ISSUE No. 1 Release date: 11.09.1995 INDEX INDEX QUIT PREVIOUS NEXT QUIT PREVIOUS NEXT QUIT Dear friends! Welcome to our first issue of CHARISMA. Some of you surely think that there are enough diskmags available in scene and that you don't need any more. Well, we wanted to bring something different to you. CHARISMA is no pure scene mag. We want to build up a kind of "funmag"instead. How do we define "funmag"? Let me tell you at first why we do not want this mag to be only a scene mag. First of all, I am just tired about the old stories. I've read a hundred times stories called "My life as swapper". In many scene mags you can read the same: about the quarrel between Mr. King and Steffen, for example. And this is annoying. We don' t have something against scene articles. We will publish them too, of course. But they need to be either actual or they must consist of a new idea. We want CHARISMA to be published every two weeks. So we depend on fast and actual support. News older than a month are not interesting any longer. So, our mag will not only report scene topics, but also other things which have nothing to do with scene. You write- we publish!! We are open for any opinion or topic. This does not mean that every article that we bring is the opinion of the editors! But I think there is still a need for a real open forum for anybody, not only for the well- known or the big bosses. The idea of making another mag is in my mind since the good old PULSE time. Maybe someone still remembers their plans to bring a mag called DEAD END? But I am sure I did not imagine it to be so much work. I must admit that I was a little bit lazy and that some things could surely be improved. Well, I´m open for any kind of criticism, as this brings a better standard to the mag. We are having a chart board, too, of course, but not the normal charts. We got the CC, the crazy charts, and we hope you like the idea not to put the usual boring votes but something more individual instead! I hope you have a lot of ideas in your mind. When you flip trough the pages of CHARISMA, you will see what we mean. One more word about bugs:It may happen that there are anyone, cause we did not test the code completely. But so far it should work. I've got to thank everybody who helped to make CHARISMA ready for market, especially our coder, PENTAGON who seems to live on air and who needs maybe four hours of sleep a day? Thanx once again, mate! Our first issue is a little bit small, because only few people supported us. But we hope this will change. Of course you get a free copy of the latest issue of CHARISMA for your support. More about that in the other articles.

THE LANGUAGE WE SPEAK Dear readers and supporters! Please note that we publish just things that are written in English. This concerns also advertisements and messages. You ask why? Well, we believe noone should have any secrets and these things should be open for any reader to read. Additionally, English is the official scene language, and so we support it. I think this will not make you any harm, because everyone in scene has to know English and in Europe you have ususally English lessons at school. So please care for this! Thank you very much, yours, Sunny/ACT INEQUALITY IN SCENE by Sunny/ACT This is a topic that I really have been thinking about a long time. I believe everyone is aware of this problem, and many people push this development. But I don´t think that´s right! At first, there are some groups which have to be mentioned: 1.The girls Yes, I know, I am one myself, but that´s not the only reason why I put this group forward. We are still a little minority, and many scene members discriminate against us. Either they are of the opi nion that girls should have nothing to do with computers or they believe we are little chicks who need a lot of help to find at least our way through the workbench. I am sure not everybody is of this opinion, but there are some people who show this attitude quite open. 2.Swappers with few contacts If you are a swapper and you have just about 10 to 20 contacts, you will nearly find no new contacts, because people don´t want to swap with somebody who gets not everyday a new product. But why? I think swapping should be some fun and not only the counting of contacts and actuality of products. If someone writes nice, long let ters and shows a real effort to do good swapping work, I prefer it a hundred times from a so-called elite swapper who sends me a letter of 5 words and is not a little bit interested in more than products. 3.Foreigners of certain countries I have met some scene members for example who do not want to swap with Polish swappers because they say the post is too bad. Or some do not write to Spanish and American adresses because they say there are just little amiga scene members and it takes too long. Once again I must say that I wish people to look behind the computer and put an eye on the individuals. I think at first you should look at the person and then on it´s sending!! 4.People of the own country Yes, this development must be clearly seen, especially in Germany!! Many swappers have this "Foreigners prefered" under their adver- tisements. For what? There are many advantages in swapping with home country swappers. You can write in your own language. You save some money. And you have some friends you can visit or meet at the next party. 5.People who want no faking Many swappers refuse to write to such people because they believe it is too expensive. But maybe these are great contacts, but they had some trouble with the post. You can be forced by post to name your contacts who fake!! To prevent that, some people abolish faking of stamps. Well, if you just have one or two contacts of that kind, you won´t impoverish either! 6.People with no official adress Some people dislike writing to poste restante, PLK and P.O. boxes, because they are afraid of disk stealers. Well, if someone contacts you for swapping and wants you to answer for poste restante, he is surely no disk stealer. This is once again a thing which happened to me myself. I wrote about 40 contact letters to people,but just 10 answered. Well, the stamps and the disks are lost. Now you can ask which one is the diskstealer.... People who have no official adress have often a reason for it. May be they had trouble with the post or police and want to secure somehow a certain way of anonymousity. Maybe they have no own flat and no own postbox. Maybe they work in the one town and can go home only at weekends, so they get their letters directly to post. In my case, my parents were the reason for me to go poste restante. They didn´t like my swapping activities. Finally,what to say? I wished this would change. Well, try it once, try it twice. You might be lucky and find a new and reliable contact. If not, be sure that not everybody is like that. And swapping should be somehow fun and a hobby- don´t take it too serious!! And remember: you were all beginners some time ago! SCENE ON TV ??? by Sting/Abyss What would you think about an own TV station only for our scene. It sounds a bit weird, but nothing is impossible these days. The scene is getting more and more commercial, so is it so absurd to talk about an own TV station? This is just an idea, but think about the possibilities. The Party VII is arranged once again in Denmark. An own TV team will arrive to report live from the party place. With Intervies, party oppinions and many things more. Two times a day there will arrive the news of the day. So you can hear every day what happens in the scene. When and where the next party will be held. Who joined which group or other interesting things. Series like The Greatest Hits will run. The best old Demos or let`s better say classicer will be shown. After midnight 6 hours Demos non stop. The best 10 demos will be shown which were voted in the Eurocharts or the Charts. Musicians can compete live in a show and the public outside can vote by just dialing the number of the tune per phone. You see that there are many possibilities for this fiction. It would be very cool when there would be an own TV station for us. But I think it will be just a dream. But dreams can come true. Or how was it, Fairlight ? That was just a step into the future, we will see what will happen with the scene in the next years. So just stay right were you are and wait... QUIT MAG: Click on the QUIT button in the main menu. by Sunny/ACT Some of you may still have the big busts of the last summer in their mind. Many illegal German Mailboxes were busted, and many sysops never got happy again. They still have a lot of money to pay for one silly mistake. Everyone knows that this would have been impossible without the help of an insider. Noone from outside could so easily gain access to a illegal box, as this is a real threat for sysops. Well, I know one who would be silly enough.....What I want to say is, that there must have been someone who