The Mega-Zine Museum
November 5—6, 2004
MISS SNAZ Sparks are flying, as well they should this time of year. Catherine wheels are my favourites.
SACRED GRAPES I'd like to share a query, but I'm selfish, so you'll just have to grin and bear it. Shame, 'cos I had the answer you were looking for.
DR NAMGGE In the great sc-ohn/sc-one debate, I'd just like to say that it's pronounced scone. Not where I come from — I call it a tea-cake.
A NOTE TO YOU ALL
It's recently come to me that a few of you may not like me here and that's not very nice.
I promise you I am a good lil' angel who'd never hurt anyone or anything... apart from the odd house spider and garden slug that is.
And as for the newbie that claims I have no charisma — take a look at yourself.
Emma-the-lil'-Angel
Now then children...
PLAY NICELY!
WEBSITES
I recently found Insane Jam Sow and Sam's Got A Snorkel's Mega-zine web sites and it reminded me of my own site that I made back in 1999.
It was one page long with a black and purple background and "Mega-zine" in green at the top with a picture of a spider.
As you can tell I never got around to finishing it. It could have been great, the next Friends Reunited. Sigh...
Howllin' Pelle
Hmmmm, black and purple
IT COULD BE THE NEW RED AND ORANGE
RANDOMERS
Can you imagine how many 'Ziners you might know without knowing it? Only yesterday, I was talking to someone and realised that they too were a 'Ziner.
I know for certain there are three people in my college are 'Ziners. There may be loads in Bury.
Maybe everyone is secretly a 'Ziner? That thought scares me.
Numberthree
Why keep it it a secret?
BE PROUD TO BE A 'ZINER!
CHOICE OF FOODSTUFFS
I'd like to deny any allegations made on these pages that I am a vegetarian.
How is it possible for me to be a vegetarian when I tuck into a tasty vole every evening?
Now if they can make any synthetic rodent food then I suggest you keep your views to yourself. Thank you.
The Owl of Bewilderment
Sorry, but I have to say
YOUR TASTE IN FOOD IS AW-VOLE!
FUN WITH MICROSOFT WORD
- Open a new Microsoft Word document.
- Save it, using a 'Ziner of your choice (not me) for the file name.
- Open My Computer to delete it.
Your computer will now display a humorous message. My own personal favourite is shown below.
"Are you sure you want to send that eejit Farmer Jack to the recycle bin?"
The DeLorean That Got Struck By Lightning
I've always wondered about that bin
IS THERE A BICYCLE IN IT?
FARM SONGS FOR FARMER JACK
- I've Got A Brand New Combine Harvester
- The Farmer Wants A Wife (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
- Country Roads, Take Me Home
- Fields Of Gold
- Fake Plastic Trees
- Old McDonald Had A Farm
Ever wondered what came after Jack? It's McDonald silly!
I thought he may appreciate some tunes for humming around the farm.
Pyjama Princess
But who were all those people
HE TOOK TO WIDDECOMBE FAIR?
JACK HANDY
I urge everyone out there to check out the infinite wisdom and humour of this man. His quotes are easily found online and you will cry with laughter.
It might stop people stealing his quotes and passing them off as their own too.
Handyism: "What is it that makes a complete stranger dive into an icy river to save a solid gold baby? Maybe we'll never know..."
Stuttercut
Hmmmmm...
MAYBE IT'S THE WAY YOU TELL 'EM
