i think it's a good letter, but it probably wouldn't get on Zine.

My armadillo Ernest,
He plods along and snuffles,
He's looking for some sweets, I think -
He's really fond of truffles.
I don't know where he used to live;
You'd assume he was Texan.
But when he jeers, I think I hear,
A Portugese inflection.

There she was just walking down the street singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do". Clicking her fingers and shuffling her feet singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do". She was tied up and escaped from my basement, trying to hail a cab by clicking her fingers and shouting while gagged. I caught her though. Really hard to get a taxi these days, isn't it?


The Shamrocking Bogman





Well my friends, it seems my time here is ending. And not a happy ending like when I get a massage, or a sticky ending like when I get a second massage, but a sad ending, like when I get a third massage. Duty calls, and the Army want me back. Why? Because its my turn to give the massages. I'm scared.


Colonial Foot Soldier *salutes WLW*




(Can't remember if this was printed)

I looked out the window, gazed upon the moonlit horizon, and wondered to myself, 'If a tree falls in the woods and no-one is around to hear it, where are all the park rangers? Shouldn't they be monitoring stuff like this?'. After thinking of this, I collapsed in a fit of pure contention.

Sniggledywingwong - B-sides and Rarities
Rage Rhyme
Hey, yo, fool,
don't go dissing my style,
I'll melt you down,
like a toffee Magnum in summer,
I ain't no cul-de-sac,
I'm a super-highway,
I bend left an' I bend right,
but all my roads lead to yo'...

Drive-by Lover
Hey, yo, girl,
I ain't even kiddin',
I like you true,
I'll pop a cap of my love bullets in you.
Sorry 'bout my stray bullets,
hit yo' sister and yo' friend,
dat whack awkwardness,
I'm your drive-by lover

Bad Rap
I'm the baddest rapper on the Planet Earth,
And by bad I mean good. Haven't you heard?
What I say is the opposite, of what I mean,
Hey Little Becky Bigmouth, I bet you're clean.
Ayo, Daddypoos, you're a funny guy,
All your jokes are original, thats no lie
I've confused myself, I dont know what I mean,
I should probably just stop.

John Mahomie
I was talking to my homie,
He said he was gonna blow me,
Away with his lyrics,
Thats how rappers get their kicks,
I think he's really hot,
I want something that he's got,
He keeps it in his pants,
He's got no chance,
I'm getting my rap notes back!

Momma Sed
I still remember what my momma said, she said:
"Conor! Go to Morrisons and get some bread!", I said:
"Not now, momma, this itch is giving me head
-Aches and I'm playing Gears of War with Jed"

R 'n' B King
Oooh, oh oooooooh
I'm done being edgy,
I've gone R'n'B (R'n'B)
Oooh, oh oooooooh
I'm still just as slimy
But, blimey, I'm pretending I can sing
(It's still the same old me
There's still misogyny)
Pretending I can sing
(I'm still so self-obsessed
I still love butts and breasts)
Pretending I can sing
I'm the R'n'B king

Yeah, girl
I like it when you move closer
God, the Tube is cramped these days

Oooh, oh oooooooh
I'm blasting out tunes
From my phone, on the tube
Oooh, oh oooooooh
What's that you're reading?
'dat your R'n'B thing?
('cause I'm so sensitive,
A flying f*ck I give)
And who's Deng Xiaoping?
(Time Magazine, you say?
Well, that's just f*cking gay)
We're through, b*tch.
I'm the R'n'B king

I'm the R'n'B king

I'm the R'n'B king

I'm the R'n'B king

Backlash
I'm back I'm back I'm back I'm backattack
I'm bringing 'back' back
It was gone, but it's back
I only went so I could come back
With a backbeat and no setbacks
If you back me up I'll back you up back
But if you're in Nickelback I'll back your back in the back of the back
REWIND

Tony: Film. Film! Film?

Sorry, DJ - I sent a final solo letter assuming that our collaboration letter might make it for yesterday's - but it didn't, and my solo letter perhaps overrode the chance. I prefer this one, and it would've been nice for Sprinkles to get a last mention, but here it is anyway:

David: Now, Sprinkles, be polite.
Employee: Hello! We provide all your gericatric needs - one crazy old woman per 30 cats, a veteran vet, services at the Church of Bagpuss, 5m of twine per day, games of hair-boules and Mouse Trap...
David: See, Sprinkles - it is not so bad!
Employee: Only one loss this year, and that was due to a stroke.
Sprinkles: *MEOW!*
David: Sprinkles!!
Employee: Work Experience Damon has very strong hands.
Sprinkles: *MEOW MEOW MEOW!*
Employee: So that's why they call you Sprinkles...

