Sex With Sheep Rev 03
Review on First Issue Of The SWS E-mag
Big Johnson
First off the name "Sex With Sheep" is very strange. It is slightly grotesque
if you think about it literally. If you keep it in a humorous perspective as
it was obviously intended, it is a good name. I also like the disclaimer
explaining not to take the name literally, it is a good addition.
The introduction to the E-mag is very informative and humorous. It explains
the history of SWS in great detail, and adds some funny points such as when
the writer refers to Chunk as having an "inferior mind". I think it is well
written and you can tell the writer has intelligence.
The articles have many good aspects as well. The music article is well
written for the intended audience. I personally don't keep up with such
things, but it is an interesting article none the less. I believe my favorite
part of this E-mag is the article on censorship. It shows truth, and holds no
information back. The article was written in a non-attacking manner. It gets
the point across without getting ugly. There's not much to say about the
article on pay phones except that it is a useful trick and I will try it
sometime. I didn't really grasp the "Krazy" article. It was obviously crazy.
It was well written like most of the things in the E-mag, and it was humorous.
Personally, I don't really like poetry so I'm not much of a critic, but from
the poems I read I felt emotion, deepness, and overall thought they were
great. The last one, "Spastic Ass" wasn't as good as the others, but added a
good quality to the overall feel.
Now, the ansi review. The reviewer showed a good knowledge of ansis. His
reviews were straight to the point and short, but there's not that much to
say about ansis. Like the rest it was good.
Lastly, the text reader program. The ansis were well integrated into this
program. I only found a couple of small bugs, but nothing major. The coder
did a good job even though in the introduction, the writer had some doubts if
it was going to be good or not.
Overall I liked the first issue of the SWS E-mag. I would definately read it
again. On a scale from 1 to 10, I'd give it an 8.5. I give it this score only
because it was not perfect as it should not be expected to be. It is the
first in the series so there's obviously room for improvement. Thank you for
taking the time to read this review.
