Sinister: ampersand c
by Alexander Borgia 17 Dec '99

17 Dec '99

Greetings Sini-sisters and brothers..... I'm about to poke my nose where it doesn't belong, but when you are a troll with a big nose, it is expected of you. As you have already read, the list is experiencing some technical difficulty. I have full confidence in our mummy that all the issues will be resolved in due time. That is not to say that it will be without some burps and farts. I read somewhere that this list is filled with students and geeks....I guess I fall under the latter. Not the ladder mind you. So I am quite used to life in the techno-glitch world of weblife as I have no other. Here is my suggestion.... We all know that you get what you pay for .....a free host is just that.....free and unstable. This is why we are experiencing problems with the list. Now it would appear that the best way to ensure that the list continues without difficulties is to do it right. This means an outlay of cash-a-moola. Now I would never expect our dearest mummy to ever mention this allowed, but I am sure that if listees were to ...um....let's say.....send mummy a Christmas card and let's say......include a little token our our appreciation in the form of colourful pictures our our reigning monarch or some long deceased public administrator, the appreciation would be overwhelming. Think of it as sort of buying our mummy a pint to say "Good Cheer." What say you all? Alexander (PS: if necessary, I will do my damnest to impersonate a televangelist and we certainly don't want that) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Hamster Death (and other such atrocities)
by Pete Ramsdale 17 Dec '99

17 Dec '99

Now there's a name for a heavy metal band if ever I saw one. Hamster Death. They could come on stage with various assorted stuffed hamsters and pints and pints of fake blood. No? Oh well, it was only a suggestion. My own tragic hamster story (pete cranks up the music from "Our Tune" in the background) happened when I was about six, and my sister four. We used to take our hamster out of it's cage every so often, and let it run freely through tunnels that we'd lovingly crafted out of upside-down books. At one end of the tunnels would be some food, and it nearly always chose the correct route to get straight to it. (Dramatic pause whilst "Our Tune" music comes to the beginning of the next bar). One afternoon, I gently lowered the hamster into the start of our little maze, and sat there with my sister waiting impatiently for it to appear at the other end, where the food was. After about a half hour of waiting, I began to realise that something had gone drastically wrong. I started to lift the books up, one by one. There, under a particularly gaudy chapter of the "Children's Encyclopedia Brittanica" (G-I - I remember it even now) was our beloved Cyril, who instead of popping it's head out the other end of the tunnels, had decided to pop his clogs instead. After a short while spent poking it to try to get it to move, my natural human reactions took over, and I ran away shouting "Urrrrgh." Anyhow, on to matters of far greater importance, which is where I try to do an Alasdair Cook impression, only with far less style and wit: Ellen said: > ..frosty wind made moan.. and right she bloody was about it too. Mostly it comes from pensioners. The moaning, that is, not the wind. You wouldn't believe the amount of whinging than my gran does at even the hint of a cool breeze. As for frosty winds, well, she never shuts up. followed by P F: > Me, I'm occasionally provoked by the *revenant* of Arthur Albiston. Despite > being well past his best by 1988, he was still appearing in full-page colour > 'posters' in *Match* magazine. He also adorns the mid-80s edition (was there > ever another?) of Jack Rollin's Soccer: The Records. and he was, as I remember, the only bugger I could never get in my otherwise complete book of panini football stickers from nineteen eighty something. Not even when I offered my mate three and a half hundred Kenny Dalglishes in return. Shows you the warped values that some people hold in life. Now there's an idea - panini B&S stickers. You get a great big board to put on your wall for which you can then buy stickers of the band members of your choice. Hardest to get, and most treasured, would of course be the Sinister club badge, done in red on a silver background. Just think - you'd be the envy of all your friends. But there again, if they just let you fritter away your lifetime earnings on sticky pieces of plastic they're probably not very good friends anyway. And on to Brandt: > 2. Unfortunately Kate Bush's voice is not what angels hear when god > speaks to them. that would be Rose Melberg's voice. Not too sure about that Rose character, as I have absolutely no idea who she is, but you were pretty spot on about the first bit. If I was an angel (and to be quite honest, the *only* people ever to have thought of me as such were my sadly misled parents) I'd go running straight to Old Nick himself if Kate Bush so much as threatened to open her cakehole. Deary me. Just to keep the flow going, Jan said: > who knows, maybe they're even spying on us.. komm raus, christian > kracht, oder ich barre dir ein stück rad, dass es goetzt! which was all rather sadly lost on me, I'm afraid. The only bit of German I can remember from four annoying years trying my best to learn the bloody stuff is "Hauptbahnhofschnitzel". Which means "Mainline railway station lightly covered in breadcrumbs and fried for half an hour". My heart raced when kitten mouse said: > i like macintoshes and then sank again when she swiftly followed it with: > (the computer) God. Has everyone these days lost their appreciation of a good quality raincoat?? Such a shame... Zoe pondered upon > the soundtrack of my life Which got me thinking. Laterally, of course. Does anyone else have mornings when you get up and you think about a song so much that it's like having the band playing inside your head?? It can sometimes be quite nice, but unfortunately when I arose this morning My Bloody Valentine had taken up residence. Ordinarily I wouldn't mind this, but at the time I was extremely hung over. And they were making one hell of a racket. Well, I'll leave out all the other tedious rubbish I was going to include (because I've gone on long enough already), and stop to say thankyou to our incredibly lovely list mummy. Honey, we love you. I'll leave you all with a heartwarming, festive letter of thanks sent by a participant in a charity-sponsored lunch for the elderly: Dear Safety Harbor Middle School: God blesses you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent senior citizen's luncheon. I am 84 years old and live at the Safety Harbor Assisted Home for the Aged. All of my family has passed away. It's nice to know that someone really thinks of me. God blesses you for your kindness to a forgotten old woman. My roommate is 95 and always had her own radio, but would never let me listen to it, even when she was napping. The other day her radio fell off the nightstand and broke into a lot of pieces. It was awful and she was in tears. She asked if she could listen to mine, and I said "fuck you". Sincerely, Edna Johnston Says it all, really, dunnit? Have a great Christmas and a truly pissed-up Bennyhillium, lol p xx. -- -----------------------------*||*-------------------------------- Ode from London, SE8 "In the midst of life, we are in Deptford." - Martin Newell, Poet.

