do
|
||||
Do do do do'n do do
|
||||
Come here, my love
|
||||
I'll tell you a secret
|
||||
Come closer, now
|
||||
I want you to believe it
|
||||
I'll tell you all the things
|
||||
You want to hear
|
||||
Don't worry baby
|
||||
There's nothing to fear
|
||||
Hey, little girl
|
||||
Would you like some candy?
|
||||
Look into my eyes
|
||||
I've seen it all
|
||||
Hand in hand
|
||||
Together we fall
|
||||
We'll sing and dance
|
||||
And we'll find romance
|
||||
And we'll stroll to the edge of the world
|
||||
Come sit right down
|
||||
Lay your head on my shoulder
|
||||
It's not the point
|
||||
That I'm forty years older
|
||||
You can trust me
|
||||
I'm no criminal
|
||||
But I'd kill my mother to be with you be with you be with you be with you
|
||||
Sing and dance
|
||||
And we'll find romance
|
||||
And we'll stroll to the edge of the world
|
||||
Give me a smile
|
||||
Let me see those pearlies
|
||||
I'll do an'thing
|
||||
For the little girlies
|
||||
(muffled kissing sound)
|
||||
(Nah nah nah nah is repeated, and the song fades away)
|
||||
|
||||
THE REAL THING
|
||||
I know the feeling
|
||||
It is the real thing
|
||||
The essence of the truth
|
||||
The perfect moment
|
||||
That golden moment
|
||||
I know you feel it too
|
||||
I know the feeling
|
||||
It is the real thing
|
||||
You can't refuse the embrace
|
||||
No!
|
||||
It's like the pattern below the skin
|
||||
You gotta reach out and pull it all in
|
||||
And you feel like you're too close
|
||||
But you swallow another dose
|
||||
The pinnacle of happiness
|
||||
Filling up your soul
|
||||
You don't think you can take any more
|
||||
You never wanna let go
|
||||
To touch the roots of experience
|
||||
The most basic ingredients
|
||||
To see the unseen glitter of life
|
||||
And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife
|
||||
Cherish the certainty of now
|
||||
It kills you a bit at a time
|
||||
Cradle the inspiration
|
||||
It will leave you writhing on the floor
|
||||
This is so unreal, what I feel
|
||||
This nourishment, life is bent
|
||||
Into a shape I can hold
|
||||
A twist of fate, all my own
|
||||
Just grit your teeth and make no sound
|
||||
Take a step away and look around
|
||||
Just clench your fist and shut your eyes
|
||||
Look deep inside, hypnotize
|
||||
The whisper is but a shout
|
||||
That's what it's all about
|
||||
Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray
|
||||
You will never let it slip away
|
||||
Like the sacred song that someone sings through you
|
||||
Through you
|
||||
Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into
|
||||
Into
|
||||
Like the dream you know one day will come to life
|
||||
Life
|
||||
Try to hold on just a little longer, longer
|
||||
Stronger, stronger
|
||||
It's the jewel of victory
|
||||
The chasm of misery
|
||||
And once you have bitten the core
|
||||
You will always know the flavor
|
||||
The split second of divinity
|
||||
You drink up the sky
|
||||
All of heaven is in your arms
|
||||
You know the reason why
|
||||
It's right there, all by itself
|
||||
And what you are, there is nothing else
|
||||
You're growing a life within a life
|
||||
The lips of wonder kiss you inside
|
||||
And when it's over the feeling remains
|
||||
It all comes down to this
|
||||
The smoke clears, I see what it is
|
||||
That made me feel this way
|
||||
I know the feeling
|
||||
It is the real thing
|
||||
The essence of the truth
|
||||
The perfect moment
|
||||
That golden moment
|
||||
I know you feel it too
|
||||
I know the feeling
|
||||
It is the real thing
|
||||
You can't refuse the embrace
|
||||
This is so unreal, what I feel
|
||||
Flood, sell your soul, feel the blood
|
||||
Pump through your veins, can't explain
|
||||
The element that's everything
|
||||
Just clench your fist and close your eyes
|
||||
Look deep inside, hypnotize
|
||||
Yes the ecstasy, you can pray
|
||||
You will never let it slip away
|
||||
Yes the ecstasy, you can pray
|
||||
You will never let it slip away
|
||||
You will never let it slip away
|
||||
You will never let it slip away
|
||||
Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after
|
||||
Like the first time love urged you to take its guidance, in silence
|
||||
Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying
|
||||
Like the way you cry for a happy ending
|
||||
Ending, ending
|
||||
(above line repeated a few times)
|
||||
I know the feeling
|
||||
It is the real thing
|
||||
(above line repeated a few times, then fades)
|
||||
|
||||
UNDERWATER LOVE
|
||||
Looking down into the water
|
||||
It's hard to make out your face
|
||||
If our love is drowning, then why
|
||||
Do I feel so out of place?
|
||||
Bubbling up to the surface
|
||||
Are you getting a breath of fresh air?
|
||||
Forever longing to make you mine
|
||||
But I can't escape your stare
|
||||
Liquid seeps into your lungs
|
||||
But your eyes look so serene
|
||||
It's wonderful how the surface ripples
|
||||
But you're perfect and I cannot breathe
|
||||
Forever longing to make you mine
|
||||
But I can't escape your stare
|
||||
Hold me closer, keep me near
|
||||
My underwater love
|
||||
Hold me closer, keep me near
|
||||
I'll never get enough
|
||||
Touch me from below
|
||||
I'll never let you go
|
||||
Touch me from below
|
||||
I'll never let you go
|
||||
Touch me from below
|
||||
I'll never let you go
|
||||
But I can't escape
|
||||
Hold me closer, keep me near
|
||||
My underwater love
|
||||
Hold me closer, keep me near
|
||||
I'll never get enough
|
||||
Hold me closer, keep me near
|
||||
My underwater love
|
||||
Hold me closer, keep me near
|
||||
I'll never get enough
|
||||
Touch me from below
|
||||
I'll never let you go
|
||||
(above two lines are repeated, and gradually fade)
|
||||
|
||||
THE MORNING AFTER
|
||||
Awakened by the sunlight
|
||||
Victimized by last night
|
||||
Memories flashin' through my head
|
||||
Was I just born or am I dead?
|
||||
Yesterday's forgotten, the morning after
|
||||
I can taste you, I can hear your laughter
|
||||
Fading in the distance
|
||||
Recollections drifting
|
||||
Bloodstains on my tattered clothes
|
||||
Each minute the fear grows
|
||||
If I could just lay down to rest
|
||||
I'm tired of searching for myself
|
||||
If I am dead, why can I feel such love?
|
||||
If I am dead, why am I dreaming?
|
||||
If I am dead, where do I go from here?
|
||||
If I am dead, why does this pain feel so good?
|
||||
Is this my blood dried upon my face?
|
||||
Or is it the love of someone else?
|
||||
It tastes so sweet, just like you used to
|
||||
So rescue me my love, splice us together
|
||||
I remember loving you so much
|
||||
But where are you, and where's your fatal touch?
|
||||
When I closed my eyes, was it my siesta?
|
||||
Did I encounter a darkness stronger than sleep?
|
||||
If I am dead, why can I feel such love?
|
||||
If I am dead, why am I dreaming?
|
||||
If I am dead, where do I go from here?
|
||||
If I am dead, why does this pain feel so good?
|
||||
I am thirsty for my sleep
|
||||
There are no answers anyway
|
||||
|
||||
There you have it. The first part of the GwD Songbook. How'd you like
|
||||
it? If enough of you like it, there's more where that came from. If enough
|
||||
of you don't like it there probably won't be any more lyrics files. I chose
|
||||
Faith No More because they are an official band, and because they kick ass.
|
||||
The Real Thing is available on Slash Records, and I strongly suggest that you
|
||||
all get it.

Ever wondered what porn stars mean by the sounds they make? Here are some
|
||||
sexual 'terms' you might find handy:
|
||||
|
||||
Approved GwD Terms/Sounds for Fucking
|
||||
-------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
"SKLUH" - This is a term for vaginal intercourse. It can be used as a
|
||||
substitute for moaning/grunting by the male, e.g. "Skluh...skluh...skluh"
|
||||
(said with each thrust).
|
||||
|
||||
"GLUH" - This term denotes oral sex, specifically fellatio. For example, when
|
||||
the girl is choking down that horsecock, she should make a noise that sounds
|
||||
like "gluh-gluh-gluuuhhhh."
|
||||
|
||||
"GLAAAAHHHHHHHHH" - This, my favorite term, is used for male-on-female anal
|
||||
sex. This term does not apply to male-male anal sex. Sorry, faggots.
|
||||
Lesbians, provided they use strap-ons, may use this term at their own risk.
|
||||
Proper usage is when the girl is taken by surprise. A little bit of the old
|
||||
unexpected backdoor delivery, if you will. Instead of "Whoops, it slipped,"
|
||||
one should exclaim "GLLLAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!" at the top of his lungs.
|
||||
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
The following terms ARE NOT APPROVED for usage by the powers that be in GwD.
|
||||
|
||||
***** USE AT YOUR OWN RISK *****
|
||||
|
||||
Deuterocanonical Sex Terms
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
"SKLAAAAHHHHHHH" - This term is similar to "GLAAAAHHHHHHHHH," only instead of
|
||||
replacing "Whoops, it slipped," it replaces "Whoops, it slipped from your ass
|
||||
into your mouth."
|
||||
|
||||
"BLAAAAHHHHH" - This is the noise you should make when you plant the
|
||||
proverbial "money shot" (or "chach shot," as the case may be - see Oscar the
|
||||
Pornographer's treatise on this matter in gwd86.txt) on your partner's face.
|
||||
|
||||
"GLIT" - This should be used after "GLAAAAHHHHH," in much the same method as
|
||||
one would use "SKLUH," only "GLIT" is said with each thrust of one's member
|
||||
into the anal cavity.

"Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made you out of fried chicken."
|
||||
|
||||
No, this isn't a Negroni masquerading as a Hebe. It is the song of the
|
||||
Jewlatto, the spotlight mixed race of the week. For those of you not in the
|
||||
know, the Jewlatto is the result of a union of the Negrous and Jewish races.
|
||||
While each race separately has endured derision and racism, the resulting
|
||||
Jewlatto enjoys only the most advantageous of the traits of the "afro-
|
||||
mentioned" races. While each race has been considered a regression of
|
||||
humanity, the Jewlatto is humanity's future. The face of the future sports a
|
||||
protuberant nose, DSLs (dick-sucking lips), and a "phat afro." Other physical
|
||||
traits of the Jewlatto include a mighty, athletic build and a fatty-lumpkin
|
||||
cock. Other than the nose, the Jewlatto possesses predominantly Negrous
|
||||
bodily characteristics, but this is offset by the mental inheritance from the
|
||||
Hebrewan parent. The Jewlatto will possess abundant natural intelligence as
|
||||
well as a "frugal" fiscal policy. Though the Jewlatto keeps a tight grip on
|
||||
his purse-strings, he will occasionally blow a lot of money souping up his
|
||||
ride and engaging the services of the "bitches and hoes." The Jewlatto's garb
|
||||
consists of a FUBU yarmulke and a girthy, diamond-studded Star of David (with
|
||||
a dollar-sign in the middle of it) on a gold chain. Sometimes amidst the
|
||||
curls can be found long Orthy locks. The Yid-kid (or "Levite") will be fluent
|
||||
in both Ebonics and Yiddish. He will listen to Two Live Jews and The Jew and
|
||||
His Motley Crew. Diet will consist of fried gefilte fish and watermelon,
|
||||
washed down with some kosher malt liquor. The Jewlatto is in rare form during
|
||||
the festive time of "Kwanzanakah." The Jewlatto's role models include George
|
||||
Washington Carverstein, creator of the fried peanut, and Shaniquah Streisand,
|
||||
the singing sensation. Based on our asinine but rigorous scientific research,
|
||||
we have found that the Jewlatto is more easily adaptable to the climate of the
|
||||
21st century than other passe racial mixtures such as the Hispanislopes,
|
||||
Pollwops, and "A-rabs."

|
||||
|
||||
My apartment is a mess.
|
||||
|
||||
There really is no question of how much of a geek I am, after one looks at my
|
||||
apartment. I impress the pizza delivery guys with my geek apartment. The view
|
||||
from the doorway is of my 19" equipment rack, which houses all my stereo
|
||||
equipment (Sony dolby/dts receiver, VCR, digital cable box), Chaos (my server,
|
||||
in it's nifty rackmount matte black case), my old 19" monitor (almost 5 years
|
||||
and still brilliant. Doesn't pay to skimp on monitors) and my center channel
|
||||
speaker stacked up high, on top of the rack. My front speakers are positioned
|
||||
about 4' to either side of the rack, my rear speakers in the ceiling corners
|
||||
opposite, and my sub just to the right of Entropy (my entertainment computer)
|
||||
which is to the right of the rack...yea, don't worry, the sub is shielded. Set
|
||||
above the sub, to the right of the rack is the excellent ChaosLAN sign that
|
||||
[Hallucination] made from an old satellite dish. Positioned just in front of
|
||||
the rack and to the left is my nifty forest green leather chair. I love that
|
||||
chair. My Mom had it redone in dark green just for me. Only problem is, the
|
||||
guys who re-did it forgot to make the bottom buttons vents, so if you sit down
|
||||
too hard in it, you'll fire a button off to some random corner of the room. I
|
||||
have a coat rack behind the chair and a coffee table at the left hand of the
|
||||
chair, where I set my laptop. Once you've stepped inside the doorway, you'll
|
||||
see the wires strung all over the place. In true geek-bachelor style, I've
|
||||
done little to hide the 12 gauge speaker wire and cat-5 cables that run all
|
||||
over my apartment. Under the turtle art my sister made and gave to me, is my
|
||||
ugly but surprisingly comfortable and frighteningly seductive pull-out brown
|
||||
couch. It is just in front of the door now, moved to the wall so I could have
|
||||
room for the dartboard & cabinet that [Priest] gave me, which is hung on the
|
||||
wall opposite, at an incorrect height, waiting to be adjusted. Under the dart
|
||||
board is my daystand, where I keep my cellphone charger (which is my only
|
||||
phone, I've eliminated the landline), an antique crystal change tray with a
|
||||
unicorn head carved in it (left to me by my great-grandmother), a rubber hand,
|
||||
and a beer coozey stuffed with pens and an American flag. To the left of my
|
||||
daystand, just past my hockey stick, is a shelf-unit thing that houses my
|
||||
video and DVD collection. On top of that rests my fish, alpha(.7), in a
|
||||
generally under-filled fish bowl with a black and white plastic
|
||||
under-water-plant-thing behind the bowl instead of in. On the front wall of
|
||||
the apartment is a coffee table passed to me from my parents through my
|
||||
sister, which is stacked with an eclectic collection of items, like a
|
||||
Spider-man book, and an old surveillance camera electric-taped to a power
|
||||
transformer, and filled with incense. Speaking of cameras, the old ChaosCAM is
|
||||
on the other side of the room, still attached to the servo (which allowed
|
||||
limited movement). The camera still works. I have no clue as to the current
|
||||
state of the servo. I should get that working again some day. I'll avoid the
|
||||
kitchen, because aside from the Creede Reperatory Theatre poster behind my
|
||||
kitchen table, it is most like any other kitchen. The downstairs 1/2 bathroom
|
||||
has no toilet paper, and the closet under the stairs is half filled with old
|
||||
computer monitors and an old lamp. The stairs head upstairs to where my full
|
||||
bath, office and bedroom are. Cat-5 and speaker cable run up the outside of
|
||||
the stairs to my office, to connect to my Bose bookshelf speakers and ethernet
|
||||
switch which sit upon my bookshelves, half obscured by all the books that have
|
||||
no more room inside the bookshelf. These books are composed mostly of Terry
|
||||
Pratchet and Kurt Vonnegut Jr. The other space in the bookshelf is taken by
|
||||
the green-monochrome monitors that are connected to the ChaosCam in the den,
|
||||
and the PorchCam on the porch, whose wire runs from the monitor to my bedroom
|
||||
window to down under the eaves on my porch. Across from the bookshelf in my
|
||||
office is my desk, which is an old door placed on two filing cabinets. The
|
||||
cabinet on the left is a plain old sheetmetal filing cabinet filled with old
|
||||
floppy disks and various computer accessories. The other filing cabinet is a
|
||||
pretty hardwood cabinet, and is filled with old financial documents, hardware
|
||||
and software manuals, and my porn stash. I don't know why I hide porn in my
|
||||
own apartment, being 23 and living alone, but I do. On my desk is an executive
|
||||
lamp which is plugged in through an X10 module that responds to a motion
|
||||
detector in my office. I have a lamp on my fish bowl downstairs which is also
|
||||
activated by the motion detector, although I don't remember why. Behind the
|
||||
lamp is a box which originally held candy cigarettes, (apparently used by
|
||||
Spider-Man) but now contains a plastic figure of Spider-Man. Next to the candy
|
||||
cigarrette box is a cell-phone/glasses cozy that is green and has a cat
|
||||
knitted on it. It was made by my friend [Purpldrgn] from New Jersey who I have
|
||||
not talked to for probably a year. I should really try and call her up again.
|
||||
On the other end of my desk are my computer monitors. One is just sitting on
|
||||
the desk, but the other is on an articulated arm that is bolted into the door
|
||||
(one of the advantages to having a desk surface that was cheap is you can
|
||||
drill holes in it). In front of the monitors are generally bills, old copies
|
||||
of past-important documents, old harddrives, old CDRs, and a Far-Side calendar
|
||||
that is apparently the last of the line in Far-Side off-the-wall calendars.
|
||||
There is an old phone that my old girlfriend Tracie got for me sometime when I
|
||||
was 15, so that I would use my phone line for telephone calls instead of my
|
||||
BBS. It is black and has a 'Sekrut Squirrel' sticker on it. I also generally
|
||||
set whatever book I am reading at the moment somewhere in this area, for when
|
||||
I am waiting for my comptuer to do something. The actual computer is now under
|
||||
my desk, along with my scanner and printer. My bedroom is cluttered. I have a
|
||||
double-closet that has miscellaneous junk (old paintball equipment, softballs,
|
||||
yo-yos) in boxes, my collection of computer hardware/software boxes that date
|
||||
back to '95, all along the floor. On the racks are a few articles of clothes,
|
||||
mostly jeans that don't fit anymore and shirts that I don't like anymore. The
|
||||
rest of my clothes are scattered about the floor. These are, for the most
|
||||
part, clean. I have a bad habit of just dumping my laundry basket out on the
|
||||
floor after I do laundry so I can haul the next batch of dirty clothes down to
|
||||
the washer. My dirty clothes are collected in two different boxes in the
|
||||
corner of the room behind my closet door. Along one wall I have a collection
|
||||
of isolated socks. And on the front wall, next to the window, my bed sits
|
||||
under a giant 'Mixed-Up' poster. Hanging from the ceiling in the corner over
|
||||
my bed is my reading lamp and only light source in the room aside from the
|
||||
closet light. At the foot of my bed is another sheet-metal filing cabinet
|
||||
filled with random things like discarded monitor stands and old walkmans. On
|
||||
top of the cabinet is my alarm clock/radio/phone, from which I use only the
|
||||
alarm clock. Next to that is the lava lamp my sister gave me for Christmas. It
|
||||
has blue water and green lava.

