 Food and Health zines, reviewed by Seth Friedman who does _Food For Thought_
 have been added to the menu.  Queer zines have been updated.  Punk zines
 will get updated this week.  I'm still slogging through the lit zines,
 expect an update RSN.  Pagan/occult zines are hoped-for soon.

 A couple more _really_ choice zines:
 
 %Title:  Drudge  #1
 %Descr:  For a music zine, Drudge isn't particullarly special.  It's not bad
 (as so many are), nor is it overwhelmingly fantastic (but I've yet to read
 an overwhelmingly fantastic music zine).  What makes Drudge so must-have is
 the cassette that comes with it.  Jason interviews Illusion of Safety, Big
 City Orchestre, Windowpain Industries and Belt; they all provide material
 for the cassette.  Windowpain will intoxicate you even if you've never taken
 drugs.  Bel and Illusion of Safety are so bent and frightening that I just
 have to listen over and over and over until I go on a multicide spree at
 Burger King.  Big City Orchestre is great, also.
 %Info:   $3.00 ? to Jason Mantis  117 Witherspoon Rd.  Baltimore MD  21212
 12 pages, standard + cassette that will turn your mind inside out.
 
 
 %Title:  Travis Bickle Soliloquy:  poems and prayers
 %Descr:  I hate poetry.  I farmed out the poetry reviews to reiko and don't
 blame her for not touching them.  But this, this is seriously twisted stuff.
 I don't know what it is about Texas.  We'll let a couple of pieces speak for
 this publication:
 
 That's Why We Celebrate Christmas
 
 A child with elephantitis,
 teeth rotting from too many Snickers bars.
 The lurking suspicion that you've contracted V.D. from
 that 17 year old girl and that you might one day die
 insane from syphillis.
 Dangerous women, full mouth braces and all.
 Cut from the same mold as cocaine and hershey bars.
 Selling themselves for chocolate, with almonds.
 That's why we celebrate Christmas because Jesus was only born on one day of
 the year, not the other 364.
 
 
 Gilles De Rais Syndrome
 
 I praise the neutron bomb,
 Bluebeard and the Viet Cong.
 The pony rides at Peppermint Park,
 the sounds of gun shots in the dark.
 Skinny dogs that wheeze and whine,
 strnage symbols and prophetic signs.
 The sound of children crying,
 the Shetland pony is dying.
 Something borrowed, something new,
 something choking and somehting blue.
 Blue like the face of a choking child
 with one of those plastic bags over its head.
 You know the ones that say "This is not a toy.
 Keep all plastic bags away from children."
 
 Plus pictures from various medical books.  Not for the faint of heart or
 weak of stomach.
