Parkside and its SATANIC core&#13;
Patchey Andrew&#13;
Editor-In-Hiding&#13;
Through the past year here at&#13;
what has come to be UWDarkside,&#13;
we have all born witness&#13;
as demons prancing about&#13;
under the guise of "liberals,"&#13;
"democrats" and "pro-cnoicers"&#13;
have spread their evil, leperous&#13;
ways.&#13;
We have seen as they wander&#13;
around, preaching of choice and&#13;
peace and freedom. We hear them&#13;
tell their terrible tales of "clothes&#13;
hanger abortions" and suffering at&#13;
the hands of the righteous.&#13;
If they didn't want their&#13;
troubles, they should have forsaken&#13;
their evil ways!&#13;
It is time we all see them for&#13;
what they truly are: children of&#13;
SATAN! Mark my words, beloved&#13;
ones, they are evil incarnate&#13;
made camate.&#13;
THEY will corrupt you.&#13;
THEY will deceive you.&#13;
THEY will tempt you out of&#13;
the light and into the darkness of&#13;
sin and blasphemy.&#13;
Walk with THEM, and you&#13;
will soon see a world different&#13;
than that given us by Christ our&#13;
saviour.&#13;
Walk with THEM, and you&#13;
will soon dishonor your parents,&#13;
use the Lord's name in vain, even&#13;
consume alcohol and other demon&#13;
substances.&#13;
You will engage in pre-marital&#13;
sexual acts that will bring&#13;
shame upon your name for generations.&#13;
This could actually include&#13;
intercourse. You may even&#13;
be tempted into that sin of all&#13;
sins, HOMOSEXUALITY!&#13;
Worst of all, think with them&#13;
and you will soon begin to think&#13;
yourself! What terror, what evil&#13;
has befallen us!&#13;
Trust not their despicable&#13;
ways.&#13;
Trust instead in the love and&#13;
the words of Christ and hisprophets.&#13;
Use the Bible, the GREAT&#13;
WAY, as your soul guide - with&#13;
His words, you need nothing else.&#13;
There is not even any need to&#13;
think for yourself - it would only&#13;
open yourself up to temptation,&#13;
anyway. Let Christ and your&#13;
spiritual guides direct your&#13;
course.&#13;
Use Christ as your guide and&#13;
crush the blasphemers! We must&#13;
come together now and stop this&#13;
poison at its root!&#13;
Save yourself while you still&#13;
have time, children of God, before&#13;
it is too late.&#13;
Let the Lord's Book be your&#13;
sword, let us vanquish the sinners&#13;
and bend their twisted ways&#13;
to the straight arrow of righteousness!&#13;
Ebag's Bag&#13;
Why I am a Republican&#13;
Egab Akulk&#13;
Columnar&#13;
I am a Republican and&#13;
darn proud of it.&#13;
Never mind IranContra,&#13;
the S&amp;L crises, and&#13;
twelve years of Civil Rights&#13;
losses, because we got Rush&#13;
Limbaugh!&#13;
You know some stupid&#13;
people might argue that most&#13;
Republican's are just mindless&#13;
sock puppets for rich people but&#13;
not me! Hell no!&#13;
1 am a college student&#13;
and I can think for my self. Never&#13;
mind the fact that we like to cut&#13;
fmancial aid, because no one,&#13;
especially the underprivileged,&#13;
deserves to go to school except&#13;
the rich. Besides that, what is&#13;
knowledge anyway? It's danger!&#13;
Let'S go back to the old&#13;
days. Back when America and&#13;
apple pie meant something.&#13;
Miranda rights? Who needs 'em.&#13;
Robert Bork was right.&#13;
And how aboutthe Cold&#13;
War?&#13;
01' George Bush missed&#13;
his shot at becoming a Cold War&#13;
president, and that's why the&#13;
economy went sour. There was&#13;
no ridiculous escalation of weapons,&#13;
and we couldn't increase the&#13;
deficit without losing the bundle&#13;
to Ross the Boss. At least George&#13;
can claim the victory though.&#13;
Being a Republican&#13;
makes me proud.&#13;
, Proud because I know&#13;
my party is doing it's best to keep&#13;
the morals of the country right&#13;
where they belong. In the hip&#13;
pocket of Pat Robertson.&#13;
I mean who else would&#13;
you have safeguarding our right&#13;
to blame gays for AIDS, restrict&#13;
reproductive freedom, and censor&#13;
books. Maybe John Sununu,&#13;
but he's got a keen job on CNN.&#13;
Who else is going to&#13;
scream that Hillary is running the&#13;
country but us, the Republicans.&#13;
You heard us complain&#13;
about the Rodney King incident,&#13;
didn't you? I mean we are right&#13;
there, the voice of Rush&#13;
Limbaugh, I mean America.&#13;
We are the party that&#13;
bought you greats like Lincoln,&#13;
and Eisenhower. That was a while&#13;
back, but hey, Spiro Agnew, and&#13;
Nixon weren't so bad. Neither&#13;
was Ford.&#13;
Comm Arts Theatre to double as strip joint&#13;
Lack of funding necessitates alternate usage&#13;
Hal Jalikakik&#13;
Moron&#13;
A announcement by Keith&#13;
Hearse, manager of the CommArts&#13;
theater, has raised a few eyebrows&#13;
around campus, as well as a few&#13;
other things. Hearse stated that the&#13;
recent budget cuts here on campus,&#13;
"have forced us (the theater dept.)&#13;
to find a more reliable source of&#13;
income. We figured that a strip&#13;
joint would be the best money&#13;
maker for us."&#13;
In order to accomodate&#13;
the new format of the theater, the&#13;
procescenium will have an extension&#13;
"built on to the front of the&#13;
stage, which will serve as a runway&#13;
for the dancers. The theater will try&#13;
and bring in big name acts like&#13;
Tarzana the Can Crusher, whose&#13;
act features a remarkable act of&#13;
strength.&#13;
Hearse said that the format&#13;
will be topless, primarily because&#13;
a totally nude format would&#13;
be a "little tasteless".&#13;

