THE MISTRESS OF VERBAL VOMIT sent in a top 10 of the best songs to mosh violently to. Thanks, but no thanks.
CLAIRE & ODETTA say that great minds think alike. Well, when you meet some, tell them to drop me a line.
KATE COBAIN has been to scores more gigs. We'd like to put them on, but we are getting too jealous.
SON OF A GUN has been playing Teen Spirit backwards and found it sounds like Self Esteem by Offspring.

DEAR MEGA-ZINE
The media has been in a moral panic for some time about the impact of violence on TV and in the movies, especially on the young.
The reasons why some people commit violent acts are deeply rooted in the individual's life experiences, particularly their socialisation.

ABOUT A GIRL - ODE TO VIC
Now and then, to make us hearty,
A friend of mine will throw a party.
And as regards I wrote this rhyme,
Just to thank you for all those times.

HELP!
Can someone please write in and tell me the answer to life.
My Dad says it isn't 42 because he has passed it. Perhaps it's 67?
I've tried to search for an answer, but have decided that I may actually be God and haven't realised it yet.
So that is the reason I can't think of of one, because I move in mysterious ways.

QUOTATION REVIEW - A MUNICH TEACHER
"You will never amount to very much". This school teacher said it to Albert Einstein, who was treated as being very stupid (I think he was dyslexic).
But through constant hard work and determination, he became a world renowned physicist and mathematician.
Eat your words, Mr School teacher.
