this is interesting it makes kidpub interesting aswell
This is an awesome edition to the site! If you need more articles, I've posted a few.
Wow, super cool idea!!! But I think we should have a newspaper that the pubbers write. It could have stuff like new members, news on the NES and contest winners... even contests of its own! Now THAT would be cool.
I am half goat...
I so agree!!!!!!!!!
I think kid pub should have a e-paper. Filled with pictures and aeticals like these that should be e-mailed to all kidpub members,
In romeo and julet why do they both die insted of living happyly ever after togerther ?!!!
I think that kidpub should e-mail all of the members a letter each month or every other week that talks about what goes on around kidpub!!!
@ Kimberly:
....Because that would be cliche, predictable, and a tad bit boring? xD
