Letters to Pigdog -- Reported 2000-10-17 by Johnny Royale | |
Here's an interesting item that just showed up in our mailbag. Seems some freaks in Germany are convinced that Pigdog is part of the great Tellytubbie Conspiracy. I'm figuring that some WebCrawler ran across this wonderful old RatSnatcher article, and we ended up in some half-assed marketing daturbase. And the funny thing is that he insists that this is piece of SPAM is confidential information. No, I'm sorry Robert, if you want something to remain confidential with Pigdog, you ask us first and maybe, just maybe, we'll agree to let you be one of our sooper serkit confidential information sources. But don't ever tell us to do anything... like delete an email, or not copy it or even email you to unsubscribe us from your damn SPAM list. You unsubscribe us. Cause if you sending us unsolicited email - you should know, we're JOURNALISTS GODDMANNIT, and we'll publish WHATEVER the hell we want! Oh, and one more thing, Robert... Tellytubbies suck a big gooey wad of hate and I'm laughing at you because you have to deal with them all day long. Enjoy your small pathetic life, Robert.

During a magnificent sunny day in a fast receding autumn, the Spock Science Monitor reporters once again blew the playa dust off of their computers and covered the 2002 Burning Man Decompression – held every year just east of Portola Hill in beautiful San Francisco. Both an afternoon and evening issues were released to the unsuspecting crowd of freaks attempting to in some small way experience the euphoria of the playa – if but for a brief afternoon far from the desolation of Northern Nevada.

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.

Johnnie Royale's Guide to Wakes
Wakes can present problems for Bad People of the Future. (If you don't know what a BPotF is, you need to read more of the PDJ.) Sure, your friend is gone and you miss him and that really sucks; it does, I know. But all Bad People of the Future are gonna die, and they have all accepted that fact. They do deserve, however, to have one final kickass party to celebrate all the bad things they've done in the past, present and future. And you, as a friend, have to make sure that their desire for a final send off is well executed (sorry for the pun). That's just the way of BPotFdom. (More...)
