From then on, it was just one jump after the other to keep ahead of them. After being hounded for months, I found my way into these mountains, where I have been ever since. I wonder if there can be any fans left in the outside world? Do the Michelists rule the world? Alas, I do not know, and I am getting too old to venture outside. I fear that I shall never know -- never know. # LE ZOMBIE! The only magazine able to out-snide Snide; the Ghouls Ghazette! LE ZOMBIE! Banned from Haiti for spreading Black FooGhu!
