Year in Review...2000

Being our first year in publication, the first year of the new millennium was a big time for us! Although we experienced many of the struggles and conflicts involved with entering the entertainment industry, we ended the year with a new vision and 4 1/2 issues of Just Laugh magazine under our belt. Quite different from our current format, the original layout is unique in that it was one of the few magazines on the Internet to attempt to recreate a paper issue in its entirety online. Obviously, it didn't work exactly like we'd hoped, but hey, you live and you learn!

Below are samples of the first five issues of Just Laugh magazine to give you an idea of what our beginning was like. Simply click on the title to view a blown up version of the cover for each issue...


{January 1, 2000 - Vol. 1, Issue 1} The Future is Here -- Look Busy!

OUR PREMIER ISSUE!!! Covering everything from lobsters to sex, not to mention the ever-famous millenium bug, Just Laugh magazine demands a window seat in the world of comedy. With big name contributions from Dave Barry and Douglas Adams, this issue definitely started off our running with a bang!


{March 1, 2000 - Vol. 1, Issue 2} Jesus Loves You, but Everyone Else Thinks You're an Asshole...

Not wanting to waste any time, we decided to use our second issue to tackle one of the most sensitive topics of all time: religion. This one drew in a lot of controversial ideas, so it's already one of our favorites!


{June 11, 2000 - Vol. 1, Issue 3} A racist is born every minute...

Ah, controversy! Some people love it, other people hate it, but here at Just Laugh we thrive on it! This issue focuses on the effects that racism has had on society and the lives of millions of people through countless generations...alright, we mainly poke fun and make light of the whole situation, but at least it's entertaining!


{July 1, 2000 - Vol. 1, Issue 4} 'The Parody Issue'

What can we say? This was the last complete issue of Just Laugh that was placed online in 2000, and even here, not everything ever got completed, but that's okay. Stuff happens. It's all part of playing the game, and we're still proud of it, so enjoy!


{September 1, 2000 - Vol. 1, Issue 5} Inaugurally Yours...

Nothing more than a cover ever came from this issue, but we loved it, so here it is!