slain students and were informed&#13;
at that time by representatives of&#13;
the Bursar's office that they would&#13;
still be responsible for paying the&#13;
remaining tuition bills in full.&#13;
One student, Bill Oney,&#13;
had an outstanding library fine and&#13;
so library officials blocked his&#13;
burial until the fine was "taken care&#13;
of." The Bursar representatives&#13;
then thanked the parents and wished&#13;
them a "nice day."&#13;
In a related incident, Academic&#13;
Skills "teacher" Phil&#13;
Abramoff remarked, "I don't care&#13;
ifthey're dead-they didn' tturn in&#13;
their homework so I'm not giving&#13;
them an incomplete."&#13;
Dr. Ben Greenebaum,&#13;
Chair of the School of Science and&#13;
Technology, states that the&#13;
buckyball was named by "Science"&#13;
magazine as the "Molecule of the&#13;
Year" in 199 I.Greenebaum added&#13;
that the buckyball molecule (discovered&#13;
in 1985) was only the third&#13;
basic form of carbon ever uncovered,&#13;
diamond and graphite being&#13;
the others.&#13;
Future uses of the&#13;
buckyball include "lubricants, catalysts,&#13;
and medicine." Ironically,&#13;

Cutting gauze for the bandages,&#13;
Wisch asked Food Service head&#13;
Jeff Wade, who was passing by at&#13;
the time for one of the Coffee&#13;
Shoppe's plastic knives. Wade&#13;
responded that "There is a $.05&#13;
charge for all plasticware if no food&#13;
or beverages are purchased."&#13;
. When questioned for his&#13;
reaction to the incident, history&#13;
professor Frank N. Egerton remarked,&#13;
"What?"&#13;
Responding quickly, professor&#13;
Don Kurnrnings, Chair of&#13;
English and Humanities, stated that,&#13;
"Here is yet another, uh, reason-sas&#13;
if.we needed any-for a person&#13;