Send in a batch of letters for the final few days, as space was at a premium I wasn't surprised only one was printed. Here are the others.

Quote:

Lessons In History

Contrary to popular belief, King Knut didn't actually believe he could command the waves; it was a statement to his courtiers that not everything was under his control, and there were always higher forces at work than he.

He might have been many things, but he definitely wasn't a silly Knut.

Why "Your Mum" Jokes Did Not Work In The 19th Century

Gentleman 1: I say, dear fellow!
Gentleman 2: What what?
Gentleman 1: I was meaning to talk to you just today about your dear mother.
Gentleman 2: Ah yes, what was it again?
Gentleman 1: She's a very lovely person and I did most enjoy her sparkling wit when she spoke at our dinner party yesterday.
Gentleman 2: Hmm. Indeed.
Gentleman 1: Oh look, there's some unruly Chartists! Let's crush them beneath our heels, shall we?
Gentleman 2: Oh, most unreservedly.

Boy: "Are you kidding? Are you actually kidding me?"
Boy 2: "Are you retarded? The Nazis hated Jews and stuff. They're about as evil as you get."
Girl: "I think I might be a Nazi."
Boy 2: "That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard."
Girl: "My mum says I'm smart."

PsyPo - The original potato.

The original potato.

 
This was a leaving letter I sent early in March, which didn't make the cut:

...

My Kind Of Dumplings

Hello, and welcome to Psychic Potato's My Kind Of Dumplings! Now, the perfect dumpling should have a firm crust on top, with a fluffy base. Makes a great meal for a going away party, such as the 'Zine leaving do. Thanks WLW, and other writers, for your witty muses that have entertained me over the years. Have a wonderful lemon curd!

Psychic Potato

...

I chose "lemon curd" as my last words, partly because of some obscure, long-winded rhyming slang I'd made up, and partly because I was eating it at the time.

Anyways, I tried sending a different one (SMS this time), but that also failed to get printed, probably as it wasn't really a "goodbye" sort of thing. Haven't got phone right now, but from memory it went along the lines of:

...

A few months ago, I stood in for a friend of mine at an ad agency. For a bit of a laugh, I decided to see how many adverts I could shoehorn the song "Here Come The Girls" into.

Unfortunately, it worked to well, now it's gotten way out of hand! Oh WLW, what sort of monster hath been unleashed? I'm offski!

Psychic Potato

...

Well, they were a bit crap anyway.

It is all my unseen and unfinished things. I hope they are ok! :-[

"Disney Diseases".

- Kuzco Complex – Really worried you are a llama.
- Merlin Sniffles – Turn into a different animal everytime you sneeze.
- King Louie Complex - Psychological gluttony - you have reached the top, and you have stop, and that's what's bothering you.

---

"These are the ghosts that broke my heart". (I really wanted to make a ghost story, but I could not think of a neat ending at-all. It is really silly and frustrating!).

I tried to exorcise my bedroom – it is really haunted. All the ghosts are really noisy and bumpy, and also they move all my books when I am not looking. But I felt really guilty and horrid – all the ghosts were really lost and lonely...

---

"If 'Ziners were Cats".

- Vigilante Maelstrom - Cheshire Cat (he disappears, leaving nothing but smiles...and faint smells of Moggilicious cat food).
- Princess Psycho - Evil the Cat.
- WLW - Ren ("Cedric, you idiot!").

---

"If 'Ziners were Pokemon".

- Jumbo Beam - Snorlax (he makes everyone really sleepy).
- Daddypoos, Wigan - Ditto, Pallet Town (Peter Chu).
- The Brigadier - Mew.

By Professor Oak's Research Students.

---

"Really Painful Foods".

- Potato Wedgies.
- Fruit Punch.

---

"Dooplegangland". (I really wanted to make a letter about someone stelaing my identity - Barry and Colin and I tried to make a second letter about somene pretending to be me, but it was lots too difficult). :-[

Please help me! I am really worried someone is trying to steal my identity. I am really worried he will replace me. It is really scary!
I am really worried he will hug all my friends and eat all my muffins and forget to feed my cat.
I am not sure howcome anyone wants to be me. It is pretty boring. It is mostly scatty panic attacks and romantic hopes, and also poems and ghost hunting too. It is really silly!

I really want to make a Sprinkles letter about Schrodinger's Cat, but it is really difficult.

Sprinkles the Cat.

What's that, Sprinkles?

You were practicing hypnotism inthe mirror?

You hypnotised yourself? You think you are a yummy fish now?
