THE LATEST IN LEE & WOLFE NEWS:

((This issue: Squirrels, hampsters, buses, gunfire, dust, and pictures! - see below.))

If you're new to the Fun-O-Rama, welcome! Remember, you can catch up with Lee & Wolfe news by reading back issues on the website at [ http://v91.simplenet.com/leewolfe/fanzine.htm ].

"Squirrelly Things"

So you might at times wonder "What else do these Lee & Wolfe guys do?" Welllll, we'll tell ya... even more computer geeky stuff, that's what. Along with our Largest Fan Patrick Crispen and Intern Heather, we have created something on the Net called Squirrel Hunt. Now I know what you're thinking, but it's not that kind of squirrel. Squirrel Hunt is a bi-weekly Internet scavenger hunt where we ask questions, you find the answers on the Net, and win lovely prizes as well as the adoration of your Net friends worldwide. We'd like you to check out the Hunt, and even sign up if it sounds fun to you, by visiting [ http://netsquirrel.com/hunt ]. There are also versions for grammar and high school levels. Thrill to brain teasers like "How long will it take me to travel from Holmenkollen to Trosterud via the subway?" and "In the Grateful Dead song 'Terrapin Station' there is a section of the song called 'Lady with a Fan.' In that part of the song, 'shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair all swarm down in' what is presumably a certain European town. This city has a local college of the same name. On what day does this college's Spring 1999 term end?" They ain't easy. But it's fun to try, and maybe even win a li'l sumpm-sumpm.

"Hop on the Bus"

"Trade Wit Cha!"

"Shot and Nearly Burned"

And now, here's Wolfe, with A Moment in Wolfe's Life, episode 1, My Day Job: There is a certain amount of joy that comes from spending your entire day typing progress notes and annual plans of care for retards. So you can bet yer bottom dollar that my outlook on this job was enhanced ten fold BOTH TIMES there was gunfire in the parking lot next to my office. What's that? It doesn't sound like fun? Oh, just you wait. There's more! Just today I smelled smoke. One of the fans in an air conditioner caught fire. Now we've added fire to gunfire. Can we do that? Is that legal? Can I get a flag on this play? The moral of this story, ladies and gentlemen, is that a radio job is much safer. The end. -- Wolfe Kincaid

And now on with the newsletter...

ON THE SHOW:

"Band-wise"

Friday, March 19th, in the 7 o'clock hour, we will be welcoming once again to the Lee & Wolfe show, Dust! After their first appearance last year, they just kept calling and calling! ;-) A variety of loud rock music will abound. Remember you can call the studio at (205)348-6082 , e-mail, or "instant message" us, since we always try to be online some during the Friday show.

"Other-wise"

Well, it's baseball season again. And we couldn't be more excited. Freeing us of that pesky 3rd hour of show from 7 - 8 pm this week is yet another edition of Men Chasing Balls. The show is back to full length next week, March 26, with our Spring Break special. Roll Tide.

ON THE WEBSITE:

Weren't you just thinking about what Lee looked like back when he was a small redneck child? What DOES a two year old look like with a Pall Mall and a Pabst Blue Ribbon? Well, I dug through the archive of the Lee & Wolfe Presidential Library in sunny Northport, Alabama, and came up with a treasure trove of pictures. Then I had to come up with the guts to post them. Lee in the 70's is on the Picture Pages at [ http://v91.simplenet.com/leewolfe/picpages/picpages.htm ]. Have fun. Tease me later.

Of note: the live webcast of our show will likely not be available today. Our "streaming guy," better known as Crotchety Dickle Boy, had to leave town for a family emergency, and was being very kind to think of us and leave on the audio stream 'til he got back several days from now. Was gonna be great--live WVUA for a week straight! Later Monday night, thanks to the fine computer mecca that is Seebeck Computer Center at the University of Alabama, the feed died. *SIGH* But, as Viagra Dole said to Liddy, "It'll be up again soon."

THE STRANGEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE:

And now for the real reason you read these fanzines. Patrick sent me a link recently, and the subject of his e-mail was "TWO WORDS: JUSTIFIABLE HOMOCIDE." I thought he probably meant "homicide", since the link was to a very annoying site. But since the page is full of hampsters, maybe he meant "homocide." I'll have to ask him. I dare you to let the following entire page load, then stare at it: [ http://www.hamsterdance.com ]. Someone had money to kill on a domain name.

Thanks again to all of you for reading, listening, writing, and making us feel true love again...
