Using his vast array of grafted-on gizmos to bust bad guys, Gadget is out to fulfill his dream of becoming the world's top detective.

No big boobs and quite clear references to prostitutes like in the cartoons. Darn. And Inspetcor Gadget is played by... Matthew Broderick. Doesn't sound that good... anyway, this inspector gadget movie was filmed in pittsburgh, pa, usa--home of me. not that many good movies are filmed here in this shabby shitty erm...city. the ones i remember include an awful sinbad one, an awful stephen segal one...but mr. rodgers is produced here in pittsburgh (he's my friend's godfather--strange?) and the new kevin smith film was just filmed here too (woopie)...so maybe there's a little hope for this fair city. anyway, my wonderful creative writing teacher is an extra for the movie (inspector gadget). if anyone see it, look for a woman with blond curly hair with an angel's face and a bad haircut. thats her. archel was speaking about necropheliacs (i don't know if that's spelled correctly...). my friend was really drunk one night. another friend hit him on the nose and he started to bleed. instead of saying "i'm sorry i'm a hemopheliac" he said "i'm sorry i'm a necropheliac, i can't help it" needlesstosay, but he is never going to live that baby down. anyway, i apologize for posting twice in one day. you can flog me if you like. hey, i might even get some enjoyment from it. to all you US taxpaying citizens: thanks, your hard earned tax dollars are paying me to sit here and write this fini!

Re: Sinister: everyone who is real does not have a name

Cripes - I've got a name. So I'm not real then? Mindfuck man mindfuck... John Cale and Lou Reed once sang a song about faces and names not making any sense to them. Must have been the years of drug abuse. Anyway, they went on to wish that all faces and names were the same, which I don't think would be much of a solution at all. Just imagine the confusion. Fools. I think we are allowed to flame people who aren't on the list. Or perhaps they are on the list. If so, I'm very very sorry John and Lou - I think you're great and I know you were only singing about Andy Warhol really. I bet Blake will catch hell from lurker Don Henley when he reads your post dissing the Eagles. Youn went on to write: >>sometimes it has to do with when people appear contrary to your expectations. that is what is happening to me now in the process of email personalities and names becoming attached to faces. an example of this is someone whom i mistakenly thought would be indian with an olive complexion and huge dark eyes and heavy lashes, but my stock of proper English names was incomplete. he turned out to be all fair hair and peaches and cream complexion and extremely innocent looking, which made everything he wrote or that was written about him seem all the more shocking.>> Call me self-centred, but I actually thought Youn was writing about me here until I got to the bit about fair hair. Actually, it's only because I've got an Indian surname that I thought that, I'm not really self-centred at all. I'm great, me. This 'no one knows you're a dog' business - I have to confess to you Youn (Youn Jong?) that despite having exchanged quite a few emails with you, I have no idea what sex you are. You could let me know if you like. You don't have to show me or anything - I'll take your word for it. Archel wrote: >>i don't know about jd salinger being a pervert, but i heard a terrible rumour about jimmy saville the other day. he did all this work for charity and kids, and was generally an old sweetie (apparently) but also donated sums of money to a mortuary in return for a half hour visit each week, no questions asked. >> Which is quite the most distubing thing I've heard in a long time. Next you'll be telling me Johnny Morris was a paedophile. Talking of celebrities with dark underbellies, my friend Dave actually made up a joke once all on his own that I think is very funny (I apologise to international readers who will be unfamiliar with cryptofascist twins of evil Ross and Norris McWhirter - they used to guest on the Record Breakers Show and show off about how they had every world record in the world ever stored away in their big heads) Q: Why did the IRA kill Ross McWhirter? A: He knew too much. Why has no one made a joke about Lawrence Dallaglio being caught in a Honey Trap? You could throw in phrases like 'Fey and vulnerable' somewhere. Once again, I apologise to international readers. Unreservedly. For everything.

Sinister: Re: Jamie and The Magic Torch

.....well, more re: Chorlton and the Wheelies, actually. Chorlton didn't scare me a bit. Nor his Wheelies. That bl**dy witch used to scare the living daylights out of me, though. And her kettle. Gives me the heebyjeebies just thinking about her. Fenella, I think her name was. Ugh. What an evil old bint. Scarier than Doctor Who on acid, and I am totally unashamed to say that, although I never saw a lot of Doctor Who, it has given me the ability to describe the back of our sofa in perfect detail. The only thing that makes me cower behind the sofa these days are those really loud bits in "Like Herod" by Mogwai. And they've also caused me to set fire to bits of my carpet on various occasions. Yes, folks, never partake in setting light to cancer sticks while listening to the 'gwai. 'xept when you see 'em live, of course, when it adds to the whole atmosphere and when it would positively be wicked not to smoke. (Well, I had to shoe-horn in some B&S content somewhere. Almost.) On that topic: my claim to fame - I've DJ'd after a Mogwai gig at the Arts Centre in Colchester. We ran out of tunes we liked after an hour, so for the last 45 minutes we had the members of the band choosing tunes that they wanted to hear, and we played 'em ("We" being DJ Bluesmoke (me) and DJ Travelcard (my mate) - deary me.) Fantastic bunch of lads, they are. Dominic danced to "The First Big Weekend", too, which managed to raise him even further in my esteem. And yes, much Belle and Sebastian did get played...... Well, that's about enough egotistical back-slapping for one day....:-) Adios, lol p xx. -- ---------------------------*||*------------------------------ "'Ullo, little old lady....." - Chorlton sums up the courage to talk to the nasty little f**ker in the kettle.....

