Well, it happened, but not with trouble. Some people hate the move and some people hate SDM. Ah twell. Just go and see what the hell everyone is bitching about: http://www.disobey.com/sdm/ NEW GHOST SITES (#13): The thirteenth issue of Ghost Sites was released earlier this week. You know what it's like, and it brings you more of the quality rot that you have grown to love sifting through. Amongst the hectic two weeks, Ghost Sites received an award from Cool.com, was mentioned by Bruce Sterling in his Dead Media project, and was reviewed by the Mining Company. Oh yeah, on a small side note, we finally fixed up the spacing problem that was causing the page to look slightly different between the opposing browsers. NEW DEVIL SHAT (#TwentyOne): Hey, Devil Shat is old enough to drink! So, it's kinda a weird issue this week. We had a regular article, but due to a stupid error on Morbus' part, he lost the article about three hours before press time, and had to throw something in there quickly. So, be prepared to read "Senses Modification", a half serious piece about making yourself better. And this is the issue which heralds in G. Nih Ton, one of the disgruntled ex-SDM employees. Read about the Trix Bunny Rabbit. Uh huh. . . . : ; EVERYTHING else and things that are esoteric WEBSHIT? WEBSHIT!: One of the things that Morbus does every so often is look at new websites. See, he gets this search engine that shows him about 300-400 new sites (that he would probably like) every day. He writes down promising sites... when the paper is full, he goes around and looks at them all. He decided to give you his commentary on them. And thus, another stupid little project from Disobey: Webshit. His running commentary on sites he visits as it happens. Wanna copy? There are three issues now, and about 90 more before he can get caught up. WANNABE GOTH AGAIN: Way back in Devil Shat Issue One, we published a small poem from a guy named Wannabe Goth. Well, he seemed to think that we would publish EVERYTHING that he had ever written, which was incorrect... cos, well, most of it just wasn't appropriate for Devil Shat. So, he has decided to work for SDM now, who for some strange reason, decided to publish his turd. Ah twell. What can you do? DESIGNING FOR YOU: Yeah, Disobey has been doing some freelance work for a lot of local businesses within our home town here. Yeah, we have been really busy. Yeah, most of the websites (or the owners) don't like what Disobey does, or what we stand for, but hell, they like our designs and we are cheap. So we get money. Yeah. . . . : ; BLAHBLAHS OF THE WEEK: ( feb 13th - feb 26th ) [Junk Food of the Week]--= Toaster Pastries ---Cheap, Market Basket versions of PopTarts... these things ---are actually damn good right outta the box (ummm... flavor text?). ---All different kinds of flavors... no clear winner this week.

What The Hell of the Week]--= 602,650 ---I guess one of the major reasons we didn't get a lot of work done ---this week was because we rediscovered Wolfenstein 3D. 602,650 points ---after beating Hitler in the Second Encounter.
