It appeared so nice and tidy. It was the storybook stereotypical rock star suicide. We`ve seen it before so the events and motives made sense to us, almost TOO much sense. Well all of us here at BoW knew something stunk and we put our heads together to get to the bottom of thiz mess. You won't believe what we found. During the weeks following the death of Kurt Cobain BoW's most talented collection of haqrs spent their dayz and nights exploring the internet, searching for truth. What we found startled us, and is sure to send chillz up the spines of every cyberpunk on the globe. Kurt Cobain is still alive and more shockingly, he's a haqr! We will present you with overwhelming evidence, including actual logs of our voyages throughout the net in search of the real truth and possibly more significantly, a search for ourselves. I`m sure that after you carefully and objectively review the following material you will share the opinion that Kurt Cobain is indeed a ueberhacker and is far from deceased.

Well there you have it friends. Kurt Cobain iz indeed alive and he's quite a proficient haqr. You have seen everything that we saw during that fateful day of April 9, 1994. And so we leave the facts in front of you to decide for yourself, should you have any doubt. We seek to manipulate no one at BoW. We simply report the truth, pure and untarnished. Of course truth iz a relative term and can be a bit distorted in the minds of the insane but hey.. in a world with so little truth anymore, we can't afford to be nitpicky. We hope to keep you updated on the new life of Kurt Cobain. Note that we changed all of hiz real inpho to protect hiz privacy. Until next time... Phear the truth. Phear BoW.
