"This tragedy was a product of ignorance, hatred, and an access
to guns. I hope the media's irresponsible finger-pointing doesn't
create more discrimination against kids who look different."
- Demonized rocker Marilyn Manson, who just canceled
5 concerts out of respect for Littleton.

NATO forces knocked out Serbian TV. "That'll teach them. "You commit
genocide? No TV, young man." (Bill Maher)
Princess Diana's former lover James Hewitt is auctioning the newspaper
rights to his memoirs of their affair for over 500,000 pounds ($807,500),
a British newspaper reported Sunday. This makes Hewitt the highest paid
prostitute since Heidi Fleiss. (Jim Rosenberg)
President Clinton today authorized the Pentagon to call as many as 33,000
reservists into active duty for possible combat in Kosovo. Which is kinda
scary-- I mean, do you realize, if that happens, Michael Jackson could be
the only guy in uniform we have left in this country? (Steve Voldseth)

Because of the recent Colorado tragedy, Marilyn Manson has cancelled his
Fresno concert date (no joke). It's just as well, as the City Council was
going to buy up all the tickets so nobody could attend. (no joke; Fresno
Bee, 4-28-99, Section B-1).
