As your attorney, it is my duty to inform you that it is not important that you understand what I'm doing or why you're paying me so much money. What's important is that you continue to do so.

Webzine 99 is July 24th - Rocking
1999-07-09 09:28:53
Now is the time on Webzines when we DANCE! It's time once again for Webzine 9x, the Web zinemakers' confab and celebration. You should COME!
Pigdog Journal sent a recon team to Webzine 98 here in San Francisco last year, and we had a real good time. My one big complaint was that it didn't seem like there was enough grass-roots involvement from Web zine makers like us.
But not this year! PDJ is going to be OUT IN FORCE for Webzine99, and we'll be participating at all levels. It's still possible for YOU, independent Web content creator, to get in the door, too. You should look at this site, sign up, get into it, and get on stage.
Not to toot our own horn, but it's a BITCH to get a Web zine going. Many are called, but few are chosen. We deserve a party. If you make a zine, so do you.
Tell yer zinester friends that Webzine 99 is the place to be, eh. More zinesters, more fun, more CRAZINESS and techno music and Digital GAR GAR GAR! Don't let the assholes and dilettantes take over the Web -- check out Webzine 99.

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.

The One I Feel Sorry For Is Joses
We've had a lot of Jesus coverage lately here at the PDJ. But let's face it, we're not exactly cutting-edge in this subject area. Jesus has been making headlines for, oh, I guess it's a couple thousand years now. Jesus is a very strong brand. Jesus has a lot of mindshare. (More...)
Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
