This is the first issue of the HToMC News in nearly a year. Only the
extremely slackful mail from Priestesses Beth and MB saved us.
NEWS since the last time:
Washington DC Pro-Choice Rally: Largest rally ever held in the
capital. Several Dobbsheads sighted; favorite sport was lobbing
tennis balls onto the White House lawn, much to the chagrin of the
Secret Service spooks. Disappointingly few anti-choice demonstrators
to harrass, although they all took a copy of The Pamphlet.
DragonCon in Atlanta: Successful Gut-Blowout in Room 538, with the
"Bob"'s Blood drink quickly running out: not enough time to kill
another "Bob". This event was also covered by MTV.
WorldCon in Orlando, Florida over Labor Day Weekend. Yeah, I know,
this also overlaps with the World SubGenius Convention in Chicago,
but the WSC is staged to draw the bobbies away from the *real* party.
HToMC will be at PhenomiCon this year- see ad in this issue.
Keep those cards and letters pouring in! Due to the new zine format,
drawings and other artwork will also be accepted for upcoming issues.

A New MacDonalds Advert
by mathew
There's a difference at MacDonalds
Come and eat here if you dare
Our latest restaurant's open
It's just off Tienanmen Square
To our friends the Chinese government [Neat picture here, if you
We give our hearty thanks had the hardcopy version,
They've cleared away the rubble pink boy!]
And they've hidden all the tanks
It's fun for all the family
Please bring your children too
We love kids at MacDonalds
We've a special place for you
The clown Ronald MacDonald
Has not arrived here yet
He's giving forced abortions
To the women of Tibet
He's rounding up the dissidents
The students and the rest
For summary execution
Via a bullet in the chest
Come join us at MacDonalds
And help us make a buck
When it comes to human rights abuse
We couldn't give a fuck
That's the difference at
MacDonalds you'll enjoy

AWESOME NEW IDEAS FOR NINTENDO VIDEO GAMES THAT WILL BRING IN MUCH $$$
After a year sharing a dorm with a roomate who's purpose in life was to
play video games, I've noticed that just about all video games are of
the hack/slash/bonk/kill everything you see on the screen variety. Even
the so called "educational" software titles gave up a long time ago.
Video games have no redeeming qualities, but perhaps a new idea will bring
in a waft of fresh air, and make the inventor rich as well.
IDEA #1:
Flower Delivery Man- You are Humphrey T. Widdleshuns, a delivery
man for a florist. The object of the game is to bring happiness and
sunshine to all your customers and flower recipitents. You get points
for driving your delivery van in a safe and courteous manner, and the
happier the world is, the more points you get. The 'fire' button makes
your character smile, so if you smile at a passer by, you get more points.
The other fire button makes your character say, "Have a nice day!".
You go up on different levels, with different scenarios. First level would
be easy. You deliver flowers to people in sleepy Winnionia, Idaho, where
life is easy and everyone is nice. You go up through New York city,
downtown LA, Crack neighborhoods in DC, conquering all the unhappy people
with gifts of flowers and love. The last level is in the Serbia/Yugoslovokian
border, where you must melt the hearts of grizzled rebel leaders with
a slavo of "Have a nice day!" (In Serbianish, of course) and smiles.
The game ends when the whole world is singing in harmony and there's
sunshine and happiness everywhere, and all the leaders of the world
hold a big barbecue where *everyone* is invited in your honor.
IDEA 2#
Maybe peace and happiness isn't what people want, so might as well
cut the crap and give 'em what they want. You are Captain H.T. Bludd,
veteran from the Star Troopers. Your mission is to crush the enemy, the
Orinians, with the latest Star Trooper battlecruiser. Your battlecruiser
is big and massive, with unlimited shields, endless supply of enemy seeking
fusion missles, two billion anti-matter bombs, fifty seven hull mounted
laser cannons, special "energy wave" disruptors, orbiting fire drone
assistants, computer-controlled target aquisition, three hundred "smart
bombs", cobalt space mines, super-warp light speed, auto-repair, and
everything goes off at once when you push the fire button. And that's
just to start out, and you get more weapons as the mission progresses.
The Orinians, on the other hand, are centuries behind weapons technology
compared to the Star Troopers. The best defense the Orinians are able to
come up with are a thin spread of slow-moving chemically powered single
man space capsules, with only a weak laser for offensive capabilities
and don't even have any shields. Blowing up the Orinians' home planet
is a piece of cake, since your ship is automatically navigated, and
all you have to do is hold down the fire button. It'll sell like
hotcakes, I assure you.

19. Take up a collection to pay off the deceased' gambling debts.
20. Ask the widow if you can have the body to practice tattooing on.
21. Put crazy Glue on the deceased's lips just before the widow's last kiss.
22. Show up at the funeral services in a clown suit.
23. If the widow cries, blow a trumpet every time she wipes her nose.
24. When no-one's looking, slip plastic vampire-teeth into the deceased's
mouth.
25. Toss a handful of cooked rice on the deceased and scream
"MAGGOTS! MAGGOTS!" and pretend to faint.
26. At the cemetary take bets on how long it takes a body to decompose.
27. Goose the widow as she bends over to throw dirt on the coffin.
28. Circulate a petition to have the body stuffed instead of buried.
29. Tell everyone you're from the IRS and you're confiscating the coffin for
back-taxes.
30. Promise the minister a hundred dollars if he doesn't keep a straight face
while praising the deceased.

on some earthshattering graphics]
