SAY IT AIN'T SO, JIM. By Prime Anarchist. 11-01-01. You know what really sucks? Jim Palmer, yeah Mr. Late Great. He no longer looks like the athlete he was/is. He looks like the used car dealer from Hell. Yes, I swear. Allah as my witness. Yawveh strike me dead, I saw him hawking 35th-mortgage homeowner loan-refinancings during station ID on the Rosie O'Donnell show. You know, if you're in debt up to your teeth sell us your nuts, we'll keep all your eggs in OUR basket. Yeah, Jim Palmer for the Money Tree Store. I think I'll call him Cerberus, the Barking Man with Three Toupees. /\ / \ / \ - - / wlcm \ / \ / \ - 2 - / a \ \ t / \ i / \ \ \ actvst \ \ tms nc. \ \---------- Activist Times, Inc. issue 101.

Farrell wanted to do something special in the group's honor. So, in May of that year, Farrel and a few others - agents Marc Geiger and Don Muller, Jane's Addiction's co-manager Ted Gardner, and Stuart Ross - began planning for the tour, adding seven bands, food, local crafts, art displays - an extravaganza unlike any ever attempted before. They pulled it off... and the rest, as they say, is history. The band played twenty-eight shows that year, and the whole thing was a resounding success. In fact the first three years it was the only major festival listed in ALL billboard "genres" that turned a profit. Spin Magazine called L- "One of the most innovative and successful concert tours of the decade." Rolling Stone dubbed it the "Tour of the Decade." Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers admitted it was "The most fun tour I've ever been on." It all adds up to the fact that the L- Festival is acknowledged as THE ANNUAL ALTERNATIVE CULTURE EVENT. This is a long overdue rhetorical prime anarchist question: THAN WHY IS IT SO COMMERCIAL NOW??? /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Prime Anarchist world newz 2nite \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ SEPARATISTS SAY CONVICTIONS WON'T END THEIR QUEST FOR THE WORLD'S LARGEST HAMBURGER. by Eduardo "Lacto-Ovo" Montes. Special to PAWN. Alpine, TEX. - Members of the green separatist Republic of Texas movement don't expect their dream of a giant beef-burger to suffer since two of their leaders were found guilty of organized-crime charges. They maintain that they've never stopped meeting and working sausage grinders and slaughterhouses day and nite in 4 states, since their fearless leader, Richard "shoot-em-up-eat-em-up-yum" McLaren, was arrested after an armed standoff against 285 longhorn steers and 14 brahma bulls. "We're going to kick Whitecastle NewYork's ass," said Shoot-em of the world's second largest beefburger's founding spot and the home of the first annual summer festival devoted entirely to hamburger. "And then we're coming after YOU, Wisconsin." This Montes/McLaren interview took place over free 72 oz steaks in Amarillo Texas Tuesday. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- KEIKO HAVING TONSILS REMOVED Can a killer whale say ahhhh??? Keiko of "Free Willy" fame will be poked and prodded by the same marine experts in Newport Ore., what did Reagan's brain surgery in 1983. After the notorious ocean-dwelling nocturnal creature loses his tonsils he'll be force-fed ice-cream, jello, Kraft mac-n-cheese (tm) and a liquified substance known as spammaise (tm) made from ground up chuck, fish, horse tonsils, sawdust (tm), watermelon rhinds and egg-whites in an effort to get rid of his tapeworms at the same time, so as to save US taxpayers a record $1.35 (that's one dollar, and thirty-five cents.) --- --- --- --- TOO MANY POLICE DEPARTMENTS HAVE STOCKED UP ON WHITE PHOSPHORUS GRENADES Sacramento, CALIF - White Phosphorus has bolstered the arsenals of police in 23 states as part of a massive flow of surplus military gear. Now one of the nation's biggest police departments, Los Angeles says it was a big mistake and it's sending its grenades back to the military. More than 6,400 surplus grenades - which are by the way, too heavy to throw far enough so the patrolperson doesn't risk getting hot burning white speckles on his or her uniform - went to law enforcement agencies between Oct. 1, 1996 and Sept. 30, 1997 according to the Federal Defense Logistics Agency in Washington. Some question whether military weapons, particular White Phosphorus, uranium tipped 100mm howitzer shells, bazukkas, 50 cal. machine guns with tumbler rounds and gold plated silver Chinese throwing stars have any place in civilian law enforcement. "We can imagine no circumstances whatsoever where it would be appropriate for a local police agency to put an item like the white phosphorus grenade on the end of a police officer," said J. Crew, an ACLU attorney. The LAPD had added 42 of these grenades over recent years, but is giving them all back this week. "The main reason we're sending them back," said Cmdr Rick Dinse, "because (sic) the department has no use for them." Dinse, a Harvard graduate himself; also noted that more than half his patrolpersons went to public schools and he was very concerned about where on the body these grenades would be attached. "Right there up high on the left breast," said Dinse, "hangin' next to the tear gas." ===+===+===+===+=== Wallingford, CONN. (this one's for real) A parent complained to Parker Farms School officials last month for using a dictionary which contains the word "fuck." School officials reviewed the Merriam-Webster dictionary and replaced them with more "appropriate" dictionaries for library and classroom use. nd nw: ///:::///:::\\\:::\\\ Phillips Magnavox for ///WEB-TV!!!///:::/// You pay just $199.99!! Yeah, plus 19.98 shipping and handling. And don't forget 19.99 a month. Oh, and $100 if you want a keyboard to type on. But don't worry, if you get 6 months right up front (that's $120!!!) MagnaPhil will give you a hundred dollar rebate. But don't think about all that, you can just pro-rate all that just by calling our 1-900 # and pay 58$ a month for the next year or two.

A half hour of televangelo-marketing so powerful (Kn u sy mega-info-tainment-mercial???) no one should be able to leave their television if even to relieve themselves. My opinion? The last TV thing more powerful than this invasion of your living room was HG Wells' fault. That's right War of the Web-TV. War of the Worlds. Wow. Sears is facing bankruptcy court just like Coke and Citibank. And guess how they're a-gon' bail the selves out? "Do you sell WebTV by Magnapox," I asked the guy on the other end at Sears technology department. "Yeah we sur'nuff do. Got people lookin' at it right now." Can you say blow out?
