ABI RODE WLW, some of your puns are worse than Richard Whiteley's. Obviously I consider that a compliment.

LITTLE OWL Ahh, walks in the country, countryside walks, walking, country. Sorry, I'm rambling. Boom boom! (But haven't you sent this one in before?)

BECKETTS "Intelligence is quickness to apprehend as distinct from ability, which is the capacity to act wisely on the thing apprehended" — AN Whitehead. Huhn? That's one clever zit.

 

HIGH NOON,

"The name's Bronson," stammered the puny wretch "an... an... th-this t-town ain't b-big enough fer the both of us."

Just another punk kid trying to make a name for himself, I thought.

"Go home and sober up, kid," I intoned. He flinched in terror at my words.

As I walked away I heard him go for his gun. Lightning-fast, I turned and dropped to one knee, drawing as I did so.

My Colt bucked and belched death. The kid's gun never left his holster.

Wild Bill Hiccup

Well Sheriff Bronson,

I GUESS THAT TOLD YOU!

 

LOVE,

The one thing that makes me cling to this civilisation when I crave independence has hurt me again.

I was wrong. The time for sadness has not passed.

Love is my ceiling and happiness the sky above that I never get to look upon. I just keep hitting my head every time I stand up.

The Next Big Thing in Religion

Well, as far as love goes,

SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD DAY TO ME

 

5 REASONS TO LISTEN TO JOY DIVISION,

  1. The music has real depth. RIP Ian Curtis.
  2. They've influenced loads of decent bands — eg Radiohead, Manics, etc.
  3. Nobody has heard of them, so you can feel smug.
  4. You'll get a big pat on the back from me.
  5. Let the music get to you, it will.

Agreed WLW?

TAT (Love has torn me apart)

I could bang on about when I saw them,

BUT THAT'D BE SHOWING MY AGE

 

DEAR MEGA-ZINE,

People always say how brilliant their summers were. Mine wasn't.

Loads of GCSE coursework, a severe lack of money and ten CDs and four videos I wanted.

Having glandular fever and being dumped by my girlfriend after she got off with some bloke when she went on holiday to Crete.

Anybody have a worse summer than that?
