Welcome to the second issue of PINK KHAKI!
It must be one golden rule for servers: "thou shallst crash when Pink Khaki is supposed to go online!" Well, we're one day late, our apologies, but we hope the wait will be well worth for you.
You'll notice we had a slight change in the layout - the colours of PINK KHAKI definitely are one of those "hate or love" things, but we decided to keep them. However, we replaced the pink-on-khaki headlines as they were admittetly difficult to read. Hope this is a help.
Thanks to all of you who wrote us - we're actually completely flabbergasted and overwhelmed by the response. We really, really appreciate hearing from you, so don't hesitate to drop us a line. And don't forget: submissions are always welcome!
Jay Acovone has been out of town, so you will be able to read his interview in the next issue. But let's see ... what do we have to offer?
PINKIE'S HOT SIX QUESTIONS
This time answered by Colin Cunningham - and we really start to wonder here about what parts of their body men consider sexy!
TAKE FIVE
Heather Stewart-Cameron cornered Peter Williams at the London Expo. A different kind of interview.
THE SURVEY
We talked to every producer's favourite target group, the male teenagers about Stargate SG-1 and it's characters. The answers to our questions were really unexpected, and surprising. And while we were at it, we asked some gays how they see Stargate and feel about the characters - surprises there as well!
RETURN TO SENDER
This is the blue peter "How to write to your favourite celebrity" - we collected some facts, addresses plus some "golden rules" for writing, as well as some words of warning about buying autographs online.

The Pink Khaki Team
MÄKKA is without a doubt one of Switzerland's most talented young cartoonists. He didn't get the nickname "El Magnifico" without reason ... !
Beside his comic strip "Agent Rosa", his work within the last months includes the illustrations for a documentation on the excavations and restorations of a Roman town in Switzerland - a lovely book, informing about the life back in Roman times from two children's points of view, Prittusa and Tetto. You can see one illustration HERE.
Right now, he's working on various projects, but rumours go about a cartoon with an archaeological background (do we see a trend here?)