loves money more than friendship. You always hear stories about police informers. For everybody to know: the police does not pay a cent for this information, so these people are no real police informers. They inform the "private" investigators, such as Grafenreuth in Germany. They get money from him, and he gets money from the software firms. He will inform the police to verify that all evidence is save before he wants to have a lot of money. In the most cases you never find out who it was. I know a nice guy who was busted one year ago. He must pay now 4500 $ for the software and his lawyer. Not a cheap thing! He still doesn´t know when he was really busted, and he still doesn´t have his computer back. He wants to look who phoned just some days before. Maybe he will find it out, but infor mers are often well hidden. There we are at the point: how can I be sure that I am not trusting the wrong people ? I am sure that out of thousand there might be one black sheep who does not care about friendship. For normal swappers it is easy: send nothing illegal to something you doesn´t know. If he asks for games let him send first. Well, there were some stories about stamp faking and informing the post. I do not think that anyone has interests to do this, as I know only a few swappers who do not fake. So you could accuse them easily, too. Sysops have a harder job: Numbers are given among friends who should nor mally have no access to it. References can be faked. Okay, Systempass- words are a little bit securer, but if someone gets access to a tarned illegal box and sees that he can do nothing except of paging the sysop, he can be sure it is illegal. I´ve hit a point where I can only say: you can never verify your trust completely. You must trust your contacts, and as you know, trusting is not knowing. The scene works on a base of friendship, and if there are more and more people who break this basic rule the scene will break down. So I wish you a happy day without any problems and without a visit by some police men. ACT-A fairy tale by Sunny/ ACT Once upon a time there was a group called ORION. It was a nice group with a lot of friendship and harmony. Actually that was the reason that the members where all a little bit lazy. They had from time to time a meeting, but nothing happened. But they where happy until this bad day. A bad letter arrived at the leader´s home that the leaders of the WHQ had changed and an evil guy had now the power in his hands. This evil guy kicked the hole German devision because he did not like their faces. Actually he was mad that a swapper called Sunny was very delayed, but he did not even ask for reasons, as evil guys never do. He did not care about that she had been in hospital and that her grandma nearly died. Everyone was sad, but then they decided to bring up a new group called Primus. But unfortunately a lot of members left for Avantgarde and so the leader decided to leave the scene and concentrated on summer life. So the leader enjoyed his life as much as he could until he heard that Avantgarde was dead. He was really in the mood to rejoin the scene because he had found out that life was a little bit senseless without his Amiga. And so he phoned the members of the old Orion and then Avantgarde group and asked them if they were interested in forming a new group called ACT. Most of them were very enthusiastic, and just two weeks later their first product was released. Due to the workaholic coder some other products followed right at hand, and so they started to work it out. They got some very nice and fine members and two boards, and everyone is happy. Though there is a lot of friendship and noone is forced to work if he has got good reasons, everyone does his part of the work he can do, and that´s why they are so fast in releasing. If you are in the mood to join a nice and fresh crew because you want to do something useful, contact their leader, Monsun. And in my opinion, this is the best group I´ve ever been in ! And if their keen coder will never go to America again, where he felt very lonely without his Amiga, they will live forever! SWAPPERS VERSUS MODEMTRADERS ? by Sunny/ACT Most of the groups have both job categories, so called swappers or mailtraders, and modemtraders. Somehow a little war seems to break out between those two groups. Well, where are the advantages and disadvantages in both? Let us first take a look at the swapping scene.The disadvantages are clear: the post is not very fast, so sendings can take up to a week, and the products are no longer fresh. Beside, you depend on your contacts which must send you fresh stuff so you can do your job properly. The advantages are, on the other side: It is not too expensive, as most swappers fake, and you have a lot of friends all around the globe. So, and now let´s have a clear look at the modemtraders. Most traders I know have unbelievable high phone bills because cards are not as easy to get as it used to be. Another point is that you have to pay both for sending and receiving new stuff. You normally mainly now the sysops, but nobody else. On the other hand, your things arrive the fastest way they can and new stuff is fastly spreaded. There are many "double traders" appearing. They normally trade by post, but if they are out of products, they take their modem and look for it, so they can keep their business running. I thing this is the best way to work, as you have most advantages of the two ways of trading. But it is also dangerous. Guess you send someone the products you got from the net, and he is on the net,too. So this could end in a circle, where you always have to go to net to receive your new stuff. And then...welcome to the pure modemtrading fun!! I do not guess that modemtraders will substitute the swappers entirely. But I think that it is just a question of time until most of the scene activities only appear in net. I clearly prefer the personal contact with my mates, and the letters I receive or send. The number of swappers is surely declining, and only the very brave will stay at last. But for modem trading, you need some more money: you need a modem, a phoneline which is not usual for many parents, and money for the bills. At first you will not imagine how expensive phoning is ! Well, I hope you will stay what you are, no matter what you are. CU ! "KEEP ON MOVIN`" by Sting/Abyss Maybe everyone have heard this slogan... Do you know: KEEP ON MOVIN` ! Yes, it is the slogan of your loved swapper Sting. Why and what`s the meaning of it ??? I will tell you... I thought to have a slogan as a swapper would be nice. Why should only groups use slogans... As a swapper I know many people and so there is the chance that the people know the swapper only if they hear the slogan. Also other swappers started to use slogans after I have drive you mad, hehehe... And it exactly happend what I have expected... The people just know me if they only hear... Keep on Movin ! But there is also a deeper message in this slogan. I want to show the people how dark the life can be, how hard it is maybe to continue living. Your girlfriend left you after many years, you are jobless, you are not longer motivated to continue the scene. Sometimes you asked yourself: "What`s the meaning or sense of life ?". And Sting says you. Just Keep on Movin`... Never give up, the life will continue.. There will ever be a way out... That`s the deeper message behind the slogan of me... So it is not only a slogan it`s more a message for me and for you to never give up and always continue trying your best. But this slogan is much more... As some of you know I am a Raver and love the tekkno scene. Then I am always Movin` when I am dancing I can`t stand still and so I must Keep on Movin` ! People outhere got my message... There is also a module available that is also called Keep on Movin` - what else ? Composed by myself. Just look in the advert section to get my addy if you want a copy from the slogan and the message of the year 1994 and 1995. What should I say more... After another article from our mad Sting of Abyss Posse... I wish you a good day and: Keep on Movin` Yours Sting/Abyss SWAPPING HOLIDAYS by Sunny/ACT Well, I want to tell you a little story: Act was founded somewhen in February, and we released our first production, the ACTRO. I decided to start my business as a swapper again, and so I contacted about 30 people or so. I waited for weeks, and waited, and waited.... Then I was really convinced that half of the scene consists of damn disk- stealers. And now? I´ve been running miles to the post office for nothing, and suddenly letters arrive. What has happened? It seems that there were a lot of swappers on holiday, such as Darren/ Scoopex, Speddy/Purple Haze or Heinz/Saturne, just to name some. In figures it means that 10 percent of the letters arrived in time, 80 came now, more than late, and 10 are not back yet. Seems I have something missed,hm? Or what was