When duty calls, you can’t always wait for a "restroom"; and when inspiration strikes, you can’t always wait for a "publication date." Below are sNews issues and one-pagers we’ve circulated between issues over the last few years.

All about the apparently pervasive but little-publicized organization known as the Worldwide Jewish Conspiracy.

Class of 2006 Remains Very, Very Confused
by Ilya Kushnirsky '01
According to the Office of the Registrar, only four of the incoming freshmen have registered for classes, and almost a third of them still haven’t arrived on campus. "Turnout has been less than ideal," admits a spokesman, "but we’re still expecting to get fat off the late registration fees."

The Yale Journal for Resumé Padding
by Jules Lipoff '03 and Mollie Wilson '03
The YJRP is the only campus publication to openly admit that it exists not for the gratification of the reading public, but for the sole purpose of giving responsible-sounding titles to a number of lazy, marginally-affiliated students.

Are Transfer Students Taking Over?
by Adrian Bonenberger '02
Getting into Yale is hard, but getting into Yale as a transfer student? That’s absurd.

Carroll’s CD Shop On Broadway is Closing Forever
by Ian Dallas '00

A Coarse Critique

A Letter from Ginsberg

From Russia with Love
by Mollie Wilson '03
Once upon a time, as I was working in the stacks of Sterling Memorial Library, I came across a wonderful book of Russian Greeting Cards. After perusing its pages and being irreparably scarred by what I found, I naturally decided I had to share my favorites with you.

Valentine's Day with the Record
Here's a three-part Weekly to prove our undying love for you, our reader.

Customizable Valentine's Day Greeting
by David Fabricant '04
The Record's Valentine's Day message service allowed Yalies to send Valentine's Day messages to their fellow students. Those customers who were too lazy to write their own messages could fill out this shameless MadLibs pastiche instead.

Instructions for Self-Gratification
by David Reiman '05
The Record's Valentine's Day service also let certain perverse Yalies send "Self-Gratification Kits" to their sexually frustrated friends. Each kit included stimulating images, a tube of lubricant, a Kleenex, and these instructions.

The War on Terrorism: Updates from the AP Wire
by Sarah Pearce '05
Taliban officials have signaled to the United States that they are unsure of the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden. "We can't figure out what happened," said the official communiqué. "Our guys were guarding his cave, they went out for five minutes to get a sandwich - five minutes! - and when they came back, he was gone."

A General Tso Special
by Tony Lazenka '03
But for the past few months something new has caught Tso's eye: the eccentric Kansu princess Miao, who's just recently had a spat with her father and's now fled to the corridor cliffs. Love-struck, Tso can't wait for some unforeseen sitzkrieg to finally meet her, so his current victory is to communicate to her through his messenger pigeons. Like some lazy scheme of Hermes, soon gifts ascend from Tso's messages, and then one day, in a glorious train of eighty-four pigeons, Tso ascends himself.

Student Buys T-Shirt at Urban Outfitters, Now Too Self-Conscious to Wear It
by Jack Kukoda '02
NEW HAVEN - A recent trip to Urban Outfitters ended in tragedy Monday for Josh Blakely, CC ‘03. "When I first went into Urban, I was really excited," said Josh. "The clothes there reminded me of the funky styles I saw in New York City's East Village when I interned for Goldman Sachs last summer. I figured that if I bought some clothes there people would think I was an authentic tragically hip bohemian guy." Boy, was he wrong.

My Pal Chopin
by Tony Lazenka '03
Mom thought it'd be nice if I took Chopin to see the San Francisco orchestra movie at the movie theater. Chopin thought the first song was crap so we snuck into Captain Infinity instead. There was only the last part where Captain Infinity takes a rocket ship into space where it would continue next week, but Chopin said the score from that part was the best.

Yale College Teacher Recommendation
Acquired by David Fabricant '04
I love working in Yale's admissions office because I get to read applicants' personal essays and recommendation letters. Here's a particularly hilarious recommendation that I swiped from the Class of '05 file.

Carlin recently visited the Yale campus for a Master’s Tea co-sponsored by the Record and Pierson College.

Misc. America
by Michael Sloan '02
For those who think that the Miss America pageant is nothing more than out-dated, sexist show-boating, you are wrong.

The Ballasted Orchestra
by Tony Lazenka '03
In May 1937, seventeen nervous students at the Gottingen Conservatory were set to become "the world's first launched chamber group," until each member and instrument in the ensemble became a part of the worst catastrophe the dirigible industry had known.

The Record's New Site – The Staff Reacts
by The Record staff
I don’t need to get some god-damned computer to read my humor for me. I can read, you know. What? You don’t believe me, because you’re reading this on a computer? Look, I wrote this with pen and paper; I didn’t get some computer to do it for me.
