Sinister: Fun for the Family!
by Chris Leonard 30 Mar '98

30 Mar '98

Good morning, I have only gone and invented a Belle and Sebastian word game! Simply take the letters of the alphabet extend them to Belle and Sebastian list style words. Then extend these words into rhyming couplet style lines. Got it? Here's my rather pitiful effort. As you can tell I really struggled with some of it, but please remember I'm only a child. I trust everyone will now make a special alphabet of their own. A is for andrew dean, a big fan of B - Belle and sebastian the band C is the cello that Isobel plays D is for Stuart D - possible gay? E is the email through which we exist F is "for f***s sake": Keith when he's pished G is for Geddes, a very shy lad H is for Honey's rather large nads I is for Isobel Campbell, a girl who loves J - jesus. Who's evil clone kills. K for Katrina, and her pal the waves L is for looper, a possible gay M is for Murdoch - your hero and mine N is for northy, I love that wee swine O is the oo in oo la la las P is the P!O!P! life which everyone has Q Is for Queen doing "Don't Stop me now" Rip me up Richard, I'm sure you know how S is for Sarah, who is a wee doll Tigermilk prices shall rise and not fall U is the underground found at Hillhead V is the vixen found in Honey's bed W is we, cos we rule the pop school X is for x-rated swearies - not cool Y are the yeh-yeh girls whose records tag gets Z is for Zardoz (?), That's my alphabet! Hmm. OK, I'm sure you all can do better. Let It Rock, Christine ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

No - Katrina send a lovely message to tell me about it, but it is just so complicated with all the BBC involved and that, it's all just too scary for little jong to handle. bye jon g. jon.g(a)btinternet.com - http://www.btinternet.com/~jon.g/ (I meant to send this to the list) (Katrina - my spellchecker wants to change your name to Quatrain.

Sinister: i'm only lucid when i'm writing posts
by mkl206＠is8.nyu.edu 30 Mar '98

30 Mar '98

ah, the ink polaroid spirit has filled me, and just won't go away. so here we go again: * I'm in washington square park, in the foreground, the girl with purple flipflops, flares, and silly sunglasses. I'm reading my psychology book and for the most part i'm paying alot of attention. but sometimes i get distracted by feeling the breeze ruffle past and look around at my fellow layabouts. On my headphones, I'm listening to "the lonliness of a middle distance runner," that's why i look frozen. Around me are a great many people, lying on the grass. in front of me, a woman is drawing a picture of us. shes trying to be subtle, but it isn't working too well. if you look in the right corner, you can just see the arch. i don't think i have anything else to write about really, oh, except the ever elusive picnic idea. how about next weekend? if it's anything like this one, a saturday afternoon in central park sounds very nice. but does anyone know what the weather is supposed to be like? we should probably know that first. xox megan mkl206(a)is8.nyu.edu visit the magnetic fields web page at: http://www.dissemination.com/megan/magneticfields/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Hi! It's Lesley, the badge-spotter again. You're right i should have said something to that guy with the B+S badge. I've only seen someone wearing it twice, the first was a girl at my friend's band's show at a video/record store last month. She had this great red hair and a 40's style (i think) vintage dress on, the badge was on her jacket. She was sitting on the floor, and we were all very quiet, squished in this small space between the rental videos and the counter. Every few minutes during the show someone would traipse across the crowd to return a movie! Anyway, the new Pastels CD Illumination is my current favorite, but I'd go with '"Truckful" take care, Lesley the mair ye greet, the less ye have t'pee.

Sinister: his voice is like melted butter
by blink＠inexpress.net 30 Mar '98

30 Mar '98

well all you Pastel people,which cd should i get 'sitting pretty' or 'truckfull of trouble' (or something like that...) You know one of my favourite bits of the Little Prince is when he is talking about how adults always ask questions about people in numbers.How old your boyfriend is,how old is friends is,how much money he makes etc etc..they never ask what his voice sounds like,what games he likes best... how nice to have spotted a dog on wheels badge on somebody's bag! Because they are so rare,if i was to see a person walking down the streets i walk down everyday witha belle and sebastian t-shirt on,i would have to restrain myself from hugging them,i would at least have to tell them 'that's a beautiful shirt!!' so many lurrvely ink polaroids,this is one of my favourite photographs.it's simple really...i'm hugging andy and he's hugging me,and it's a picture where i am smiling,a really big smile that i usually don't do,but i'm so happy a tiny smile just wouldn't do.And we LOOK happy,and bright, a contrast to the dirty city alley behind us...andy's pants look sunny and i like the way my hands are clutching on to his shoulders like i'm about to fall over but i won't because of him,and my hair was longer then so it falls over his hands. luv n stuff, genevieve:) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: heh
by John Jackson 29 Mar '98

29 Mar '98

I saw something bloody funny today, I was waiting in Marylebone station in London for my train back to Buckinghamshire, and two Britrail/Railtrak/whatever officials were escorting this suited gent out of the station... Imagine, if you will, Mr Rumbold from 'Are You Being Served?'. Imagine him shouting his head off about football. You see, today was the Coca Cola Cup Final at Wembley Stadium... The Suited Gent was shouting about 'when it comes to this, spending 15 million pounds on a footballer, spending 30 pounds on a replica shirt, you have to wonder, don't you, what exactly is going on, what are we doing' etc etc.. Well it made me laugh anyway. Actually, reading this back it doesn't sound so funny. But he was really posh. JJ xx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: sebastian = the little prince
by vlass＠interlog.com 29 Mar '98

29 Mar '98

helloo since it was such a beautiful day, i finished rereading -the little prince- out on the porch. has anyone noticed the similarities between the little prince and sebastian? in the sleeve notes for 'tigermilk', it talks about sebastian befriending a fox.. if you recall, in -the little prince-, the prince becomes good friends with a fox as well. the fox teaches him a lot about friendship and love: >And he went back to meet the fox. >"Goodbye," he said. >"Goodbye," said the fox. "And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is >only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." how belle&sebastian is that? i thought it was kind of neat :) teri xoxo ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
