Coppertone GirlI’ve just converted my longstanding (circa 1997) literary/arts magazine into a blog format. Also, for the first time, I added Google Analytics, so I can see how people are finding us.

I had imagined young college students back to their dorm rooms from poetry class, women of a certain age with shawls and cups of warm tea and cats and unfinished novels. Instead, well, I’ll let you see the top search results that led people to zineweb.com.

01. “24:7 magazine”
OK. That was me. At least one of the times.

02. goody barrettes
What?

03. girl pulling down bathing suit
Uh…

04. contraband jeans
It’s called Chinatown or, if you’re not in a major city, Ebay.

05. poems on community services
Ah, yes. That famous sub genre. I remember Coleridge’s eloquent take on picking up trash in Hyde Park as penance for his drug conviction.

06. why do babies get boners
A friend of #3?

07. nipple photography
Of the nipple or by the nipple?

08. noises and spasms in lungs after quitting smoking
Hang in there.

09. i vomited in the toilet
Water, aspirin, paper towels, toothpaste and shame.

10. nervous tic mouth opening
Keep it closed?

11. erection at hooters restaurant
I wouldn’t know. I just go there for the wings.

12. babies with boners
#6 foiled again! No answers here, but if you can figure out what’s causing it, and how to bottle it, you could make billions!

    As with Anna Karina, we prefer to remember the U.S.A as she was in the 1960s.