the reason for the swappers to delay some months, Speedy even a year? Seems that some people were fed up with business. I can really under- stand them. There are days when you come home, you find five letters on your desk, and you see you still got five to answer from yesterday, and you realize that ther is no time for the things you used to do before you started swapping. Delaying in the summertime is useful, as there is less stuff to send, and you are more motivated to do something outdoors, than to stick in front of your screen and type hundreds of letters. I am delaying sometimes, too, due to my work on this, but I try to be as fast as possible. Well, maybe I have a lot more time than some "double- working" swappers. I mean, I´m still a pupil, which gives my a lot of free time that must be spent. I was just really surprised how many swappers decided to do the same at the same time. Unbelievable!! But maybe it is also a question of the time you´ve already spent in the scene. I mean, a newcomer with one year exper ience might not be as much annoyed as an old elite guy who is doing his business for three or more years. The older you get, the faster you rea lize that you´ve something missed, I guess. And girls, cars or career get some higher status! I am glad that those guys were just on holidays instead of giving up all the crap! And I really fear that the older generation of scene members will decide to do this very soon! Then the younger ones have to take over more important functions. Well, I guess that´s the law of work, some retire and others will start their career! I hope that not too many of you are fed up , so I hope I will hear something from you in future! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yøp_____/\______________/\_______/\______/\ /~¯ \\ __ _/~¯ / \\ ___ //~¯___ //\ / · // \ ¬\___ //___ ¬\/\___ ¬\/\/ /____/___/______ //______/________/_______/\ \____\___\______\/\______\________\_______\/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\/~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ..ooO The Deepest Experience Ooo.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ABYSS: - Sting left Bonzai Bros. and joined ACT: Memberlist (30.08.95) Monsun..................Organize, GFX Pentagon................Code Sunny...................Editor, Swap Gold Dragon.............Main Swap Mr. Hyde................Sysop Rebel...................Sysop Mr. Do..................Trader Yoshi...................Sfx Dr. Link................Gfx Mortimer................Gfx Catwoman................Gfx Roban...................Gfx (...continuing ACT) - TSi left the scene! - Wild Thing, Leprechaum and BeLa got kicked because of lazyness! - Terrorist left ACT! - Roban joined as graphician. - Enzyme left for Neo. - The first issue of Charisma is released!!!

He must pay now 4500 $ for the software and THE CHEAT OF THE SUMMER: ENERGY DRINKS by Sunny/ACT You´re burn out, tired and you want to go out tonight? So what must you do then? I´m sure most will take an energy drink! The press has done it´s best, and commercials did the rest to push the enery drink wave across Europe.Originally invented in Japan and produced there since ten years,drinks like Red Bull and Flying horse came to Aus tria.They were not allowed in Germany because of the ingrediences. Snow boarders took it from Austria over the borders, though it was really for bidden!People found with it had to pay a hard fine, because Red Bull fell under the narcotica and drug law. Unbelievable, isn´t it? Well, since last summer, due to the European laws, we can buy those drinks in any supermarket. Anyway, they are damn expensive, from 1.50 DM to 3DM (aprox. 1$-2$)for a little can. Some taste like melted gummibears, others have a more refreshing taste. I know about six or seven different firms thatproduce them. According to a local newspaper there are over 50 diffe rent drinks available. But since this summer the oh-so pushing and healthy drinks got some bad marks. Siencemen found out that these drinks have the same effect as a cup of coffee, which is much cheaper. Additionally, the TAURIN, a hormon from bulls (That´s why it´s called Red Bull) has no effect without working. I mean, if you sit in front of your computer, you´re just cheating yourself, because you will gain nothing by drinking this shit, except that you spend your money for some water with taste!! Yes, okay, coke is nothing else than water with taste,too, but you´ve got the point? If you want to stay up, you better buy some coffein tablets instead of spending 15 $ on these drinks!It´s just a good deal for gas station owner and supermarket chains, but surely not for you. PIERCING-A NEW KIND OF EXPRESSION? by Sunny/ACT Surely all of you know about the "Punk Generation" in the late 70´s and 80´s. Wild looking people with coloured hair, bad clothes and some times rings in their noses or their eyebrows. This was a shocking of the worst kind- grandmas got heart attacks because of this, and children were tols to be aware of people of that kind. And now? Look in favourite magazines, at top payed models- there it is! Most times a little ring in the nose, sometimes on the tongue or somewhere else where you never ever would think of ! Actually you can pierce quite every part of your body. Some people find it very strange, some say it is something you must be courageous to do. Well, I am pierced myself. YES!! So I am outed now, and I want to explain you my and the reasons of many of my friends. At first, piercing was something that came to us from the bigger cities, like Munich, Berlin or Hamburg. Some people brought their holes from these towns, because in the province nobody wanted to take the risk of making it. Well, you can get bad infections at your hole if you are not carefull enough. Even some stories about affected nerves went around and that you can get paralized if you are getting a nose piercing. But that are lies, there are no real important nerves there. I know some people who were crazy enough to do it themselves with needles or nails. Some time later, the ear, nose and throat specialist started to do it, but also with nee- dles. And now there are some studios that make it with pressure air. One day, I mentioned piercing while lunch, and told my parents just as a joke that I wanted to get pierced myself. The reaction of my father was that he said if I was doing that, I could pack my things and go. He just forbid me to do it. Well, I was nearly 18 years old, old enough to decide how I wanted to look! And so I got pierced the next weekend in a jewelery in Konstanz which offered this service since some days. I must admit I was really frightened about it, but a friend of mine had her hole also by the "holing pistol", that kind of a pistol you get your ear holes with, and she could guarantee me it wouldn´t hurt. For me it was a means to show my parents my independency and to shock them a little. And it was a form to be different to other people,because I was the first one at school who was pierced. Nowadays, we have over 20 people at school who are pierced, some two or more times. I am not sure wether I will wear my nosering for the rest of my life- there might be troubles about a job after school, and I am sure my opinion about life will change. It is just that society has made also a change- shocking is fashionable, the stranger and more bizarre something is, the more applause will it gain. And that was certainly not my aim! PS: I have heard about a new trend called branding.You get a brand mark like calves get when they are young. I am sure I will not try it-I know what ache burnings can cause!! SUNNY´S GUIDE FOR SUCESSFULL LIVING TODAY: HOW TO CHEAT IN EXMANS PROPERLY by Sunny/ACT I am sure you all have experienced this situation at least once: The day you have an exam you feel not so well prepared because you have had a very important party, and now you find out that you´ve for- gotten about half the things you should know. So what to do? There are some good way of cheating. I´ve tried all of the ones that I meantion here, and anyone worked, but I do not know what you´re tea- chers are like. so you must decide yourself if you want to risk it. No guarantee!! The best way to cheat is to hide your book or your papers in the toilet. This will not work in important exams like the final exam, as teachers often examine the toilets before this, and then you´re in deep trouble! Another problem are other pupils that may take it away. So you better leave a note for others. and you better do not tell everybody, as a run on the toilet is very suspicious to teachers!!But if you leave to go to the toilet, do not spend too much time there!! Another way is to prepare stickers that you put on your shirt or on your trousers. This is a little bit dangerous if your teacher walks around. Well, you write the formulas or stuff like that on stickers, and you put them on the inside (!) bottom of an oversized shirt. Now