John Tido, our editor, took off with Stag's Angels and we haven't seen hide nor pubic hair of them in two weeks. If any of you see Tido, point him toward a phone and dial this number for him—(212) 541-7100. We're very worried. The bastard didn't even have the decency to write this Backstage column before he left. So I have to. I want you to know that I'm not cut from the same cloth as Tido and our Senior Managing Editor, Richard. I don't do drugs. You won't see any photos of me surrounded by naked bimbos. When I was growing up, while all the other kids were blowing up cars and spray painting the gym, my idea of raising hell was getting thrown out of the library for uncontrollable giggling. Most of the women I know have made it with more women than I have. So I provide a kind of moderating influence around here. Take this Ayatollah interview on page 38. When Herb Dunn wrote the piece for us, Tido says, "Let's have a drawing of the Ayatollah reading the Koran while he's screwing a goat." Milner says, "That's too much. Let's can the goat and show him jerking off while reading the Koran with a copy of Stag hidden inside it." I'm listening to this and imagining thousands of angry Iranians surrounding the office, waving their fists and chanting, "Death to Stag!" I talked my fellow editors into an excellent illustration by John Robinette, tastefully done, as we strictly limited the amount of dribbling saliva from Khomeini's mouth. Susan Nero on page 22. The woman has an extremely large chest. Milner wanted to do the opening spread like one of those fold-out greeting cards, with Sue's breasts popping off the page and into the reader's face. An interesting idea, maybe, but impossible to actually do. Nora's advice column on page 6. Nora's a nut. She got a letter this month from a girl in Canada who says she hasn't had sex in a year and is considering jumping nude out of a window to her death. Nora's advice? "Darling. Don't do it. Not until we get a Stag camera crew out to Toronto." We would all be arrested if we printed that, but come to think of it, it would make an interesting layout. Vanessa del Rio on page 61. It's a nice pictorial article, right? You know what Tido wanted to do? He wanted to print a big shot of Vanessa with her mouth wide open and perforate the hole formed by the lips so you readers could punch it out and do nasty things with her. That's infuckingcredible! I think you'll enjoy this month's Stag. Besides the Ayatollah, Nero, and Nora, we got some really hot shots of Veri Knotti on page 42. Stag's Angels scored in L.A., on page 31. And we got the lowdown on an insane punk rock group on page 53. But best of all, I kept us out of jail one more month. See you all in the April Stag. I hope.
