Worldwide Stupidity Epidemic Linked to Space Aliens in Phone Company
Brain Boggling Beings Crossing Everyone's Wires

San Francisco, CA, March 28- The phone company is reaching out and touching people everywhere- and leaving them with the I.Q. of a turnip!

A mysterious force emanating from phone lines apparently has the power to turn even rocket scientists into mush-for-brains morons!

Representatives from the phone company refused to discuss this large-scale lobotomy, but irrefutable rumor has it that...

Could They Be Space Cowboys?

A Typical Day in the Life of Zak McKracken

<i>Two-headed turtles... possessed toasters... carnivorous cantaloupes... reincarnated rock stars... vegetarian vampires...</i>

To Zak McKracken, it's just another day at the office. He's the roving reporter who's scoffed at by his peers. Dreaded by his creditors. And relished by readers of his tabloid sleaze.

But one night in bed, Zak McKracken uncovers evidence of an extraterrestrial plot. And unlike all the other "alien conspiracies" his tabloid churns out with regularity, this one's for real!