you can easily pull the shirt around and you have the things in front of your eyes. For real lazy teachers try this: You have surely some primus in class, who might be faster than all of you. Well, beg at him to write down his solutions to free paper with a pencil, but very thin. When he has prepared the paper, you ask him for a sheet of paper. He can give you the solutions on his sheet so that the teacher would not recognize it! Not working when you have paper from your teacher or an exercise book. Hm, when you use own paper you can vary this cheat: write down everything in a short form on your paper, also thin with a pencil. So you can find the things you need for the questions and write them down on another free sheet of paper. Well working is team work, but do not risk it under a sharp- eyed teacher who looks around in class very carefully.Make notes or questions on a paper and hold it up or write very big when the teacher doesn´t look. So you can communicate. But do not forget to erase everything before re- turning the exam! Well, I do not finish any exam without a cheat as "insurance". You can never know everything. But the teachers at my school are very lazy and seem not to care at all, so you try it on own risk! GOOD LUCK!! THE FUN ON FEAR by Sunny/ACT Our society is strange. In the recent years, more and more horror films and horror books were sold, and the amount of money spent on these things is still rising. But where comes this fun on fear from ? I mean ,it is not just the horror branche that benefits from this, just think about the extreme sports like bungee jumping. People want to spend money on having fear, they are keen on being frightened. If you take a look at it from the evolutionary side, you might recognize that the modern homo sapiens sapiens has no real challenge. There is no hunt for example, and there is no need for thrill to survive. Natural enemies are killed with one finger by using weapons. Some of you might say that there´s still competition in business, for expamle, or the hunt for skirts. But that is not comperable to the natural, environmental competition. And because of this man creates artificial thrill, danger and fear. We need adrenalin as much as bread,and everyone has his own way how to get his endogenous drug. Here we are on biological terrain, which gives us another point of view on it. The consumption of drugs, legal and illegal, has certainly grown. Adrenalin is a drug that our body makes in situation of big stress. Your heart gets faster, your pulse, too, your breath advances and you get enormous power out of it.Many people are somehow addicted to this. This are, for example, workaholics, or real extreme sportives, which practice for example bungee jumping twice or more a week. After some time your body gets used to this situation, and the adrenalin push is not so big any longer. Then you need more thrill and more dangerous situations: You jump from higher houses and deeper canyons. And now we go over to the psychological view of things. People do this because they are happy that they get over their fear. You cannot say that you would have no fear if you jump 50 meters deep. We are pride of us that we can control this situation, and for this we may try it once again. Watching horror films with your friends is another thing. Every one must prove that he is brave enough to watch the bloodiest films. This is the well-known group pressure under which a lot of kids suffer when they are in such situations. On the one hand they are not keen on seeing the film, on the other hand they would be judged scary if they did not watch. A dilemma you an hardly get out of. Or, and that is another thing, you only define yourself by the things you do. For example, you only see that you are a good bungee jumper and that your girlfriend is impressed by this, and you cannot imagine something else to be so impressive. And so you practice this just for feeling satisified and selfconvident. I am sure that this wave will pass faster than we all imagine. I do not know what will come next : maybe the fun on hurt? How to get free money adapted by Sunny/ACT This article is taken from the skateboarder magazine "BIG BROTHER". I found it very useful and so I decided to give it to you. Hope you like it, too! "1995. Only a few months into the year and already my financial status is in jeopardy. Car insurance payments and long distance phone bills eat up what little money I have as if it were sugar coated. Well, desperate times call for desperate measures. Luckily, free easy money is as close as your local supermarket. So, for those of you in the same predicament as I am, follow my simple plan and you'll soon have pocket money for CDs, fast food and movie rentals. 1.Find a receipt from the supermarket you'll be visiting. Receipts can usually be found on the ground right outside of the supermarket doors. If you can't find one there, or don't feel like looking, use the receipt mom brings home from the market when she's done shopping. Look over the receipt. Make mental note of the most expensive items (like meat,personal products,whatever). 2.Go to the supermarket and get these items from the shelves. Be casual as this is a crucial part of the plan. Most time people won't be pay ing attention to you anyway. Don't be greedy, if you get too many things, it might draw some suspicion. It's best to get a few things that you can easily carry. (You better don't do that in big stores where there is a supermarket included. They have often personal that is looking for thie ves-the ed.) 3.Bring the receipt and your collected items to the courtesy booth and return them. You can make up excuses like "My mom got the wrong brand" or "My mom got the wrong size". Don't be rude, or the person working might give you a hard time. You hand over the products you got off the shelves, and they hand you over the money. If they want you to fill something out for their records, just fill in bogus information. It's that easy! Remember to be polite. People seem to like you better when you say "Thank you" even if you're ripping them off." Sound easy,doesn't it! I never tried it out because the mother of my boyfriend works in the supermarket which is the biggest. Be aware of cameras and detectives! This article is from an american magazine, and I can imagine it might work over there. When a supermarket is crowded, you might have better chances. So,good luck!! And tell me if it worked. WELCOME TO REALITY by Sunny/ACT Let´s take a short look in the future, that high tech specialists want to realize in just a few years.Can you imagine meeting your friends in a cafe in New York, while you sit at home, comfortably in your chair and discuss with them? Visiting your doctor between the news and the commercial break? Visiting the louvre without paying hundreds of dollar? You have surely realized what I am talking about: Virtual Reality. You hear about it at any corner, it is just a word that you even come across when you read a women´s newspaper. But what will it really mean for our life? Has anyone seen the film " THE GREENCUTTER MAN" by Stephen King? Well, it shows some quite interesting sides on V R. I think there is a great risk of addiction to V R. There are people who cannot cope with their real life. These are persons endangered to hide away in their dreamworld. Maybe there would even be a new psychical desease developing, something like "Hideaway V R ".Why should you stay in a world full of crime, war and other dangers, when you can create your own one, where everyone is happy and you have no problems? Social contact is something essential for human life. And that is per- sonal contact. You all know that you are looking forward in meeting some contacts on partys, even if you have phoned them or you have some photos.It is never the same as meeting them!! And in V R you can only be represented by an image once again. Heard about a meeting corner in Internet, where you can take any body you would like? Well, cheating would be much easier, no fat, no wrinkles,no spots.... Can you imagine staying your whole life in your flat ,though you go to work, shopping and go out to cinema? All with help of V R. But what a society would this be? More egoism, more individuality, no need of con- flicting with someone else, contact just if you want it. We all would get emotional cripples, unadapted and not able to survive. Okay, I admit that this picture is a little bit exaggerated, but if it would end in something like that? Another important question: Who would own V R ? This could only afford wealthy people, I guess. And what about the outsiders? The would fall in a bigger poverty than now. And someone would own the monopoly of V R, well, this man would be really rich!! I guess there is still a long time to go until V R will affect our daily lives. There will be decades running by, maybe we will not even see it. Or this whole thing will run into a dead