1. In a dark, dark town was a dark, dark house. In a dark, dark house was a dark, dark room. In the dark, dark room was a dark, dark plagiarism allegation. Fiddlesticks.
Vigilante Maelstrom.Plagiarism? On the Zine? Never!---
DARON'S THE DOG'S. Little Daron Hendle got a dog for his 8th birthday. Daron was a nice boy, but he was often a bit selfish. This puppy didn't like this, so every time Daron was selfish it would bite off one of his fingers.
Daron is now 15 and incapable of certain pastimes his peers get up to.
The moral of the story is: don't get a dog.
Vigilante Maelstrom. Anteaters. That's what Daron's after. They have no teeth, you know. -----

Challenge Vingt-et-un. So, I was stood in a bar, minding my own business and munching on occasional bar snacks; when this REALLY old bald guy starts eyeing me up. He must have been 50. But I was alone; so I went up to him, gave him what for and shoved KP's salted goodness right where it's uncomfortable. If I ever get those peanuts back, he's in for a fright!
Elden Ray. You wouldn't want them anyway, would you? -----
3.
BAG IT UP. My friend (and one time 'ziner Rude Boy) believes man bags are masculine. He believes he is not camp or gay, but that the bag adds a mystical presence.
He says when he was young he watched a show called Kung Fu. David Carradine carried a man bag with a flute in it, and he is a black belt. So now Rude Boy thinks bags are hard.
I just tell him: Shut up and put your make up on.
Squashed Strawberry, Hector's House. So long as the bag matches his make-up case, he's fine.-----
4.
SPOOKY STORY. Once upon an empty evening, an eager owl opens an eerie envelope. All around, icicles of imagination exaggerate its apprehensions. Its anxious, ever anxious, expectations unfold across ages.
Eventually, an owl, alone and afraid, opens its eerie envelope. Inside...it's an invitation!
The Soul Cake Duck.Fantastic introduction. Shame about the rest of the story... -----
5.
Ponderings.Hula Hoops are now lower in sodium it seems. I refuse to believe in the existence of sodium, and have always done so, thus this attempt to attract me into eating those baked delights has failed miserably. I still eat them though. How something can be both so edible and so round is not to be ignored.
Mancomb Seepgood. Try Wheat Crunchies - three times the roundess and Worcester Sauce flavour to boot. Please vote!
