So the other day, there was this girl in one of my classes.  And she was wearing a pair of pants that she had let a lot of people write on.  You know the kind.  They look crazy, but somehow not tacky…  Anyway, this girl turned, and then I saw it.  

Someone had written…

“THAT GIRL THINKS SHE’S THE QUEEN OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

I GOT NEWS FOR YOU– SHE IS!”

ETC.  We ALL know the rest.  ”WHO WROTE THAT?!”  I got really excited.  Was there someone else in my school who knew who Bikini Kill was?  Was there another Riot Grrrl around whom I had been unaware of??  We could start a zine and discuss stuff and it would be so grrreat– but who was it?

I was dying to know.

“Idonno,” she said, “Some girl at Jesus Camp, I think.”

“That is, like, eight different kinds of dissappointing.”
