Sinister: candida
by sad tomato 05 Nov '98

05 Nov '98

now. i am reading the plethora of digests i have received from you guys recently, and i am only on #456. so if i repeat something, please ignore me. two days ago, scott said: Okay, so the scientific name for "thrush" is "Candida albicans"- nasty oral fungal infection yada, yada, yada. Well, the scientific name for the common vaginal yeast infection is also "Candida" something or other. And, I'm no doctor, just a smutoglogist, but I am almost positive that you can get thrust from (here comes the smut) going down on someone who has a yeast infection. Thus and therefore, making railings, well, i think you can use your visual imagination....... and, as a latinist, i would like to say something. i used to be on the pulp list a long long time ago, and we were talking about how really sad that candida's parents named her candida. a yeast infection! well, anyway, in latin, "candida" is a diminutive that means something like "sweet little girl." though, i cant find my dictionary right now, so i am not explicitly correct. for those old romans this was a nickname of sorts. as it turns out, candida is not too bad a name for a person. well, maybe if you were living centuries ago. oh yeah. i am not afraid to say that i have had yeast infections, as most women have these at some point or other. the reason i am saying this is because my boyfriend never got thrush, and maybe you dont get thrush THAT way. enough smut for ya?? a girl obsessed with names, robin. Blood oranges grow well in Florida, but they frighten American women. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: b+s+flimzes
by milla |razorkandy| 05 Nov '98

05 Nov '98

hello all leel kittens, I just wanted to tell you all aboutthe flim I made in New York over the summer. It isn't finished yet and given the current cost of postproduction it might never be, but here goes.. It is called Thirsty and is a journey from North to South in Williamsburg and manhattan looking for a cigarette and a nice cold ice cold glassa waterr. there is only one character in it, played by a lovely and androgynous friend who is called Pingel (sounds like...Pingu) and that character is called Photo Jenny. She doesn't speak and is only in two scenes. She has blond hair and wears a grey t-shirt with a border drawn on round the neck and sleeves in black marker pen. She stands in the middle of the street looking unsure whether or notto look straight at you, but finds the courage when she's looking down a paper telescope, then she puts it down and stares and a grin flashes across her face like a kid who has had a mind-expanding shock and mightlaughmightcry. Then finally she turns round really fast, dropping the telescope and runs away towards the Williamsburg bridge as fast as she can, tripping over her long blue skirt as she flees. Later we see her in the evening, on the fireescape sipping a glass of water and grinning. The film is just a load of sunny mood-capaturing location shots really. I wondered if anyone else had been inspired by b+s in a similar way? Or what do you think Photo Jenny looks like? anyone know when the next bluesoda is (sorry for being too lazy to look it up on the site.) Seb shall we go this time? Jonnyyrpomeismahv'lous keep at it yer K-rayzee Kat.

Sinister: Le Chat Noir et Sebastien
by rebelstrange＠ldd.net 05 Nov '98

05 Nov '98

I changed the lyrics to suit our little adventure. here goes nonsense. LE CHAT NOIR ET SEBASTIEN Half moon shone, frumpy girls in a Greyhound Far from home, oh if only you knew how.... Le Chat Noir, et Sebastien Vomit in the loos, crazy men in the bus stop But you've come much to far just to give up Le chat noir et sebastien Reading poetry under Lincoln's knee You're too poor, much too poor for a taxi Run for miles round the White House and back again Don't stop now, take the subway round... Sarah's got the key You'll get in for free Wouldn't you like to get away Bestowing a bar of Tiger's milk upon the boy who makes your apple shine, Don't be shy... And you love her tiger bonnet and short skirt "Track and Field" is so beautiful it hurts Le Chat Noir et Sebastien La Baguette's bizarre taste of vine-gar.. Wouldn't you like to get away Give yourself up to the allure of Stu and Isobel, and Chris and Neil and Mick as well Wouldn't you like to get away, Write yourself up a bunch of dirty Madlibs, take some snapshots of dead birds-- Buxom fun ********************** given, it's full of inside jokes....... lesley Jo

RE: Sinister: Ease your shaved head into the sea !

