so basically, we suck...

hi. so I think we’ll start off with some introductions:

1. me, Jessica. I am the typist and co-author of this wonderful little puddle of information. if you don’t like the layout or, of course, my writing, then I’m the one to complain to.

2. Andrew, the boy. he is the other author of when wishes come true. he’s quite a silly boy, as you can tell from the earth crisis letter. he goes to kutztown university in pa, just for your information.

now let’s get down to the heavy stuff - explanations:

this project, now called when wishes come true, started out as just that, a project for fun. then, time started knocking at our doors. this was lets say 3 or so years ago, when we both were doing our own zines, but decided to combine. we got an interview with empathy, "yeah it’s almost out" we kept saying, then I left for Switzerland for a semester, and Andrew went to school, etc. now we’ll warp to the more recent present. the beginning of last year we got an interview with gameface, and now we’re thinking "we better get this out before they break up too". so here I am, finally doing this, and now we have learned our lesson - interviews last. but then again, if it weren’t for those interviews, this would never be out. I have cut so much out of this story it is unbelievable, but there you go. oh!, and Andrew is still single.

and here we go with the thanks............................................................

Empathy (or the former members of...)

Gameface (especially jeff and todd)

[jessica’s]

joel (with out whom I would not be where I am), claudine, brian, madeline, angel, christa, tim, derrick, vincent en suisse, rob because he fixes my computer and showes me how to make the web page, and everyone else who has helped me in some way...

[andrew’s]

all my friends, anyone who has helped me in anyway, the Kutztown crew, and the middletown "better than you" crew.

ok, so there you go. now we just want to add that you can take this zine how ever you want, read it , wipe your ass with it, whatever; just try to keep and open mind. we hope you criticize, in fact we are actually looking forward to hate mail, so go ahead and send it. send anything you want ( reaction papers, love letters, meaningless notes, oven mitts, etc.).

DEDUCT WHAT YOU MUST, IT WASN’T INTENDED TO BE PERFECT... and please excuse any typos or what not: it’s like once you have the page done, and you read it again, only to find that NOW you see a mistake, you think ‘i’m not about to go rip my page up that has already been glue sticked. so screw it. ok, our addresses are...
