Issue 015 --- KRaD, The OffiCiaL ELiTE-0, K-NeeT-0 'ZiNE PreSeNtS: -------- --_-> KRaD <-_-- [Brought to you in Surround HTML, where available] K0MPiLaTiON: Panther Modern (KRaD/OWANW!) pmodern@xln.com --------------------------------------------------------- #(#(#(#(#(#(# (#(#(# NeeTo ELiTEo *#*#*#*#*#*#* I got some E-Mail one day, and was very surprised to find that it contained a question for me, regarding the source of the essense of ELiTE thought. I was taken aback by such an obviously brilliant question as to the existance of an ELiTE diety, that I immediately consulted my online Greek Mythology reference. It was not easy to find what I was looking for. It took several hours of reading, and as I am not too proficient in that art so far, it was a true strain on my delicate mind. However, at the end of the proverbial tunnel lies the answer to all questions, and my answer was short, but extremely enlightening. Yes, I found it. The diety to warez. Searching through the dusty archives, I came across such greats as Zeus, the god of Thunder, Athena, the goddess of War, Posiedon, the god of the Sea, and many others. However, I could not, on the surface, find any reference to what I sought, the Ancient Source of the Ware. Finally, my eye lit upon a small reference... Amongst the tale of the immortally known Trojan horse, resides a small reference to a certain God, without whom the Horse would have failed... "Odysseus called upon Warezooli, the God of zero-day, and he cried out with great might, such that Warezooli would be torn from his pursuits, and help Odysseus seize the city of Troy! Warezooli came down in a flutter of diskettes, and created for Odysseus a great horse made from finely carved hard drives; a great hollow horse with which to take the city! Odysseus cried out in joy and praised the great Warezooli, without whom the city would have been virtually impenitrable. And the Zero-Day flowed down from Olympus onto Odysseus, thus blessing the great Hero, and Warezooli, being happy, ascended once again into the heavens." Yes, there you have it! Warezooli, the diety to Zero-Day. The Immortal Warezooli, son of the grand Titans of olde. A hidden God all these years, finally revealed to you in true KRaD style! Who else brings you such information as this? I call to you, my Warez Friends! Build a shrine to the all-powerful Warezooli within your abode! Create a dominion where the grand Warezooli may reside, spreading the spirit of Zero-Day throughout the land! Warezooli is not a demanding God, my friends. He requires but a peice of Zero-Day software every day. If you give him a peice of Negative-One-Day, he'll accept it as two day's tithing! If you give him Negative-Fifty-Day, he'll accept it as fifty-one day's tithing! As you can see, Warezooli is an accepting God, wishing only for a shrine, and Zero-Day. Warezooli will look down upon you especially nicely if you are wearing properly stained jeans. Remember next time you bathe in the Zero-Day electronic stream. The Ancient Warezooli is watching! --------------------------------------------------------- ######################################### ## *** A Brief Review of ## ## KRaD *** ## ## By: Jim Romary (jromary@csn.net) ## ######################################### The guy actually knows how to phreak and hacque in real-time modes, thus producing text like we witness on those pages This pre-literate culture may actually be a viable alternative to the already heterogenous, polyglot, roughly mainstream society about which we rant and rave daily. Who is to say? The argot is certainly not economical, as the antecedant 'zine language originally intended, because economy typically uses *fewer* phonemes, not more. They have turned a perhaps valid attempt at rapid electronic communication into an inpenetrable (art)form. Kind of like usenet.

I am not really into Warez, I'm a stupid h/p dood, so I'm just learning.. Do you think I have the potential? I want to get out of this H/P shit. Here's my story.. I was in a CO last night looking at all the pretty blinking lights, and I thought to myself.. God.. This sucks. I can't stand this anymore. I mean, Phreaking is just so unfullfilling! What do I get out of it? Well, besides K0dEzZzZZZZzzzZZzZZZ! So, I walked outside to a midswitch, and noticed.. H3Y! ThIz LuUkZ KyNDA lYkE Th3 InSiD3 oV My cUmP3wTer aT H0Me. Ew3 kN0, DaDdys P4cKaRd B3Ll! So, I ran home and called Hacker's Haven.. I was mulling through the files and saw a 'zine called KRAD. KRAD! I said. A Zine called KRAD! It was weird.. I never had these thoughts going through my mind before.. And these words.. It was like I was speaking in tongues! Slowly, names of boards and numbers began materializing in my head.. DPAMF! Bubblegum Crisis! I tried typing, bUt Sh1t LyKe Th1S K3Pt HaPPeNinG! I L00KeD aT My HaNDz! Th3y L00kEd s0 31337! I said to myself.. C0uLD eYe ReAlLY B3 b3c0MiNG 3133t!?!?! So, I decided to test it.. I threw my car keys aside, and got my old ten-speed out of the attic. I turned on the blinker on the back of the bike, and made sure my little bell on the handle worked. I began to ride. I knew I was king of the road right away. tHis S3XeE3e 12 Y3Ar 0Ld l00K3d 4t M333! Wh0A! I sAiD! I'm 31337! eYe PiCKEd My NoZe And FlIck3D It Int0 Th3 4iR wItH Gl33! I KneW It! eYe Kn3W It!!

