Sinister: Long night
by Brandt Fundak 15 Oct '99

15 Oct '99

Hello my musical support group. I don't know why I always feel the need to express my thoughts or talk about my personal life on this list, especially since it is not particularly exciting or interesting but I do. A particularly horrible week has become worse--last night they admitted my mom to the hospital. Something is seriously wrong with her and before I left the hospital last night she handed me paperwork for a living will, telling me that my brother and I would have power of attorney. I don't really want to deal with that. It's bad enough that my grandparents are falling apart--now my mom too. Then my brother told me that he and my dad had a blow out last night. My dad is such an ass, and less than a man, because he is gutless and a horrible father. I came to work today, because I needed something to focus on; not to worry about things that I have no control of. My mom encouraged me to do so. I sometimes feel that when I vent like this I am being self centered. I mean what makes my problems so much bigger than everyone else's? I mean, because really they aren't. But they seem like it to me. I don't know. Maybe I never will.

Sinister: they'll take your money and never give up

hello.. martin brought up this subject: >The Kids from Degrassi Street and my ears perked.. because all the degrassi shows were filmed right here in toronto, i'm always surprised by the fact that the whole world knows about the antics of joey, wheels, spike and ick. i SEE various members of the show around the city sometimes! really! i bumped into one of the twins (you know, long brown curly hair. everyone knows the classic operation when one of them gets an abortion) in the bathroom at school once, and then i saw her walking down the street another time. *gasp* i even sat behind liz (the one with the bangs and shaved head - joey jeremiah thought she would have sex with him, and casually dropped condoms on her coffee table, heee) during a screening of the movie "the red violin". and, on top of all of that, i KNOW someone who actually *lived* on degrassi street this past summer. the show has stopped running, but the legacy lives on... teri +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: The Kids from Degrassi Street
by Martin Robinson 15 Oct '99

15 Oct '99

Dear all, Thank you all kindly for your concern over my hot water and the Gas board situation*. It has finally been resolved and that lingering smell I was fostering / festering has been warmly showered off*. I can only apologise to all those out at the wonderful Hefners the other night for having to experience my lingering stink*. Only joking*! I don't give a toss really*. My brother is cool*. It's official*. He came round with the Spearmint album, as heralded in the latest delightful Papercuts issue, and let me borrow it*. Then he analysed Hefner and mentioned their similarity to Wreckless Eric*. But then he blew it all by going back to being a boring old tosser and whittering on about golf again*. But for one minute there I almost acknowledged his existence*. Only joking*! I don't give a toss really*. As for that Tim Hopkins what a streaming wet unbridled aclohol induced lump of excretion he really is. And remember kids that was just for fun*. Why doesn't anyone talk about Pokemon on the list*? And while on the intercourse theme and the Atlantic divide in its linguistic reference could someone eleborate on the baseball analogy for courting*. That is, what exactly has to be done to be on 1st, 2nd, 3rd base and get a home run*. And do you get anything for a bunt*? Gosh, that's all made me feel like a bit of "dancing" now*. Anyone up for it*? Te ra, Martin ear confection recordings (http://www.send.demon.co.uk) * - bollocks +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Heaven sent an angel
by spencer lloyd 15 Oct '99

It's a Friday nite and you are feeling sorta frisky, so you decide to head down to your friendly neighbourhood beat near the lake, in the hope of finding some cute boi to scratch your itch. You slink around the area trying to avoid the gazes of the sinister middle age men who give casual sex a bad name, when you eye catches a luscious young thing sitting forlornly on a damp bench. He has the look of a Bernard Sumner circa The Perfect Kiss, and that is enough to drag your nervous feet over his way. After making awkward small talk you get down to business. So you are down on your knees and you are listening to the noises around you; the crickets beside the lake, the cars zooming past on the nearby highway, and the obvious slurping sounds of love. But another noise makes it's way into the cold nite air; someone is singing under their breathe, it's Mr Sumner above you. You wonder if you should be offended, and begin to have doubts about your technique. But curiosity gets the better of you and you focus your ears to work what he is singing "I try to reach the halo, but desire just not strong enough". You know that song. "Revolver" you say. He looks down at you in bemusement obviously thinking that you are making some strange phallic reference. "No the song you were singing, it was by Revolver right?". "Oh yeah" he mutters. "I was listening to the album before I left tonite." "I had to steal the CD of my brother because i could no longer find it in the shops" you say. He smiles slightly, and there is an awkward pause before you return to the task at hand. He makes not a sound for the rest of the encounter, except to say 'thankyou', he even mutes his primal orgasmic screams. And so you are walking home feeling particularly dirty, and decidedly unsatisfied, and you think to yourself 'oh well at least he had decent taste in music." blessed be spencer lloyd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ stillness is a lie, my dear +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Can anybody tell me what that song is on the CGU advert. The chorus is 'We Could Be Heroes'. I'm sure I'm supposed to know what it is, but I don't, and it's great.

Sinister: Do you *Really* feel like dancing?
by ASpawnyGit＠aol.com 15 Oct '99

15 Oct '99

OK. After a night of being dragged to the local "Place where all the kids dance." I had a horrible time. Is it odd to not feel compelled to dance, even though the music and lights are so enticing? If you have ever seen the movie "Kids" then you know the part where the girl walks into the club...lights flashing, music bouncing, dark shady characters come up to her. That's my story, only I didn't take any drugs and I didn't get sexually molested afterward. Nonetheless.....my mates abroad tell me everyone dances at the clubs...and I feel like I might not be so cool once I make it to Glasgow...cause I would rather find a corner full of darkness to smoke cigarettes and drink beer and hope some nice girl will sit down and relate to my uneasiness. Anyway, cheers. From Knoxville, TN. Sorry...this is totally unrelated to belle and sebastian. -Bradley +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
