1. POEMS
Dissapointment, I don't want it
by Suzanne Schumacher (salad@ridgecrest.ca.us)
The girl once stood
with her face to the sun
and stood knowing proud
she would not be just "anyone"
The world was her playground
The ocean washed her clean
And nothing so normal
was just what is seemed
Her golden head shivered
and gleamed in the light
Her own natural crown
Like the stars in the night
And "with rings on her fingers
and bells on her toes"
She could make music
but where could she go?
The place where she watered
a whole world of wishes
is now over run
by a sink full of dishes

The first moment
by Leandro (leandro@ifront.com)
The first moment
I saw you in the store
You saw me
And I didn't know.
The first moment
I saw you
I knew I could love you
If you could love me
You had sort of a flavour
The way you looked
And you looked at me
And I didn't know if you saw me
And there wasn't any question to ask
I was standing there with some groceries
I started moving the groceries
But I didn't know what shelf to put them in
But I figured I wanted to do it in such a way
That it looked like I had some purpose
But I really just wanted to look at your eyes all the time
And you said with your eyes
"Look at me with your eyes
Look at me with your eyes"
In that first moment
Your face burned into my dream
And right away I had this feeling
Maybe you're lost
Until now
Maybe I'm lost
Until now
And I thought
Maybe I'm just making this up
But your eyes
Looked like they were saying
"Look at me more"
I would move the groceries
Look at you
My breathing changed
Then I felt something dissolve
I felt there might be a danger
That anything could happen in the next moment
Maybe you would turn away from me
Or you could say
Let's go together
Forever

2. The rules of squash:
by Marco Tabini (mtabini@ifront.com)
squash: v. (action) squeezing, turning something into pulp, "I squashed
his head with a pair of pliers". / n. (sport) a sport practiced
by two individuals that desperately chase a small blue ball
around a court and severely bruise themselves as they hit their
heads against the wall, without ever actually hitting the ball
more then twice in a row, other then the odd 1:745 ratio.
Winner is the casualty with less physical damage.
1. The goal of the game is *not* to hit your opponent in the genitals.
2. While playing, you must wear protective goggle at all times.
This will not only cause blindness due to condensation but also
raise the possibility of eyes and eventually brain damage
3a. No pain no gain.
3b. No pain no squash
3c. No squash no gain
3d. Cogito ergo sum
3e. Cogito ergo pain ergo squash
3f. No pain, so much better
4. The ball is the blue one. It is strictly forbidden to hit all other
balls in play
5. The squash racket should not be used in snow.
6. There is no rule 6 without rule 5
7. Hitting the audience can result in criminal charges.
8. Do not hit your opponent if he is an Arabian terrorist in search of a
vengeance against the evil West.
9. It is forbidden to play squash in the middle of mine field
10. Do not check the time while holding the racket with the same hand where
you keep your wristwatch.

YMCA: 10 rules for a better living
1. Beware. If someone of the same sex as yours smiles too much or is too
much kind towards you, he's a fag.
2. Do not enter the sauna if you are carrying any explosives
3. Do not play squash with the editor of CoN. He's a lousy player.
4. If you don't remember your lock combination, write it on a sheet of paper.
5. Do not leave the sheet of paper in your locker.
6. Do not leave the sheet of paper in your friend's locker, if he has the
same problem as you.
7. Make sure you write your locker's combination with soluble ink, on a
piece of paper you have conviniently stuffed in your speedos, as you
enter the pool.
8. Do not answer your friend when he says "I'll put the locker's key
in my pocket" as you both are about to enter the sauna, completely
naked.
9. Eventhough you speak a different language other then english and you
crack jokes and offensive comments about everyone in the changing
room, make sure the big, strong, muscled, latino-guy sitting beside
you doesn't understand you are calling him a "girly-fag".
10. While you are on the cyclette, doing the "Random" program, don't
start to panic when your heart rate reaches, according to the
machine, 198. Instead, just wonder how come you are still able
to pedal, considering you can't feel your legs anymore.

