SWEETNESS FOLLOWS has sent in a poem on a brown paper bag about self-defence duvets. Don't anyone tell Sly Stallone!

TATH AND BOB are going to make a mammoth effort to get onto the big pages once more, inspired by Lentils.

RAPUNZLE RAPUNZLE LET DOWN YOUR HAIR is new to our view, but is glad there's people around like her. There's loads!

DIZZY INDIE DANDELION wants to point out that Tots TV has never had a moral. Except maybe don't talk to the French.

Borearama sent a top five most boring

TOPICS OF CONVERSATION... ZZZZZZZZ

 

TO DAVE HATES RAVE

I wish I could be as naive as you - the world would be so much easier. I'm afraid that commercialism is inherent in Credit to the Nation.

Why else would somebody tag "the world's most famous riff" from Smells Like Teen Spirit onto the first single?

I doubt it was for artistic merit. Maybe I'm just cynical!?

ALBUM REVIEW - SLANT 6 - INZOMBIA

Combines tough Babes In Toyland-style punk riffs and classic Pixies melody.

Slant 6 are like a breath of fresh air in a room stagnant with the smell of trendy playschool punk-like Offspring and Green Day.

The all-girl trio breeze effortlessly through a classic album and are surely a band to be watched. The new Husker Du, methinks.

FILM REVIEW - TANK GIRL

Intelligent, hysterical, smooth, pretty, cool... just a few of the compliments I'd give Tank Girl (aka Lori Petty) if I met her.

Okay, the plot is way out but it adds to the fun. Bjork's Army Of Me is just one song on a fab soundtrack.

What can I say? Go see it!

What? No lecture about the comic being

BETTER, MORE FULL-ON? AH WELL

 

DEAR CATCHER IN THE RYE

You presume to know people very well. You must have a very shallow take on life if you have to define them with rules on how to have fun.

Try a little variation and don't put people in groups because of one social habit. Fun is about how you feel.

It is not about being seen and going out, just to be there for the sake of it. Why don't you get a life?

I don't think he has time

HE'LL PROBABLY BE OUT BOPPING

 

THE TRUE LOVE WAITS MOVEMENT

Could someone please help me out here?

On the one hand we have someone telling us that unless we believe in God 100% and don't have sex before marriage, we must believe in Satan and go to hill.

On the other hand we have people saying "God will love you forever and will forgive your sins". Which one is it?

Do other 'Zinesters agree with these religious zealots who say "True Love Waits"?
