 What is Rick doing in Moby's Bathroom?
4/18/02 ... Admittedly we here at the "DO" have the attention span of a hypoglycemic Chihuahua on crack, but even our ears "pricked" up when we heard the rumor that Rick may be making an appearance in the new Moby video, "We Are All Made of Stars". After what seemed like 500 different lewd variations of "Moby Rick" made the rounds through the office, we set out to learn the truth. Using our exhaustive investigative resources, (in other words we waited 'til somebody else posted it to the List), we discovered that not only wasn't Rick in the video, but the person featured in the bathroom scene turns out to be none other than Moby in a "Rick Springfield" wig! 

Now, while we are sure that Moby is an accomplished musician in his own right and with no disrespect intended, can we just say that he exudes all the raw masculinity of a Skittles Commercial. The mere idea that in any realm of existence he could be confused with Da Man leaves us totally scratching our noggins and making that face your dog makes when you pretend to throw the ball and then hide it behind your back. Even more of a revelation is the idea that somewhere, someone is actually manufacturing a "Rick Springfield" wig that can magically transform any member of the "Y" Chromosome persuasion into a Doppelganger of Rick Studley! We hope Derek is paying attention as this little item could be worth it's weight in Shipping and Handling! Right ladies????

Bunz Index:
The Googers index was up this week, but Gooters showed a distinct downturn. According to our doctor, this happens to everybody occasionally and is like totally nothing to be ashamed of!
Useless True Facts:
P.T.Barnum never actually wore leather pants, although he did once claim to have a really BIG dragon!

Chaos Reins at "Dragon Observer" Offices!
4/18/02 ... A few weeks ago quite out of the blue all of these peeps showed up at our midtown office "claiming" to be RLS Fan Club Members and wanting us to hook them up with NP Tix! We finally referred them all to the RLS EList ... we did good, .... right?		 The guy on the right was actually looking for Sherry Stringfield!
"Who's Seen My Nekkid Butt" Gag Now a Certified Classic!  4/18/02... This week saw the 1 millionth retelling to this now Classic banter, a perennial favorite amongst Rick Fans worldwide! It is believed that the landmark was reached last Friday night in an AOL Private Chatroom. It is believed that the unknown Chat Respondent replied with the obligatory comeback,  "LOL"! 
Watch out for Concert Flu Season! 4/18/02 ... Yes, it's that time of year again when the blooming of fresh concert pix of Da Man results in a new round of *Coughs*, *Snorts*, *Thuds*, and persistent *Drooling*! Many also report unexplained "Hot Flashes" that necessitate multiple cold showers. Local Physician, Noah Drake has Divas waiting in line to be seen with none showing signs of relief any time soon! "I've really got my hands FULL" Drake confided, "But I am committed to giving each of these ladies as much TLC as I can". *[Editors note - At this point our "DO" Reporter succumbed, falling into the Doctor's arms and was unable to complete the interview.]  But Ma'am I am only allowed to do one breast exam per visit!

From the Desk of the Editor

* In a effort to maintain what pithy literary standards we laughingly pass off as journalism here at the "DO" we are forced to admit that our original idea of posting a new issue every week may have been a tad on the ambitious side. Hereafter,  we will try to update regularly, but on a less restrictive timetable as to allow the "DO" to remain fresh and creative.


* By popular demand we have now added an Archive of past "DO" Issues as we feebly attempt to recapture our past glory. Enjoy!

* Diva's Corner has been added to the "DO" as a showcase for your stuff! We wanted to showcase Rick's "stuff"  but Geocities has a policy about that sorta thing ... Dammit!

Corrections

* Our recent RLS EList posts:

  • "What if Rick Could Fly?",
  • "FYI: The Nutritional Value of Leather!",
  • "Is this a bad time to bring up Snausages?",
  • "Re: How much  Rick wood could a ... "
  • "BTW what does BTW mean?"

    • ... were clearly mindless Spam! Sometimes we just seem to fall in love with the sound of our own keyboard. (4/18)

    * Many Readers complained that when they opened the last issue in their Web Browser about 100 of those annoying subscription cards came falling outta their Floppy Drive onto the floor. We confess that we are Whores of Capitalism! (4/18)
    PezGirl Announces Retirement from BoDee's Funhouse!

    (4/18/02) ... In a surprise announcement this week beloved personality, PezGirl, announced her retirement from her gig as Tourguide of BoDee's Funhouse! Insiders report that while her departure comes as a complete shock to all, rumors had been circulating since the hostile "Dragon Observer" takeover and the introduction of Navigation Bars to the site. 

    Those close to PezGirl have been quoted as saying that she has sought for sometime to return to her previous position as a Candy Spokesman/ Theater Usher and hopes to wed her longtime beau, Mr. Goodbar soon, (with rumors of their own little "Milk Dud" due to arrive later this year). PezGirl has enjoyed her own celebrity since the late 1950's and is known by her infectious smile, bubbly personality, and her infamous love of candy goiters!

    Diva's Corner 
    In this Issue Special Human Affairs Correspondent, Mufi (aka River Wolfi), offers up her own unique take on the "RLS Concert Foreplay".
    I've noticed a curious 12 step phenomenon in Rickdom concerning concerts ...
    • 1 - Wishing for them, 
    • 2 - Rumors of them, 
    • 3 - Numerous postings of 1. & 2. 
      • Denials of 2. or confirmation to find out about confirmation of 2. 
      • Official denials of 2. 
    • 4 - Skip 3. and get confirmation of 2, 
    • 5 - Skip 1 through 4 and get huge surprise announcement of a concert(s) date(s) and location, 
    • 6. Onslaught of activity on list about ticket sale date (or message board), 
    • 7. Optional, but not always, raffle on list for prime tickets,  
    • 8. Manic ticket sale day - postings of elation and joy or despair and homicidal fantasies about ticket agencies, 
    • 9. Roll calls, 
    • 10. Postings of spare tickets for sale on list, message board and ebay, 
    • 11. Begging for spare ticket(s) three weeks or less to concert date, 
    • 12. The calm before the actual date (when I suspect a few people are meditating, praying or burning incense in hopes of a possible "phone call from concert" date - which ranks higher for many than the h.s. prom did). 
    Postscript - PC's fired up within one hour after concert ends trolling web waters for reports. Oft times includes "first" release pictures from the event (when we all thank a higher Power and Kodak, Fuji or Microsoft digital for high tech pics in an hour)

    Filing this report for possible future use as college paper.............

    (who will do intense study on the flip side of this phenom by 
    actually going to a concert for the first time before summer)!