|
||||
|
||||
Have you never heard of Mongo Jones?
|
||||
|
||||
Mongo Jones was born in late 1997. His actual birthdate is unknown, as is his
|
||||
actual place of residence. He is somewhat of a distributed entity. Though
|
||||
only five years old, he is already 4'11" and encroaching on a deuce and a half
|
||||
(250 pounds for you stupid fucks). You may say to yourself, "How could this
|
||||
be? A child of only 5 years weighing so much. Who were the parents? What
|
||||
the fuck is going on? Child abuse!"
|
||||
|
||||
To see who the parents are, perhaps you should look in the mirror while
|
||||
comparing your once-willowy figure to an old High School yearbook. The
|
||||
"Freshman 15" inadequately describes the horrors of post-high school obesity.
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, my friends, Mongo Jones is YOU. And me. And all the others who have
|
||||
packed on the pounds since the glory days. While individually, we may call
|
||||
our fattishness by special names like "Lionel" (Lobo Licious's gut), "Nigel"
|
||||
(Ciacco the Hog's girth) or "Gaylord" (j3ph's belly), collectively, they are
|
||||
known as the infamous Mongo Jones. We have found through careful study that,
|
||||
despite the fact that most of us have graduated from college, Mongo continues
|
||||
to grow at an exponential rate. By the time we reach 30, Mongo Jones will be
|
||||
unstoppable. Or we'll all be morbidly obese. Perhaps our high school reunion
|
||||
will be held at the Fat Farm.
|
||||
|
||||

Look around at your friends from High School, and observe the protruding guts.
|
||||
|
||||
While you may not have contributed to Mongo Jones, you have most likely
|
||||
contributed to one of the following entities: Girthy Sam, Tubby Smith, Fatty
|
||||
Lumpkin, Bulbous Bill, or Hey-Hey-Fat Sarah.
|
||||
|
||||
The fattishness must be stopped. Or not.
|
||||
|
||||
We'd write more, but Mongo Jones needs to eat.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
One fundamental problem dominates every young man's life: how to maximize sex
|
||||
with minimal effort. As a nice guy, dating only brings sexual results after
|
||||
multiple outings and a large sum of cash.
|
||||
|
||||
Dinner+movie ($60) x 3 dates = $180. Approximate sexual encounters = 0-1.
|
||||
|
||||
Yeah, that's right, paying $180 for one sexual encounter. And that's if
|
||||
you're lucky, or she's really drunk. Well, and then there's Rohypnol, but
|
||||
that's another file. Clearly, this is not an efficient means for procuring
|
||||
sex, but it's all most men know. I would like them to consider the following
|
||||
alternative:
|
||||
|
||||
1 Hour with Prostitute = $50-150
|
||||
|
||||
Helpful hints include:
|
||||
---Claiming to be a virgin, where you might get an extra 30 minutes for free.
|
||||
|
||||
Critical factor: sex is guaranteed, not merely a hopeful fantasy.
|
||||
|
||||
Consider your first sexual encounter with the average broad: missionary style,
|
||||
in the dark, under the covers, no money shot, and no cross-dressing. Also the
|
||||
likelihood of mouth-to-genital contact is minimal, and reciprocation is
|
||||
expected. The prostitute offers endless possibilities of sexual diversity,
|
||||
and the likelihood of mouth-to-genital contact is extremely high without need
|
||||
for reciprocation. Delivery of the money shot is encouraged.
|
||||
|
||||
Only known drawbacks: illegality, STDs, social stigma, and social stigmata
|
||||
(see my upcoming treatise on this topic). All of these can be remedied,
|
||||
except for the social stigmata, by legalization and government regulation of
|
||||
the world's oldest profession. The primary reason for continued
|
||||
criminalization is the perceived breakdown of the nuclear family. One reason
|
||||
for long-term relationships/marriage is continued access to easily obtainable
|
||||
coitus. With legalized prostitution, men won't have to put up with women's
|
||||
bullshit to gratify their urge for spicy asian poontang or to eat EZ-Cheese
|
||||
off of someone's nipple (Cheese-Boy, I'm talking to you).
|
||||
|
||||
To get in on this sweet deal, write your congressman and move to Hawaii.
|
||||
Isn't that where gay marriage is legal? Shit, those Hawaiians will legalize
|
||||
anything.

As you go into new
|

places, people, and times
|
||||
Remember yourself -
|
||||
a boy who insisted wearing ties in school photos,
|
||||
who grew into a stubborn black
|
||||
with long stringy hair
|
||||
in his face.
|
||||
And then emerged
|
||||
a little more wary
|
||||
but can still play and laugh
|
||||
with the best of children.
|
||||
|
||||
As you go
|
||||
Remember your friends -
|
||||
because you were selective
|
||||
yet open,
|
||||
choosing those as strange as yourself
|
||||
with their own beats in their heads
|
||||
all searching for greener worlds
|
||||
to dominate.
|
||||
|
||||
As you go
|
||||
Remember your family
|
||||
who always have your back.
|
||||
Even when you feel heavy
|
||||
and can't imagine letting anyone else
|
||||
carry the weight,
|
||||
know that you are buoyant
|
||||
among those who love
|
||||
your presence in their lives.
|
||||
|
||||
As you go
|
||||
Remember to look back
|
||||
at those waving good-bye...

