Whatever happened to Now You Know issue 13?

Now You Know issue 13 is still in the pipeline, but won't be published until sufficient material of a suitable quality has been collected and collated.
Writers are invited to submit their work for this issue until 31st January 2007. We are inviting the usual collection of editorial, poems, short stories, features, fun stuff and news items pertaining to the following subjects:
Frugal Living
Alternative health
Conspiracy
Readers' letters
Scottish travel
Science news
The Internet
 
Please note that the publishing date has been extended owing to lack of suitable material and NOT because NYK is no more. We hope to have edition 13 in print by March 2007.
 
Now You Know :)

Well howdy doody folks.

I am in a surreal mood just now but so far things have been annoying me somewhat so I will vent my anger on this here board.

Firstly. Women drivers!!! Why? Why allow a being with no spacial awareness or consideration for anyone but themselves to control which in short is a weapon? The reason women have cheaper car insurance beggars belief. Maybe they have cheaper insurance because they get up in arms avout "sexist" pigs so therefore pull the discrimination card and get what they want. Women driving 4x4 vehicles is worse. They cant drive a fiesta properly so why allow them into a gas guzzler? These things are stronger than your 1400 spin washing machine and your 2000w dyson hoovers so DO NOT TOUCH THE BLOODY THINGS.

Also, the government are set to lose £16 billion in revenue and tax now that drink and ciggies are available online duty free. Good news? In the short term yes. Long term? Not so sure. I mean Tory Blair and Gordon "I will be better than tony" Brown are set to introduce a pay as you drive tax for motorists. Funny that they announce it shortly before the ciggies thing eh? Anyhow with that £16 billion being taken from the governments piggy bank they will no doubt take it from another one. We get screwed left, right and centre by these shower of fuckers. Do you think they will pay for their miles on the road? Will they fuck. Christ, they cant even pay a fucking phone bill for 5 years.

It's that time of year again where suicides rise by 15%. Christmas. Or as I like to call it now CristMESS. Is it me or does it seem to be earlier and earlier every year? Matalan, the high street retailer, had their decorations and stock on display in september, before halloween and Guy Fawkes night. When I asked a kind assistant why? She said "Head office think its the right time." To which I replied "Oh right, so if you could point me in the direction of your Easter Eggs I will be on my way." She looked at me as if I had found her rampant rabbit in her knicker drawer.

I hate weans too. I am a father and I love my boy more than life its self. I hate everyone elses weans. Fucking mutants.

I hate the old too. When I am old I want put in a home so I can sit and piss and shit myself all day and have someone clean me up and I can also grope the nurses. I want to be kept out the way. Not like the old cow who asked nae demanded that she sit where I was on a bus the other day. My son was in his push chair and I was on my way to the garage to pick my car up and this old coffin dodger said "move son!" I said "Eh no i dont think so." She didnt like it and said to the driver. He never did anything coz i went to school woth him and he is a wee poof anyway. She said she has a back problem and needs the legroom so i told her to sit in the aisle. All the leg room she wants. SHe then retorted something like how she fought for this country so I said "Aye and look at the fuckin state of it."

Anyway folks its been a wee while. I've had ma rant i feel better but not because i want to.

oh aye and if anyone wants me to write for them get in touch as the book things i did was a con some old bastard conned me out of £1100 and i am still un published. i can be contacted on 01236 609968 or via carrier pigeon.

YOU GOT CONNED?????????????

Email me the details of this alleged con artist please, I'd be interested in seeing just what and how they have managed to con YOU out of money. And, I still haven't received the copy of the manuscript you promised me, so email me that too. 2007 is a brand new year and I'm sure that this set-back won't stop you writing.

Susan

as I dont know your email address susan i will briefly surmise here. I was to pay for publishing costs. So this dude told me. Anyway, he was good you know? talked the talk and even had an office in edinburgh. Said I would have to pay for publishing etc and as he had contacts I would be successful and he would give me an advance on the first book. So like a cock I believed it all and handed £1300 to him. He handed me £200 back as a goodwill gesture so was duped again. Told me I was going to do a book tour and all that shite then BANG nothing his phone was dead no one at the office block knew anything about him or where he had gone to. The police are on the case but you know what they are like. So thats a brief story of what happened. Email me susan and I will email you back with the manuscript and a more detailed account of what happened. john_d_mcdade@hotmail.co.uk
