Cuts of Our Favorite Films

They're
the scenes that make a movie memorable. They're the
scenes we remember years from now. They're the scenes
we occasionally beat off to. Uh, scratch that. Anyway,
these famous scenes that stick out in our minds
weren't always written the way that eventually made it
to the screen. Renegade Monkey Nuns has uncovered the
original scripts.

Loves Creed
By

Stu : 03.18.02
Recently,
the Bush Administration has asserted
that Osama bin Laden is no longer a viable threat
to the United States. The Defense Department has
been wary of releasing the reason why they
believe this to be true; but fortunately for you,
Renegade Monkey Nuns has procured a new video of Osama
bin Laden speaking with his associates that seems to
corroborate the administration's claim.

Much

Olympics plays second fiddle to its far more popular
counterpart, The Summer Olympics. This year,
however, the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic Games were
quite interesting and enjoyable. And yes, Sasha

Our
Favorite Electronic Noise

Monkey Nuns Staff :
12.14.01
You
ever notice that people buy CDs of bands who have one
catchy song and then find out that the record is full
of crap? (I'm looking at you, Baha Men) Anyways, we
here at Renegade Monkey Nuns have a wide range of
music tastes and think that most of these band's songs
are not crappy. That's a good thing. I
find it odd though, that I (Disco
Stu) am the only person who doesn't have Green Day
and blink-182 on their list... And why does no
one have classic disco music on their lists? Why??
