celine (Robert Fullmer):
College football is a game which would be much more interesting if the
faculty played instead of the students, and even more interesting if
the trustees played. There would be a great increase in broken arms,
legs, and necks, and simultaneously an appreciable diminution in the
loss to humanity.
-- H. L. Mencken

donut (Jeff Parker):
"My family is just a little weird
Daddy wears a dress and Mommy grows a beard
The neighbors they complain all the time
Grandma's hooked on barbs and wine."
Millions of Dead Cops
"Elvis was a hero to most
He never meant shit to me
The dude was racist, simple and plain
Motherfuck him and John Wayne
We've got to fight the powers that be."
Public Enemy

dpeisach (Daniel Peisach):
You know I love that organic cooking - I always ask for more.
And they call me "Mr. Natural" on down to the health food store.
I only eat good sea salt, white sugar don't touch my lips.
And my friends are always begging me to take them on macro-body trips.
But at night I take out my strongbox, that I keep under lock and key.
And I take it off to my closet, where nobody else can see.
I open that door so slowly, take a peek up north and south.
Then I pull out a hostess twinkie and pop it in my mouth!
[Chorus]
In the daytime I'm "Mr. Natural." Just as healthy as I can be.
But at night I'm a junkfood junkie, good lord have pity on me.
Well at lunchtime you can always find me at the Whole Earth vitamin bar
Just sucking on my plain white yogurt from a hand thrown pottery jar
And sipping a little hand pressed cider with a carrot stick for desert.
And wiping my face in a natural way on the sleave of my peasant shirt.
But when that clock strikes midnight, and I'm all by myself.
I work at combination on my secret hide-away shelf.
And I pull out some Frito corn chips, dr. pepper and an old moon pie.
Then I sit back in glorious expectation of a genuine junk food high.
[Chorus]
In the daytime I'm "Mr. Natural." Just as healthy as I can be.
But at night I'm a junkfood junkie, good lord have pity on me.
My friends down at the commune, they think I'm pretty neat.
I don't know nothing about arts and crafts but I give them all something
to eat.
I'm a friend of ol' Yule Gibbons, and I only eat home-grown spice.
I've got a John Keats autographed Grecian urn filled up with my brown rice.
But lately I have been spotted with a big mac on my breath.
Stumbling into a Colonel Sanders' with a face as white as death.
I'm afraid someday they'll find me just stretched out on my bed
With a handful of Pringles' potato chips and a ding-dong by my head.
[Chorus]
In the daytime I'm "Mr. Natural." Just as healthy as I can be.
But at night I'm a junkfood junkie, good lord have pity on me.

tom (Tom Coppeto):
3. TO WALK SLINKY DOWN INCLINE OR SLOPE
Any board or table top with a non-slip surface will do. Slope surface so
rise equals about 1 foot for every 4 foot length. Place Slinky at top,
flip, and watch Slinky start down, end over end.
[editor's note: the key is to watch it]