The squinty-eyed prof then added,&#13;
"I mean, uh-what's the deal?"&#13;
An unnamed witness to&#13;
the tragedy was heard to exclaim,&#13;
"Oh, the humanity!"&#13;
A support fund for the&#13;
families of the buckyball victims&#13;
has been started. Donations should&#13;
be sent to The Stranger News.&#13;
The coat check area will&#13;
be transformed into a bar, where&#13;
beer will be available for five dollars&#13;

will be reasonably priced&#13;

can recognize them in such a public&#13;
manner. We here in the Student&#13;
Life Offices are happy to be able to&#13;
sponsor such a worthwhile and&#13;
meaningful cause."&#13;
All students are invited&#13;
and campus administration is considering&#13;

including the platinurn-selting&#13;
'Il.G .. Original Gangster" and the&#13;
recently controversial "Body&#13;
Count."&#13;
Opposition to the concert&#13;
haS been voiced, with University&#13;
officialsand campus police threat-&#13;
~ingto protest the event.&#13;
Ice-T stirred up centroversylast&#13;
year with his release of&#13;
IDe graphic "Cop Killer," a song&#13;
describingthe mindset of a maniacal&#13;
character obsessed with killing&#13;
r·&#13;
lr&#13;
I&#13;
1&#13;
police officers. Since the release of&#13;
his "Body Count" album, Ice-T's&#13;
record company ,Warner Bros., has&#13;
been bombarded with complaints&#13;
and protests from government officials&#13;
and police officers all around&#13;
the country. Continued threats&#13;
eventually led to the reissue of&#13;
"Body Count" without'Cop Killer"&#13;
and, subsequently, Ice-T's defection&#13;
to a different label.&#13;
Since the announcement&#13;
of the concert here at UW·Park·&#13;
side, officials have received numerous&#13;
complaints from students&#13;
and faculty and have done their&#13;
best to downplay the publicity surrounding&#13;
the event. Union director&#13;
Willie Kneebore reacted to threats&#13;
from local law enforcement unions&#13;
by commenting, "We at the University&#13;
of Wisconsin-Parkside are&#13;
not interested in pleasing the&#13;
Kenosha Police Department. Our&#13;
goal is In provide an artistic outlet&#13;
to the students here."&#13;
Other problems have&#13;
arisen concerning security at the&#13;
concert. Campus police officers&#13;
have issuedastatement which stales&#13;
that they will not be providing the&#13;
secunty measures required to have&#13;
a legal performance. One officer&#13;
who wished lOremain anonymous:&#13;
believes that the show could end in&#13;
a riot. "That kind of music inspires&#13;
VIOlence and Ifeel sorry for any&#13;
students who are dumb enough lO&#13;
auend. Unfortunately, we won't&#13;
be on hand to protect anyone."&#13;
Kneebore, whoreportedIy&#13;
is a closet rap fan, responded to the&#13;
Campus Police statement with a&#13;
call to any soldier-of-fortune types&#13;
who might want to "make a few&#13;
bucks in the field." Pay for the onetime&#13;
event will be negotiated on an&#13;
individual basis.&#13;

Any and all information presented in The Stranger&#13;

Orno factual basis for any of the stories publIshed m&#13;
Ihis issue, and any and all names and characters&#13;
Of all the different aspects&#13;
of a fum the most underrated&#13;
is the title. The title is the&#13;
first thing noticed when looking&#13;
at a movie in the video SLOreand&#13;
it could become a big influence&#13;
when choosing whether lO watch&#13;
Lunatics: A Love Story or The&#13;
Linguini Incident.&#13;
Overthe years their have&#13;
been some classic movie titles&#13;
such as Bambi vs. Godzilla, Everything&#13;
You Always Wanted lO&#13;
know About Sex ... but Were&#13;
Afraid lO Ask and The Rocky&#13;
Horror Picture Show.&#13;
But some of the best&#13;
movie titles can be found just by&#13;
searching the horror section of&#13;
your local video department. And&#13;
if you are lucky you may come&#13;
across some absolute gem of a&#13;
title like Blood Sucker from Outer&#13;
Space and The Beautiful Blond&#13;
From the Bashful Bend.&#13;
These are actual movies&#13;
that I have even seen rented on&#13;
occasion.&#13;
So in the spirit of movie&#13;
titles everywhere here is my salute&#13;
to the top ten bad movie titles&#13;
of all time:&#13;

