PROFESSION: Punks (white).

HOBBIES: Stocks and bondage; performing with telethon calendar kids for charity.

QUOTE: “Ouch! More! Please! Thank-you! Ouch!”

PROFILE: Having come to terms with the wretched excess of the Sixties, Seventies, porn movies, rock ‘n’ roll, sopers, dopers, and mopefs, these musicians, thespians, and pranksters have found the Way (and it ain’t exactly with J.C.) and are here to show it to you . . . without sparing the rod neither.

BEER: Boy Howdy!
