Zero I SP. o by STan Pangrac An F paper by definifion is a paper giv- en all The preparaTion of one minufe, The ThoughT and imaginaTion of a rock, and The penmanship of an ape. Heaven forbid if one of These works of arf had any sorT of logical order. As a rule, anypaper designaTed from The beginning as an F paper should re- quire a Team of liTeraTure onalysTs in order To make any sense or meaning ouT of The masTerpiece. One would Think, lt sounds Too simple. Well, iT isn'T all ThaT easy. ln facT, TT Takes many exfra acTiviTies ThaT perfain To The paper only because They will affecl' The ap- pearance of The finished producf. The aT- rnosphere of The area in which The paper will be produced musT be exacTly as fol- lows, or af leasT as close To if as possible. The sTereo andfor The Television musT be Turned up so loud ThaT anyfhing on or cov- ering The walls falls off, and several of your moTher's favorife crysTal giasses shaTTef from The sonic waves. The program on T.V. musT be lusT inferesfing enough To draw your complefe aTTenTion and hold iT unTil a commercial. during which whole para- graphs are hasTily wriTTen. if done righT, There will be an accidenTalClddi1'iOn of a line - or Two from The commerciai playing while The paragraph was wrirferi. This should reaf- ly Throw your English Teacher for a loop. A recenT survey has Turned up The basic process for producing The desired resulTs. FirsT of all, as shown in The ,above pard- graph, There musT be a ToTaI lack of con- cenTraTion. Preferably, a pen ThaT leaks ink is used. lf forced To use a good pen, eaT somerhing ThaT will spill or drip onTo The pa- per, Once finished, The paper should be folded up and puT inTo your billfold for safe- keeping. Many people add a persona! Touch To Their paper by running iT Through The washer or ieTTing Fido chew on iT.