Then I got hit by a mack truck on I-25 and woke up. It was all a dream. I was still in the CO, and a USWEST employee was standing above me making funny noises saying "pwetty. can I dake him home momee? can i pweez? i gotta go pee pee. Can you hewp me?" He grabbed his crotch and walked away. So, here I am. Writing to you. What I'd like to know is this.. Do I have the stuff it takes? To hell with hacking and phreaking. I don't even remember that shit. (Ring and tip? That's the name of a cock ring store, right?) I want to be a WaReZ KiDDie! Help me please, KRAD. I've already sacrificed my whole family to WarEzooLi.. And there is no turning back.. **# Reply #** I am truely touched by your story. It reminds me of this one time, when I began my quest for Zero-Day. I saw myself standing on a bridge, looking out over a sea of floppy disks. It felt as though I were looking into a monitor, even though I was not. I felt as though I was typing even though I was not. Suddenly, I felt a strange sensation going through me. I realized that my life's purpose was simple: Completion of the Zero-Day mission. The quest for the Zeroest-Day warez on earth. I knew from then on that my life had a purpose, that I would not be forever doomed to a life of one-day rules, when my mind demanded the Zero-Day way of life! Yes! I dedicated my very exitance to the Zero-Day, knowing that it would guide me upon the right path! Yes, and at that very point, I felt the surge go through me, the surge of the spirit that's known only as Zero-Day! I became the embodiment, the Kourrier Surpreme, the transcending Zero-Day warrior! I am glad to help others upon this, the true path of knowledge and inner light. Warezooli Speed. --------------------------------------------------------- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %% 1-daY? No Way! %% %% A modern Fable. %% %% by: %% %% muwt@uxa.ecn.bgu.edu's %% %% Friend %% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% A frend of mine rote this: The uther day I was kouryink round, cops and shit were caLLing me names Like 1-day and stuff. I hated it. I Looked at myseLf and noticed that my 0-day cLothes had r0tted into cLothes that a 0-day kourier wouLd not ware. I thought my dazes as a kourier were over. My name was runed. I can stiLL hear them screaming "Hey 1-day". LukLy I had a cupLe of spare disks on me fuLL of -3-day warez. I showed them to the cops and they gave me some neat braceLets and put me in this car without any handLes on the dors. Beink the 0-day kind of guy that I am, I got beat up and my cLothes were bLoody again. One of the friendLy oficers aLso offered to ram his 'biLLy cLub' up my ass. I bent over and he Lost his d0nuts. I toLd him he was 3-day. I next found out that cLub was good for more than one thing. When I woke up my -3-day were gone and the SPA was at my house. I didn't know they couLd take my puter. I figgered it wouLd not matter since my -3-day had aged to 1-day. I toLd them "hey.. I can get you some 0-day, and I wiLL Let you be kouriers". I gave them some free kopies of KRAD and showed them where to find the stuff about bing a kourier. I evin got to show them how to make ther genes bLoody. We ended up goink to a warez store and they got some 0-day. They are not yet true 0-day but they are workink on it. I think they wiLL be 0|< in a m0nth or sew. I even showed them how to mess with antz and gave them some of my fLyz. I even got my puter back and they cLeaned it off so I couLd fiLL it with 0-day! The moraL of this story is -- whiLe kouryink ... don't Let them caLL you 1-day. --------------------------------------------------------- *)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(* *)#(* The KouRRiEr'Z GuiDE To: *)#(* *)#(* The Fourth of July *)#(* *)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(*)#(* By: The Red Power Ranger Hi! I'm The Red Power Ranger, and I have been a kourrier for a long time now! I like to get all of the neeto warez, and I think that warez are kewl. I found out recently through KRaD that warez are free, and that's why they're so kewl! I had never realized this before, but now I know, and I'm glad I do, coz now I'll really love all the warez I get even more than before when I didn't know that I didn't have to pay for them and stuff! KRaD has changed my life, and I hope that it changes your life as well, because my life is now enriched by such things as newer zero-day, and girlz, and kewler fashion statements! OKay, well, the Fourth of July just happened a little while ago, and I learned a lot of stuff that day. It was on my Day of The Month To Go Outside for July, so I was outside. Suddenly, I saw a bright lite in the sky, and I was real scared and said that I didn't want to see a bright lite in the sky coz it makes me real scared! I tried to run, but could only hobble away, but then there was another, even brighter lite in the sky, and I knew I was doomed to see brite lites in the sky, so I screamed, but the twinkie in my mouth blocked my scream from being very loud. I kept hobbling, and saw some kidz playing with matches! Kidz shouldn't do that, coz it's dangerous, and they might burn their fingers! I told them that, and they laughed at me, and then they lit another match, and then this thing flew towards me! It ended up bouncing off of me, but at that point, I was real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real SCARED! Coz there was fire in the sky, and kidz liting matches, and other stuff, and things bouncing off of my stomach! It made me feel real scared, and not nice. I hobbled more, but could not escape the fire in the sky... Finally, I ended up back at my house, and I shut the door! The fire wasn't there anymore, and I wasn't scared any more! I got to my computer, and hugged Him, and told Him that I wouldn't leave him to go outside into the scary world again, or I might get scared again! Then, I called a zero-day board, and they had kewl software, and I downloaded it, and I was real happy. Coz I had zero-day software, and that's kewl! Anyway, this just proves that the fourth of july isn't kewl, with it's kidz lighting matches, and fire in the sky, and other scary stuff that makes me scared! So if I were you, I wouldn't pick the fourth of july as your day to go outside, or you might get scared too! And that wouldn't be nice! --------------------------------------------------------- [Image] ********************** *** KRAD EXCLUSIVE *** ********************** ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## Editorial: ## ## Why wash your clothes? ## ## By: Ty-Rone ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## Ah wuz sittin dere an' thinkin one day, jus bout stuff yah know, when ah thought bout dis theory been runnin through mah hed, bout dem dere clothes washers yah know what ah'm sayin?