end. There where also people expecting the aerospace industry to develop faster, so we could now run at light speed (ENTERPRISE?). But we are still not further than visiting the moon. Who knows how we will get over Virtual Reality. ESSAY ONE by Sting of Abyss By everything is wrong I mean EVERYTHING. I look around me - I am typing on a platic and metal and glass computer perched on a desk made from cut down and toxic paint. I alt a building made of wood and bricks that were taken from the earth on a street made of poisonous asphalt that was laid over and aco system that had thrived hundreds of thousands of years. I am clothed in cotton that was saturated with pesticedes while it grew and treated and dyed with toxic chemicals while it was being processed. All of my possesions were made hundreds or thousands of miles away and shipped in styroform and plastic warp via gas-burning engines and dectructive roads and airways to me. My food, although organically grown and completly vegan, is shipped from where it was grown to my local store and is often packaged in paper, plastic, metal, and toxic inks. I know tons of people that eat meat, smoke cigarettes, drive cars, use drugs, etc., even though they know that these things will ultimately hurt the quality (and lenght) of their lives. I live in an apartment building where no-one is on a first name basis. I know more about idiot actors in hollywood that I have never met than I do about the woman who lives next door to me (and probably who is more interesting). While walking to work I inhale toxic exhaust from cars sitting in trafic. To make sure that eating 3 cans of oven cleaner will make you sick, or to make sure that pouring nail polish remover into your eyes will hurt you we torture mice, rabbits, dogs, cats, etc. We use toxic chirone bleach to keep our underpants white. We cut down the rainforest to drill for all oil so that we can drive to the video store. Do you see what I mean ? Everything really is wrong. Even the back to nature people still drive cars and use products made from materials ripped out of the earth. People struggle all of their lives doing work that they hate just to be a functioning member of a system that is wastefull, destructive and unhealthy. What I advocate is this - a sensible, pragmatic, and non-destructive approach towards existence. We need to re-evaluate our practieces. just as it doesn`t mmake sense to hire an elevator operator to run an automatic elevator it doesn`t make sense for billions of peole to drive to work alone in their cars. It doesn`t make sense to use pesticides on agricultural products. It doesn`t make sense to derive power from nuclear, coal and petroleum when we have solar, hydro and wind power. It doesn`t make sense to pour billions of tons of toxic cemicals onto our lawns so that they`ll look pretty and green. I could go on but you are probably either bored or overwhelmed by now. I advocate change, massive, massive change. Basically we should stop doing those things that are destructive to the enviroment, other creatures, and ourselves and figure out new ways of existing. "Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for surival of life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. - Albert Einstein" taken from Moby/Everything is wrong. ESSAY TWO by Sting of Abyss "Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace. - Albert Schweitzer". God is angry, I think Here in the U.S. vast numbers of politicans and religious leader (the line between the two being blurry) are masquerading hate, racism, sexism, and ignorance under the banner of conversative christian values. Conservative christian values are these - humility, mercy, compassion, love, honesty, etc. Nowhere in the bible does christ encourage his flowers to lie, slander, steal, or be divisive along economic or cultural lines. Preserving the american way has nothing to do with christ. In fact the american way of greed, cruelty, envoiremental, destruction, racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. Would seem to have nothing to do with a christ. Christ is wonderfull, loving, compassionate and honest. Today`s right wing evangelical christians seem to be insecure, hate filled creatures and allthough I should probably pty them, right now I am angry. We sit back and watch as the christian right tries to legistate their pretty morality at the city, state, and federal level. They successfully ousted the best chairman the New York city shool system ever had because he encouraged condom distribution and an open minded curriculum. Here`s a question - How are teen pregnancy, hiv/aids, and a redundant, ineffectual, curriculum christian ? Instead of spreading hate, ignorance and a narrow-minded social agenda why doesn`t the christian right go out and spraed mercy, compassion and selflessness ? Two thousands years ago christ called the religious & political leaders of his day whitewashed tombs, clean on the outside but inside full of devil. God send phrophets the religious & political leaders killed and tortured them. The religious & political leaders of 2.000 years ago were whitewashed tombs, full of evil, and the religious and political leaders of today seem to be just as bad. "If you have men who will exclude any of God`s creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men. - St. Francis of Assisi". taken from Moby/Everything is wrong. HOW TO GET YOU A GIRLFRIEND by Sunny/ACT It´s summertime, it´s partytime...it´s time to get a girl! Well, at least for some of you this may be right. and as I know, there are still some boys who suppose to make something wrong (I don´t mean you,CH!). For those these little hints, helps and tricks are ment. I guess I know something about that problem, as I am at least a girl myself. So you´ve done the first step. You´ve lifted your ass from the chair in front of your screen to go to town. Good!!! It would be good if you go with some friends, you certainly got better chances then. No really! At least my friends like it much more to talk to a group than to a single male one. Now it is no more problem. Girls are everywhere-in cafes, discos, parties , in shops, etc. I´ve got now some simple rules you should better follow if you´re really interested in a girl. 1. DON´T BE DRUNK Yeah, in some guide by some scener I´ve read it just the other way round, that it would be much easier to get in contact when you´re drunk. I beg you never to do that! You might do something that you reget when you´re normal again. The smell of beer gives most girls a close expression of you. You are better nervous than drunk! 2. DON´T PLAY THE FOOL Well, foolish boys are accepted anyway at the party, that´s right. But you will find out very fast that girls like foolish boys as good friends, but not as their girlfriend. So be not too crazy! 3. CHOOSE THE RIGHT TOPIC Okay, you´ve got the girl. Now how can you contact her? Never, and I mean never, try the old things like :"I´ve seen you somewhere before, didn´t I?" or crap like that. Look at her and find out something special about her. It´s okay that if you find out that she smokes you can ask her for a cigarett. She´s wearing a T-Shirt of some band? Ask her if she´s got the new album and what it is like! She´s got a watch? Ask her for the time, and then you can get into some small talk with her. Now it is time to choose something you can both talk about. Don´t choose computers! I must admit that most girls are not too much interested in admireing you for your scene achievements. Talk about the drinks, the friend that holds the party, the town, the disco etc. Bad topics: the weather (Boring!), politics ( you might not agree with her) and football (typical macho sport). 