[Uhh, this is a decision written for a Conflicts of Law class. It's
|
||||
fictional, yo. I think. Fair use, my friends, fair use. Do same-sex couples
|
||||
who get married have a divorce remedy in a state that doesn't allow gay
|
||||
marriage? Well, do they?!? Hmm... -Ed.]
|
||||
|
||||
I. Procedural History
|
||||
|
||||
Plaintiff appellant Near and defendant appellee Etheridge were joined in
|
||||
marriage in a same-sex union in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 2003.
|
||||
Plaintiff Near brought suit there in 2007, seeking a declaratory judgment that
|
||||
the marriage was valid outside the Commonwealth. The judgment was granted,
|
||||
and later affirmed by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. The couple
|
||||
moved to Washington in 2009, where they continue to reside. The parties
|
||||
separated in 2019, and shortly thereafter Near brought divorce proceedings
|
||||
against Etheridge, asking for alimony and equitable distribution of property
|
||||
owned by both parties during the relationship.
|
||||
The trial court held that the marriage is not valid under Washington law,
|
||||
and that there is therefore no divorce remedy for same-sex couples in
|
||||
Washington. Plaintiff Near appeals the trial court's dismissal to this Court.
|
||||
|
||||
II. Full Recognition under Full Faith and Credit
|
||||
|
||||
Plaintiff Near contends that Article IV of the United States Constitution
|
||||
compels this Court to recognize their marriage, which is presumptively valid
|
||||
in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The traditional conflicts rule that
|
||||
looks to the law where the marriage was created is called into question by a
|
||||
federal statute, the Defense of Marriage Act, and Washington's statute
|
||||
prohibiting recognition of marriages between persons other than a male and a
|
||||
female. See 28 U.S.C. 1738C; see also Wash. Rev. Code 26.04.020.
|
||||
The full faith and credit doctrine is necessary under a federal system to
|
||||
allow sovereign jurisdictions to fully enforce their own laws. Generally, the
|
||||
acts of a sister state are given their full effect so long as those acts are
|
||||
valid in the original state. See _In re Marriage of Effert_, 723 P.2d 541,
|
||||
544 (Wash. Ct. App. 1986). The federal Defense of Marriage Act purports to
|
||||
create an explicit exemption by allowing the sort of explicit rejection of
|
||||
foreign same sex marriages in Washington's code. These exceptions seem
|
||||
grounded in a sentiment opposed to same sex marriages. In the absence of any
|
||||
other justification for creating an exception to the full faith and credit
|
||||
requirements of Article IV, the intention seems to be to exempt same sex
|
||||
marriages from Article IV as repugnant to public policy. Washington law
|
||||
directs courts to look to "constitutional, statutory, or regulatory
|
||||
[provisions]" as a source of public policy. _Thompson v. St. Regis Paper
|
||||
Co._, 685 P.2d 1081, 1089 (Wash. 1984).
|
||||
If construed as public policy exemptions, then the Washington and federal
|
||||
statutes must be disregarded by this Court. Courts are not permitted to
|
||||
perform public policy analyses on the acts of other states. "A court
|
||||
enforcing the judgment of a sister state does not engage in an inquiry as to
|
||||
whether the judgment of the sister state contravenes the policy of the
|
||||
enforcing state." _Washington v. Bush_, 9 P.3d 219, 225 (Wash. Ct. App.
|
||||
2000). See also _Fauntleroy v. Lum_, 210 U.S. 230 (1908). Although the
|
||||
Washington law seems to be an explicit statement of public policy, this Court
|
||||
is prohibited from using it as such in a choice of laws context.
|
||||
An alternate and equally plausible theoretical underpinning for the
|
||||
federal and state statutes is a states' rights principle intended to allow
|
||||
each state to enact and enforce its own regulations of marriage. Article IV
|
||||
grants Congress the power "by general laws [to] prescribe the manner in which
|
||||
such acts, records, and proceedings shall be proved, and the effect thereof."
|
||||
U.S. Const. art. IV, 1, cl. 2. This has been interpreted as giving Congress
|
||||
the power to enact such legislation as it feels necessary to correct
|
||||
"confusion or procedural difficulties" proceeding from the operation of the
|
||||
Full Faith and Credit Clause. _Yarborough v. Yarborough_, 290 U.S. 202, 215
|
||||
(1933), cited in _Williams v. North Carolina_, 317 U.S. 287 (1942). This is
|
||||
not, however, the power to completely set aside full faith and credit; some
|
||||
pretext must exist that outweighs the constitutional directive.
|
||||
The apparent justification under this theory is the argument that
|
||||
compelling other states to grant full force to same sex marriages performed in
|
||||
Massachusetts would effectively prevent those states from enacting less
|
||||
permissive marriage laws. The state with the most open and unrestricted law
|
||||
would serve as a gateway to the rest of the country. From the perspective of
|
||||
states that would otherwise choose to regulate marriage more strictly, the
|
||||
result would be a "race to the bottom," in which the most accommodating law
|
||||
would essentially determine the law in every state. Under this theory,
|
||||
recognizing the Massachusetts marriage would vitiate Washington's freedom to
|
||||
enact its own law, and this would outweigh the otherwise controlling full
|
||||
faith and credit provision. Defendant Etheridge's position is that the
|
||||
federal and state statutes are constitutional because they preserve
|
||||
Washington's interest in preserving its own sovereignty against a solvent
|
||||
stream of foreign marriages.
|
||||
The inherent flaw in this argument is that there is no showing in the
|
||||
facts of this case that there is a legitimate risk of such a flood of same-sex
|
||||
marriages. It may be the case that Massachusetts requires a more stringent
|
||||
residency requirement than the nominal stay Nevada asked of divorce candidates
|
||||
that so troubled the dissent in _Williams v. North Carolina_. _Williams v.
|
||||
North Carolina_, 317 U.S. 287 (1942). If so, then it would be inappropriate
|
||||
to impose a hardship on lawfully married couples out of proportion to the
|
||||
minimal threat they pose to state sovereignty. In such case, marriages such
|
||||
as the Near-Etheridge union should be recognized until it can be shown that
|
||||
Massachusetts or another state is performing such marriages without a
|
||||
stringent residency requirement, and that its interests in its marriage law
|
||||
substantially conflict with our own interests in maintaining sovereignty over
|
||||
our own policies. In that case, it would be unreasonable to empower such a
|
||||
state to override the laws of this Washington, the majority finding in
|
||||
_Fauntleroy v. Lum_ notwithstanding. We note that even if Massachusetts
|
||||
requires couples to be residents for the purposes of marriage, this Court and
|
||||
this state retain jurisdiction to determine whether that residency is
|
||||
sufficient to the needs of the interstate system. See _Williams v. North
|
||||
Carolina_, 325 U.S. 226 (1944).
|
||||
Until an actual showing can be made that giving full faith and credit to
|
||||
another state's marriage policy poses a clear and present danger to
|
||||
Washington's own sovereignty, the federal and state statutes in question are
|
||||
not sufficiently grounded to allow this Court to undermine Massachusetts law,
|
||||
which has not been shown to be substantially in conflict with our own. If
|
||||
there were no further analysis, then we would remand this case to the trial
|
||||
court with instructions to determine the law of Massachusetts and structure
|
||||
Washington?s response accordingly. The facts of this case, however, present
|
||||
additional, dispositive issues that this Court must also address.
|
||||
|
||||
III. Judicial Recognition under Full Faith and Credit
|
||||
|
||||
Plaintiff Near next argues that the Full Faith and Credit Clause requires
|
||||
this Court to recognize the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's declaratory
|
||||
judgment affirming the validity of the couple's marriage. Generally, Article
|
||||
IV compels this Court to give full faith and credit to a valid foreign
|
||||
judgment. "If the foreign court had jurisdiction of the parties and of the
|
||||
subject matter, and the foreign judgment is therefore valid where it was
|
||||
rendered, a court of this state must give full faith and credit to the foreign
|
||||
judgment and regard the issues thereby adjudged to be precluded in a
|
||||
Washington proceeding." _In re Wagner_, 748 P.2d 639 (Wash. Ct. App. 1987).
|
||||
See also _Williams v. North Carolina_, 325 U.S. 226 (1944). The fact that the
|
||||
parties could never obtain such a judgment in this state is irrelevant;
|
||||
"enforcement of a valid sister state judgment may not be denied, even if the
|
||||
claim upon which the judgment was based could not have been entertained in a
|
||||
Washington court." _Lee v. Ferryman_, 945 P.2d 1159, 1163 (Wash. Ct. App.
|
||||
1997) citing _Roche v. McDonald_, 275 U.S. 449 (1928). The dispositive issue
|
||||
here, then, is the original validity of the judgment. Defendant Etheridge
|
||||
must persuade this Court that the Massachusetts ruling is invalid, as this
|
||||
Court is powerless to disregard a legitimate foreign judgment.
|
||||
This case is unlike _Williams v. North Carolina II_, which turned on
|
||||
North Carolina's decision that a Nevada judgment on the domicile of (putative)
|
||||
Nevada residents was faulty. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's
|
||||
declaratory judgment presumes to decide not just the law of Massachusetts, but
|
||||
also the law of all states, through its interpretation of Article IV. While
|
||||
such an interpretation is not inappropriate for a court asked to render its
|
||||
opinion on an interstate matter, the practical effect full recognition of that
|
||||
judgment would have on Washington would be untenable. Recognition of foreign
|
||||
judgments serves as collateral estoppel when parties seek to re-litigate an
|
||||
issue in this state. See _Lee v. Ferryman_, 945 P.2d at 1163-64. This is
|
||||
essentially the goal of plaintiff Near, who wishes this Court to honor
|
||||
Massachusetts' judgment on the validity of her marriage without re-litigation.
|
||||
The Massachusetts judgment is not limited to the validity of the
|
||||
marriage in Massachusetts; it apparently purports to declare the marriage
|
||||
presumptively valid in all states. While this is an understandable and
|
||||
natural extension of Massachusetts' domestic policy, full recognition would
|
||||
prevent Washington courts from addressing the validity of the Etheridge-Near
|
||||
marriage, despite the compellingly close and significant contacts this state
|
||||
has with the relationship and its dissolution. "In effect, the Full Faith and
|
||||
Credit Clause compels an end to litigation" when foreign judgments are given
|
||||
full recognition, and while the law seems clear on this point, it cannot be
|
||||
the case that Washington courts are precluded from peering into the validity
|
||||
of a marriage within their own state for the purposes of regulating its
|
||||
dissolution. See _Lee v. Ferryman_, 945 P.2d at 1163.
|
||||
The Massachusetts judgment essentially merely confirmed that
|
||||
Massachusetts law applied to Massachusetts residents; once the couple became
|
||||
Washington residents, they became subject to our law and our courts, and not
|
||||
even the Commonwealth's esteemed judgment can divert our jurisprudence.
|
||||
Massachusetts' interests are not great enough to preclude Washington from
|
||||
conducting its own analysis and, if necessary, reaching a different result.
|
||||
Our own interest in this case, and our contacts with the issue and the
|
||||
parties, are overwhelming. This Court rejects the plaintiff's arguments on
|
||||
this point; the Full Faith and Credit Clause does not require Washington
|
||||
courts to recognize the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's declaratory
|
||||
judgment.
|
||||
|
||||
IV. Meretricious Relationship
|
||||
|
||||
Plaintiff Near next asserts that Washington common law provides a remedy
|
||||
for these parties even if this Court held their marriage to be invalid in the
|
||||
state of Washington. We concur. Even if this Court were to rule that the
|
||||
parties' relationship was not a valid marriage, the equitable property
|
||||
distribution and alimony remedies sought by plaintiff Near may be available
|
||||
through the doctrine of meretricious relationships. Although not legal
|
||||
marriages, this Court has found that "income and property acquired during a
|
||||
meretricious relationship should be characterized in a similar manner as
|
||||
income and property acquired during marriage." _Connell v. Francisco_, 898
|
||||
P.2d 831, 836 (Wash. 1994). There have been no cases in Washington, or indeed
|
||||
in any state or federal court, deciding whether a meretricious relationship
|
||||
creates the right to alimony, but it seems doubtful that the property rights
|
||||
of an explicitly non-marriage relationship would extend to alimony support.
|
||||
Before the specific remedies available to cohabitants in a meretricious
|
||||
relationship can be addressed, however, this Court must attempt to determine
|
||||
whether these parties were, in fact, in such a relationship. This Court in
|
||||
_Connell v. Francisco_ established a list of relevant factors to such a
|
||||
determination: "continuous cohabitation, duration of the relationship, purpose
|
||||
of the relationship, pooling of resources and services for joint projects, and
|
||||
the intent of the parties." _Connell v. Francisco_, 898 P.2d at 835. Each of
|
||||
these factors weighs in favor of a finding of a meretricious relationship
|
||||
between the litigants. Their continuous cohabitation endured for
|
||||
approximately twenty years, and the fact that the parties held themselves out
|
||||
for fifteen years as a married couple (and sought the sanction of a high court
|
||||
to do so) speaks volumes as to the purpose of the relationship and the intent
|
||||
of the parties. Were this not a same-sex couple, this Court would
|
||||
characterize their relationship as meretricious without further analysis.
|
||||
The fact that this is a same-sex relationship cannot be disregarded. The
|
||||
Washington Second Court of Appeals held in _Vasquez v. Hawthorne_ that
|
||||
statutory limitations on who may marry "are relevant in determining whether a
|
||||
relationship is sufficiently 'marital-like' to be meretricious," and that
|
||||
same-sex couples that cannot marry under Washington law cannot be construed
|
||||
as having a meretricious relationship. _Vasquez v. Hawthorne_, 994 P.2d 240,
|
||||
243 (Wash. Ct. App. 2000). We vacated the appellate court's decision on other
|
||||
grounds without approaching the issue of whether a same sex couple may create
|
||||
a meretricious relationship.
|
||||
This Court's failure to approach the issue led to Justice Sanders'
|
||||
declaration in his concurrence that the majority opinion provided "somewhat
|
||||
less satisfaction than can be obtained from kissing one's sister." _Vasquez
|
||||
v. Hawthorne_, 33 P.3d 735, 739 (Wash. 2001). Justice Sanders will be pleased
|
||||
to know that this Court finds it now necessary to revisit the feasibility of
|
||||
same sex meretricious relationships. He will be less pleased to find that
|
||||
this Court cannot concur with the Court of Appeals' _Vasquez_ findings or his
|
||||
own defense of that ruling. The chief criticism leveled against the judicial
|
||||
recognition of homosexual meretricious relationships by both the appellate
|
||||
court and Justice Sanders' concurrence is that such a couple could not marry,
|
||||
invalidating the "marital-like" standard espoused in _Connell_. _Connell v.
|
||||
Francisco_, 898 P.2d at 834. This reasoning cannot apply here, for these
|
||||
parties did marry, albeit not under Washington law.
|
||||
While such the parties could not have obtained their marriage in this
|
||||
state, to deny its existence at the time and place of its formation would be
|
||||
presumptuous. At the time of the ceremony, Massachusetts unquestionably had
|
||||
the most significant relationship with the parties, and even now, they
|
||||
maintain an interest in the enforceability and lawful dissolution of the
|
||||
marriage. There is no theory this Court can posit that would justify ignoring
|
||||
the six years of marriage within Massachusetts or denying comity to the
|
||||
Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts' declaratory judgment. While there
|
||||
may be valid legal challenges to the validity of the parties' marriage within
|
||||
the state of Washington, there is no challenge to its validity in the
|
||||
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Incontestably, the parties here before us were
|
||||
married at one point. Since relationships without a formalized marriage can
|
||||
fulfill the "marital-like" standard, it would be the height of absurdity for
|
||||
this Court not to find that a legal marriage, even of foreign provenance, can
|
||||
do the same.
|
||||
Justice Sanders will no doubt be disheartened to learn that this Court
|
||||
will not take a further position on the ability of same sex couples without a
|
||||
foreign marriage to form a meretricious relationship. In the present case,
|
||||
however, this Court finds that the parties could, under Washington law, form a
|
||||
cognizable meretricious relationship. We do not find that the parties did, in
|
||||
fact, have such a relationship. Such a finding is highly fact dependent, and
|
||||
should be decided, if necessary, on remand. This Court remanded _Vasquez_ for
|
||||
trial on similar grounds, holding that "in a situation where the relationship
|
||||
between the parties is both complicated and contested, the determination of
|
||||
which equitable theories apply should seldom be decided by the court on
|
||||
summary judgment." _Vasquez v. Hawthorne_, 33 P.3d at 739. The procedural
|
||||
history of this case is bereft of a factual analysis of the parties'
|
||||
relationship; the trial court issued a summary judgment dismissing the
|
||||
plaintiff's complaint in a fashion that we have expressly held to be
|
||||
insufficient for finding or denying a meretricious relationship. While it
|
||||
seems virtually impossible for a factual analysis to determine that such a
|
||||
relationship did not exist here, given our ruling that it is possible in these
|
||||
circumstances, a remand on this issue is appropriate. We do not currently so
|
||||
remand this case, however, as there are dispositive issues yet to be examined.
|
||||
|
||||
V. Limited Recognition of Divorce Remedies
|
||||
|
||||
The plaintiff argues that Washington law does not preclude recognition of
|
||||
the marriage for the limited purpose of dissolving it and resolving property
|
||||
issues between the parties. We again concur. Wash. Rev. Code 26.04.020
|
||||
stipulates, "a marriage between two persons that is recognized as valid in
|
||||
another jurisdiction is valid in this state only [when the parties are persons
|
||||
other than a male and a female]." The statute clearly rejects the recognition
|
||||
of the validity of extant same sex marriages, but does not deny their very
|
||||
existence. When the aim of a litigant is to regulate the dissolution of this
|
||||
marriage, it would be unreasonable to construe this statute such that the
|
||||
state cannot recognize the fact that a marriage occurred and was treated as
|
||||
valid by the parties. Such a finding by this Court would severely impair
|
||||
Massachusetts? power to enforce its own laws, even within its own borders, and
|
||||
do little to advance Washington's interests.
|
||||
The Second Restatement of the Conflict of Laws plainly sets out the
|
||||
fundamental principles when state interests collide. While these principles
|
||||
are intended to be used in the context of making an informed and reasonable
|
||||
choice in the application of foreign laws, they are fully applicable here.
|
||||
Among the central factors that the 6 of the Restatement directs courts to
|
||||
assess are:
|
||||
|
||||
a) The needs of the interstate and international systems,
|
||||
b) The relevant policies of the forum,
|
||||
c) The relevant policies of other interested states and their
|
||||
relative interests,
|
||||
d) The protection of justified expectations,
|
||||
e) Certainty, predictability and uniformity of result, and
|
||||
f) Ease in the determination and application of the law to be
|
||||
applied.
|
||||
|
||||
Each of these factors weighs in favor of recognizing the marriage for the
|
||||
purposes of dissolving it. The relevant policies of this state and
|
||||
Massachusetts are simple to assess; Massachusetts clearly intends to enable
|
||||
same sex couples to wed, while Washington does not wish to validate such
|
||||
marriages. Washington has no specific rule as to divorce remedies in such
|
||||
cases, though. Even more significantly, as discussed above, the policy of
|
||||
meretricious relationships already grants divorce-like remedies to unmarried
|
||||
parties in Washington, and this avenue is almost certainly open to the
|
||||
plaintiff. We cannot therefore construe the interests of this state as
|
||||
weighing heavily against the granting of divorce remedies to these parties.
|
||||
Massachusetts' interests can be protected by recognizing the marriage for the
|
||||
purpose of regulating its dissolution without greatly impinging on
|
||||
Washington's policies. This application of the 6 factors shows that insofar
|
||||
as there is a conflict between Massachusetts and Washington law, it is a false
|
||||
conflict. Granting the requested remedies would do little to vitiate the
|
||||
Washington legislature's intent, while refusing to do so would create
|
||||
interstate havoc.
|
||||
The inevitable result of blinding ourselves to the existence of marriages
|
||||
performed in Massachusetts would be interstate chaos and confusion. Parties
|
||||
lawfully married in Massachusetts would be unable to dissolve their marriage
|
||||
elsewhere, resulting in uneven application of property laws on death or
|
||||
divorce, uncertain legitimacy of children, or even unintentional bigamy.
|
||||
Justice Douglas? majority opinion in the Williams case called such chaos "part
|
||||
of the price of our federal system," but we sympathize with Justice Jackson's
|
||||
dissent: the price is steep and unnecessary. _Williams v. North Carolina_,
|
||||
325 U.S. 226 (1944). The plaintiff here is asking for very little comity
|
||||
in order to forestall a great many problems. Granting comity to the
|
||||
Commonwealth sufficient to recognize the marriage in order to dissolve it
|
||||
would protect the justified expectations of the parties here, who relied on
|
||||
the judgment they obtained from the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts.
|
||||
This will also lead to more certain, predictable, and uniform results in the
|
||||
arena of divorce judgments. We cannot bring ourselves to deny such comity to
|
||||
our sister state when their interests do not conflict with our own in the
|
||||
equitable regulation of this relationship's dissolution.
|
||||
|
||||
VI. Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
If the parties had brought suit at any other time, seeking to determine
|
||||
the validity of their marriage under Washington law, the result might have
|
||||
been very different. As noted above, it is entirely possible that this Court
|
||||
would have validated the marriage under the Full Faith and Credit Clause, but
|
||||
only after a review of the law of Massachusetts as written and as applied.
|
||||
Similarly, if the plaintiff relied solely on the doctrine of meretricious
|
||||
relationships, this Court would have reached a different finding; the dispute
|
||||
would have been remanded to the trial level for an equitable finding as to the
|
||||
exact nature of their relationship.
|
||||
As it is, the parties have brought a dispute as to the applicability of
|
||||
divorce remedies to a marriage that was unquestionably valid in Massachusetts.
|
||||
Whether it was a lawful marriage as opposed to a meretricious relationship
|
||||
during the time that the couple resided in Washington is not at issue before
|
||||
this Court. By construing the controversy before us as a question of the
|
||||
proper application of divorce remedies to a foreign marriage, rather than as a
|
||||
dispute over the validity of same sex marriages, this Court can respect the
|
||||
laws and policies of Washington and interested foreign states as well as
|
||||
achieve substantive justice for the parties. Accordingly, we find that
|
||||
Washington law does not preclude recognition of the Massachusetts marriage for
|
||||
the limited purpose of dissolving the marriage and providing normal divorce
|
||||
remedies.
|
||||
|
||||
This Court vacates the ruling of the trial court and remands this case
|
||||
for a just and equitable division of property consistent with our findings.