them on to appear normal _&#13;
DeNiro, Farley hide out in&#13;
UW-Parkside sports program&#13;
"Are you talking [0 me?", and we&#13;
left.&#13;
SNL regular Chris Farley has&#13;
snuck onto the Ranger baseball&#13;
team with the help of ASSistant&#13;
Coach Burb Hurl. Coach Hurl said&#13;
,"Hey, most of these guys on the&#13;
Jock McGoon&#13;
Strap pin' Sports Stud&#13;
eyes she was born with rounded&#13;
radar receptors, which give the her&#13;
the capability of fanning three dimensional&#13;
pictures of objects in&#13;
her head. She went on to say that&#13;
she paints.eyes on her head just to&#13;
give the il1usion of being normal.&#13;
Members of the softball team are&#13;
pitching in to buy ber blinky doll's&#13;
eyes, which she can glue on.&#13;
A memberofthe softba\l team,&#13;
Shirley Szymczykowzashazamski,&#13;
said that while Vacuseal"wil1 have&#13;
to lean her head back lO appear like&#13;
she is blinking, she will at least not&#13;
have the horrible inconvenience of&#13;
her eyes running off of her head&#13;
while she is in the shower." Coach&#13;
Achyheel added that the blinky&#13;
doll's eyes will be a "really cool&#13;
way to psych OUl opposing pitch-.&#13;
ers."&#13;
After school, Vacuseal plans&#13;
to work at the Weather Channel as&#13;
the first live radar.&#13;
Savoir Faire&#13;
Smoolhie Movie star RoberLDeNlro and&#13;
Saturday Night Live star Chris&#13;
Farley have been discovered playing&#13;
sports at UW -Parkside recently.&#13;
In a story that could be straight&#13;
from the pages of the National&#13;
Enquirer, with the difference being&#13;
truth, a UW-Parkside softball&#13;
player with no eyes uses a batlike&#13;
radar to "see".&#13;
The player, Raquel Vacuseal,&#13;
admitted to Coach Toey Achyheel&#13;
that she did indeed have no eyes,&#13;
when he asked her last week why&#13;
she didn't blink. Vacuseal told the&#13;
Stranger sperts that she has an uncanny&#13;
radar much like thatof a bat.&#13;
This of course explains her stellar&#13;
baseball playing abilities.&#13;
Vacuseal said that instead of&#13;
When we at the 01' sports department&#13;
asked 'em why, they were&#13;
more than happy to answer.&#13;
Mr. DeNiro was busy tying&#13;
it up on the wrestling mats&#13;
when we caught up with him. The&#13;
traditionally shy DeNiro was more&#13;
than happy to chat with us, because&#13;
we're swell guys down here in&#13;
sports.&#13;
DeNlro, a method actor, says&#13;
that he is busy doing some work in&#13;
preparation for his upcoming film&#13;
on the WWF entitled Wrestling&#13;
Bull. "I wanted to get away from&#13;
the pressure of Hol1 ywood and New&#13;
York, and I figured Parkside was&#13;
the most obscure place I could find.&#13;
Besides that, Coach Koch is a good&#13;
fella.'&#13;
When we asked Mr. DeNiro&#13;
for his autograph he simply said,&#13;
team are practically blind so they&#13;
would not know a big star if one bit&#13;
them."&#13;
Unfortunately, Head Coach I&#13;
Perrier says Farley has been doing&#13;
just that, except with umpires. "Oh&#13;
that Farley, he is a vicious bastard.&#13;
The sonofabitch tookachompouta l&#13;
an urnp last week for making a&#13;
crappy call.&#13;
He wasn't thrown out because&#13;
the ump knew who he was, andwas&#13;
shocked by his star power." Farley&#13;
would not talk lo the Ranger sports&#13;
staff unless we gave him some&#13;
money. so we said, "Screw it", and 1&#13;
decided to make up some bad stuff&#13;
about him.&#13;
