Jeff Gerstmann Got a Posse
1999-08-24 21:22:56
How cool is THIS: Veteran Pigdog Journalist Jeff "No Pants" Gerstmann is back in the ring to take another swing! And this time it's PERSONAL!
See, "No Pants" has been a part of the Pigdog community since back in the day. He wrote the big- hit-getting article about his night with Ron Jeremy for the highly-crazed and sideways In The Pink issue of PDJ.
Now, he's writing a column for this sicko crazy Web site, videogames.com. I admit that I haven't read much of this site, but I don't think I'm going out on a limb here by saying it's about video games and shit. All kinds of video games! The writing's pretty damn, good, too! For a bunch of gamer freak-os, I mean. Y'know.
Anyways, Jeff's got a column and stuff on this videogames.com site. It's called "Gerstmann Goes Off!", and it even has an exclamation point and like that. AND it has a little Kim Rollins fnord, too! "This is my column. There are many like it, but this one is mine." Or maybe that's from something else that I don't know about. It sounds kind of military, actually. Or like something Maya Angelou would say.
OK, but "No Pants" is apparently hot shit on a dry shingle over at the videogames.com site, I think! He's listed as "reviews editor" on the colophon page. But you have to check out how far down on the page his name is! All those marketroids and advertising villains are listed before all the editorial staff. Even the JANITOR is listed before J "NP" G. Why is that? I don't know. Upside-down priorities, if you ask me.
Anywho, if you dig games, or Ron Jeremy, or whatever, you should move on over and check out videogames.com! Really! Say hi to "No Pants" for us! And tell him to get off his high horse and come write some shit for PDJ again, eh?

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...)
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.

Spock Went, Spock Wrote, Spock Kicked Ass
Every Labor Day weekend a large portion of the PDJ staff joins 30,000 other freaks at one of the biggest and strangest art festivals in the world - Burning Man - somewhere on the edge of the Black Rock Desert. Our base of operations is always the ultra swank Spock Mountain Research Labs - the World Leaders in Beverage Science and Leisure Technology. This year, we hauled up our computers, printers and a massive digital duplicator, determined to become Black Rock City's third daily newspaper. Even Spock was surprised by our success - news will never be viewed the same on the playa. Read all seven issues of the 2002 Spock Science Monitor for yourself and see why. (More...)

The Walken / Country Bear Conspiracy
As has been recently reported in the PDJ, Christopher Walken, evil s00per villain extraordinaire, will be appearing next month in Disney's newest release, The Country Bear Movie. Always playing some wicked and very disturbed badass in movies like Sleepy Hollow, Illuminata, The Prophecy I, II, III, Pulp Fiction, Batman Returns, The Milagro Beanfield War, A View to a Kill, The Dogs of War, Heaven's Gate, and The Deer Hunter, Walken is unsuprisingly a big favorite in the PDJ news room.
