A zine with nothing but warm and fuzzy stories, sweetness levels so high it carries a warning label for diabetics. No stories allowed if at least one character doesn't give a long, impassioned speach about love, flowers, or puppies. (Imagining some people's reactions to such stories) You know, maybe there _is_ a connection between sadism and writing stories like this. Oh, well, it would sell well - if only among the people who felt a need to burn it :-) Ellynne (Who is _not_ planning such a zine) ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

I would like to state herein my personal conviction that the very best confection ever produced in modern America has never equalled the very worst confection ever produced in the U.K. For one thing, when sugar became too expensive for food manufacturers, most of them substituted high fructose corn syrup in almost everything, which had the dual honor of making all our food taste like crap and making an enormous amount of unsuspecting Americans allergic to corn products. It's so pathetic that when Annie and I discovered they were selling Picadelli biscuits on a back shelf of the local Circle K convenience stores, we bought up almost every package to hoard in the cupboard. Just...sad.