Is Struan also the new name of Shaved Stuart ? Oh god ! Is it possible that Andre may not have seen Stuart on Hyndland road at all, and it was perhaps Duncan Goodhew, Telly Savalas or maybe even Yul Brynner (Oooon may be able to sort us out on that one). As far as I'm aware they're still in America, the word last night from Anne I believe was that the newest megastar in the B+S camp, DJ Doctor Divine "the Spinmaster" Symington was coming back on Saturday the 7th from America, as is Mick from whom the date the 7th came completely separately. I'm sure Ian will be able to confirm this one... so unless Stuart came back separately from all the rest, I think it's basically definite that Andre actually saw someone else who was famous and bald, such as perhaps Errol Brown from Hot Chocolate. We went to see Air last night at the Fruitmarket in Glasgow, and it were great, keep up the good work frogs! They did wind up playing bits from "Funkytown" by Lipps Inc. and "Are Friends Electric?" by Gary Numan, plus a strange version of Tomorrow Never Knows, but their own stuff was definitely the best, really good. The frogs really have it wrapped up at the moment with the liked of Air, Kid Loco, Motorbass, La Funk Mob, Daft Punk etc, really great. Tag will be loving it, cause as we all know he's a huge fan of French music, like Jean Michelle Jarre, and Johnny Halliday. Mick McMick, you would be wise to believe the young lad Leonard when he says that B+S did indeed play Turn Turn Turn at the church, we've got a tape of it for a kick off - or at least, it's a tape of me and Chris singing along to the hymn but strategically substituting rude words along the way. Carrick, I think your hair worries are now over, looking like Roger Daltrey just after he stopped using Dippety Doo, and like Chris Hillman stopped the perhaps slightly more dangerous tack of ironing his hair, thet both looked cool, for all that though, I still think you should go for the 70's Daltrey look, where you could grow your hair longer, dress up as a red indian and affect a kind of marching on the spot dance whilst walking down the street. Indeed Peter, sorry to be late on this one but Matey boy Keith Moon did indeed collapse at the cow palace, this was because some bloke offered him a drug which he said was a very strong animal tranquilizer, he was told to take only half of it, but of course he shouts "Rubbish! I'm Keith Moon" and necks the whole thing. Later it is found out in hospital, that this drug is the sort of thing you load up into a rifle and shoot a rhinocerouces to knock them out. Cheers, Keith. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: list thrush

Well goodness gracious me, Now that the secrets of Megan's furry friend have been revealed to an astonished public, and the "does Stuart Murdoch help out at weekends?" debate has once again reared its boring head, I think it's time I wrote something smut-free for a change. Keith "Up yours Delors" Watson said: >frogs frogs Keith, as you know I wholeheartedly disapprove of such terminology for our Trans-manche pals. Being the Bohemoth of PC that I am, I insist that in future you stick to the considerably more ethical description "Gallically challenged". He also told a half-truth: >Tag will be loving it, cause as we all know he's a huge fan >of French music, like Jean Michelle Jarre, and Johnny Halliday. I do actually have a record penned by JMJ. It's very good. It's by Francoise Hardy, not altogether surprisingly. Also not altogether surprisingly, I've completely forgotten what it's called. But hey...remembering titles is for squares. I was supposed to go and see Air in Manc on Tuesday but I was terribly tired. I was secretly impressed when Richard wrote: >Dear You load of twats, You'll go far, my friend. Finally, Peter Miller, please never mention the word eels again. They scare me. It's not Freudian, in case your sick twisted perve minds are putting two and two together and making five. It was that scene in "The Tin Drum" that did it. Horrible slimy things. They must surely die.

Sinister: Megan may not babble, but I do
by Reid Dossinger 05 Nov '98

05 Nov '98

> I finally found out what an arab strap was(Quit a laugh to was). So now im > debating weather that is an arab strap on the cover.anyone can help me? > Oh, yeah. That's an arab strap all right, being used on poor, unsuspecting Chris "Camel" Geddes. It is remarkably stick-like, sure, but arab straps have changed through the years. Where once they were used to trap camels, they're now used almost exclusively to trap Scotsmen for use for an international musician slavery ring. The album cover is a shot of Chris' capture that came after a 4 day chase through the north of Scotland. The look of defeat on his face is really pretty tragic. I personally think it's kind of tasteless that they used that shot for the cover. But that pretty much sums up Belle and Sebastian in a word: "tasteless". I'm pretty amazed, actually, that in the two shows I saw, wee Chris had PLENTY of chances to escape, but didn't. That Murdoch guy must be even more evil that any of us could have expected. One of the best friends a guy could ever ask for said: > so cast > my vote for the entire list. well, perhaps, with the exception of > indiarub, who has clearly never seen north carolina in october. > AMEN! It's actually been a sub-par fall around here, and it's still so gorgeous it makes ya giddy. Ask Ginger...she knows. By the way, if there are any other Chapel Hillians and/or UNC-CH students who still need a copy of Tigermilk and the sessions, let me know. It's that whole mailing thing that keeps me from taping it more often. > Charistian wrote and a firedance through the night, > christian. - Duran Duran lyrics!! you can't say that!!!!!!!!! > You can and you will. All the cool kids do. You sit in the back of the bus, chew gum in class and you always, ALWAYS end your email with a Duran Duran quote. Damn...where have YOU been?! That's all I have time for.

Sinister: we live here but we're sightseers.
by Christian Scanniello 05 Nov '98

oh dear. it's tough to be the new kid. so it seems i've already committed some breach against etiquitte by quoting a duran duran song. i'm sorry...i just couldn't help it. i just purchased the best of collection that came out this week and i'm not afraid to admit that i still love it. eeek...i thought the days of fearing for my love duran duran ended after middle school. heehee. oh well. as a show of penance, however, might i suggest a pointing of your browser to www.benno.com? why? well for starters because it's a nifty swedish pop zine (that boasts a pro-b&s sentiment, btw) but because you can now listen via read audio archive to a concert by the lucksmiths that took place last month in stockholm! the lucksmiths are the finest, most addictive pop band this side of b&s. their latest album "a good kind of nervous" is quite habit forming. enjoy! and next time i try to resist the urge to quote spandau ballet.... tallyho, christian. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