Sunday, December 1 7:47 PM CDT 2002
|
||||
|
||||
Apparently Lubbock carries some kind of disease for those who move away. Every
|
||||
visit back leaves you with an annoying head cold post-visit. Aside from that,
|
||||
my thanksgiving was pretty good. Had t-day dinner at my cousins' house, and it
|
||||
was mighty fine. Went to go see the new James Bond movie with my family. Then
|
||||
met up with Sir-to-the-Flea for some pool and obscenely large mugs of beer at
|
||||
Billiards Plus. Found out that [Flea]'s band won the KTXT band off, much
|
||||
congrats to them, and that mistuh Lobo Licious has gotten engaged, more
|
||||
congrats to Steev [Licious] and [Elita-1]. Friday I helped daddio put up the
|
||||
christmas lights, then met up with Ocso [Bob tMotW] for lunch. We had lunch at
|
||||
his friend Lisa's resteraunt because it was her last day there after 3 and a
|
||||
half ears, er, years. After lunch [Bob] and I tried to track Steev down at
|
||||
Hastings, but he was not there, so we just wandered around and re-ordered the
|
||||
items on the shelves. Then [Flea] called and invited us to come by their band
|
||||
practice, so we went to [Frank Ferra]'s house to hear them play. They sounded
|
||||
really good, I was much impressed. After leaving there we went by [Bob]'s
|
||||
house and played some ping-pong, where [Bob] routed me easily. I love ping-
|
||||
pong, it is such a great game. After that I headed home to the parents house
|
||||
and hung out with the 'rents for a bit. From there I caught up with [Flea],
|
||||
[Frank Ferra] and the band for some post practice beer and food at Crickets.
|
||||
The guys in the band seem really cool, I hope they do well. I'm sure I'll link
|
||||
up to some of their stuff once they get some mp3s out. We stumbled over to
|
||||
Steev's after dinner to hang out a bit with the king chach and his woman in
|
||||
their new apartment. It was tastefully decorated in horror movie posters. They
|
||||
are such a pair. We watched Tombstone for the umpteenth time, so [Bob] and
|
||||
Steev could say 'Law Dog' over and over and I could make a train whistle noise
|
||||
at inappropriate times. Which we did. After that I went back to the rents' and
|
||||
crashed. Saturday I struck out after a home made breakfast from the madre and
|
||||
headed home.
|
||||
|
||||
On the way home, I realized I was coming down with a cold. Ugh. So I got home
|
||||
and went to work on getting something made for the Pot-Lock-Post-Thanksgiving
|
||||
party that Leia and her roommates were throwing. Just about the time Larry
|
||||
[Jakyl] and I were ready to go, the sinus headache portion of this lovely cold
|
||||
decided to clock me. Larry and I discussed it and decided that what I needed
|
||||
was some Merlot from the wine that Larry had gotten for the party. This, as it
|
||||
turns out, is not actually a cure for a head cold. The wine ended up zonking
|
||||
me out for the duration of the party. I spent most of the time alternately
|
||||
staring at the ceiling and staring at the walls. Which is a shame, because I
|
||||
had been looking forward to the party all week. Yegh. I did get to see Grand
|
||||
Master Ratte again and learn some news about the ever elusive BillGibe. The
|
||||
rest of our conversation seemed to have to do with buying money and making a
|
||||
fictional blog about celebrity name dropping with illustrations of burning
|
||||
pets. You're probably thinking that this is some kind of disease and wine
|
||||
muddled thought nonsense, but since it was the ratte, I'm not so sure.
|
||||
|
||||
So we made it home at some point and I nursed on some NyQuil.

Abstract
|
||||
|
||||
This process details how one can mount a Microchip PIC Programmer in a custom
|
||||
case. By performing this elaborate "mod", you too can have a super special DIY
|
||||
box for your el-cheapo PIC programmer. No more loose wires or bare circuit
|
||||
board sliding all over while you work on your high-tek project! Show your
|
||||
prowess by building one for yourself!
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Procedures
|
||||
|
||||
1. Purchase the very cheap KIT96 programmer kit from Dontronics.
|
||||
Assemble/solder it yourself or get a parent to help. Stare at the
|
||||
completed circuit and wonder whether or not you will need those stupid
|
||||
parts mentioned in the addendum. Wonder why the genius designers put the
|
||||
power supply and parallel port connectors on opposite sides of the
|
||||
board.
|
||||
2. Use the kit for a few years. Regret the purchase. Get pissed because you
|
||||
should have bought a better programmer -- one that has better support
|
||||
for hardware in recent versions of MS operating systems. Take extra time
|
||||
to enjoy the tedium that is connecting and disconnecting the power
|
||||
supply every time you wish to burn code. Marvel at how easily the bare
|
||||
board slides around your work surface!
|
||||
3. Decide to mount the damn programmer in a box.
|
||||
4. Go to Wacky Willy's in search of a suitable container. Get pissed
|
||||
because they have nothing suitable. Assume that you can find one at...
|
||||
5. Radio Shack. Not. Get more pissed because their boxes are horribly
|
||||
misshapen and insanely overpriced. Scoff at the ridiculous displays of
|
||||
plastic consumer electronics crap. Go home depressed.
|
||||
6. Tear apart house looking for suitable container. Find nothing. Decide to
|
||||
eat some Rice-a-Roni to restore your strength. Any flavor may suffice,
|
||||
but the author highly recommends "Rice Pilaf". Yum. It should look
|
||||
something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
<http://www.noisybox.net/electronics/ricepic/retailbox.gif>
|
||||
|
||||
Cook the rice as directed on the packaging. Eat. Wash down with 8 or 12
|
||||
beers.
|
||||
7. Realize later that you were supposed to keep the Rice-a-Roni box. Fish
|
||||
it out of the trash.
|
||||
8. Use the exacto knife to cut the box apart. Your goal here is to make the
|
||||
cardboard rice box about the same size as the PIC programmer. Cut one of
|
||||
the sides off so that the top is open. Apply generous amounts of clear
|
||||
packing tape as required for support and that "high-gloss" look.
|
||||
9. Decide that you need a power switch. Try to find an empty area on the
|
||||
board where you could mount a switch. Get frustrated because there's
|
||||
not very much room. Decide to drill in the corner near the DB25
|
||||
connector. Come dangerously close to severing an important trace. Mount
|
||||
the switch.
|
||||
10. Cut one of the traces coming off the power connector in half. Solder a
|
||||
wire to each side. Solder the other ends of the wires to your newly
|
||||
mounted switch. Voila! Power switch. Complicated.
|
||||
11. Use the exacto knife and cut out holes in the cardboard for the DB25 and
|
||||
power connectors. The holes should be in the correct positions and cut
|
||||
to the "right" size. Just eyeball it.
|
||||
12. Mount the PCB standoffs to the underside of the PIC programmer board
|
||||
PCB. What's that? THE BOARD ONLY HAS 3 HOLES DRILLED? Yup. Again, poor
|
||||
design. I suppose you get what you paid for. You need 4 holes for
|
||||
stability...so drill the 4th hole yourself in the far corner. Again,
|
||||
it's best to come dangerously close to ruining those important, poorly
|
||||
placed traces. Depending on the size of screws being used, you may need
|
||||
to tap out the holes to make them bigger (I did).
|
||||
13. Unscrew the metal shield from the outside of the DB25 connector and
|
||||
place the board inside the box. Use the exacto knife to poke around and
|
||||
find the PCB standoffs on from the underside of the cardboard container.
|
||||
Once you find them, poke the exacto knife through and twist it around to
|
||||
make a little hole. Use the remaining 4 screws to secure the PCB to the
|
||||
bottom of the rice box. If your screws are long enough, it's probably a
|
||||
very good idea here to use some washers (I know from hindsight). After
|
||||
mounting, screw the metal shield back onto the DB25 connector from the
|
||||
outside.
|
||||
14. If you were smart, you have some rubber feet that are taller than the
|
||||
screws you used in the previous step. If you're like me, however, you'll
|
||||
soon discover that the screws are taller than the feet...making the feet
|
||||
useless. If you find yourself in this situation, you can either a) get
|
||||
shorter screws, b) get taller feet, or c) cuss loudly and decide that
|
||||
you "don't need those goddamn fucking feet anyway!" (my personal
|
||||
choice). If desired, push the rubber feet onto the bottom.
|
||||
15. That's it! Plug it in. Try it out. Enjoy!

|

[Some dr00gs have started a company called Chach Inc. Basically, the goal of
|
||||
Chach Inc. is to hang around and be chaches. Yes indeedy. The following
|
||||
interview with Stein originally appeared in _Chach Quarterly_ magazine. -Ed.]
|
||||
|
||||
11-01-2002
|
||||
|
||||
Deuce: Thank you for joining us, Stein. We are always excited here at _Chach
|
||||
Quarterly_ to have a member of Chach Inc. take time to speak with us.
|
||||
|
||||
Stein: ....
|
||||
|
||||
Deuce: So if we can get right down to it...what is it you do at Chach Inc.
|
||||
and how do you feel your work affects those around you?
|
||||
|
||||
Stein: Do you watch CNN on TV or read CNN on the web?
|
||||
|
||||
Deuce: Well...I mean...sometimes yeah. But getting back --
|
||||
|
||||
Stein: CNN had an article about the possibility of genetically altering
|
||||
onions to "weed out" the enzyme which causes people to cry while cutting
|
||||
onions.
|
||||
|
||||
Deuce: .... I don't think I under--
|
||||
|
||||
Stein: See that's your fuckin' problem!! You don't understand. Let me
|
||||
explain it to you.
|
||||
|
||||
Deuce: ?
|
||||
|
||||
Stein: What if the reaction that people have from the onion keeps some sort
|
||||
of balance within nature itself. As if to say we cry because we are sad that
|
||||
this onion is giving its life, its sense of fullness, in order to please our
|
||||
hunger. Are we so supreme that we think we can take that one god given right
|
||||
away from the onion itself?
|
||||
|
||||
Why, then, don't we begin to take away other "rights" which the world has
|
||||
bestowed upon fruits and veggies?
|
||||
|
||||
Broccoli - have you ever noticed the funny feeling you get in the roof of your
|
||||
mouth as it lightly tickles it while you chew? I believe the broccoli does
|
||||
this as a way to show you appreciation. Broccoli is not a smart plant - it
|
||||
does not understand that what lies ahead is an extremely painful and
|
||||
excruciating death in the depths of your acid ridden stomach. The broccoli is
|
||||
simply happy to have been pulled from the ground. That place where it is
|
||||
trapped, held still all its life, unable to move. It has chosen you to thank,
|
||||
and does so by treating your mouth to a gentle massage. What if we took that
|
||||
away?? The world could end in anarchy. You may not consciously think of that
|
||||
feeling when it is happening, but your sub-conscience is WELL aware! Mad
|
||||
Broccoli? MOO!
|
||||
|
||||
Peanuts - one cannot express the love and devotion it takes to properly
|
||||
prepare a peanut to be eaten. The careful plucking from its mother plant, to
|
||||
transportation to the processing plant. In this plant it is processed, gently
|
||||
massaged with exotic oils, perfumed with salt, and packaged in a home filled
|
||||
with other peanuts. The peanut is a community vegetable. It enjoys sharing
|
||||
its life with others. This is why you see many peanuts in the aptly named
|
||||
"mixed nuts" packagings. They do not discriminate. The peanut keeps the
|
||||
peace. It presents a happy medium between many different cultures. Are we to
|
||||
take this trait away? Are we to go to war with our neighbor? Are we to once
|
||||
again separate the races simply because they LOOK different? What kind of a
|
||||
world would we be reverting to? The peanut speaks for world peace!
|
||||
|
||||
Celery - this one is a tough one to explain. Celery, while enjoyed worldwide,
|
||||
emits an odor similar to that of a wet dog when bitten into. Many pay it no
|
||||
attention because of the sweet reward associated with sinking your teeth into
|
||||
the wood-like substance, and having no mess left behind. This plant does have
|
||||
its redeeming values, though. It goes very well with peanut butter, although
|
||||
much of the work in the relationship is done by the peanut (surprise,
|
||||
surprise!). Most importantly though, celery provides a strong, sturdy medium
|
||||
for eating with your hands! You never use silver-ware to eat celery. You use
|
||||
it AS silverware, but it is edible! This, in many ways, reminds us of our
|
||||
childhood. Times before we were forced to conform to the ways of society.
|
||||
Forced to use a method which is much more uncomfortable and time consuming in
|
||||
most cases. Celery provides a service! As a gentle, but stable, helper.
|
||||
Should we take this away too? Take away our childhood! Steal that which we
|
||||
were born into?? What will people do? What will the world become? Celery
|
||||
promotes youth!
|
||||
|
||||
Lettuce - the foundation of that which is known as a modern day salad.
|
||||
Lettuce not only serves as this foundation, but it aids in other creations
|
||||
such as hamburgers, pastas, and other great foods that require a base
|
||||
substance to hold it all together. Lettuce shows us much about the way life
|
||||
should be in many cases. It provides a crutch for others to lean on, a table
|
||||
for others to stand on. Should we take this away? Should we change lettuce
|
||||
forever just because sometimes it doesn't taste good? Take its joy in life
|
||||
away because sometimes it is a little to hard to chew, or may get stuck in our
|
||||
teeth? What kind of a world is this that will hurt so many others just to
|
||||
provide comfort to the few? Lettuce stands for unity! Lettuce stands for
|
||||
stability!
|
||||
|
||||
Down with the Mad Scientists! They are beginning to sink their teeth into our
|
||||
world. Soon it will be chaos. Soon we may cease to exist! Vote yes for
|
||||
vegetable rights!
|
||||
|
||||
Deuce: Ok. That about does it on this edition of Chach talk. Thank you for
|
||||
your time and see you next time!

Tuesday, October 8 11:22 AM CDT 2002
|
||||
|
||||
Ok, I promised some kind of report about my trip to Lubbock, so I'll try and
|
||||
do so here, before I get completely sidetracked by the new update to the
|
||||
XMLJourn script, which should come out soon with a bugfix and some new, useful
|
||||
features. ..
|
||||
|
||||
I got into Lubbock around 3:00pm Monday, and nobody was around, so I went and
|
||||
played some discgolf at the Mackenzie State Park disc golf course . This was a
|
||||
weird experience, since I was out by myself in my hometown, having just
|
||||
arrived from the big city, and felt strangely less safe than in Dallas.
|
||||
Apparently, Lubbock's crime rate is actually higher than that of Dallas.
|
||||
Creepy. I got over it soon enough and enjoyed a round of disc golf after my
|
||||
five hour drive.
|
||||
|
||||
Tuesday I went out again with Trev [Sir Flea] and got some really good
|
||||
pictures of us playing and of the course. I also had lunch with [Bob tMotW],
|
||||
who has a message, apparently, for all you DFW people. I had dinner with my
|
||||
family and enjoyed a nice home cooked meal. I went and found Trevor at
|
||||
Crickets where the KTXT peeps were finishing up their staff meeting, and got
|
||||
roped into helping them hand out fliers after the creed concert. Blech, what
|
||||
college students will do for beer money! :)
|
||||
|
||||
Wednesday I had lunch with Steev [Licious] and John [Hallucination] at One
|
||||
Guy from Italy, where the guy there still remembers me from High school.
|
||||
Actually, I didn't eat then because I was still pretty full from a big
|
||||
breakfast my ma had made for me. After lunch at One Guy's, I met up with [Bob]
|
||||
at an anti-war rally on the Texas Tech campus, hung out a bit, listened to
|
||||
some speakers and watched the puppet-show. Then we went and got some lunch at
|
||||
Georgio's, where they again remembered me from Highschool. Then I spent the
|
||||
rest of the afternoon getting all of my stuff out of my parent's extra garage
|
||||
and over to the storage place to allow my father to hang up his dead animals
|
||||
in the garage without them bleeding all over my couch. I got to see my 19"
|
||||
rack again. That was nice. Wednesday night I met up with Trev at Bash
|
||||
Riprock's to see Watermelon Fast Bass perform their duties as host band for
|
||||
the Travling Zoo open mic night. Trev bought me beer, because I was broke, and
|
||||
he is a swell fellow.
|
||||
|
||||
Thursday I went shopping with my sister. That was a lot of fun because she is
|
||||
very good at it, while I was having trouble remembering prices from several
|
||||
stores back, she could recall the prices and the variations in colors and
|
||||
sizes from store to store, it was uncanny. We had lunch at Saigon Cafe. If you
|
||||
are in Lubbock, you probably owe it to yourself to stop in and at the least
|
||||
have an eggroll. I love that place. After lunch I met up with mi madre and got
|
||||
my toe fixed (finally), so in a few more days I shall be a normal person again
|
||||
and not have this ridiculous pain in my toe all the time. Thursday night I
|
||||
had dinner with [Hallucination] and Kelly at their house, and we watched "Big
|
||||
Lebowski" for the umpteenth time because it is such a great movie. Later I met
|
||||
up with Oscar, Joel, Trevor and his brother Scott at Billiards Plus and played
|
||||
some pool.
|
||||
|
||||
Friday I got up early to go get my 'wellness' screening done at Lubbock High.
|
||||
Got some bloodwork done and my flu shot. Then had breakfest with my parents at
|
||||
the Pancake House, and managed to get on the road at a decent hour.
|
||||
|
||||
It was a fun trip, I have so many great friend's and family in Lubbock, but I
|
||||
still couldn't wait to get back to Dallas. Something about Lubbock just brings
|
||||
me down, I don't know what it is.

[Yet again, fair use and whatnot as far as celebrity names and such are
|

concerned. Parody, satire, yes indeed.]

