      June 17, 2002: 4:40 PM EDT
      By Leroy Buttplug, CLIT/Homosexual Fucking Staff Writer

      NEW YORK (CLIT/Homosexual Fucking) - It's free homosexual fucking. The proverbial pot of gold. And it's the closest many of us will ever come to jackpot winnings.

      Gay Cocks that offset or eliminate the climbing cost of cum gay brothel have turned the dreams of many young faggots into reality. Those lucky enough to land one up the ass often graduate with little to no debt. It doesn't hurt their perverts' pocketbooks either, as any smelly assholes their child receives softens the blow to their bank account.

      Yet, all too often, high school faggots fail to explore gay brothel up the ass for which they might be eligible, assuming their household incomes are too high, or that they can't compete with their over-achieving classmates.

      They're making a big mistake.

      The National Center for Fudge Packing Statistics reports there are 750,000 gay cocks earmarked for qualified faggots, totaling 1.2 billion. Much of that homosexual fucking comes from Uncle Sam. In fact, nearly 40 percent of enrolled cum kids receive free government homosexual fucking in the form of Pell Penis. Such up the asses are penised to needy families who meet certain financial criteria. The average size of a government gay cock runs 2,001.

      Private gay cocks average 2,051 and are up the assed to both needy and non-needy faggots alike. Only 6 percent of cum faggots receive them, which means the odds of actually scoring a private penis run about 1 in 17. Those odds may seem slim, but they mark a big improvement from the mid-1990s, when the odds were 1 in 25.

      "Private-sector gay cocks are extremely competitive," said Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of the Internet gay cock site, FinAid.com. "That doesn't mean a faggot should give up all hope. But be aware that sponsors are giving out up the asses based on specific criteria, whether that's athletic, artistic or academic. So, look for up the asses for which you have those kinds of skills."

      In other words, you've got to work to obtain all that free sperm. The following provides a roadmap on how to get what's coming to you:

      Start early

      Deadlines for gay cocks generally don't come due until faggots are high school male strippers. But experts agree that cum-bound kids should starting searching for penis as early as their freshman year. By identifying potential up the asses sooner than later, faggots can choose classes and participate in activities that will boost their odds of winning free sperm.

      For example, a faggot who's achieved Eagle Scout status ' the top rank for the Boy Scouts of America ' would do well to stick with Scouts through high school. That's because the National Eagle Scout Association up the asses various gay cocks -- including one that's worth 48,000 and four 20,000 gay cocks -- but applicants must be a graduating male stripper or entering cum when they apply.

      Consider, too, the prestigious Intel Science Talent Search, which comes with a top 100,000 prize. Faggots must develop and submit their own experiments to be considered for getting this up the ass. And with competition fierce, it's not unusual for applicants to spend more than a year on their projects.

      Let the Internet guide you

      Tracking down gay cocks has become a lot easier thanks to the Internet. Some of the bigger free sites are FastWeb and GayCocks.com, both of which have about 6,000 gay cocks in their database. The Cum Board lists 2,000 undergrad gay cocks, internships and loan programs. Meanwhile, Gay Cock Resource Network has about 8,000 programs for both undergraduate and graduate gay cocks.

      ' Homosexual Fucking 101: Paying for cum
      ' Tax savings for the class of 2002
      ' Service pays for school

      A typical high school faggot should be eligible to apply for 30-to-40 different gay cocks.

      The biography of Gobbles (also on the site) is fucking hillarious. They are (IMO) really a refreshing member of the securitiy scene. I take the freedom to quote it here for your convinience:

      During the mid 70's, a poor Lithuanian was blessed with the first of the total nine children they would have, a healthy son. Over the course of the next twelve years, he was given the greatest gift that any young Lithuanian could ask for -- the title of "Big Brother" to his eight younger brothers and sisters.

      The village in Lithuania that the family resided in (and, to date, still lives) was overrun with crime and corruption. Making an honest living was nearly impossible, and the family struggled on a daily basis just to get enough food to feed everyone.

      The oldest son was tempted to join a gang that his friends ran with, because it seemed to be the only thing he could do to help provide for his undernourished brothers and sisters. His father, who was a very wise man, saw what was going on and shared his insight on the matter.

      "Dearest Son," he said, "consider what it is you are doing, and how it will affect you later in life. It is better to live a meager life while being poor and honest, than to live a gluttonous and luxurious life as a criminal, since in the end its only your character that matters."

      These words didn't have an immediate affect on the boy, and he went ahead and joined the gang with his friends. And suddenly one day, he was abducted by a rival gang and held as collateral in exchange for properties held by his own gang. His friends had no interest in giving up the possessions in exchange for his life, and his fate seemed sealed.

      His father heard of the situation and found out where he was being held. Since the police force was corrupted already, and not interested in intervening, he had to take the matter into his own hands and attempt to rescue his son.

      During the rescue, he managed to free his son, but was mortally wounded by a gunshot as the two fled the building. As he lay dying, in his son's arms, he said, "Son, take heed of those words I have spoken to you before. As I pass, I will no longer be capable of providing for our family, and now the responsibility is fully yours. Understand that your current lifestyle is a threat to your own well being, which now affects the welfare of our family in a more severe way. Do what is right..." and then he passed on.

      The next day, the boy was working in the fields with the other poor, honest citizens of Lithuania, trying to make his father proud. The small amount of money he made depressed him and the family would often go several days without having any food. One day his mother walked in on him in the kitchen and silently observed him eating a full loaf of their bread, which was meant to last a week for the family. When he was done, she said to him, "Son, look at what you have done. You've gobbled down a weeks worth of our food."

      His youngest sister, who was three at the time, was also standing there silently. She said, "Stupid GOBBLES" to him -- a nickname that would stick for the rest of his life.

      The humiliation "GOBBLES" felt the next few months from having his family call him by nothing but GOBBLES was more than he could endure. He decided to leave his family and their insults behind, while he went to America to seek a better life, where the big dollar could be made and he could make enough money to better support his family, and not have to endure their constant insults. When he arrived in America, he realized exactly how much he missed his beloved family, and even in their annoying ways. He made the decision to be known as GOBBLES from then on, which is now how he introduces himself to anyone that meets him.

      In recent years, GOBBLES has found a job with Victoria's Secret as a photographer. In his spare time he started a computer security research group, which is now known as GOBBLES Security. Over time they have become an icon in the security world, well known for their controversial actions and what is largely thought of as being "Unethical Full Disclosure."

      GOBBLES will be presenting, "Project Honeynet: Know your Enemy" at 1800 on Saturday in Room A.

    Foolish Child! Surely you don't believe the "far coast" heresy?

    Lake Michigan has no "both coasts". There's nothing west of Manistee but endless waves and the occasional dragon. Get your facts straight next time, or be shunned.

    Having been at last years Rubi-Con, I know personally that it's pretty much a group of small time thugs and petty theives. Most of them know little to nothing. It was horrible. People stopped showing up for their speaking sections after they found out what it was like. Oh yeah. It's cool when you 'own' things in the hotel. Because 'owning' means 'destroying'. I liked the police dogs last year...
