TEN-FAT-TIGERS:

Manifesto of the A.E.I.O.U.:

Ladies, Gentlemen, counter-revolutionaries, we are the A.E.I.O.U., the Secret Revolutionary Branch of the Order of Ten-Fat-Tigers. We are here tonight because we have had enough of this "University" which deigns to provide us with this farce of a "Student Government." We are sick of negotiations that go nowhere. We are tired of the corrupt idiocy that this institution seems to prize. Thus, we are doing away with our normal tactics of political discourse in favor of low-intensity conflict.

Myself and my fellow brigaderos are taking this "Student Council" hostage. All of you here tonight will remain in the protective custody of the People until the University agrees to and meets our demands. When and only when the University acquiesces to the will of the Homeland will you be released. No harm will come to you if you cooperate, otherwise you face the burning, terrible wrath of los muchachos borrachos! We will provide you with food and shelter until this situation is resolved. No Japanese Ambassadors to Peru will be held against their will.


So, in the name of the A.E.I.O.U. and the High Council of the Order of Ten-Fat-Tigers, we make the following demands of the University of Wisconsin-Madison:
-A Helicopter
-$1.38 in cash
-Más Menudo
-Living wage for Juan Valdez
-The release of our imprisoned comrades
-An admission by the University that the ASM is just a token gesture to placate our pent up rage, while it has no actual power or influence on this campus aside from feeding the over-inflated egos of a select few
-The institution of a ruling military junta
-Take back the siesta
-ASM approval of the NAMBLA agreement
-The unconditional release of our imprisoned comrades
-Return of the Panama Canal to Ronald Reagan
-A Student Government that has an equal power-sharing role in the University System, including decisions on faculty recruitment and the selecion of a popular front to actualize Montezuma's revenge -Nationalization of the copper industry
-A Student Government that has the power to withold student tuition fees from the University when we find it acts irresponsibly, thus giving students full emp HREF="mailto:tft@stdorg.wisc.edu">tft@stdorg.wisc.edu
