"On the 15th of January at TEI University in Thessaloniki, Greece about 15 people interrupted a planned experiment on a living animal. Professor and students as well were tying to hide the fact that any experiments were going on. But pushed by 15 masked people, the professor unlocked the lab and liberators took from it 4 lab rats. After that he was punched and spit on by several people. This is just the beginning."

anonymous communique:
"FedEx director Stephen Parrot was the latest contestant on Pimp My Ride - ALF special. Unfortunately, as we finished sorting out his banging new tyres, and fading out his paint job - with acid - Stephen didn't seem very pleased with the result. What a pity. His pitiful screams filled the air as we vanished into the night. Don't like it Stephen? You know what to do, FedEx are number one courier for HLS.
