RECENT ADDITIONS:

~4/2/02~

At long last... the "How Emo Are You?" quiz from Issue #8 is online. Eventually we hope to have an interactive version of the quiz on the site, but for now you'll have to do the math the old fashioned way. Print it out and quiz all your crybaby friends...

Chuck Firebomb's Nihilistic Minute is now back online, and, in light of recent events around the world, Chuck wishes to remind the public that at no point has he ever advocated killing civillians.

Also, the launch of Invisible Strand has been put on indefinite hiatus. In the meantime, keep an eye on the NIMBY page to see what new project our gang of miscreants may or may not be up to. (One word: Hoboes.)

~9/17/01~

Chuck Firebomb's Nihilistic Minute is observing a "moment of silence," out of respect for those killed in the recent World Trade Center and Pentagon terrorist attacks. This action is being taken at the request of the column's creator, and not due to any complaints or other outside influence. The column will return to NIMBY in the near future.

All of us at NIMBY wish to express our condolences to all those affected by these terrible attacks.