Sinister: the power of subliminal messages
by stephen hewitt 17 Dec '99

17 Dec '99

I've noticed that everyone's been talking about hamsters this week, strangely enough it seems to be ever since my last post which included rough lyrics to cognoscenti vs intelligentsia by the Cuban Boys (ie the hampsterdance song). Spooky, eh? Somebody asked about the "king of my castle" record. I reckon it's Must be a reason why I'm freeing my trapped soul rather than "freeing my trestle", but who can tell in the crazy mixed-up world of europop. We had our Christmas "do" the other night, which was much humourous. I was the youngest of our group by quite a bit (which makes a change (see numerous posts of mine with me moaning on about being an old bastard)). There was food, there was wine, there was gossip about affairs, there was a lot of MIDDLE AGED PEOPLE DANCING BADLY to rather horrid music (he did play "tainted love/where did our love go" by soft cell, full 12" version, which redeemed it a bit). It was just like sinister picnic really ;) Only kidding (the middle aged people at picnics can dance really well). Ooh yes, that new Mint Royale single with lovely lovely Lauren Laverne on is fantastic and i suggest you all listen to it lots, certainly better than any of the Rosita stuff i've heard. Fight the Power and let honey know how much we all love him, go on, do it now. xoxo CarsmileSteve oh no, I just realised I'll have to send in a picture of my full 12" now... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

hello sinisterines i know i've not been on sinister very long, and i probably don't post the most interesting of things, but i just feel really bad at everything thats been happening and I vote we all bombard Esosoft with nasty complaining type mails, and since there's about 1000 of us, it should carry a bit of weight. Also I think honey's doing a great list mummy job in all that's been doing so far.

Sinister: I'm Calmer Than You Are
by Peter Miller 17 Dec '99

17 Dec '99

One of the things I like most about the Sinster list is the way it lurches from disaster to disaster, with hardly anything in between. Just like real life, only cheaper. Tapioca.com, huh? Sounds like a bunch of asswipes! Yesterday I had a look at the photos again. You look like a nice bunch, as my mother is fond of saying when looking at photos of my chums. I'm not sure what she really means. There was David "I Can't Take Any" Moore dressed in something that makes him look a little like a military man, there was Miss Vicky, apparently unruffled by the huge hairy caterpillar crawling up the side of Mark's face. Nick Dastoor has fallen asleep to the gentle sounds of the Beach Boys' "Friends" album, a personal favourite. He will shortly be rudley awakened by frenzied "it's cool!" interjections during "Transcendental Meditation" and shuffle grumpily through the kitchen door to make a cup of tea. Brandt's hamster has also died, but unlike other listees, he has decided to sellotape the unfortunate creature to his chin. Trousers has binned a tree, in a vain attempt to attract the attention of the young lady in the background. On Monday I'm going to be an interpreter. What's the name of that bloke who talks funny, was on a Small Faces record? I'm going to do it like that. Speaking of jobs, me and the missus want jobs in the British Isles area, so I've decided to leave it up to you lot. Bear in mind that I've seen "Rosetta" and I will probably find a way to nick YOUR job, unless you can wangle me one. I mean two. It doesn't matter if it's shovelling shit, as long as it pays enough to live like Steptoe on acid. It's all wheels within wheels. Peter With that the sinister list waggled its bushy eyebrows and disappeared in a flash of blue flame leaving behind only a faint smell of semen +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: poem
by Charles McGhee 17 Dec '99

17 Dec '99

He laid her on the table So white, clean and bare. His forehead wet with beads of sweat, He rubbed her here and there. He touched her neck and then her breast, And drooling, felt her thigh. The slit was wet and all was set, He gave a joyous cry. The hole was wide...he looked inside, And all was dark and murky. He rubbed his hands and stretched his arms, And stuffed the Christmas turkey. May I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a drunken New Year!!! +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: We'll keep the red flag flying here
by Mark Casarotto 17 Dec '99

17 Dec '99

I don't even know if we still can post, but if so, ¡viva la revolucion! We will lay down our lives for the honour of miss honey* and the national socialist (no, that's not right), erm, social democratic republic of sinister and all who sail in her! Archel's post about her House of Horror brings to mind Dr Harold Shipman, who murdered dozens of his patients (can I say that? My lawyers tell me he hasn't been convicted yet) while pretending to care for them. Rachel Playforth, I put it to YOU that you did not stand idly by while Monty, Monty, Monty, Monty, Monty, Monty and Monty joyously discovered the latch to their cage strangely open (forgive me if my adverbs are oddly placed, I'm listening to K!A!T!E! R!U!S!B!Y! while I write this), only for a handily placed cat, the aforementioned Rover (eh??), to snap them up. An accident? Or bloody MOIDER? You, the Sinister Jury, must decide... Love and eternal allegiance to the glory of our cause, Comrade M *though if you believe the rumours, she lost her honour a long time ago... ******************************************************************* The contents of this e mail from HIT Entertainment PLC are confidential and intended for the addressee only.