-+- "What You Wanted To See" -+-
|
||||
|
||||
Submitted for your approval...
|
||||
This story started because of a familiar burning sensation...not the penis
|
||||
this time, just anger.
|
||||
|
||||
You watched 'Phantom Menace' and were left with an empty feeling, like you had
|
||||
been ripped off. Later you watched the show 'Survivor' and somehow that same
|
||||
feeling crept into your soul once more.
|
||||
|
||||
So...to fix this, we have a new script, yo! Check it one time.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||

|
||||
1 newly divorced couple
|
||||
|
||||
Day 4 of Survivor
|
||||
The day begins as Howard Cosell brings the tribes together to explain the
|
||||
challenge of the day.
|
||||
|
||||
Cosell : Good morning everyone, how did you sleep?
|
||||
|
||||
John (the newly ex-husband) : Hell, I couldn't sleep with her for five years,
|
||||
why should I start now?
|
||||
|
||||
Susan : Well, that's pretty obvious with the 6 extra children isn't it?
|
||||
|
||||
The couple rages into a fury of insults and cat-calls.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L. Jackson : "Yo! Chill that bitch out!"
|
||||
|
||||
Susan : "Who are you callin a bitch?"
|
||||
|
||||
Lightsaber flashes its menacing red glow...
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Bitch, I'm talking to your ass...now ask me again and see
|
||||
if I don't kill every motherfucker standin up in here."
|
||||
|
||||
Bill Clinton : "Word, G."
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Don't speak to me motherfucker! I swear to god I'll smoke
|
||||
your ass!"
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus Christ : "You really shouldn't swear."
|
||||
|
||||
Everett : "That's right!! To quote from the book of James chapter 5..."
|
||||
|
||||
Lightsaber slashes through the air and removes Everett's head.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Still think I'm jokin motherfucker? Oh!!! You aint laughin
|
||||
now are you bitch? Any you other motherfuckers wanna speak to me?"
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly, General George S. Patton leaps through the air trying to grab the
|
||||
lightsaber away from the Jedi....
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson has more than enough time to dodge the would-be hero, and smacks him
|
||||
across the face.
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson looks down at the General and turns off his light saber.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "All you motherfuckers are crazy!"
|
||||
|
||||
He drops the weapon in front of the General.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Now, does that me less dangerous, or more dangerous?"
|
||||
|
||||
General Patton grabs the weapon and brings it up to defend himself...however
|
||||
he can't figure out how to turn it on. The Jedi master raises his hand, and
|
||||
General Patton feels the pressure around his neck increase tremendously...
|
||||
until finally the General falls to the ground.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson: "You motherfuckers don't understand the situation you are
|
||||
in...Well, let me break it down for your ass. This game is called 'survivor',
|
||||
and I'm gonna win it and take my ass to the bank. If that means killin all you
|
||||
bitches, then I'm gonna kill every last one of you motherfuckers...or you can
|
||||
shut up and stay the fuck out of my way."
|
||||
|
||||
Jenna Jameson : "But Jesus can be brought back from the dead."
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus Christ : "Bitch, when was the last time you were in church? Now shut the
|
||||
fuck up up, or I'll let the coon kill your ass!"
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Coon?? Oh that's right motherfucker...it's on now!"
|
||||
|
||||
The lightsaber zips into the waiting hand of the Jedi and comes to life
|
||||
instantly.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "We're about to have us one cut savior!"
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus picks up a branch from the ground and poses to defend himself.
|
||||
|
||||
Kurt Warner : "Fifty bucks on the Jedi."
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus Christ : "Oh you ungrateful fuck...see if you get to the superbowl
|
||||
again!!!"
|
||||
|
||||
Mohatma Ghandi : "Everyone please...we must find peace."
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Fuck you, skinny mother fucker!!"
|
||||
|
||||
Bill Clinton moves to the side and puts his arm around Jenna Jameson.
|
||||
|
||||
Bill Clinton : "Hehe that's one pissed off Jedi...you ever see a white guy
|
||||
whip a black guy?"
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus Christ : "Ok, fuck the lot of you!!!"
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus raises his staff and Bill Clinton falls dead.
|
||||
|
||||
Kurt Warner : "Yeah!! Way to go Big J !!"
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus Christ : "Oh no...you're fucked Warner!!! Little bitch can't throw a
|
||||
Goddamn pass to save his...."
|
||||
|
||||
At this moment the lightsaber comes sweeping through the middle of Christ's
|
||||
body, cutting him in half.
|
||||
|
||||
Kurt Warner : "YEAH!! You go boy!!!"
|
||||
|
||||
Suddenly the lightsaber whips through the air as it is hurled to meet Kurt's
|
||||
chest burning a hole in the middle of his embroidered number 13.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Who's next?? Come on bitches!! Come fuck with me!"
|
||||
|
||||
Penn : "Yo...word to your mom, brother."
|
||||
|
||||
As Penn is talking to the pissed off black man, Teller walks slowly over to
|
||||
Kurt Warner's corpse and looks as if he is in mourning over the body. Slowly
|
||||
he palms the lightsaber and hides it in his coat pocket. Penn pulls his nickel
|
||||
plated .45 used in his act.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Yo bitch, we all know that shit is fake..."
|
||||
|
||||
Penn slowly squeezes the trigger and the gun responds with a huge explosion of
|
||||
force.
|
||||
|
||||
The Jedi is thrown backwards to the ground...his arm bleeding.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Son of a Bitch!!! That shit hurts motherfucker!!! Oh I'm
|
||||
gonna get yo ass now...you know the rule...you shot me!"
|
||||
|
||||
Jackson stands and waves his hand summoning his lightsaber. Teller comes
|
||||
flying towards the Jedi, being pulled by his jacket pocket.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Oh you thievin mother fucker!!!"
|
||||
|
||||
The Jedi turns the lightsaber on from inside the jacket pocket, and slowly the
|
||||
lifeless body of Teller falls to the ground.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Don't eva steal my shit!!!"
|
||||
|
||||
Penn : "NOOOO!!!!"
|
||||
|
||||
The grief stricken Penn fires his weapon repeatedly at the Jedi, round after
|
||||
round....The Jedi easily deflecting the bullets with his saber.
|
||||
|
||||
The familiar 'click' finally sounded, and Penn knew he had an empty gun in his
|
||||
hands.
|
||||
|
||||
Penn : "Oh well that's just great!"
|
||||
|
||||
He hurls his gun at the Jedi.
|
||||
|
||||
The gun pauses in mid air and turns on its owner.
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "You just the fool, you done killed these other
|
||||
motherfuckers for me."
|
||||
|
||||
Penn looks slowly around and sees lifeless bodies lying all around him.
|
||||
|
||||
Penn : "Oh well that's just perfect! Fuck it...fuck it all!!! Now I can't do
|
||||
my show in Vegas next week."
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Vegas? Shit negro, that's all you had to say...Lets go
|
||||
roll up on some fine honies and get the Jedi groove on..."
|
||||
|
||||
Penn : "Aw shit yeah..."
|
||||
|
||||
Howard Cosell : "What the fuck just happened here?"
|
||||
|
||||
Penn : "Black man won."
|
||||
|
||||
Samuel L Jackson : "Word."

Sweet
|
||||
|
||||
My black-sugar baby in a pretty plastic dress
|
||||
Hums a bubbly bit for me, a thrill when
|
||||
I can't find none, in class, at work
|
||||
Just anytime, my baby is there,
|
||||
Sweet as ever, to keep me on top.
|
||||
|
||||
But when the top stays off, baby gets
|
||||
Cloying sweet, sticky, nasty, mean, all the
|
||||
Fun's let out. Baby ain't bubbly, pour her out.
|
||||
|
||||
Always another baby; ain't but
|
||||
Two bits apiece.
|
||||
|
||||
(2/11/03)
|
||||
|
||||
We grew up in Texas but
|
||||
when it was time to marry
|
||||
Kailas came north, to
|
||||
where she was from
|
||||
New Hampshire
|
||||
where it's pretty.
|
||||
|
||||
(In Trivandrum,
|
||||
the city blushes with
|
||||
saris and songs,
|
||||
and smiles to see the
|
||||
easy English name retire
|
||||
behind the coconut trees
|
||||
of Thiruvananthapuram)
|
||||
|
||||
Two families, two weddings,
|
||||
Like a brother I'm invited, to India
|
||||
but I can't go, there's no way
|
||||
to pay, there's no Atlantic train,
|
||||
smoky, stuffy, and stuffed-
|
||||
full of smoking men,
|
||||
sprouting from windows, like
|
||||
bald Ben Kingsley
|
||||
as Gandhi, coming home.
|
||||
|
||||
(Kerala blooms, and families,
|
||||
like flowers, drift down rivers
|
||||
that are clean like holy things are
|
||||
to meet the foreign girl, and send
|
||||
her down the river, to drift,
|
||||
like flowers until she's clean
|
||||
like holy things and families are.)
|
||||
|
||||
New Hampshire,
|
||||
A nice day, a nice service
|
||||
I officiate, as compromise,
|
||||
not collared priest or
|
||||
inscrutable ascetic; acceptable
|
||||
to the families, I walk them through
|
||||
a nice service, with
|
||||
flowers and a song.
|
||||
|
||||
(Ganesha leers at Vishnu's spear
|
||||
on brassy gongs that ring
|
||||
in wedding songs, as her hands
|
||||
are henna-bound, in nut-brown
|
||||
whorls that stoop and twist
|
||||
around her wedding band and
|
||||
the flowers given to the fire)
|
||||
|
||||
In New Hampshire, Christ
|
||||
is satisfied, his service done;
|
||||
Ganesha waits his turn
|
||||
while I sit on the steps
|
||||
and think of him
|
||||
and Thiruvananthapuram.
|
||||
|
||||
(2/17/03)
|
||||
|
||||
Sidling, I slipped in late,
|
||||
twisted through the angry knees
|
||||
that stiffened as I snuck a peek
|
||||
from a far-back seat, too far to see
|
||||
if you were smiling, and too far for you
|
||||
to see me if you looked;
|
||||
|
||||
I smiled, but didn't stop, I just
|
||||
kept creeping, closer to the stage,
|
||||
past any empty seats,
|
||||
as long as I kept moving, clambering
|
||||
seeping through the angry knees, I wouldn't
|
||||
sit and see you not seeing me.
|
||||
|
||||
I picked around the ragged line
|
||||
of laps and furled programs, rolled
|
||||
like sweaty cigarettes to smolder
|
||||
in impatient thighs that snapped as
|
||||
I folded mine, pristine, to prove
|
||||
that I was there.
|
||||
|
||||
I slunk around the jutting, pointing feet
|
||||
of honest folk, who pointed toes at me but
|
||||
sucked it in and twisted while I scrabbled,
|
||||
penitent but unpausing until I was close
|
||||
and you could have seen me
|
||||
if you looked.
|
||||
|
||||
I hunkered, stretched, and touched the stage,
|
||||
to moor against the crests of knees and shoals
|
||||
of hooking ankles, and watched, to see
|
||||
if you were smiling; when I knew
|
||||
I cast off, reversed my course,
|
||||
and climbed back out again.
|
||||
|
||||

|

|
||||
Green dream
|
||||
|
||||
A tree buries its head, and roots
|
||||
its proboscis and ten thousand tongues
|
||||
into the earth, where it eats, constantly,
|
||||
and mulls the green dream of swarming,
|
||||
beetle-bright leaves that frothed on brittle
|
||||
stick legs and crawled against the wind.
|
||||
|
||||
Manic, it will not bear red thoughts of fruit
|
||||
when the million facets of its one bright eye
|
||||
have stared into the sun and burned brown
|
||||
and dropped, like flies, to creep into the dirt
|
||||
that it chews.
|
||||
|
||||
(03/03/03)
|
||||
|
||||
Ghazaline
|
||||
|
||||
I will spare one eye for you to keep in the light
|
||||
a gecko that waits and sleeps in the light.
|
||||
|
||||
To brew a sweet tea, we'll eat herbs
|
||||
and pool our sweat to steep in the light.
|
||||
|
||||
Purple is a night shade, that ferments
|
||||
in bars and looks cheap in the light.
|
||||
|
||||
A spasm sends your skirts out, to skirl
|
||||
and stretch out to sweep in the light.
|
||||
|
||||
A lozenge pins my teeth to either side,
|
||||
and spat, dives deep, deep in the light.
|
||||
|
||||
The grit in my vein is a platelet, plaintive
|
||||
it wails for a wound, to weep in the light.
|
||||
|
||||
Put your lips to my ear and Call into the night,
|
||||
"You sot! Open up! Let seep in the light!"
|

(03/11/03)
|

1.
|
||||
My books fold space around themselves
|
||||
like black-letter black holes; they are
|
||||
too heavy to bear thinking about.
|
||||
|
||||
The train can only bear so much mass,
|
||||
before it would curl in on itself,
|
||||
and throw me back to work.
|
||||
|
||||
My brother's couch is padded
|
||||
with stinking cat hair, but warm
|
||||
and so much like home.
|
||||
|
||||
2.
|
||||
My books smother space and time
|
||||
and immure me in law, like
|
||||
black-letter black holes.
|
||||
|
||||
My ticket prods the train to climb
|
||||
and shudder on its tracks, straining
|
||||
to lull me while it pulls me from the well.
|
||||
|
||||
My brother's cats obliterate me
|
||||
but even their stinking hair
|
||||
doesn't make it less like home.

Fourteenth Edition
|
||||
|
||||
Every thing in this room orbits
|
||||
the black-letter black hole
|
||||
that buffets me from where it sits
|
||||
|
||||
and warps my desk into a bowl.
|
||||
I teeter on the lip, and feel the prod
|
||||
of guilty conscience make me roll
|
||||
|
||||
faster than I'm inclined to plod
|
||||
to work when there's a TV set to lull
|
||||
me with a cheery bright facade.
|
||||
|
||||
I'll ward myself against the pull
|
||||
of all the cases I should be reading
|
||||
by thinking just how dull
|
||||
|
||||
the law can really be, but heeding
|
||||
inexorable dutiful gravity;
|
||||
there's no chance of my succeeding
|
||||
|
||||
against the terrible depravity
|
||||
of this textbook's awesome cavity.
|
||||
|
||||
(3/18/03)
|
||||
|

Law is a gullet
|
||||
that does not swallow
|
||||
ever.

[Fair use. Fair use indeed.]
|
||||
|
||||
In 1977, movie audiences were charmed by the lovable Jek Porkins, the
|
||||
fattest, and consequently shortest lived X-Wing pilot in the Deathstar Battle
|
||||
in _Star Wars: A New Hope_. For 25 years now, one question has dominated any
|
||||
Star Wars discussion: Where is Jek Porkins now? I was able to track down
|
||||
William Hootkins, the man behind the fat, at his LA home. He was gracious
|
||||
enough to grant me an interview, his first in 25 years. What follows is
|
||||
probably the most rewarding interview of my career, so sit back with some EZ
|
||||
Cheese and prepare to relive the magic. (Eating noises and girlish giggles
|
||||
from when I poked his fat have been edited out of this transcript.)
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: Mr. Hootkins, thank you for taking time out of your busy day to talk
|
||||
to me.
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: No problem. Can I offer you something to eat?
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: No thanks; I ate before the interview
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Me too. I think I am going to order a pizza.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: Mr. Hootkins, can you tell me how you landed the role as Porkins?
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Well that's a funny story. I wasn't actually at the 20th Century Fox
|
||||
studios to audition, I just heard that they had hors d'oeuvres.
|
||||
While I was stuffing my face, a woman came up to me and said, "you
|
||||
must be here to audition for the fat X-Wing pilot." Then she grabbed
|
||||
me by the arm as I tried to stuff more tasty treats into my pocket
|
||||
and led me into a room with George Lucas and a few others. I sat down
|
||||
in a chair and talked to Lucas about various snack foods for a while.
|
||||
He was very thin at the time, but now you can see what a 25-year
|
||||
friendship with me can do. Anyway, he sounded fairly interested in
|
||||
putting me in the movie, but it wasn't until I was leaving that he
|
||||
was completely convinced.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: What happened?
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Well, I tried to get out of my chair but I was stuck between the
|
||||
armrests so I uttered something like "I've got a problem here."
|
||||
Lucas smiled and the rest is history.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: Wow! That's a great story. As a morbidly obese man, did you object
|
||||
to your character being named Porkins?
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: No, I thought it was great. In fact after the movie, I sent off for a
|
||||
form to legally change my name to Porkins, but when the form arrived
|
||||
I was so hungry that I ate it. Anyway, I think it was great being a
|
||||
role model to fat children everywhere. Star Wars has a great
|
||||
message: you don't have to be thin or in shape to be in the
|
||||
military.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: A role model? But you were the first to die in the attack, and now
|
||||
that I think about it, I'm not even really sure how you died. I
|
||||
mean, it didn't show you getting shot or anything.
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Nevertheless, it was a great triumph for fat people, and it really
|
||||
opened up my movie career.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: Oh really? What movies have you been in since then?
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Well none so far, but George is going to start filming Episode 3 in a
|
||||
few months and I am sure Porkins will be in it.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: Uhh. Yeah, I'm sure he will. But even if he is, he would be a boy in
|
||||
the prequel. You know they take place years before the original
|
||||
trilogy, right?
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Hey, I found half a sandwich between the cushions of the couch. It's
|
||||
a little moldy, but still looks tasty.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: Ok...well, I think I am going to go now, thanks for your time and
|
||||
good luck to you. In your honor I will rename my gut from Nigel to
|
||||
Porkins.
|
||||
|
||||
Porkins: Hey I think the pizza man is at the door, can you let him in as you
|
||||
leave? I think I am stuck between the armrests of the couch.
|
||||
|
||||
Ciacco: sure..
|
||||
|
||||
[Yes, we know that Mr. Hootkins has indeed been in other films. Likewise, no
|
||||
offense was meant to fat people. Ciacco is a big fan and is currently
|
||||
endeavoring to become one of them. And yes, this is likely one of the most
|
||||
offensive files GwD has ever released.]

