       BASTARD ANIME CLUB FROM HELL'S PLOT TO CRUSHED THE ANIME
             WORLD UNDER ROBOTECH SOUNDTRACKS ON 8-TRACK
                            Part: II


[to recap the story thus far, the resident Mad Scientist of JACK, those
ever so evil and all-around really mean Pocky (tm) addicts, has developed
a new evil super buma to accomplish JACK's evil task of dominating the
otaku's of the midwest.  At the end of our last episode, the Mad Scientist
was just about to unveal his newest bastard creation....]


Igor!  Throw the switch!

<pzzzt, poppp, crackle>
Look, it awakens!  The beast rises, the sheet falls away to reveal....

Two dark, shadowy forms that seem strangely familar look on from a corner
of the lab, nodding their approval.  One of them can be heard saying in 
hushed Texas accent, "My dream, my dream WILL come true..."  The other
drapes an arm across his shoulder, and the lab begins to slowly resonate 
with evil laughter..
 
<flash to the UIUC Quad where various anonymous member of JACK can be
 seen roughing up a small group of Starfleet Academy members, little old
 ladies, cute puppy dogs....>

PLEASE! PLEASE! We'll accept the Gospel of Macek!  Just don't let HIM touch
us!....please....<wimper, wimper...>  
<a large figure can be seen slowly approaching from the engineering campus>
<thump, thump, thump, touch, BOOOOM!>

<Insert manical laughter here as the JACK members clean various internal
 organs, blood, and puppy parts off their shiney club buttons...(only $3.95
 plus shipping and handling)>

     No one can stop us!  Today, it's Chicago, Peoria, and Idaho! 
                         TOMORROW THE WORLD!

<the group continues their manical laughter, but it awkwardly stops as one
 looks to the east, towards the land of corn and PAC'men.  After some 
 nervous laughs, they renew their spirts with a rousing group rendition of
 Stagefright around a bonfire under the star filled night sky...>


[TO BE CONTINUED...?]

RELAX people.  I've been getting some pretty weird mail from people who
don't seem to realize that this is a JOKE!  The whole point is to have
FUN, and if you don't realize this, I feel sorry for you.

I originally started this all just to poke a little fun at all of our
little insecurities.  It's so much easier believing that there's an
organization/person  out there with nothing but malicious intent.  An evil 
idol that one can blame their troubles on.  However, a good deal of the
troubles that we experience are caused in part by ourselves.  Many 
percieved attacks are nothing but illusions created by the paranoid parts
of our minds.  Once in a while, you have to take a step back, look at
yourself, and make fun of yourself.  It's a healthy habit and more 
people should try it.

After some of the responses, I'm starting to feel a little paranoid myself...

[Rob, if you're reading this, I hope you get something out of it]
