New Videos Posted

Thanks to both the new and old BONK! video homies, we not only have Angela Malone’s video from January on the video page now (as well as directly below), but we also have excerpts from the three acts that made up BONK! 8.  Go check them out and be merry.  Enjoy.

A Brief History of Angela Malone’s “Missing” Video

Either because Nicky-Poo can’t seem to post HTML code, or because he can’t navigate his own google account, we apologize for the lateness of this video. Those of you who’ve searched for it through GoogleVideo have already seen it — because it’s been there for two months; but those of you who are too lazy to do anything but click links to the BONK! site probably haven’t. So, for all you lethargic do-nothing beatniks, here’s the video of Angela Malone reading at BONK waaay back in January.

Sincerely,

The Surly Video Guy Who Left Some Months Ago