4. DON´T BE TOO FAST Yes, there might be girls who want to go to bed with you after the first night, but there are also a lot of girls who do not feel like that. So please don´t try to advance things, the girl might not be too happy, and you will be alone again. Wait for the girl to choose wether she´s interes ted or not! Well, I wish you good luck and a happy summer time with your dream girl! spending 15 $ on these drinks!It´s just a good deal for gas station owner H-BLOCKX "TIME TO MOVE" TOUR ´95 by Sunny/ACT I am sure all of you who have Mtv know this cool group from their songs "Move ya" and "Rising high".The five boys are original from Muenster, the capital of skaters. There the yearly worl championship takes place. Those dudes were all skaters, one of them took photos for the German skateboardmag "Monster". Well, the boys made their way down to us in the very south of Germany, to Konstanz. They played at the local "Tent festival" which took place in a circus tent. The first suprising thing was that most of the visitors where girls aged 12 to 15. some swiss youths were there,too.We arrived at 18.30, the concert began at 20.00. Entrance was at 19.30. I did not expect so much people to come. Actually the concert was completely sold. It started at the entrance that you were pushed and squeezed so hard that you could not breath any more. The organizers were afraid that someone could be hurt. Finally we achieved a place in the fourth row, quite a good place. The first group was Animal New Ones, a not so famous group, but they played well. but most of the people could no longer wait for H-Blockx. And when they finally appeared, the hell broke out. You needed a lot of strenght and your ellbows to stay where you stood, because the mass got crazy. Everybody wanted to enter the first line. What to say about the show? It was really noisy, of course, and you could not really understand the liriks, but that didn´t matter. The mood was just unbelievable great. Dave, one of the singers, was the joker and had a lot of contact with us. He shared the drinking water equal with us: one half he drank, the other one was to shower us. He often ran up and down the first line and shook hands.I got him,too. I even touched his hair! Great. He threw some sweaty towels and a drum stick down to us, but too far to catch them. The other singer came only once down, and then his shirt was nearly broken by some crazy teenage girls. The show was about an hour long, and they gave three additional acts. These guys where really nice and friendly. Some fans had their auto- graph on shirts or paper, and they friendly talked to some. I am wondering why no girl collapsed.Well, most of them acted as if it could happen any moment. I must say, before the show I did not even now their faces. But I enjoyed the show very much. If you like that kind of music, and you want to risk your ears, go there! It was also very cheap: only 15 $. So, you could say, though they are stars, they still act normal. Try it! LIFE AFTER SCHOOL by Sunny/ACT My dear brothers and sisters! Today we want to follow the very important question: is there a life after school? I am sure many of you have had this question in his or her mind. Of course it is a question of belief. You cannot experience it unless you have left school, and for you I hope this will take some more time. For me it is only one more year to go. Hard to say, but I am not very enthusiastic for leaving school. Okay, you may say now that school is boring and senseless and that you cannot await to finish it. But be careful! You have a lot of advantages by visiting school! Just think about your free time. Do you believe you will have so much time when you start to work? You will have at least an eight hour day then! And there´s no thought of saying: "Oh, today I do not want to go to work, I stay in bed." You will not stay in bed without visiting the doctor. You may say now: " Well, but I earn a lot of money when I work." That´s right, but what do you spend this money on? At first for daily life. And housing and clothes and food are not as cheap as you thought them to be. And the rest? You want to go on holidays, and you want to have some expensive hobbies. So the money is faster spent than earned. Now let´s think about the holidays. When you work, you have only about the fifth of the holidays you have now, and that is not a lot. Between 20 and 30 days a year. So enjoy it as long as you can! Well, in the end everyone will have to work. And there´s the next problem right around the corner: What do you want to work? Have you made up your mind yet? Not an easy decission, as you should have this job for about fourty years to do. And when you have found a job you would like to do, you must find a job training place at first. At least in Germany it is not very easy.Everything is depending on your marks. And even if you now say I don´t care about marks, you will come over them faster than you think. I know a lot of people who are unhappy with their job or that they did not go on in school. But when you´re working, you cannot just get out and say I want to try something else. It´s not a game, it is a serious thing. At least boys have one more year time as they must do the military ser- vice or civil service. But we girls have to get a job as fast as we can. You want to get independent from your parents, too. But you would not imagine how much money you can save when you stay at least for your training time at home. The best thing would be to study something, so you have some more funny years. But afterwards? Then you are thirty when you earn your first money Oh god, I wished I could stay pupil forever! Maybe I should become teacher? Then I had all advantages I have now..... THE PERFECT PART TIME JOB by Sunny/ACT When you realize that things are somehow to expensive to afford them, and mum and dad are not willing to push up the amount of your pocket money, it might be time to look for a part time job. Okay, there is a great variety of such jobs available. Jobs you can do according to your school times. Jobs where you do not earn a lot but enough to afford your dream of a living standard. Let me tell you something about my experiences with such jobs.I´ve tried a lot, you can believe me! At first I wanted to do a babysitter´s job.You think this cannot be hard, you just have to amuse the children some hours, so you earn easy money. Wrong, very, very wrong! The children I had to look after where about 5 and 6 years old. That´s at least an age where you can play with them. I prepared some games, and some book if they were tired so I could read something to them. Juice and cookies where ready, me too. So the children came. I was sure to have prepared more than we could play, but I found out that ten games can be finished after twenty minutes, that juice cannot be removed from our floor and that cookies can easily be spread around miles. The children were bored, I was out of nerves and the flat looked like after the second world war. Okay, another chance, another try. Lets do some advertisement delivery. You get 1000 papers, for each you get 5 Pfennig, that makes together 50 Marks (30 US$). You´re lucky if you have some skyscrapers around you, because you have finished your work after two hours. But if there are a lot of single family houses, you can run for hours. And now imagine it´s raining! No, nothing for me. Now I tried something complete different:I took a dog for a walk.Just after lunch I took the dog for an hour. Well, the dog was not mad or dangerous, but it ran after everything that ran faster than it, got into any kind of dirt, eat everything that laid on the ground, and liked water like hell. So I came home with a very dirty, very wet dog. Now I could clean it at first before it was allowed to reenter the house. And all this stuff for lousy 2 Marks per hour! Now I thought about the posibility to works in MC Donald´s. But a friend tried it before me: She said if cleaning tables and frying chips is my life, I should begin there. Finally I found a good solution:I´m giving help in English to a pupil.This job is well paid and it is not very hard to do. Aditionally I work at home when there´s work from the company my father works at. That´s writing numbers out of interview sheets, or putting cards from 1-20 toghether. Not a very amazing work, but well paid. I am not sure what kind of jobs there are outside. I am now satisfied enough, and I have not the need to try something new. More experience doesn´t make it better! I wish you good luck if you´re looking for a job.... IT´S ME- THE UNLUCKY GIRL by Sunny/ACT It seems that there are people in the world who attract any kind of bad luck. I mean, you have surely seen people that run around with full bags after being shopping, and one step before they open the door to their house the plastic bags break? Or can you imagine someone who is really careful when he crosses the street and looks for cars, and in the moment of crossing a bike appears and drives him down? Hm, I would count myself to these people. People who hurt anything you can hurt, who loose twice a month their keys or their wallet, people to whom such silly things happen that you can only laugh about. Well, for the affected ones it is not always very funny! So here are some stories out of my live. And I will kill anybody who will laugh about this! At first, I would not call myself stupid or something like that, it´s just that I am a little bit clumsy. Or the people around me are clumsy. But you have to judge it. Recently, which means three days ago, I went to Europapark, a leisure park like Eurodisney, but not so big. They have there a high-speed roller coaster. As my friends liked to take a trip, I did not want to stay out side alone and entered with them, though I was a little bit afraid. Well, I got not calmer when I read a sign that said that pregnants, children under ten, people with travel sickness, backache or people who are not 100 % fit should not enter it for health reasons. I know that I am a per son that attracs accidents, and so I though about leaving, but no way. What should I say- the story ends like this : At the moment