So I'm at this pool hall, right? Right, no doubt about that, and I'm
|
||||
playing pool. And this old friend of mine comes up and says what's up.
|
||||
And I'm like you fuckin baby, let's play some game a pool right now. And
|
||||
he's like yeah.
|
||||
|
||||
So we're playing for money and you know I'm cleaning up. I'm slamming
|
||||
balls in pockets like a teenage jagoff. And I'm like man do you want to
|
||||
play again? Remember when I armwrassled that big fucking ape and got him
|
||||
pinned? I couldn't use my arm the whole rest of the day.
|
||||
|
||||
Another couple games and I'm 15 bucks up, nice. Don't worry man, I'm
|
||||
buying drinks. So I'm off to the pisser and while I'm standing there
|
||||
buddy comes up and pulls this huge boner out of his pants. His bag is
|
||||
practically dangling into the pisser. And I'm like fuuuuck, dude! And
|
||||
then buddy tells me he fucked my girlfriend. With that conk, totally
|
||||
sick!

Duck, Duck, Goose.
|
||||
|
||||
You all remember that game, don't you? Everyone sits in a circle, then
|
||||
someone gets called "Goose."
|
||||
|
||||
After that, well, all hell breaks loose...
|
||||
|
||||
First, the "Goose" and the other kid run around, trying to tag each other.
|
||||
But that's just the beginning.
|
||||
|
||||
What comes next? Well, first there's the earthquakes. Then the Volcanoes.
|
||||
The seas boil. The Moon crashes into the Earth. People run around, skin on
|
||||
fire. Mass hysteria.
|
||||
|
||||
All because of a game. A damn kids' game.
|
||||
|
||||
Maybe I'm thinking of something else.
|
||||
|
||||
Wasn't "Goose" the name of Anthony Edwards's character in _Top Gun_?
|
||||
|
||||
Aww, fuck it.

|
||||
|
||||
So I was just sitting here, and I realized that I haven't written anything
|
||||
for this e-rag lately. And it came to me: I have absolutely nothing to say.
|
||||
Seriously, nothing at all. Why am I writing this, then? To prove that
|
||||
Licious and the other GwD-types will literally publish anything. Anything at
|
||||
all. Even this little rant about how I have nothing to say. Sure, lots of
|
||||
things have happened this year. The U.S. fought (and continues to fight) a
|
||||
war in Iraq, the reasons for which are debatable at best. The Democratic
|
||||
candidates for President have fought each other, insulting each other at every
|
||||
turn. Michael Jackson is in trouble for supposedly molesting a kid. Again.
|
||||
But I have nothing to talk about. I know that you don't care about my
|
||||
opinions on any of this stuff; I doubt if you care about my opinions on
|
||||
anything at all. Oh well, I'm still writing this, and it feels good. A
|
||||
little TOO good, if you know what I mean. Wait, I don't even know what I
|
||||
mean. I should probably shut up now, but I don't think I will yet. I've
|
||||
written some opinionated stuff, haven't I? Also, some stuff that required
|
||||
research. Today, though, I'm writing about nothing, and you're reading it
|
||||
(assuming you've read this far). Why are you reading it? Because you have
|
||||
nothing better to do? Or because you're as bored as I am, writing it? I have
|
||||
no idea what else to say, yet I keep typing. Typing, typing, typing. One
|
||||
day, I may say something important. Wouldn't want to miss that, would you?
|
||||
Yes, I have to PhDs, and I'm working on an MD. Am I smart? Smarter than you,
|
||||
certainly, but not really smart. I'm just kidding, maybe I'm not smarter than
|
||||
you. You, I think, would at least think of something to write about. Me, I'm
|
||||
just sitting here, doing nothing, typing about nothing. Wondering if anyone
|
||||
ever reads any of the shit I write, either here or in the scholarly journals
|
||||
in which I publish. I don't know what's going on in the world, not really. I
|
||||
know a few things I see in the campus newspaper, and I watch a little bit of
|
||||
the nightly news now and again, but I'm mostly clueless. Yet I have this
|
||||
forum to write about whatever I want. I also post on the GwD-blog-thing. Two
|
||||
forums for me to exercise my writing, and I don't know what to say. What
|
||||
should I write about?
|
||||
|
||||
The next thing I write won't suck this much. Or it will suck more. I promise
|
||||
you that. One or the other, but not both. Because that would make no sense.
|
||||
Like this weird-ass rant.

Drunk in Mexico, Part 1
|
||||
by Zippy
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
My folks have a place at Amistad Acres outside of Del Rio, Texas, near
|
||||
Lake Amistad Reservoir, which in turn lies half in Texas, and half in Mexico.
|
||||
For years now, this has been a place of refuge and fun for members of my
|
||||
family, friends, and myself. Fishing, eating, watching Satellite TV, reading,
|
||||
and drinking copious amounts of alcohol usually dominate the time spent down
|
||||
there for those lucky enough to have made the trip.
|
||||
There is, however, another activity that we males occasionally engage in
|
||||
that is not nearly as safe as the aforementioned activities. This 'other'
|
||||
activity involves a short journey across the Border, and into the infamous
|
||||
Mexican town of Acunia. Excitement awaits those willing to take this journey,
|
||||
as well as a myriad of temptations that, while seeming like tremendous fun at
|
||||
the time, will usually leave the unsuspecting with a pounding head, and
|
||||
reddened eyes the next morning. Hell, even if you DO know what to expect,
|
||||
chances are you will spend the next morning wishing you were never born, or at
|
||||
least had enough courage to know when to stop with the consumption of all the
|
||||
liquors you put in your body the previous evening. Great fun, indeed.
|
||||
Oh, the pleasures for the senses are great! You may decide to take a meal
|
||||
at one of the fancy restaurants, or you may just decide to go bar-hopping. And,
|
||||
for just one dollar, you can have your choice of many of the fine Mexican Beers
|
||||
available down there- Corona, Tecate, XX, Bohemia, and Superior. Of course, the
|
||||
tequila flows as freely as the Mississippi as well, and Mexican Bar-tenders
|
||||
tend not to skimp on the dosage of this deadly libation. Why, just one
|
||||
Margarita would be enough to make an ordinary person walk crooked.
|
||||
But the Devil in the Bottle for me is a mind-numbing concoction called
|
||||
El Presidente Brandy. It's cheap, it's sweet, and makes the tongue long for
|
||||
more. It also is The Great Evil Giver of Hang-Overs and the Maker of You Doing
|
||||
Stupid Things. It makes toothless hags appear as Helen of Troy; it makes you
|
||||
Rich and Powerful; it even makes you speak Spanish FLUENTLY. Never mind the
|
||||
fact that you won't remember ANY of that the next day!
|
||||
Of course, none of this matters while you are involved in all this
|
||||
revelry. From the first-person perspective, it's all just huge amounts of fun.
|
||||
It never even occurs to you that you are writing the epitaph for multitudes of
|
||||
brain-calls that will magically disappear as your liver attempts to deal with
|
||||
the oncoming flood of Cheap Booze.
|
||||
And, the Mexican Locals are so HELPFUL. They usher you into the various
|
||||
bars and Hole-in-the-Walls with shouts of "Bienvenidos!" which literally means,
|
||||
"Welcome!" in Espanol. The Bar-tenders and waiters are ALWAYS more than willing
|
||||
to come to your aid should you find yourself nearing the bottom of a drink.
|
||||
Locals are always more than happy to come up to you and indulge you in their
|
||||
broken English greetings, with offers of free drinks and cigarettes. The fun
|
||||
continues on and on and on and on and on, because the bars don't shut down
|
||||
until around four in the morning, or everyone has passed out or gone home.
|
||||
Once you have had enough of all this revelry and fun, it's time to stagger
|
||||
out to a waiting cab, and ride back across the bridge so that you can drive
|
||||
yourself home, with barely the faintest thought of the Hell you will feel in
|
||||
the morning. And, feel like hell, you most certainly will, but if you are lucky
|
||||
enough to not get the bed-spins, you will glide off to sleep with the same lips
|
||||
that you used to suck down all the poison curled into a pleasant, albeit
|
||||
DRUNKEN, smile.

Once upon a time, there was this guy (or gal, though masculine pronouns will
|
||||
be used throughout this text) who sat on his ass all day, playing on his
|
||||
computer. He didn't think of it as playing, but that's what it was. He read,
|
||||
mostly. He read news and he read "blogs."
|
||||
|
||||
He also read things called "textfiles" that he found on the web. Y'see,
|
||||
there're a lot of groups that publish these things; some call them "e-zines."
|
||||
Most of them have silly titles that may or may not be abbreviated by sillier
|
||||
acronyms (e.g. "The Neo-Comintern," "doomed to obscurity (aka dto),"
|
||||
"Angstmonster," and "GREENY world Domination (aka GwD)").
|
||||
|
||||
He read these textfiles. He followed the musings of
|
||||
teens/20-/30-/40-/etc.-somethings about various topics. Lots of rants, lots
|
||||
of whining, lots of crap. He learned to be an 31337 hax0r; he learned to
|
||||
make bombs and to be anti-social. He read song lyrics; he read crappy poetry.
|
||||
|
||||
He read stories by idiots with stupid names like "Aardv@rk." He didn't do
|
||||
much of anything else.
|
||||
|
||||
Man, that guy was a tool.
|
||||
|
||||
Seriously.

