by Mutter
muahahaha... you thought youd never see me again!! well you
were DEAD-FUCKIN-WRONG. Yah, you heard me, bitch.
anywaze...
welcome to yet another issue of the official zine of homeless men,
age 30 to 35: y0lk.
For those of you who didnt get it and who really does? the title
of this issue was taken from an old rhyme that I remember kids used to
say starts off with Miss Lucy had a steamboat. The steamboat had a
bell. The steamboat went to heaven and Miss Lucy went to... hell-o
operator, gimme... getit?. Whomever is the first to correctly complete
the rest of the titles line will have the next y0lk I write dedicated to
them if I ever make another, that is: Send all contest entries to:
mutter mutter@magsystems.erebus.com
w0w, I just made a contest...I feel so...important
*deep breath*
A lot has happened to me since I wrote my first y0lk. I mean, I never
thought that rambling on for roughly two to three pages could have such
an impact on my life. I am now instantly recognized on the street dont
ask me how...I guess I just look like a mutter. I have young women always
around now telling me how theyd do *ANYTHING* for an autographed picture.
I even have had offers for provocative TV roles such as:
Jimmy, the brown power ranger!@ When hes not reading y0lk or kickin
the nerdy rangers ass jimmy likes to spend quality time with his
personal love slave, the pink ranger! woo.
Heres another way my life has changed. The following is the transcript
of a call I made this afternoon:
Me- pressin the 0 key which is actually marked as 189 on my phone but
thats a different story involving santa, squirt cheese, and my
intense hatred of cats. Lets not get into it...
operat0r- Bell Atlantic, operator 6012, how may I help you?
Me- Yes, hi. umm...Im trying to call a 900 psychic hotline. Ya know
the ones. Where you can learn about love, money, spam, fluff,
you name it. They know it all!! Cause theyve been blessed
with the gift.
operat0r- yes, sir. Now how can I help you?
Me- Well, it seems every time I try to make a call to the hotline
the dangdest thing keeps happening. I keep gettin billed for
the call.
operat0r- well, sir if youre calling a 900 number youre supposed to
get billed. Thats how the people who own the number and the
telephone company make their money.
Me- OH! no, you dont understand, you feeble minded creature, you.
*I* write for y0lk.
operat0r- ohmigodohmigodohmigod
Me- calm down. Its okay. Im mutter.
operat0r- OHMIGODOHMIGOD...Im so so sorry, sir. I had NO idea. Im a
really big fan. All of us operators read y0lk religiously, ya know.
Hold on one sec and let me clear up this little billing problem.
tap tap tap tap tap
Okay, sir. Your line is now excempt from any and all charges.
Just to let ya know, me and my husband, Fred, like screaming
midgets too!@
Me- *sigh* sure you do.
operat0r- Is there anything else I can do for you?
Me- Umm...yea, have phorces phone line disconnected.
operat0r- tap tap tap done, and done.
Me- tee hee.

--------- children grow up to be rich and successful fun lovin adults?-----
No, I didnt know that.

--------- techno-savvy world of tomorrow... -----
I never knew that. mother reluctantly puts y0lk back into
bobbys hands
--------- there ya go! encourage your kids to read y0lk! Even the -----
