UNSAFEWAY
So I'm cruising out of Safeway in
Kings Beach the other night on my
way to go grub when what do I spy?
The latest ish de Thrasher. Well, I
stop to gape for a second and put
down the newly acquired edibles.
Oh, hey, there's lan, yeah, and
Gwar, too. Being a mere mortal with
nothing to do and no loose coin, I
slow the pace and leisurely scan the
zine cover-to-cover. Snowboard
pics, Grosso, a worked S.F., and
Elvira. Ah, I'm done, I'm stoked, time
to go home and board the brain after
a skarf-fest. Hey! Where are my flip-
pin' groceries? I've been swindled!
And I thought I was being clever by
not buying the mag. Well, I paid the
price this time around.

Who the hell is Z-ed? You know,
the dude who answered the first let-
ter in the July Mail Drop. Is it T-ed's
evil twin or what? Bring back
Puszone!

Sorry, Z-ed's identity is top secret. I
can tell you to keep your eyes open
for Puszone Jr., coming soon. T-ed
ENVIRONMENTALLY
RE-STARTED
I noticed that my latest issue of
Thrasher was printed on 100%
recyclable material. This is abso-
lutely wonderful! But I would like you
to consider using 100% or partially
recycled material. This way we could
close the circle. Recycled materials
must be used to save anything we
can because everything is at stake.
Keep the faith. Earth First!

We're working on it. We also suggest
that everyone revert back to clay
wheels. f-ed
REBELLION HELLION
I'm a fifteen-year-old girl and I love
to skate. My parents think skaters
are a bunch of loud, obnoxious,
messy, anti-authoritarian slobs, so
my mom will not let me have my
skate back. I just wanted to tell all
those other skaters with pissed off
parents, don't give up. Keep skating
alive.

P.S. My mom saw this letter before
I mailed it and gave me back my
board. I was stoked.
Wait till she sees my nasty reply-
it's in the mail. T-ed
TIMBER
A few days ago my friend and I
were doing cavemans on a
neighbor's handrail for about ten
minutes. A lady came out and yell-
ed at us, so we left. The next day she
went over to my house and told my
mother we chopped down her tree
with our skateboards. I was just
wondering, how can you chop down
a tree with a skateboard?

Axe-le stalls maybe? By the way, the
proper term is "cavepersons." T-ed
PLATE AND DESTROY
Is that the new 1990 com-
memorative skateboarding plate
sold for a limited-time-only that I
spotted in June's Skarfing Material?

Yep, and next month we'll feature
hand-painted porcelain statuettes of

TO SID, WITH LOVE
What's your problem, T-ed? In
your June issue you made fun of Sid
Vicious. That pisses me off! You piss
me off anyway. We ask for help and
you give your smart-ass remarks. I
quit buying this book because of
you. T-ed, you suck!

So now you borrow this book? T-ed
SECRETARY OF SKATE
Last Wednesday most of the skate
fiends in this area held a protest at
City Hall. It seems these "council-
persons" are being assholes again.
They require special ramp permits.
The problem is, everyone who has
applied has been turned down simp-
ly because they're skaters who want
to build mini-ramps in their own
backyards. But even though their
permit applications were denied,
anyone who steps onto an un-
permitted ramp gets a $100 fine. But
I guess that's a councilperson's
logic. We figured the only way to set
them straight and open their eyes