|
||||
|
||||
"Snapshot of a Daughter-in-Law" is Adrienne Rich's poem of the burden of
|
||||
domesticity and the feelings of helplessness she suffered through during her
|
||||
marriage. Rich examines her marriage through her poetry to give herself the
|
||||
voice she lacked as a mother of three and homemaker in the 1950's. Rich
|
||||
herself recounts the experience in _Arts of the Possible_ by saying "I had a
|
||||
sense that women didn't talk to each other much in the fifties-not about their
|
||||
secret emptiness, their frustrations" (Rich 19-20). Her writing throughout
|
||||
1958-60 in "Snapshots" was "...a longer looser mode than I'd ever trusted
|
||||
myself with before" (Rich 23). Outside of the realm of traditional formality
|
||||
in her verse, such as that used in "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers" she was able to
|
||||
express frustration in a more compelling, more truthful way. The poem moves
|
||||
through several parts, 10 "stanzas" in all and explores a variety of themes.
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 1 is about loss of beauty and tradition. Rich's voice in this seems to
|
||||
be addressing herself and her mother simultaneously. She speaks of "You,
|
||||
once a belle in Shreveport with henna-colored hair, skin like a peachbud,
|
||||
still have your dresses copied from that time" (Rich 1-3). Her mother, a
|
||||
southern belle, is unable to leave behind the traditions of old. Her dresses
|
||||
remain fixed, flowing antebellum styles that emphasized femininity through use
|
||||
of binding corsetry, awkward shoes and acres of lace. Her mother's skin was
|
||||
like that of a peach flower and surely like that of a peach, easily bruised,
|
||||
needing to be carried softly in padded containers, wary of bruising from the
|
||||
sharp edges of the world.
|
||||
|
||||
In the second and third parts of stanza 1, Rich's voice seems to speak
|
||||
more of her present situation. She moves from the past of her mother's life
|
||||
and into hers, still keeping her mother involved. Her mother's mind "molders
|
||||
like wedding-cake, heavy with useless experience, rich with suspicion, rumor,
|
||||
fantasy" (Rich 7-9), bringing to mind parlors of southern women gossiping
|
||||
about who did what at the latest cotillion or box social. Those days are
|
||||
gone, yet surely her mother remembers all the whispered half-truths, giggled
|
||||
innuendos that marked southern social life. More than her mother however,
|
||||
Rich is "crumbling to pieces under the knife-edge of mere fact. In the prime
|
||||
of your life" (Rich 10-11). Both Rich and her mother should be in the prime
|
||||
of their life, her mother causally remembering the gold of her past, while
|
||||
Rich should be enjoying her role as a mother and homemaker. Both of them
|
||||
instead are cut by that "knife edge" that is the reality of "mere fact".
|
||||
Instead of being able to enjoy what she has accomplished according to societal
|
||||
norms, the poet has become nervous and angry in her repetition of daily
|
||||
chores, doing the dishes and going her own way in the last two lines of
|
||||
stanza 1.
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 2 takes on a decidedly darker note. It is filled with imagery of
|
||||
depression, self-mutilation, schizophrenia and disassociation. The poetry
|
||||
begins with the daughter-in-law "Banging the coffee-pot in the sink" (Rich 14)
|
||||
like a child slamming doors to express rage at its parents that cannot be
|
||||
articulated. Immediately "she hears the angels chiding" (Rich 15) her to do
|
||||
things that are decidedly un-angelic. Rich's angels command her to be
|
||||
selfish, to give in to lust and gluttony and to forgo her care for others as
|
||||
she is the only one worth saving. They tell her to cast off the shackles of
|
||||
marriage and run to be truly free.
|
||||
|
||||
Hearing angels could be seen as an entry into a dissociative state, which is
|
||||
characteristic of deteriorating mental health. These dissociative states are
|
||||
"an altered state of consciousness akin to physical and emotional anesthesia"
|
||||
(Strong 2) and are often characteristic when the sufferer feels powerless or
|
||||
out of control of their life. Rich writes "Sometimes she's let the tapstream
|
||||
scald her arm, / a match burn to her thumbnail, / or held her hand above the
|
||||
kettle's snout / right in the wooly steam." (Rich 20-3). The infliction of
|
||||
physical pain is common as a method to control mental anguish. Researcher
|
||||
Armando Favassa argues "Cutting...gives people a way to manage inner
|
||||
states, converting chaos to calm, powerlessness to control" (Strong 43).
|
||||
Self-mutilation, like poetry, is a secret language; difficult to understand or
|
||||
comprehend from the outside without training in finding meaning. Stanza 2
|
||||
ends with Rich noting that the only part of her that retains the capability of
|
||||
feeling pain is her eyes. The eyes are the windows to the soul, the witnesses
|
||||
to her station in life, the way she is able to observe her loss of feeling and
|
||||
self and yet the pain they feel is that of irritation caused by grit, not the
|
||||
deeper pain she knows in inside of her.
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 3 changes gears into a meditation about nightmares, reproductive
|
||||
freedom, female empowerment and internecine conflict between women. Rich
|
||||
states, "A thinking woman sleeps with monsters" (Rich 36). The thinking she
|
||||
does during the day when performing domestic duties has begun to bleed over
|
||||
into her dreams. Her subconscious is now at the fore and the monsters she
|
||||
sublimates during the day are able to move freely throughout her sleeping
|
||||
hours. "The beak that grips her, she becomes" (Rich 37) brings to mind the
|
||||
mouths of baby birds feeding from the beak of their mother. Those beaks, her
|
||||
children, become the ties that bind and hold her in the nest unable to fly
|
||||
free as a bird can.
|
||||
|
||||
Reproductive rights and the ability of a woman to control her destiny as she
|
||||
would her womb surface in line 31. The reader sees "the female pills, the
|
||||
terrible breasts" (Rich 31) and knows that it talks about motherhood. This
|
||||
line has some interesting parallels with Eliot's _The Wasteland_, wherein two
|
||||
women speak: "It's them pills I took, to bring it off, she said. / (She's had
|
||||
five already, and nearly died of young George.) / The chemist said it would be
|
||||
all right, but I've never been the / same" (Eliot 159-62). Is Rich speaking
|
||||
of abortion and breast milk that would never be drunk by a child? More likely
|
||||
she is speaking of Norethindrone, the first female contraceptive invented two
|
||||
years before "Snapshots" was started, and which gave women an unprecedented
|
||||
amount of sexual freedom. When Austrian-American Carl Jerassi created
|
||||
"The Pill," he gave women control over the thing that had been the
|
||||
responsibility of men: pregnancy.
|
||||
|
||||
Rich takes female empowerment themes farther with her invocation of Boadicea
|
||||
in line 32. Boadicea, the legendary female warrior who led her people in
|
||||
revolt against Gaius Caligula, a sexually depraved and corrupt man, is
|
||||
pictured crouching beneath orchids and foxheads. The warrior woman's power is
|
||||
concealed beneath a decidedly feminine floral arrangement. The ability of a
|
||||
woman to be powerful is further evidenced in the translation of Bodicea's
|
||||
name: She who brings victory.
|
||||
|
||||
From her examination of what could be possible for a woman to achieve Rich
|
||||
shows the reader what she sees currently among women: "Two handsome women,
|
||||
gripped in argument, / each proud, acute, subtle, I hear scream / across the
|
||||
cut glass and majolica / like Furies cornered from their prey" (Rich 33-6).
|
||||
Women, who have so much power hidden under the orchids of potential fail to
|
||||
use it, instead they squabble and bicker. Ad feminam is defined as "Appealing
|
||||
to irrelevant personal considerations concerning women, especially
|
||||
prejudices," and Rich brings the point home to her readers. She takes the
|
||||
knives that other women have stabbed her in the back with and drives them
|
||||
right back into the source. There seems to be puzzlement in Rich's voice in
|
||||
stanza 3, comparing women to Furies and noting that the knives they stab one
|
||||
another with are rusted, which is indicative of old fights. The last lines of
|
||||
the poem further underline this as Rich calls women "ma semblable, ma souer!"
|
||||
(Rich 39), (my similar, my sisters) is a desperate cry to unity.
|
||||
|
||||
The author continues on in this vein in stanza 4, with the admission that
|
||||
women, and Rich herself see this disunity in each other. That women know the
|
||||
gifts that lie dormant in them fail to come to fruition is a spiritual thorn,
|
||||
continually being sharpened by frustration. Rich knows that in herself as
|
||||
well as others they remain tied to domestic tasks, sedentary lifestyles
|
||||
"Reading while waiting/ for the iron to heat, / writing" (Rich 43-4) and
|
||||
failing to strike while the iron is hot, when change should happen. The
|
||||
reader would be remiss not to notice that what Rich is writing is "My Life has
|
||||
stood-a Loaded Gun-" (Rich 45), and that she is like that loaded gun: Ready
|
||||
to go off and cause damage, to burst free as bullet leaves a chamber. Jellies
|
||||
that sit static in a pantry, yet still have the energy to boil and scum, to
|
||||
continue chemical reactions and putrefy, emphasize the motion implied in the
|
||||
gun. The writer is "iron-eyed and beaked and purposed as a bird" (Rich 48) to
|
||||
show again that she wants to fly free, but instead continues to be weighted
|
||||
with the tedium of "dusting everything on the whatnot every day of life"
|
||||
(Rich 49).
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 5 is a short stanza about what Rich is supposed to do, and what she is
|
||||
supposed to present to the world: she is supposed to have a sweet smile and a
|
||||
sweet laugh, to shave her legs to be beautiful to her husband. The act of
|
||||
shaving makes her legs shine like a mammoth tusk, and like a mammoth tusk she
|
||||
should be as delicate and unreachable as a museum exhibit. She is also a
|
||||
prisoner of the old concepts of groomed beauty as surely as the tusk is a
|
||||
prisoner of the velvet ropes that hold it on a pedestal.
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 6 gives Rich's feminine side a chance to shine through. In the first
|
||||
part she shows us Corinna who is able to play the lute. Corinna is Rich, with
|
||||
her gift of music equaling Rich's gift for words. Of course the gift, the
|
||||
power of this talent is still seen in a man's eye. Her gift is a pale
|
||||
imitation of what men are. "...Corinna, following in the footsteps of men,
|
||||
cannot call her music her own, just as a woman writer attempting to imitate
|
||||
the masters denies her own literary voice" (Dixon 3).
|
||||
|
||||
Rich continues to use a bird as a symbol showing it "Poised, trembling and
|
||||
unsatisfied, before / and unlocked door, that cage of cages," (Rich 60-1) and
|
||||
although the door is not bolted it forms a prison nonetheless. Her
|
||||
"fertilisante douleur", her pain is absolute and paralyzing and she is kept
|
||||
there by preconceived ideas of "love" and "natural action". Nature has shown
|
||||
her the household books, the ledgers of what should be done that she never
|
||||
bothered to show to men, and this knowledge continues to hold Rich, no matter
|
||||
how she struggles or hurts.
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 7 begins with a quotation by "a woman" that Rich does not name. The
|
||||
reader could assume that it is the voice of Rich taken from outside the poem
|
||||
to make a point. The quotation tells the reader that one must have something
|
||||
rock solid to cling to in life, in order to make it bearable. The author had
|
||||
her life as a housewife, but it was her life as a writer that she was able to
|
||||
keep as something that was the bedrock of life. Rich, by remaining in her
|
||||
life of domestic toil is only partly brave or good and understands only part
|
||||
of her world. She is conflicted by her desire to fly and the need to stay as
|
||||
taught by society. Rich, however, in trying to reconcile these two parts of
|
||||
her soul is trying to understand her life whereas "Few men about her would or
|
||||
could do more," (Rich 75). The backlash because she tries to understand and
|
||||
make vocal her problems with this life causes those outside of her to label
|
||||
her with hateful names.
|
||||
|
||||
Rich begins stanza 8 with a quote, presumably from _Enlightenment_ writer
|
||||
Denis Diderot. In it Diderot states that she/women will die at fifteen which
|
||||
was considered a marriageable age for young women. Eyes, the window to the
|
||||
soul, are being closed and then blanketed with steam. The eyes are obscured
|
||||
in two ways, doubling the sense of loss that Rich must have felt at the time.
|
||||
She goes on to write that "all that we might have been,/ all that we
|
||||
were-fire, tears, wit, taste, martyred ambition-" (Rich 81-3). These fine
|
||||
things are tamped down in order to make a new life with a man, but still they
|
||||
stir at the bottom of memory, waiting to come to the fore of life. The
|
||||
daughter-in-law has sacrificed her ambition and passions to the "normal" life
|
||||
that she was always told to have, and this becomes more apparent as mid-life
|
||||
with flagging and possibly sagging bosom reminds her of what was.
|
||||
|
||||
Stanza 9 gives the reader further insight into Rich's conception of the male
|
||||
dominated world. Even time is a male, prone to slip into his cups while
|
||||
looking at women as invalids or saluting only their beauty, never their minds.
|
||||
Their body is what matters to time and history although their bodies are weak,
|
||||
only for display. Time only praises half-hearted attempts by women and sees
|
||||
them as slatterns who are to be forgiven for simple transgressions. Of
|
||||
course, as Rich is quick to point out, those who dare to cast off that mold or
|
||||
to strike out on their own must fear retribution. The author brings the
|
||||
horrors of war into the household as graphic examples of what waits for women
|
||||
who "cast too bold a shadow", confinement, tear gas, shelling. It is
|
||||
interesting that Rich uses as punishment those things that men typically use
|
||||
against other men, taking the post World War II violence that many of them may
|
||||
have brought home with them and opening the home makers life to them.
|
||||
|
||||
"Snapshots of a Daughter-in-Law" ends with Rich giving in to some of her
|
||||
thoughts of escapism and perhaps a small jibe at the longer form she used in
|
||||
the poem. It begins with "Well, / she's long about her coming, who must be /
|
||||
more merciless to herself than history" (Rich 108-10). The poem draws to a
|
||||
close and Rich is telling the reader that she is the one who has to deal with
|
||||
all of these conflicting emotions, and that nothing history can say about her
|
||||
will ever equal the conclusions she had to reach by herself. One startling
|
||||
shift in her voice is the change from a bird wanting to be free to a
|
||||
helicopter. The reader could see a bird gracefully flapping to gain altitude
|
||||
and fly away whereas a helicopter literally beats the air into submission with
|
||||
its rotors. A helicopter flies not by working within the natural realm as
|
||||
birds to, but by rising through sheer force. A helicopter is a mechanized,
|
||||
powerful, masculine thing. Rich's cargo is not a nebulous promise but
|
||||
something real and concrete, that can be held and delivered. Most importantly
|
||||
she calls the promise "ours" (Rich 122) showing that she was able to escape
|
||||
and so can other women.

|
||||
|
||||
I'd like to tell the story of a man named Jack Irrelland. When Jack was a
|
||||
small boy, growing up on the West Coast, his mother would often take him on
|
||||
walks about the neighborhood. On these walks, a man would often walk in front
|
||||
of them with his dog. This man was a large specimen, of Mongo-Jonesian
|
||||
proportions. As Jack was but a little fellow, he could see only one thing
|
||||
during these walks, this man's enormous buttocks. And day after day, week
|
||||
after week, Jack fell in love with those buttocks and hoped that he would
|
||||
someday have buttocks like those.
|
||||
|
||||
The years passed, and Jack blossomed into a respectable looking human being.
|
||||
However, he lacked the one physical asset he craved, those gargantuan gluteal
|
||||
muscles. He looked about for means of obtaining this feature, the object of
|
||||
his early love. Due to his heritage, his parents only bought a reasonable
|
||||
amount of food, so that he could not consume vast quantities of food in an
|
||||
effort to enlarge himself in the hope of consequently enlarging his buttocks.
|
||||
|
||||
One night, as he lay in his bed, he became frustrated with the apparent
|
||||
futility of his quest. He took his pillow and began beating on to relieve his
|
||||
frustration, when he stumbled upon his solution. Jack quickly moved to his
|
||||
closet and retrieved a large pair of pants, a foolish purchase that he made
|
||||
while in the grips of his buttocks lust. He put the pants on, though they fit
|
||||
him not. He took his two full-sized pillows and placed one on each back side
|
||||
of the pants. Eureka! Jack now had the buttocks he long desired.
|
||||
|
||||
Fortunately for Jack, his parents were moving soon, so he wouldn't have to
|
||||
explain his new appearance to his classmates. His parents were unconcerned,
|
||||
as they had long thought their son a sort of queerish little man. Jack went
|
||||
on to earn to attend a prestigious law school on the West Coast. He
|
||||
encountered a few difficulties at the school, mostly with finding seating that
|
||||
could accommodate his large artificial posterior. He found life in the city
|
||||
inconvenient after his transformation. In time, Jack grew to love the sea,
|
||||
seeing in it a vastness that could easily deal with his newfound girth in a
|
||||
way the land never could. Thus, Jack decided to specialize in maritime law,
|
||||
and after three years he graduated.
|
||||
|
||||
Proceeding on to the next duly appointed stage in life, Jack was wed. Before
|
||||
he had a chance to conceive a child, however, the government approached him
|
||||
and asked if he would take on one of their agents, a small, powerful man who
|
||||
had an uncanny resemblance to a young girl, as their child. Jack, honored to
|
||||
serve his country, took on the government agent, and with his wife, relocated
|
||||
to Lubbock, TX, a city ironically nicknamed Lowbuttocks.
|
||||
|
||||
Jack began to teach at a local high school, where he soon encountered his
|
||||
arch-enemy, another boy that Jack's parents might have referred to as a
|
||||
"queerish little man." This arch-enemy was mocked by Jack, though unbeknownst
|
||||
to Jack, he was already a ruler of the earth. They battled long and often,
|
||||
but the arch-enemy's greatest victory came in the discovery of Jack's darkest
|
||||
secret: the truth behind his fattish backside. He exposed Jack to his fellow
|
||||
classmates, and the name "Pillows" began to be whispered in every bathroom
|
||||
stall and lunch line. Jack, devastated by this discovery, knew that he must
|
||||
flee Lubbock, lest his other secret, the harboring of a government agent, be
|
||||
revealed as well. Thus, on some rather ridiculous pretense of dissatisfaction
|
||||
with his employment, Jack returned to the West Coast, with his wife and the
|
||||
government agent in tow.
|
||||
|
||||
Did Jack's secret ever lead to his doom? What was the government agent's
|
||||
mission, and did he ever succeed? What brand and type of pillows did he use,
|
||||
and how often did he need to replace them? Alas, these questions must be
|
||||
answered by a different hand. I leave you with this short verse, composed by
|
||||
the arch-enemy on the eve of Jack's flight from Lubbock:
|
||||
|
||||
O Pillows, why do you run?
|
||||
The time for fear is done
|
||||
Remove those foolish things
|
||||
We'll forgive everything
|
||||
|
||||
O Pillows, you look absurd
|
||||
Though you went to Stanford
|
||||
You won't escape my dominion
|
||||
Though Spain sank into oblivion
|
||||
|
||||
O Pillows, what will you do?
|
||||
The pillows cannot save you
|
||||
One day they will get flat
|
||||
Then where will you be at?
|
||||
|
||||
Admittedly, the verse is terrible, but the arch-enemy wasn't too bright,
|
||||
though he did discover the pillows. Let this tale be a lesson to all those
|
||||
who become enamored with the giant ass of a girthful man: one day your secret
|
||||
will be discovered, and you must hide in shame with your wife and government
|
||||
agent.

