Issue #2 | Disclaimer: The Editor will place almost anything | June 24, 1988

the issue, so don't blame him for the quality or content of the submissions.

Excepting those he may have written himself, the enclosed items do not in any

way represent the Editor's opinions. In fact, let's be real safe, and say that

as far as this newsletter is concerned, he has no opinions at all. Okay? Good.

Editorial from Pickle:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Hi m00ses! Here we have issue two, which is not very large. If
|
||
|
you would all make submissions it would be larger (obviously). So let's
|
||
|
have those stories, party announcements, subversive plans, etc!
|
||
|
As promised, in this issue we will discuss the distribution of the
|
||
|
newsletter. A couple of ideas have been suggested, and they follow:

>Pickle:

|
||
|
>Hi there big kahuna!
|
||
|

|
||
|
>Got another thought for you to cut down on the number of copies sent. With
|
||
|
>the relatively low number of nodes you have now, maybe what you might want to
|
||
|
>do is have distribution sites, rather than just nodes. In other words, set
|
||
|
>things up something similar to the LISTSERV's that are all over the place.
|
||
|
>For example, you could send a copy to me, and then I would send to all others
|
||
|
>at the Villanova thr0ng, as well as the Haverford thr0ng, and the Bryn Mawr
|
||
|
>chapter, all of which are rather close to my node. In this way, we could
|
||
|
>expand (as we know we will) in the number of nodes we are gathering at, without
|
||
|
>increasing the number of copies you yourself send out. Once we start getting
|
||
|
>large enough, we can incorporate the one-receiver-per-site idea as well, so
|
||
|
>that I, as the, um, let's call it the Mid-East-Coast-and-any-parts-South
|
||
|
>distributer, would send to one person at the Haverford thr0ng, and let him/her
|
||
|
>get it to all the others there. Sound good? Let me know, I'd be happy to
|
||
|
>invest the time in deciphering the Bitnet mappings to figure out the best
|
||
|

And another from Sabre:

|
|
||
|
> Dear m00ses,
|
||
|
> If a simple bull m00se may make a suggestion...why don't we
|

|

>here...if everyone subscribes to m00se csnotice, Great Herd Leader
|

|
>Pickle will only have to send each issue of m00se droppings to

|

|
>Furthermore, csnews will send it flat, in a protective brown

|
> For those of you who like to read stories...well, there's Sfstory,

I think it would be easiest if we all subscribed to CSNEWS. Then comes
|
||
|
a big question, though: Do you want to continue to send me submissions,
|
||
|
and I'll compile M00se Droppings and post it to CSNEWS (thus using it merely
|
||
|
as a distribution method) or should we drop the newsletter format, and just
|
||
|
have everybody post to CSNEWS (thus using it as a listserv of sorts). Let
|
||
|
me know what you think. I suppose we could do both, posting to CSNEWS for
|
||
|
casual banter, and I'll compile fiction and things into M00se Droppings.
|
||
|
Tell me what you think ASAP, and we'll try and reach a conclusion
|
||
|
before next friday. And until then,
|
||
|
|
||
|
Bl00p and farewell,

FICTION AND POETRY

|
There is, however, a song, submitted by Sindex. Author unknown, he got
|
||
|
it at a con some time ago.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
M00SE
|
||
|
|
||
|
When I was a young man i used to like girls,
|
||
|
I fondled their curves and I patted their curls,
|
||
|
But me girlfriend ran off with a salesman named Bruce,
|
||
|
You'd never get treatment like that from a M00se!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chorus:
|
||
|
So it's M00se, M00se, I like a M00se,
|
||
|
I've never 'ad anything quite like a M00se,
|
||
|
I've 'ad many women, my life has been loose,
|
||
|
But I've never 'ad anything quite like a M00se!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now when I'm in need of a very good lay,
|
||
|
I go to me closet and gets me some hay,
|
||
|
I opens me window and spreads it around,
|
||
|
'Cause M00se always comes when there's hay on the ground!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chorus
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now I've made it with all kinds of beasties with hair,
|
||
|
I'd make it with snakes if their fangs were not there,
|
||
|
I've made it with walrus, two ducks and a goose,
|
||
|
But I've never 'ad anything quite like a M00se!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chorus
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now gorillas are fine for a Saturday night,
|
||
|
And lions and tigers, they puts up a fight,
|
||
|
But it just ain't the same when you slams their caboose
|
||
|
As the feeling you gets when you 'umps with a M00se!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chorus
|
||
|
|
||
|
(slowly)
|
||
|
Now that I'm old and advanced in me years,
|
||
|
I'll look back on me life, and I'll shed me no tears,
|
||
|
As I sit in me chair with me glass of Mateuse,
|
||
|
And play hide the salami with Molly the M00se!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Chorus

MISCELLANEOUS NONSENSE
|
||
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Apart from the above lewd song, there is no nonsense in this issue. Quite
|
||
|
agreed, quite agreed, too silly, too silly.
