# WORLD ENDS TODAY (Chris Hall). That's right folks, according to Criswell
(of Plan 9 from Outer Space fame) the world ends on the 18th August 1999.
Although judging by some of his other predictions I don't think we have
all that much to worry about, for instance I don't remember all the women
of St. Louis going bald between February and May 1983. The whole lot can
be found at: http://www.planetjoe.com/criswell/index.htm
: What day does your world end? Are you ready? Where am I going and why am I
in this handbasket? Did the St. Louis gals successfully hide their baldness?

# Court upholds refusal to put Ten Commandments on fence. LOS ANGELES (AP)
A California state appeals court has upheld a school district's refusal
to display the Ten Commandments on a ball-field fence. {JHWH} responded
with a plague of fleas. http://cnn.com/US/9908/18/religion.outfield.ap/
: Should Gitas, Sutras, Koran, Principia Discordia be posted on ball-field
fences? Have you posted any religious texts at athletic events? Were the
athletes/audiences distracted? Have you tried beaming mind-control rays in?

# Imaging satellites go mainstream. (ENN) Computer software is on track to
move satellite-imaging systems from the realm of military applications to
everyday farmers, city engineers, real estate developers and school bus
drivers. A Purdue engineering professor has developed a computer number-
crunching program to process the imaging data to make it applicable to
those with little technical expertise. Earth monitoring for dummies - see
http://cnn.com/NATURE/9908/16/imaging.enn/index.html
: Are you currently under satellite surveillance? Are morons monitoring you?
Are you monitoring morons? Are sat.pix useful in voodoo? Can you hex a map?

hood development in the progress of Alzheimer's disease. Goo goo g'joob:

@ POKEMON: "Sacrifice A White Creature." The Dangers of Role-Playing Games:
How Pokemon and Magic Cards Affect the Minds and Values of Children. Who
are the strange little critters from Japan that've suddenly become global
super-stars? Most kids know the answer well: They're called Pokemon (short
for POCKEt MONster and pronounced Pokeymon), and they have stirred up some
mixed reactions. http://www.crossroad.to/text/articles/pokemon5-99.html
: Do you use videogames, role-playing games [RPGs], magic cards, action fig-
ures, TV/Net events, drugs to program kids? What's your favorite mindcontrol
technique? Are mind-programming icons cheaper, more effective than rays???

"Why do nuts women always have cats? Why not dogs, dogs who are just as
excited to see you after you drive up to the corner to get milk as they
were when they first met you, instead of cats, who, as Pat always said,
regarded people as warm-blooded furniture? To keep her eyes to herself,
Beth stared down at Loreta's ample thigh in its armor of polyester, a
blue that did not exist in nature. Why did nuts women aged about sixty-
five who kept cats also wear stretch pants? With flowered blouses that
looked chosen carefully for their potential to make the wearer look like
ten miles of bad road under a tablecloth? Because something like these
clothes had looked good on them when they were young? Because everything
else looked worse? As she let her glance slide upward to Loretta's tight-
ly furled perm, like a head of late-spring buds, she heard the woman ask
Candy, "So, do you want me to do a trance? Or just give you some impres-
sions?" --Jacquelyn Mitchard * http://www.bulwer-lytton.com/sticks.htm#5
