Don't you understand?! We're all gonna DIE!!!!!
1999-05-11 22:13:39
Here are the FACTS: we're all gonna DIE. The world will end and SOON. How, and when, and why... well, that's open to discussion.
This KICKASS site is a promo for a book called "Apocalypse Pretty Soon" (har har -- get it?). Yeah, usually book- or movie-promo sites suck the big apocalyptic wanger, but this one is actually PHUNKY-PHRESH. Why? Because it's chock full of APOCALYPTIC GOODNESS.
Case in point: you can use the fabulous nearest apocalypto-map to locate the nearest weirdo apocalypse cult of your choice. And they take submissions. And it's pretty well written and what the hell just go check it out because I told you so.

Three Days and 25 Spocktails: A Cautionary Tale
Johnnie Royale picked me up from the dental surgery. I felt warm, safe, cradled in the anathesia's loving embrace. The pharmacy downstairs gave me a bottle of Vicodin and a few instructions: take it with food, don't mix with alcohol, don't operate heavy machinery. I put it in my pocket and we left. "Do you want to go home, or do you want to go to a bar?" asked Johnnie. (More...)

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...)