*** ABSTRACT ***
|
||||
|
||||
In this treatise, I will examine the growing phenomenon known as Social
|
||||
Stigmata. Our fellow dr00g, Ciacco the Hog, suffered a severe bout of Social
|
||||
Stigmata recently, so it seems timely to investigate social Stigmata now.
|
||||
This treatise is unique in the literature. Despite an exhaustive search, I
|
||||
have been unable to find any legitimate research into this topic. The basics
|
||||
of Social Stigmata are discussed, conclusions are drawn, and a case study is
|
||||
provided in an effort to explain actions that can be taken to alleviate the
|
||||
effects of the disorder.
|
||||
|
||||
*** KEYWORDS ***
|
||||
|
||||
Stigmata; social setting; social situation; blood; bleeding; gut;
|
||||
psychobabble; anxiety; social anxiety disorder; drugs; wounds of Christ;
|
||||
crucifixion; cruci-fiction; dr00gscience; pseudo-science; religious
|
||||
manifestations in public places
|
||||
|
||||
*** INTRODUCTION ***
|
||||
|
||||
Despite vigorous research on the topic, I have been unable to uncover even one
|
||||
article in the literature that discusses Social Stigmata of this sort. There
|
||||
are a multitude of references to "social stigmata" (note the lowercase "s"),
|
||||
but this is merely because the plural of "stigma" is "stigmata," and the
|
||||
definitions of "social stigma" are well established in the literature (1-3 and
|
||||
many others). In this article, I will discuss Social Stigmata (capital "S"),
|
||||
referring to The Stigmata.
|
||||
|
||||
*** BACKGROUND ***
|
||||
|
||||
The Stigmata are the wounds that the Romans made when they allegedly pounded
|
||||
nails into the hands and feet of Jesus of Nazareth (5). Also included as
|
||||
Stigmata are the wounds to the head, back, and side that were allegedly
|
||||
suffered by the aforementioned Nazarene from a crown of thorns, lashing, and
|
||||
a spear. Thus, The Stigmata are not just any old garden-variety "stigmata;"
|
||||
They are Worthy Of Capitalization because They relate to the one that is
|
||||
called I Am.
|
||||
|
||||
Incidentally, The Stigmata have been referenced in popular culture (6-7 and
|
||||
many others that are less-worthy of mention here; and you know that they then
|
||||
must be pretty crappy...the Ministry song is decent, but the movie is
|
||||
forgettable and little more than a 2 hour music video).
|
||||
|
||||
Social Stigmata occur when someone experiences The Stigmata in a social
|
||||
setting. Not just this, actually, but when the social setting brings on The
|
||||
Stigmata. Whereas the standard introvert will merely sweat when forced to
|
||||
interact with people at a party, the Social Stigmatic will begin to bleed
|
||||
from his/her hands, feet, head, back, and side. As a result of this bleeding,
|
||||
people usually recoil from the Social Stigmatic with equal parts horror and
|
||||
disgust. Then, other party-goers summon a large, ogreish fellow named Rocco
|
||||
to eject the Social Stigmatic from the proceedings.
|
||||
|
||||
The causes of Social Stigmata are many and varied. These include:
|
||||
hemophilia, devout and irrational Christianity, listening to Linkin Park, and
|
||||
prostitutes (see this author's "Call for Legalized Prostitution" (4)). When
|
||||
you elicit the services of a prostitute, make sure that you bring some of your
|
||||
closest friends with you. Have them surround the prostitute. If she begins
|
||||
bleeding, it means one of two things: 1. she has a serious venereal disease
|
||||
or 2. she has Social Stigmata. Either way, you would be well-advised to keep
|
||||
your distance, or it could get messy.
|
||||
|
||||
*** CONCLUSIONS ***
|
||||
|
||||
You do not need to fear the Social Stigmatic. Sure, if the Social Stigmatic
|
||||
has AIDS, you will probably get infected and die. But look at Magic Johnson;
|
||||
he allegedly has AIDS, but you still see him strutting his stuff. Other than
|
||||
the possibility of death, what else is there to worry about? You might get
|
||||
some of his blood on your pants, but those pants are probably already stained
|
||||
by someone else's seminal fluids (after all, you're at a party when the Social
|
||||
Stigmatic reveals himself).
|
||||
|
||||
*** DEALING WITH A SOCIAL STIGMATIC ***
|
||||
|
||||
If you or someone you know is a Social Stigmatic, do not be alarmed. Follow
|
||||
these easy steps and all will be well. However, proceed with caution.
|
||||
|
||||
1) Isolate the Social Stigmatic. C'mon, bleeding everywhere? That's just
|
||||
gross.
|
||||
2) Force the Social Stigmatic to eat large quantities of food. Social
|
||||
Stigmata can be cured by morbid obesity. Remember that, kids.
|
||||
|
||||
*** CASE STUDY ***
|
||||
|
||||
To depict the proper response to an outburst of Social Stigmata, consider how
|
||||
we handled Ciacco the Hog. He showed up at GwD Fest 2005 and was swarmed by
|
||||
several newly-inducted dr00gs who had grown up inspired by his masterpiece
|
||||
"Remembering Porkins" (6). Suddenly, Ciacco's hands and feet began to bleed.
|
||||
|
||||
Lobo Licious and Bob the Master of the World, recognizing the signs of
|
||||
Social Stigmata from their days in psych-divinity school, parted the crowd
|
||||
and forced Ciacco to eat lots and lots of food. Ciacco began to grow calm,
|
||||
as his gut, Nigel, commanded him to calm down.
|
||||
|
||||
The two imperial dr00gs continued to feed Ciacco until Nigel ruptured. While
|
||||
the rupturing was far more disgusting than his bleeding had been, at least
|
||||
Ciacco's hands and feet no longer bore The Stigmata. It should thus be noted
|
||||
that while consumption of mass quantities of food can cure (or at least
|
||||
assuage the symptoms of) Social Stigmata, it can itself have dangerous side
|
||||
effects.

|
||||
|
||||
Let's get something clear here. You are not a "Spiritual Person." You have
|
||||
no concept of the higher glory of the spirit. You mix new age bullshit with
|
||||
old time religion and you create this deity, this beard in the clouds who
|
||||
gives a damn about you. You blithely assume that because the prohibition
|
||||
against bacon is out the window that you can pick and choose from the Old
|
||||
Testament, and further, you seem to think that just because you own a book on
|
||||
Angels and live in what is termed a "Christian Nation" that you have some kind
|
||||
of one up on the rest of the universe.
|
||||
|
||||
Somehow, this twisted mish-mash of various and sundry spirituality seems to
|
||||
grant you insight into the higher order of the universe. You're like this
|
||||
knucklehead (URL no longer resolves, alas). Somehow, you think that even when
|
||||
you live (metaphorically) in the home of an ex-Waffen SS officer, near a
|
||||
concentration camp where thousands of people died, that some angel or ghost or
|
||||
ghost of an angel is going to swoop down from the heavenly host and change
|
||||
some traffic lights so you make it to work on time. Let's try to clarify this
|
||||
a bit: You think that a being of divine creation that spends its time
|
||||
praising God for all eternity or destroying cities that happen to be rife with
|
||||
wickedness has the time in their celestial Day Runner to make sure your
|
||||
fucking nonfat mochachino is ready quickly so that you don't miss the fucking
|
||||
trailers at the vapid and empty film you are going to see? You think they
|
||||
found your keys today? While people die of starvation all over the world on a
|
||||
daily basis, you think that an angel took the time out of their day to make
|
||||
sure your huge ass didn't have to walk through three rooms to find the keys to
|
||||
your SUV? And you honestly believe this because it said it in a book you got
|
||||
on the bargain spirituality table at your local faceless book emporium? The
|
||||
one right next to the tarot cards? The tarot cards that are pretty much a no
|
||||
go in YOUR BIBLE?
|
||||
|
||||
Well, here's the problem. You are an idiot. Well, maybe not an idiot, I'm
|
||||
feeling charitable. There was a can of Vienna Sausages in the cabinet I
|
||||
didn't know about, so at least I get dinner tonight. No, you are gullible.
|
||||
You assume that because something is wrapped in shiny words, it must be good.
|
||||
If the back cover of someone's books says they have a PhD in angelology, well
|
||||
it must be good. Obviously, they did eight years of school to get that
|
||||
degree, and since we've established you lack the capability to ask yourself,
|
||||
"Is there really a PhD in angelology?" they must be learned. You would go out
|
||||
of your way to pick up a book that says it's used by the military and purports
|
||||
to hold great secrets
|
||||
(http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?isbn=0938294369).
|
||||
You assume that what it says on the cover is true. It's a mystical book so it
|
||||
must be kept from the normal people like yourself who would only use it for
|
||||
good. Obviously, it is a secret the warmongers want to keep to themselves.
|
||||
Bullshit. I was in the Army and I can tell you this: I can put a 120mm tank
|
||||
round into a mouse ass from four thousand meters, I can call artillery onto a
|
||||
busload of children with nothing but a pair of binoculars and my hand, I can
|
||||
clean a latrine so well that your guardian angel would take a day off to
|
||||
admire it, but I sure as fuck can't make myself invisible.
|
||||
|
||||
You want to be spiritual, you read the Bible. You want that connection to a
|
||||
deity, then you just say, "OK, this is my commitment. I don't do bad things,
|
||||
I aspire to live like Jesus." That's it, that's all there is to it. You
|
||||
don't buy books and cards and candles and hope to learn some mystical shit.
|
||||
That isn't spirituality, that is signing up to be a magician's assistant.
|
||||
Done.
|
||||
|
||||
Ok, I can't talk at you anymore. It always makes my chest hurt and my left
|
||||
arm go numb. You're a jerk.

Not so long ago, right here in our scuzz-bucket of a galaxy, three movies
|
||||
changed the world. Now, the STAR WARS saga is continuing, and we're here to
|
||||
get our names associated with it in any way we can. That's right, "GwD: The
|
||||
American Dream with a Twist -- of Lime" is continuing in its self-proclaimed
|
||||
role as THE unOFFICIAL STAR WARS E-ZINE. This here is the third installment,
|
||||
aptly titled,
|
||||
|
||||
"EPISODE III: RETURN OF the GwD STAR WARS Special."
|
||||
|
||||
The stuff in this file is from a few sources. No copyright infringement is
|
||||
intended. We merely feel that this stuff is worthy of preservation. Authors
|
||||
are credited where we know who wrote this stuff. For posterity, my friends,
|
||||
we're saving this crap for posterity.
|
||||
|
||||
It should be noted that the content of this issue of THE GwD STAR WARS SPECIAL
|
||||
is much more cynical and jaded than the last two. That is largely due to the
|
||||
fact that we haven't been inundated with Star Wars-related forwards this time.
|
||||
That's also due to the fact that many of us have a love-hate relationship with
|
||||
Lucas's creation.

|

-> a. fastjack and Lobo Licious discuss Star Wars
|
||||
|
||||
fj: Well, I did go into an hour long rant yesterday at work about my problems
|
||||
with timeline continuity in Star Wars between EP 3 and EP 4. It was
|
||||
baaaaaaaad. I used words like "canon" and "dilution of the brand if the Zahn
|
||||
books get made into film". I mean bad. I stopped at one point and went "What
|
||||
the hell did I just say?"
|
||||
|
||||
LL: <laughs> I think the probability of making the zahn books into films
|
||||
approaches zero. Also, I read that there's going to be 2 Star Wars tv series
|
||||
(serieses?), both of which (I think) take place between ep3 and 4. Though I
|
||||
could be full of shit about the books. And about the shows.
|
||||
|
||||
fj: Yeah. Those shows would, in my opinion, blast the timeline further.
|
||||
However, as I keep saying, my relationship is like a wife who gets beat. I'll
|
||||
just keep going back.
|
||||
|
||||
LL: That's really bad. But funny.
|
||||
|
||||
fj: Well, it's true. No matter how bad the films, I keep going back. I
|
||||
mean, it's Star Wars. I remember that when EP 1 came out, it was on my
|
||||
birthday, I had just split up with Nicole for the 1st time. Work sucked.
|
||||
Life sucked. And I went with the assumption that it would be good based on
|
||||
the trailers. Then, I watched a goddamn 7 hour race and was introduced to
|
||||
"midicholrians". Whack, right in the eye. And yet, when EP2 came out I said
|
||||
"I fell into a doorknob. I just want to be with George again."
|
||||
|
||||
LL: <laughs>
|
||||
|
||||
fj: These are the conversations my GF should never be privy to.
|
||||
|
||||
LL: You're probably right. So, maybe you shouldn't tell her about this
|
||||
stuff.
|
||||
|
||||
fj: <laughs> You know, that's the best part. I joke about being a closet
|
||||
geek, but later I tell her about it. She thinks I'm 1.) Hilarious. 2.)
|
||||
Insane. She seems to be down with my nerdy stylee.
|
||||
|
||||
LL: Yeah, my wife is cool like that, too...definitely down with my nerd/geek
|
||||
stuff.
|
||||
|
||||
fj: A rare quality, to be sure.
|
||||
|
||||
LL: Indeed. Lucky fellows are we.

-> b. JUST A FEW OF THE REASONS WHY STAR WARS IS BETTER THAN REAL LIFE:
|
||||
|
||||
[Just to prove that we aren't totally cynical, we're including this tidbit we
|
||||
found that doesn't assume that Episode III will suck OR compare Star Wars
|
||||
addiction to an abusive relationship. -Ed.]
|
||||
|
||||
1. In real life, people drive "the Pacer", "the Pinto", and "the Station
|
||||
Wagon"
|
||||
In Star Wars, people drive "Speeder Bikes", "X-wing fighters", and "the
|
||||
Millenium Falcon."
|
||||
|
||||
2. In real life, bar fights with strange looking people are often
|
||||
looked at as bad and sinful;
|
||||
In Star Wars, bar fights with strange looking creatures is heroic and
|
||||
the way of the just Jedi Knight.
|
||||
|
||||
3. In real life, people that talk to small fuzzy creatures are called
|
||||
crazy;
|
||||
In Star Wars, people that talk to small fuzzy creatures are called
|
||||
galactic ambassadors.
|
||||
|
||||
4. In real life, people who dress up in tight plastic/leather outfits are
|
||||
considered tacky and queer;
|
||||
In Star Wars, they're called "Storm Troopers" and are feared by all.
|
||||
|
||||
5. In real life, people often stink up the bathroom with their fecal odors,
|
||||
toilet paper runs out, and people get diarrhea;
|
||||
In Star Wars, no one has ever used the bathroom.
|
||||
|
||||
6. In real life, tall hairy, humanlike creatures are rarely seen by
|
||||
backwoods alcoholics, and are named ridiculous things like "Bigfoot"
|
||||
and "Sasquatch";
|
||||
In Star Wars, tall hairy humanlike creatures are called Wookiees, and
|
||||
have their own language, planet, social structure, and carry
|
||||
formidable weaponry
|
||||
|
||||
7. In real life, people must deal with the problems of children;
|
||||
In Star Wars, children do not exist.
|
||||
|
||||
8. In real life, it is often difficult to understand the languages of
|
||||
others, such as 7-11 employees, fast food window operators, and
|
||||
college profs.;
|
||||
In Star Wars, everyone understands everybody, regardless of language
|
||||
barriers.
|
||||
|
||||
9. In real life, the extremely obese are often sadly shunned by society;
|
||||
In Star Wars, the extremely obese Jabba the Hutt is a pimp daddy, and
|
||||
has his own sail barge, lounge room, and scantily clad female
|
||||
dancers to keep him occupied--he is envied by all.
|
||||
|
||||
10. In real life, people often have problems doing simple mechanical things
|
||||
like operating can openers, programming VCRs, and playing Nintendo;
|
||||
In Star Wars, Droids do all the busy work in half the time.
|
||||
|
||||
11. In real life, some people are complete losers;
|
||||
In Star Wars, everybody has a story to tell that's worth listening to.
|
||||
|
||||
12. In real life, people sometimes smell;
|
||||
In Star Wars, people are never "ripe", and yet they need not shower.

-=> II. EPISODE THREE <=-
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
-> "Episode III Trailer" by Jaffo
|
||||
|
||||
The Star Wars Episode III Trailer is out, and it basically gives away
|
||||
everything.
|
||||
|
||||
I am consumed by anticipation and dread, as I wait for George Lucas to piss
|
||||
away the last of my childhood memories.
|
||||
|
||||
We know it's going to suck; the rest is only a matter of degree.
|
||||
|
||||
My expectations have been spun so low at this point, I was actually impressed
|
||||
by what I saw in the trailer. Not by the plot, which is certainly a lost
|
||||
cause, but by the visuals, which are even cooler than I thought they would be.
|
||||
|
||||
I saw that trailer and thought, "Wow. I can't wait for the video game."
|
||||
|
||||
Jedi and Sith and Clone Troopers in all colors of the rainbow. Magnificent
|
||||
set pieces and special effects that drop like candy from a digital pinata.
|
||||
|
||||
This movie is a two-hour music video composed by George Lucas and John
|
||||
Williams. If I start practicing now, I should be able to ignore the plot
|
||||
completely.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm excited about the Star Wars films, not for what they are now, but for what
|
||||
I imagine they will be, in the interdeterminate future when Lucas is dead. I
|
||||
want to write novels about an alternate Star Wars universe where Anakin
|
||||
Skywalker was never born.
|
||||
|
||||
I want to see the movies that should have been made in the past ten years.
|
||||
Basically, Lucas gave in to his worst instincts and ignored the human element
|
||||
that made his films such a success.
|
||||
|
||||
I said it once, I'll say it a thousand times. These films should have been
|
||||
about the life of Han Solo, the rise and fall of an Imperial Officer, driven
|
||||
by conscience, and the love of a Wookiee, to turn away from his government
|
||||
and strike out on his own.
|
||||
|
||||
Forget all this Jedi crap and send the Brits back to London. That's the story
|
||||
I want to see.
|
||||
|
||||
Fortunately, someone has already written a great story in the Star Wars
|
||||
universe. It's call Knights of the Old Republic, and a sequel is on the
|
||||
way...
|
||||
|
||||
George Lucas may not know how to handle his universe, but Obsidian does, and
|
||||
the future belongs to the fans.