I have a strain of my left arm and shoulder and a little sling trauma. I hear something laugh in the back! I feel not amused at all, I feel like sh..You want to hear some more stories? Here you are.... Some years ago I fell out of bed and aquired a concussion. In the last two years I broke me each toe except the two big ones. Either by running against walls, stones or something like that or even inside the house. Once my mother opened the door to my room to tell me that there´s a call for me. I wanted to leave my room at the same time- the end of the song was that I had a nerv bruise on my left arm. In the summer we go swimming at the lake. There´s a landing place for boats where the boys jump down from. One summer, there was a broken board, let´s better say there was a hole. When I went from the shore to the water, I saw the hole and jumped over it. When I went from the water to the shore I walked right into it... My boyfriend ran once over my hand with his office chair when I sat on the floor. Another day we joked around, and then I had to go to the hospital because of the ache and wore a neck prop for three weeks. I could continue this stories until judgment day. Well, I hope you liked it. And you better wish me good luck for my future life. You never know what comes ahead....Break a leg! PS: Do you really believe this story is true? The Hunt by Sunny/ACT He was on the hunt again. Noiseless, he wandered the lonely streets, and looked carefully around. It was not so easy to find them, but he could smell that certain odeur in the air .They were near. Now it was just a question of time until he would meet them .These creatures had good ears and noses,but the wind was blowing in his face. Bad luck for them! He changed the street side to have a better look on the narrow path that was running through this ruins. The once so high skyscrapers were nothing else than stones, and he could see some animals inside them. He would not enter them if not necessary.You never know what you would find there. He held his weapon tight to his body. Entering the shadows of the ruins, he tought of Jamiel who must have wandered the same streets once. They found him with an open throat, cut by sharp finger nails. The people said that the creatures were very smart. It was hard to kill them, because you would not recognize them. They said they were a kind of monster, with blue eyes and long hair. Others said they were fast, but little and not very strong. Well, he would recognize them if he saw them. This smell.... Jamiel had told him about it. It was sweet like vanilia, but a little bit of moschus. Jamiel knew every story about them. It was his aim to kill at least one of them. And the reward was high. But it was even higher if they were catched alive. Just impossible! He decided to take a break and took his bag to eat something. The creatures would not leave, as they didn´t even know he was there. He at his slide of bread and thought about his brother. He had told him not to go alone, to take him with him! But he hadn´t listened. Okay, he had been just eleven years old, but you have to be a man when you live on the streets. Jamiel had told him to hide away and to stay calm, because they had been in an area where the creatures were looking for something to eat sometimes. Jamiel had been a famous hunter, and he had nearly found them every time. But when he had asked his brother about them, he had always replied: "My boy, you´re too young. You would be scared. Well, in a year or two, I will tell you." But he had never had time again to tell him. While he had been hiding behind some rocks, his brother had climbed the ruins. He had heard the crushing stones under his feet, though he tried to walk noiselessly. Then some time later he had heard a scream, which was not manlike. He had heard the fire of the machine gun his brother had taken, and then....he heard his brother."RUN,TARAN!"He had stood up, and had looked around, frighten ed and scared."Jamiel?" His brother hadn´t answered. Then he had heard some sounds behind him, something came over the ruins. And then he had started to run. He stood up again and packed his bag. His machine gun was loaded, ready to use. It was time for revenge! Now he started to get a little bit nervous as he crawled along the wall. He sweat ,and that was dangerous. No light was making his path, and so he prayed that there would not be any stones he could struggle over. Behind him everything stayed calm. Then, after some meters, he saw the shine of an open fire. He hid behind a wall bricket, the weapon ready to use. He could hear nothing except the hungry flames that were eating their way through some wood. He smelled pinian wood. This odeur was too strong, it covered every- thing. His heart was beating up to his brain, and he sat there some minutes to calm down. He counted till ten, then he jumped into the open. He was really surprised. There was a huge fire,and something sat behind that fire. He looked at it with a wide open mouth."Close it, you will get ill", a soft voice said . He walked slowly around the fire. He could not believe what he saw. What was that? He had never seen something that beautiful before. He could not stop to stare on this creature. "Sit down", it softly replied. He plumped down like a bag of powder. This thing was somehow manlike, but it was completely different. He had never seen a man with so shiny eyes, and the hair was longer and it glittered in the shine of the fire. It was naked, and he watched it really carefully. What he saw was amazing,and his heart started to dance again. Well, this was something that needed help. The hunt could wait. It would be hungry, and it was very lonely. Maybe it was freezing? Taran decided to do something. But then it stood up and came over to him. It watched him closely, smiling at him. "Hello, my name is Nadjim, and yours?" Now it was very close to him. He was still looking at its beautiful eyes as it kissed him. His brain was turned off, and he let his weapon fall down and held his arms around its body. Suddenly the ruins were full of live. Other creatures of that kind came crawling around the walls and bricks, howling and laughing. "Well done, Nadjim, one more fool we can have some fun with."an older one said. "Well, isn´t it always like that?"Nadjim replied and left him. The other ones came over, he felt their hands on his body, and then there was the dark. A old man came over his body when he was searching for something eat able. "It is always the same", he snarled quietly "these young men ne ver believe what we tell them. No money of the world could bring me to do that." Then he walked on and called the police. They could only mark his death. "Andora,is everything okay?" The creature asked full of sorrow. "Yes,everything is allright.Now nine months,and we will have one more member!" Nadjim looked over the town."That´s great. But I still can´t believe that men have forgotten our name." Andora laid her arm around Nadjims shoulders."Yes, my dear, they have threatened us for centuries,now it´s time for revenge. It´s just a pitty that they don´t know what we are... we´re just the oh-so weak women." TRAPPED by Sunny/ACT I do not know where I am. I am just frightened, and I want to leave this place as fast as possible. I should not have examined unknown ground, that was my fault. And if I get out of here, I will never do it again, I promise you. But I cannot remember that I did any harm to them. I really don´t know why they catched me. I was walking peacefully on the ground, when suddenly some men broke out of the bush. They where carrying a net and some weapons. Normally you are fast enough to run away, but they came from all sides. Then I remember nothing. I am sitting in my prison. It seems to be a kind of cage, not very big and very uncomfortable. There are other prisoners, too. But some do not speak a word, others cry the whole night. I cannot understand all of them. I even cannot understand my masters, it´s a matter of the language. The one who brings my food is very nice. He always smiles as me, as if he wants to apologize for this. But if I try to reach him he is afraid of me. I do not know as what they regard me, friend or enemy. I will have to plan my escape properly. I hate this place, it is dirty and noisy. I wonder when I will see the bright sun once again. I am seeking for my family. I hope they are allright. I hope they have run away. I hope I will see them once again. Time is passing by slowly, I really cannot imagine how long I´m in here for now. They are very cruel. Today I was bound to a chair. They gave me something to drink that burned my mouth. It still aches like fire. Some of them seemed to have a lot of fun by doing this. What creatures are these? I do not know what they gave me. I am not hungry any more. If I want to eat something, my tongue is aching. At the moment I just live on water, that helps a little bit. My eyes are getting