3. It must be the weather
by Leandro (leandro@ifront.com)
Lately CoN is receving so much stuff from the outside world,
that not only I stopped writing my usual weekly blurb, but the next
three issues are almost ready. But I like writing (or is that
whining and complaining?) so I moved the original article to next week and
stole it's spot, so that I could torture everyone with my "deep" thoughts.
For a lazy guy like me, running around like a freak with his two jobs,
looking for a new apartment to move into, going to the Dojo and
the YMCA or just for a night out with friends, CoN is a difficult
hobby. I can't deny that it's fun though, especially those
nights that I have nothing to do and I go over Colin's house and
we sit down planning all this deranged ideas, that one day, we hope,
will see the light.
It has been kind of weird lately: starting from the weather
which hasn't figured out if it's winter or not (it snows, it rains,
then the sun comes out..), my future, where I have to decide
exactly what to do. IFront has given me a possibility and I took it.
However I want to start school and do something, but I can't think of
what do. I'm too stupid to go into Engineering, too violent to go
into Law Enforcement, my english is not that great to go into
Journalism (yeah, right, Journalism). I want to do something which
will be fun.. I'll figure it out. It felt as if the world was to an
end with the loss of Neetu. But love is like the sun. Tomorrow is
another day and the sun is young again. Out of nowhere popped
Stephanie. 1996 is almost over, I had made no resolutions for this
year but on the other hand I feel like I have achieved a lot, and
learned several important lessons -- especially about people.
With that, I'll leave you. Have you started your Christmas
shopping yet? There is less then 3 weeks left of 96. Even if it has
been a bad year, don't waste these precious days. Instead get the
most out of them, for they will never come your way again. Pretend it's
a drawing; maybe you did some mistakes, the paper is a little dirty,
stained, and the picture doesn't look quite perfect. But you
learned what the mistakes are. `97 is like a clean sheet of paper.
Draw what you learned, and brace yourself, who knows what
surprises are coming your way. Or what you might *yikes* be forced
to learn!

p.s.
If your articles don't appear in this issue, please don't
panic. I try to keep CoN to a limit of 4 articles per week. If
it's not here, it will appear probably next week. Nothing is trashed,
everything gets used =)

4. rec.music.white-power
A group of NEO-NAZIS are trying to form a newsgroup on Usenet called
"rec.music.white-power", so that they can get their message of hate out
to young people using the Internet.
Newsgroups are public discussions on the Internet and their formation
requires enough support from the Internet community.
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HAS ONE VOTE when it comes to creating a new
Usenet group. I hope you will vote NO and thereby tell these NAZIS we
don't want their stuff on the net. Below is the procedure, please repost
this plea and get the NO vote out. If you want to see the official call
for votes, you can try on "news.group".
DO NOT VOTE TWICE - that would constitute voting fraud.
HOW TO VOTE:
Send e-mail (posts to newsgroups are invalid) to:
music-vote@sub-rosa.com
This is an impartial, third party vote taker.
Please check the address before you mail your vote. Your mail
message, to be accepted by the counting computer, must
contain only the following statement with no signature:
I vote NO on rec.music.white-power
Vote counting is automated. Failure to follow these directions
may mean that your vote does not get counted. If you do not receive
an acknowledgment of your vote within three days contact the votetaker
about the problem. It's your responsibility to make sure your vote is
registered correctly.
Here's what Canada's George Burdi, of the neo-Nazi Heritage
Front, had to say about this vote, on February 21, on his RESISTANCE
mailing list:
"There is a call for votes coming on rec.music.white-power
in the next week or so, and you will be notified in a special
issue of RREN exactly what to do. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
TO THE LETTER. Let me be perfectly blunt and state that we have
more than enough net-nazis to win this thing handsdown. But every
one of you must vote YES! And just voting yes means nothing unless
you do it properly. So you have been forewarned. The instructions
are coming to your email box soon, and they are not complicated.
Just follow them as told, and we will have a WP music newsgroup
finally!"
If Mr. Burdi's confidence disturbs you, please give this
letter the widest possible distribution, and help us deliver the
largest NO vote in the history of the UseNet.