Sinister: What's all this about Weller?
by Keith Watson 27 May '99

27 May '99

All this talk of the 70's WHO is making me dizzy, I'm dead impressed to have heard about Blake's 80 odd WHO albums, that's well good. I'd love to say I had 70 WHO albums, but unfortunately I'm down in the low twenties, so nowhere near what Blake has. I tried to find a site with some WHO songs on it to prove to you that the 70's WHO are in fact better than 60's Who, but there's not a lot out there. I guess da management has been shutting them down. The commonly held misconception that the WHO in the 70's were an Arena band with songs to match, is pretty much like when the general populace thought that the Jesus and Mary Chain were a goth band. The WHO's winning song formula didn't really change in the 70's, they just wrote more, and better ones, and plumbed a few synthesizers in here and there. It's also a bit off to go criticizing the lads, when they're on the list, all of them except Keith Moon of course, he died a long time ago. I think pretty soon I'm going to do a 70's WHO quiz on the list, just to see WHO's been paying attention. I'm listening to the wonderful Maccaploitation soundtrack to Live and Let Die. Wardy would be proud. Cheers to Weejay for the kind comments about my Website. There's a picture of a bottle of Tonic Water there now... plus I'm gonna stick a webcounter on it tonight to check on how many of you gyppos have looked at it... it's constantly developing. Bye bye Owen wizard, have a nice summer holiday, same goes for the rest of the "bloody students" on the list. (That was a joke, I was a bloody student 5 years ago). Hello to all the people WHOse first posts have been made recently, you really all ought to post lots more often. Cheers, Keith. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Jamie and The Magic Torch
by Martin Robinson 27 May '99

27 May '99

Hello again, All this talk of cartoons is fun, though I was never really a Gadget fan. Check this site out for cool theme tunes and stuff about your favourite classic children's TV. http://www.geocities.com/TelevisionCity/1011/ Jamie and his Magic Torch is a personal fave tune there and Chorlton and his Wheelies is pretty cool. Both songs that Neil Hannon would die for. Am I the only one who used to be petrified of Chorlton and His Wheelies? I think I was only 14 at the time so it's not surprising. Anyway must dash as I'm in a relay race and the baton's coming my way. (Actually I'm at work and there giving me work to do today. Do they not know I've got better things to do?).

Sinister: Glasgow Meet-Up

And it's only 5/10 minutes walk from the Uisge Beatha up near the Uni (Southpark Ave) (probabley nearer 5 minutes but depends on your state I suppose). No B&S content but I did go and see the Delgados last night, and they were fantastic, the High Fidelity were great too. It was weird though, getting in after the gig, turning on Radio One and listening to the gig again - not that it wasn't worth listening to twice! Since this I've just been given my voice, and I haven't said anything about myself I suppose I should maybe tell you all something about myself. Although theres nothing to tell, I'm a student and I love music - My taste is very eclectic - Beastie Boys, B&S, Broadcast, Delgados, Sportique, Lower, and also things like China Drum, Soulfly, Green Day, etc. etc. I have to agree with Geyv who wrote: >There just isn't enough quality children's television for students >to watch when they should be working these days. There isn't, if only they could bring back the classics, the old smurfs - NOT the new ones, the fraggles, and of course Cities of Gold. Think I should go and work now, but if people are wanting to watch Eurovision then let me know. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: space boy edam...

