Reader,

Naked Asian Aces Caleulus big brother,

we just got the latest issue today and read the Pimps to the Pros article in the News ... we see that the video was postponed until a later date and would like to be the first to volunteer for the job and any other stunt cock jobs that arise in the future . so tell Angela Rave at Cream that she can always have at least three skater stunt cocks to count on... your loyal readers, Dustin, Brad, and Noah [email protected] PS. Noah has experience (being an on set stunt cock that was never used)

‘The Sneaky Firemen in the Shadows Big Brother, Are names are Doug and Doug. We have been boarding about four years. Were both from Orlando Florida, we both got into some serious shit that they fucking sent our asses to military school and its a bunch of bull shit

‘we cant skate and people diss us for skating here. So we got this plan to burn down the fucking school, but we don't know how to do it. So we thought

that we would ask the experts. We don't care how fucked up your plans are, we just need something to scare the shit out of all the fagets atthisschool! Doug and Doug CulverMilitary Academy South Bend, IN

Idon't care if you burn your school down, but when the firemen come to res‘cue you, run like hell. Theyre a bunch ofperverts, andif they catch you, they'l tty to wrap you up in blankets and snuggle with you. Paramedics are even worse. When they rip your clothes off to check your injuries, you'll most likely be getting a finger shoved up your ass and a penis tugging —Chris

Muy Gustar Honbres Durmientes Dear Big Brother: My friend Bob and| like your magazine. | personally think it's really funny, interesting, and at times disturbing; but that's cool too and|like it. Anyway, the reason | am writing is this: | just read the December issue Pancho Moler on the cover; after seeing what you guys did to Steve Black's

face with a marker and to the “Jack and a fork” guy, | was hoping you could give'me some pointers. See we know this other guy who's a real asshole, and at parties he likes to get really drunk and pass out, Bob and | (Larry) would like to exploit this to make as big an ass out of him as possible. Any tips you could give us on things we could do to him would be greatly appreted. Bob and |will take lots of photos and send youafollow-up letter to

prove how much we learned. Thanks!

Larry Shomar San Juan, PR

The other day this guy from Puerto Rico bought me some beer while | was waiting for my friends. The guy was like 50 years old, and | started realizing that he was walking on the funny side of town, ifyou know what I mean. During my second beer, | went outside to see if my friends had shown up yet, and | think he put Ruffinal (the date-rape drug!) in my drink. He told me that my friends weren't showing up, and we should go drink more somewhere else. | felt kind of loopy, but thanks to my experience with drugs, | was able to identify the foreign substance and escape.—Chris

Why would they want you guys? Youre not even pros! On top of that, youre probably Asian. How often do you see an Asian man in a porno movie? | don't ‘mean to sound like a racist, but nobody needs to see that kind of garbage. If you are in the movie, you should only be seen in the background performing flying karate kicks and completing math problems.—Chris

Psychopathic Christians Who the Girls at School Don’t Like Dear Chris, J was reading the November issue and was sadend and mad to see you putting down the Bible. First of all God is refering to how you are to be ci cumcised to show that you reconized him and his power. He is not a sadistic and perverted fellow, What you need is to read the Bible and see that if you don't love and belive in God your life is dead already. You say burn the Bible and curse God to show that he cant control you and to make his heart burn. Well | wish you @ good life in hell, Joel 2: 1-2 is a good scripture. It will tell you what will happen to you. Bill K Kerman, CA

I youre such a good Christian, why the hell are you reading this magazine?! Is it one of your secret, naughty things that you hide underneath your bed with ‘your barbells and lotions? Why are you judging me anyway? As a Christian, you're supposed to love me and accept me and let God be the judge. If God could talk, He would probably call you a freak and yell at you for trying to do His job for Him. | was just joking around, but you, you're serious. It looks like you're the one who will be going to hell!—Chris.

Oedipal Gomplexities Dear Big Brother,

''m writing in regards of all these fucked up moms who read their son's magazine. That pisses me off when you can't have a mag ‘cause it has cuss words, drugs, and porno. Fuck them! Those moms are so fucking retarded | wish | could kic all their asses. | don’t fucking care if a mag has cuss words and porno, | read it for the skateboarding. Don’t gimme that shit:"! was reading my son's magazine, when | saw . ” Fuck you! | just want to say fuck you to all moms who are being fags about magazines. Including my fucking, shit licking, fingerbanging, vagina sucking mom. Fuck you allll! Skateboard, Kick rollerblader’s asses, Ask for money, Tell moms to "FUCK OFF” our magazine, Eager to be flashed, Read Big Brother magazine. James Lemon Roseville, CA

James, you're out of your fuckin’mind.—Chris

Mystical Reader Stands Up for Show and Tell

Beer Big Bro, |live in this gay-ass richie town where all anyone cares about is money and fuckin’ religion. What the hell? There's maybe afew of us who could give a fuck less and are down w/ nothing but sk8ting and music. These dumbass

religious freaks are just insecure about themselves. That's all religion is, a big set of rules to bounce off of. | went w/ my friend to this Christian church youth group type thing to sk8 and we skated for about 10% of the time, which pissed me off, The rest was preaching and slow, godly, horrible music. ‘The whole time | thought to myself, how can anyone get stoked on this?? ‘The big thing that the coo! kids at my school are doing is wearing these

bracelets that say W.W.J.D.? Which means What Would Jesus Do? Complete bulishit. Me and Jesus were and are 2 seperate individuals. What he'd have and what I'd have done in a given situation are gonna be different, more than

likely. People don't realized it, but a religious man is a man more or less free of moral choice. Hell, read A Clockwork Orange! With drugs and the “new

technique" Alex, ex-murderer turned into aslave of his own emotions, A thorough Christian, Sex, music, art and violence were all sinful and whenever he

‘came into contact w/ any of that he felt like puking. After all Christianity says

that sexual intercourse is a sin doesn't it? Fuck that I'll shagg if | wanna. So to all you children of god or bog or whatever, slooshy me when|say to rebel.

Go against what your pee and em have told you and become not atheist, but religiously independent. Believe that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, and that there is no such thing as death, heaven or hell. Life is but a dream in the imagination of ourselves. Believe in reincarnation.

That's what really happens. We as humans are recycled like soda cans, souls carry on from one vehicle to the next to ruin or accomplish what he/she sees fit, all throughout time. And you can kiss my sharries. Good night. lan Summers Carmel, IN

Your letter made me think of poor Bill K. from Kerman, California, Like many reborn Christians, he is doomed to become the ball monitor at his local junior high school. When the boys are changing, he will stroll through the locket room, staring at them and patting the boys on their backs. He will talk to theit penises, and none of the parents or teachers will suspectathing because he fs @ youth pastor. At bedtime, he will sit up in bed, crying and whipping himseli in shame.—Chris

“Metaluma’? She is. This may be the closest park to San Francisco—only 20 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge (the red one that everybody drives over, parks and then walks from one end to the other and then back). I's fun. Besides one ill-placed handrailing, this is a good park. 'd heard that the original plans the skaters drew up were way better, but they were ignored by the jackass who designed the park. =
