I think people like YOU are what have caused the world to go downhill. By glorifying violence, belittling the sacrament of sex, and making fun of anyone who's just a teeny bit DIFFERENT, you do nothing but promote ignorance, fear, and idiocy. I only wish you could do something more constructive with your time and energy, you awful Generation Xers! Take your Ooze and shove it up your weenie slacker ass!

Surprisingly most people just aren't aware of the incredible amount of community work our staff actually does. Mr. Wardell visits the Los Angeles County Men's Jail every day and leads hundreds of art-starved inmates in some of the most beautiful ballet sequences seen on the West Coast. Mr. Schmidt and Wagner are known for their generosity towards the Hollywood homeless, sponsoring the bi-monthly jello-bath where any of the teeming destitute are invited to splash around in giant tubs of the gelatinous stuff. Besides writing comedy projects for Alan Thicke, I spend most of my free-time whittling prosthetic limbs from driftwood that washes up along the banks of the LA river. You watch who you call a slacker, Missy. We Care!

Ooze is the first e-zine I've read that didn't scream "I was written by 15-year-old losers who think fart jokes are funny and build black boxes because we can't get a date!" Okay, so maybe Ooze is sophomoric-at least it's funny, has clever illustrations, is intelligently written, and most importantly, is spell-checked...

And for what it's worth, I liked the format of the first edition, because it had sounds and groovy buttons. It set it apart from the usual DocMaker 'zines.

Sincerely,