worst bagpipe experience of life so far: eating soggy pretzels in the main square in salzburg with nothing to divert me save a man in a kilt playing 'scotland the brave'. what happened to mozart? still, went on the 'sound of music' coach tour later that day, so it wasn't all grim. salzburg is on the whole a very boring place though, apart from the singing nuns. i've got to compile some questions for a bar quiz at the weekend, and i was wondering whether i dare to put in some q's about b&s. considering the quiz is in aid of breast cancer awareness, it's not exactly relevant, but i don't think i can resist. i can thereby track down lurking fans in york, you see. i don't know about jd salinger being a pervert, but i heard a terrible rumour about jimmy saville the other day. he did all this work for charity and kids, and was generally an old sweetie (apparently) but also donated sums of money to a mortuary in return for a half hour visit each week, no questions asked. hmm. necrophilia is also rearing its ugly head on this very campus - we witnessed a male duck trying vainly to have his way with a very much dead female duck the other day. no wonder york students are depraved. hugs, archel xxx ps: i think someone mentioned the well of loneliness by radclyffe hall. this book depressed me profoundly when i first read it, and that was before i even knew i had a sexuality, let alone where to put it. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Playforth do something pretty while you can don't be afraid rap101(a)york.ac.uk skating a pirouette on ice is cool http://members.tripod.com/~RPlayforth/welcome.htm -------------------------------------------------------------------- +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: dont worry, not many of them can read
by Timothy Roberts 27 May '99

27 May '99

i think ill refrain from even mentioning dundee, last time the subject came up i recieved threats of bodily harm from more than one (well, two) dundonians just because i happened to mention it in a less than compimentary context. im not joking. actually im not sure if one of them counts because it began with the sentence "if you ever come anywhere near dundee i will etc" so its a bit of a moot point as i have no intention of ever doing that. just so Iain McG knows what to expect, cos i was much more polite than him. and then he was talking about montrose. Every thing he said about it was true, and yet it is still something of a cultural hub for all us country boys. in fact i actually bought TBWTAS in john menzies in montrose. and i still follow Montrose FC, although this just involves watching the results come through every weekend then saying "oh, montrose lost again". my life is depressing enough without actually going to see them play. im not going to say which town i live in, that would be leaving myself open to cheap shots from anyone who knows the area. from tjohn. soon there will be a signature line here, with big-buddha-belly-bens website thing. vote batfink, you know it makes sense. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

yesterday was a horrid day for me, so i reason with myself and tell myself that you all *really* want to hear about it (some b&s content too!) so i begin: well, first i went to give blood. and was rejected. i felt so useless. i thought that you only had to wait six months to give blood after you get your nose pierced. oops, it's a year...i got some free pizza though for my "attempt" then, after that at lunch, i got to explain my relation to andy warhol (yeah, i'm living my 15 minutes through him). they weren't impressed though. "your grandfather was his cousin and grew up with him? we need some closer relationship, kim..." which is somewhat hard considering he's dead and i was only a wee tyke when he was still kickin. so i finish the afternoon making mistake after mistake (i think my mind ran away) at work--i.e. walking back to the building then having to return all the way back to the van to get what i was supposed to bring back inside, etc... when i went home i asked what i have been asking for about the past month or so "did i get any mail?" and FINALLY my jeepster packages have arrived. (it took about a month and a half with airmail and the works. i understand that they are backloaded and etc. but when you get it, it is packaged so cute that you don't mind waiting. you appreciate the effort. so be patient everyone who was asking aboutwhen their orders are going to come!) i quickly get everything in order: pins on the bag, poster on the wall, shirt in the laundry (because i need to shrink it). then when i go to the mall--mom lent me her credit card to go buy "normal jeans"--the first thing i do i lose on of those badges. i looked everywhere with a neck like an osterich's but to no avail... then i was driving in the car, singing to a tape of b&s and these kids in their mummy's car next to me start harassing me. they kept looking at me and laughing. then driving they slow down so they are right next to me, beep, i don't look over, then they speed up, and start imitating me. ( iwas going to flick them off but i didn't want to be as immature as them so i just taped my middle finger on the steering wheel and that's whaty they were imitating) THOSE BASTARDS! they made me so pissy! and, on top of it all, i had to go to the bathroom!! should i have flicked them off?? i kind of wish i would have, that or stuck my tongue out... after that i picked my friend up, we went back to my house and watched "persona" my favorite ingmar bergman. i just love bibi andrerson. tangent: does anyone know of a website devoted to her? i searched but all i found were NUDE BIBI. and, frankly, i'm not allowed to visit porn sites at work. :) and then we went out for tea. and the evening ended quite peacefully (after i forgot about those dumb boys) and that was my day. now, onto more important things: you lot all seem to have unfavorable feelings towards the bagpipes. what do you think about the accordion?? it's kind of a family tradition to polka at weddings (i love it, i get to dance with my grandparents, they whirl me around). and my uncle plays the accordian. i think it's so bad it's fun. someone mentioned muppets. now i don't want this to start into a muppet thread. it's just my mind works in odd ways. i had a professor lastyear who looked like a muppet. professor shapiro=french history. but didn't someone mention a band named the shapiros? (see, totally off the muppet topic) oh, how much i would give to hear them... i just went to a website fof the popes favorite movies. crazy. on the topic of fish names. i think i am going to get me some fish tonight...watch out ree, they're coming to the apartment next year! well, that's all i can think of at the moment.