worse, I can no longer see clearly. It must have been some kind of poison. They have left me on my own for three days. Today they came to fetch me again. I fought with them. Then they got brutal and held me on my hands and legs. I wonder if my arm is broken, I have difficulties in moving it. They gave me an injection of the same stuff, I guess. I am fealing really tired and worn out. What do they have from this? I mean, I am no threat. They did not even try to ask me something, they just bring me in this cold room and back in my cage. My neighbour is gone. I tried to ask the men who brings the food but he seemed not to understand me. They´ve tied me to my cage because I tried to bite them. I thought this was the only way to escape, but now I see I have no chance. It seems that my arm is not broken, I cannot move it as a result of the stuff they gave me. The same has happened to my left leg. And I am loosing my hair. Greatest difficulty is that I can now just divide between dark and bright. They still bring me food, but I am no longer interested in it. They brought me into another cage. There is more room for me, and I have my favourite food. I cannot understand it! Did they find out that I do not want anything from them? I hope they will soon release me. " Note: 28.06.1995 : Monkey Nr. 32 killed. The performance of the autopsy brought the result that the toilet cleaner Nr.X12946 is serious toxic. The bottle must be marked with a skull. Toxical reaction by drinking after 12 minutes, by injection 23 hours. The toilet cleaner is not deadly, but it is corrosive and paralyzing. It also damages the eyes." FRIENDS WILL BE FRIENDS by Sunny/ACT I am sure he will return. I am sure he will return and bring some help with him. Yes, I am sure. I do not know how long I am sitting here now. It is dark, and cold, and water runs from the walls down on my head. I am lucky that I took the jacket with me, though he said that I would need no jacket, that it would be warm in here. The pocket lamp does not work since hours, the batteries are empty. And now I sit here and listen to the sound that the water makes when it falls to the stones, and I listen to the whouling wind that runs through the caves. I must sit right here and wait. When I leave this place, he will never find me again. The caves have numerous paths and crossings, one cave goes into another. I do not even know how many there are, some are filled with water, others are deep. You can break your neck if you fall into one. I know him since elementary school. We sat next to each other in every class, we had the same hobbies and we were quite often interested in the same girls. That was the only serious problem. If he had trouble at home he came to me to stay overnight, and if I could not cope with my dad he did the same for me. We bought our first car toghether, because we always went out toghether and we both had not enough money to afford an own car. you can always make something out of a bad situation, he always said. I am freezing. I think I should get up and walk some steps up and down, or I will be frozen in some time. He will return in some minutes, I am sure. It is a long way back to the road, and a longer way to the next village. It takes time. He will return. I remember the day, we must have been about eight years old, when we promised to stick together for our whole live. We became blood brothers by cutting our hands with broken glass and putting them together. "Friends will be friends", that´s what he said, friends will be friends. Yes. Where´s my bag? I cannot find it in the dark. I fear I´ve left the place he wanted me to stay. Or did he take it with him ? I cannot remember. It´s so cold, even my brain is frozen. I hope he will return. When I got married he was my witness, of course. He liked Sandra, and she liked him, too. She always said that he would have been her second decis sion after me. She´s really a joker. He often comes to dinner, and we still go out all together.When I´m on a business trip, he cares ´bout Sandy and takes her to dinner or to the opera. He is really very reliable There´s a light! No, I´m dreaming. I wonder where he is. Maybe they need a helicopter for the rescue. Or they must take the mountain rangers out of their bed, and the station is too far away. I will go on walking, he must arrive in some minutes. We´re running a business together, a car shop. It runs quite well, we make some good money out of it. And we are real partners, we have not much quarrel. When we must work overtime he often says:" Go home, Sandy´s waiting for you." Yes, we are a perfect couple, you could say. Shit! I´ve fallen over a rock. It terribly hurts. I am sure my leg is broken. Should I call for help? For what, nobody would hear me. I should better save up my power until someone will arrive. This trip was his idea." Let´s go to the mountains, I´ve found some nice caves, we can do some caveclimbing." I did not want to go, but Sandy said that I was a scary warry and so I agreed. Well, I am not as fit as he is, and I am a little bit fat. And then the cave came down, and the stones and the earth. He told me to sit where I am, he would call help, because he had found a hole in the wall of stones were he could climb through. Sandy has told me to trust him. "He nows what he´s doing, darling". Yes, he really nows what he´s doing. I´ve been robbing to the stones and the earth. I have even managed it to stand up and look for the hole. I could not find any. I will die down in here, and he has my wive and my business. Now every thing matches, everything has come clear. He closed the hole to leave me inside here. And I am sure this will be a slow death. Unfortunately I´ve forgotten to take my pistol with me. Well, maybe I will look for the other caves. I will die , anyway. The bats heard a strange voice in the deep of the cave. A man was sing- ing a song, you would have recognized it as a song by Queen, but what now bats about this? Then they heard a scream. And then it was very peace ful again. IT´S A... by Sunny/ACT I was wandering nervously around in the narrow room, smoking one cigarette after the other. Actually I wanted to give up smoking, but in this situation I didn´t think of it. I was waiting, waiting since hours. You should not leave a men alone in this situation, so I brought a good friend with me. He was sitting quietly in a corner and reading some women´s magazine. I wondered how he could stay that calm while I was running a marathon around him. I looked out of the window and opened it. Maybe some fresh air would help me to calm down a little bit. I threw my half smoked cigarette out of the window. An old woman passed by on the street and looked angrily up. I tried to smile at her and excuse me, but she didn´t notice me any longer. I turned around and walked to a seat."Do you mind turning on the tele- vision?" my friend asked. Of course not. Any kind of amusement is good in these hours. But there was just a stupid gameshow, some cartoons and a soap opera. I nervously watched the clock. The minutes went by without happening anything."And if it doesn´t work?" I asked my friend."Hey,mate, cool down, it always happens, sometimes faster ,sometimes slowlier. But it will arrive."He laughed at me and zapped through the channels. "Sure." I went out of the room to fetch me a cup of coffee and something to eat, as I suddenly recogniced that I was not hungry at all. So I just threw down the coffee and burned me my throat. Not my day today! When I walked back, nothing had changed. My friend was still amusing himself with the remote control. I recognized that the plants in here were desperately seeking for water. Their leaves were not very strong at all. I sat down again and took the newspaper, but I did nothing else than flipping through the papers.Too nervous to concentrate- too nervous for anything. Once again I looked out of the window and found a typical little town in morning business. Some women had finished their shopping. Children went home from school, and a busy bus driver was arguing with another one. "Maybe I should ask someone." My friend got a little bit angry. "Boy, sit down and wait! You cannot advance it if you run arround !" Well, he was right, of course. "Want to play some cards?" Why not? After three games he had won three times, and this was not very interesting for him. "You make me crazy!" he said, " I think it´s better if I leave now and do some shopping and come back in about an hour, okay? " Okay! now I was sitting alone. On the one hand I was bored,on the other hand I could not wait any longer.I decided to draw my attention once again on the window. It was better than TV.I was just leaning out by the window as someone shouted for me." Mr. Schneider? It´s here. I´ll just come up to you." I closed the window and opened the door when someone else came right in. "Mr. Schneider" he said, out of breeth, "here it is. Congratulation, it´s an Amiga!"
