               IBFT Syndicate: A New Group for a New Tomorrow 
                                by Snarfblat 
 
In an effort to allow more people to take part in IBFT, we have opened our 
doors to the public.  We are currently taking submissions for a secondary 
project under the IBFT name.  This project will take the form of an 
approximately monthly zine, tentatively titled "I'll Hit You Back" after 
Jane's Addiction's first label.  It will be an outlet for the confusion of 
our generation; a forum in which those who really know what's going on, to 
cry out "why the fuck don't we all just die"; a battlefield for your cocked 
and loaded angst cannons.  The best part of this, aside from finally getting 
yourself heard, is that if we publish you, you are now an official member of 
IBFT/Syndicate. 
 
To apply for membership in IBFT syndicate, fill out the following 
questionnaire and mail it back along with as many writing submissions as you 
want.  If we select you as a member if IBFT Syndicate, we will let you know 
before we publish the first issue of the zine. 
 
And please remember that being in the Syndicate does not mean you are in 
IBFT.  If you ever claim to be "in IBFT", I'll find out where you live and 
stick my finger so far up your mom's ass that it will be way far up there. 
 
Example of how cool you could be:
