Sinister: The day after the revolution
by Jordi Trenzano i Vilar 27 May '99

27 May '99

B&S on TV, !! I NEED THAT TAPE !! I can trade it for rare videos of Tindersticks or PJ Harvey. Or the audio tape that I got yesterday from the radio of the B&S BarcelonaŽs gig. I had to wait until 2:00 at night, but itŽs great sound. To anyone who attended this historical gig: the first song is the "Tigermilk" instrumental ? is "Tigermilk" is the only instrumental that they have ever made ? if this last is true, then it is. the topic: I donŽt know if the name of that Pulp song would fit into what happened yesterday, because we had less disturbs than it was expected. The European Union is making the hooligans calm down. Unbelievable. IŽm feeling a bit strange, because I am an associate of the FC Barcelona since I was 5, I had the right of buying a ticket and I didnŽt. And there was people who were selling tickets at about 800 pounds. Um..... well, letŽs say goodbye before I start thinking on this last.... If anyone can answer me for the video tape, use my other adress: jordi(a)belleandsebastian.org ================================================== Jordiet Sinistre ================================================== Tu E-Mail Gratis en http://www.mixmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Cola Boy (Monkeys/10 Roddington Place)
by Keith Watson 27 May '99

27 May '99

There's something quite funny happening down the street from me, recently there's been a load of graffiti all over the subway by some bloke calling himself "Cola boy", which you can tell, because he keeps sticking his name all over the place. However, over the last couple of days, other locals have started taking the piss, as there's been graffiti by "Irn Bru man" and "Tizer girl" and so on. Made me laugh. Sarah - I'd continue along the Blaxploitation theme for your fish's name, it's definitely the way to go. What about "Truck Turner" or something like that. I'm not too impressed by the collection of writers on the list, the only author that I've ever read all the books they wrote has been Roger Hargreaves. On a Captain Birdseye theme, I'm also told that Roger Hargreaves is in fact a woman. Someone on the list cleared up the Birdseye mystery, but can someone clear up the Hargreaves mystery, is he/she in fact a Mrs.Man! Hey, I've done a web page, if you're exceptionally bored, go and look at http://home.freeuk.net/keith.watson But before you do that, be aware that there's hardly anything there (only stuff on the pictures page) and it only works in Internet Explorer! Some computer programmer I am! I'll stick in some photographs of various things maybe tonight. Probably should scan in some of the B+S picnic photos. I'm also going to stick on the wonderful Warhol-esque portrait I did of Rodd-Job Begbie, if that's alright with you Rodddney.

Sinister: everyone who is real does not have a name
by Youn Jong Noh 27 May '99

27 May '99

it was said about j.d. salinger in regard to the young woman with whom he possibly had an affair that this made him a pervert, but i don't think this is right. i remember reading a review of the woman's book which shed light on this state of affairs and her picture revealed her to look exactly as i imagined jane (who kept all her kings in the back row) in _catcher in the rye_ would look! and if j.d. salinger was young enough to write about holden caufield at whatever age he wrote about him, then maybe the age difference, which supposedly makes the affair scandalous, was not as great as it would have been, chronologically speaking. in the aftermath, there are always recriminations on both sides. the photos on the sinister site are great. there are a lot more listee photos now. i instantly knew whom someone meant when he (she?) said he (she) voted for her based on her photo. (and i checked.) she could be lolita. and that is another example of the jane (i don't know her real name)/j.d. salinger theme. cos it seems _lolita_ is only effective if you take humbert humbert's point of view seriously. cos she did betray him, too. 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. childhood photos are best. someone seems to have had an especially happy one. this person should remain faceless and only be imagined as a perky waitress with a pink uniform in a 50s diner by day and a French barmaid with a cream colored apron (with ruffles) and fishnet stockings by night. cheers, youn +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Belle & Sebastian on MTV
by Robert Fisk 27 May '99

27 May '99

A fairly short post and also fairly on topic. It's not my fault I tried to talk about things getting stuck in my orifices but I have no memory of my past. Anyway, is it true that Belle & Sebastian are going to be on MTV? If so, when is it going to be on in England?

Sinister: Eeentreshting, Meeeshter Bond.......
by Pete Ramsdale 27 May '99

27 May '99

Just a quickie (they all are - but enough about my lack of sex life) - I'm on earlies this week and hence am f**king swamped with merchant bankers (and that they *definitely* are) asking me to sort their pooter problems out. Sarah - the best suggestion I have come up with so far for a name for your fish is Blofeld. Mainly because he had bug-eyes as well. Or what about BloBubbles? BloThisI'mOffDownThePub?? There's a whole range of excruciatingly bad puns to be made there, methinks...... And thank-you, juniper, for making my day a complete misery. Believe me, the name of Dr. Claw's cat not only totally escapes me, but is really going to bug the living shit out of me all day ;-). I hate it when that happens. The last time was when I spent the best part of a week desperately wracking my booze-addled brain, trying to remember the theme tune to "Bod". I got it in the end, but only with the help of a shed load of psychotropic drugs and some bloke with a big stick continually threatening to hit me with it if I didn't remember. It's surprising the amount of things that brings back, you know. Anyway, must dash - there's people shouting at me already. Bastards. lol p xx. -- ---------------------------*||*------------------------------ Life is full of regrets, and I've had a few, as Frank Sinatra once sang, before hiccuping loudly and falling over sideways.

Sinister: the future of what?
by Spiral Stairs 27 May '99

27 May '99

hey all, first post :] the hero of this story is from toronto, tho he finds it kinda boring a lot of the time. he plays music, loves stanley kubrick and has a really messy room. he also hates writing in the third person, so enough of that... in my cd player now: come on die young/mogwai, falbes of the reconstruction/rem, and hard for measy for you/guv'ner [you really should listen to them if you don't already!] anyways, so this post isn't completely useless, i've decided to put my vast knowledge of everything that is completely useless to everyday life to use, and answer the inspector gadget question... the answer is... the cat had no name really; tho i think dr claw called it madcat or something similar occasionally. not overly original, but such a great cartoon show! ahh the halcyon days of youth... peace/john these hands--the hands that care, the hands that mold; the hands that touch the lips, the lips that speak the words-- the words that tell us we are whole. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister:nwmeet-up,zines,pets,parents,&books
by COURTOLY＠aol.com 27 May '99

27 May '99

Dahlings I'm assisting Elle with the Northwest USA Meet-up on June 27th. If you haven't contacted either of us yet please do so. I'll have invitations with the place and information soon. >uh oh, jessicaxo, there comes competition... do you have a homepage >yet, Courtney? No homepage yet but if you want to see the tatoo I sent the photo to Honey to be added to the sinister photo page. I haven't had time to scan the mud wrestling photos...and what are we in competition for? > Anyone else maimed their parents? Yes. I used to fight with my parents every day. My dad was chasing me around the house and at the time my bed was in the livingroom while they were repainting my bedroom. He chased me there and I ended up on my back with him hovering over me. I kicked him in the chest and he had to be rushed to the hospital. They took an x-ray and he called home and told me I broke his ribs. That was a lie. What a way to make a little girl cry, my mom told me the truth. I hadn't broken his ribs, the doctor said they were already broken and had been re-snapped. Turns out the baffoon had been in the Hard Rock Cafe a week before during a business trip, had slipped on a toothpick, fallen over a chair, and broken two ribs that way. His friends who were there confirmed this, but he didn't want anyone to know about his fall and he hadn't gone to the hospital. They were healing just fine when I kicked them back out of place. I had a sad day. I started a zine library here two years ago and we have thousands of zines for people to read in this nice coffee shop. Well, the coffee shop is closing Monday which leaves the zines homeless. They are in my trust so for now they will sleep in my garage, but I need to find a studio space or someplace to put them. And if any of you lovely folks have zines you make or zines you want to donate: 120 State Ave NE #1206 Olympia WA 98501 USA is the mailbox address. I might have an intern this summer to help get nonprofit status for the zine library, and I'm hoping to move it into a real library or get lots of grant money to put it in its own home after that happens. >If anyone has ever seen a guinea pig that is not in a school or in a >pen with a rabbit, could you let me know? I'd like to put it in my >I Spy book of pets - they're very rare, you know. I had a guinea pig named Snaggle Doodles after the Patricia Rilley Giff book from the Kids of the Polk Street School series. It lived at my house for three months but we were too allergic to keep her. I gave her to the kindergarden class at my nursery school and she lived there for seven years. So she wasn't in school for a bit. Are there any fans of Francesca Lia Block here? I think her books are lovely. They're supposed to be for Young Adults which means they are a quick read, but the prose is wonderful. Here is a sexy bit from her latest book "I Was A Teenage Fairy": In Todd's house Barbie and Todd were flying horizontally in front of the fireplace, their mouths tearing carnivorously, practically cannibalistically, at each other even though one of them was a vegan and the other had given up red meat. and a sad bit... Griffin took a swig frm the bottle of J.D. He lit the bong and had a hit. The ugly mushroom-colored, slack-lipped, balding ghots kept spinning around inside of him, no matter how much alcohol or smoke he used to drive them out. So the books deal with a lot of issues about AIDS and art and incest and fairytales and Los Angeles...just lovely.

Sinister: go go gadget bum!
by Kt788＠aol.com 27 May '99

27 May '99

Did anyone out in the land of Sinister used to watch Inspector Gadget? If so, I need your help. What was the name of Dr. Claw's cat? I've been trying to remeber all day, but I can't and i'm going absolutely insane. I don't know why I need to know this, I guess it's just one of those things. I must find out. On the subject of pet names, I had a turtle for about a day named Reginald Boxworth. But he was smelly and no fun so I put him back in the woods. Both my cat and my dog have really stupid names but I didn't name them. I always think animals should get regular names, like Tony or Dave or Nancy or something like that. If I get another cat I'm going to name it James, even if it's a girl. Or Oswald. Oh well, if anyone knows the answer, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it. sleepy time now. juniper ****************************************************************** To live outside the law you must be honest. -bob dylan ****************************************************************** +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: I was slipping into darkness
by Robyn Davidson 27 May '99

27 May '99

Hey y'all I too named my cat after Ben Folds. Everyone called him something really stupid, like Blackie at first but they came to their senses. I want to get another cat and call him Julius. He'll have to be orange though, just because. I quite like the name Sebastian too, always have. I was talking to some strange people once and we were telling what we wanted to name our children. I said Sebastian for a boy and they all went "like the crab?" NO! Not the like stupid crab you imbiciles. But now I can't ever have a child named Sebastian. And my one goal in life right now is to make the shot from the crack in the driveway. Well, make that two. The other being to pull the wool over tourists eyes long enough to make them think I'm lovely so they'll leave me big tips. Oh, I just got a job as a waitress at this fancy shmancy restaurant, so that might make more sense now. Everyone in the Virginia Beach area should come to The Lighthouse and ask for the tall redhead. I don't eat seafood so I have no idea if the food's that great or not. I was much more interesting earlier today. Anyway I DO IN FACT have a point for posting. I was wondering if anyone knew the background song in the new Volvo c70 commercial. I like it lots but have never heard the voice. Some kind of accent I believe, and I can't quite catch the words though. Something about being dark, and couldn't see for hours. I'm humming it right now if that helps. SOMEONE must know. Probably to shoddy a description though, unfortunately. As far as the list crush thing goes - I always vote the same person when I go. Anyway, thanks a lot if anyone knows what I'm talking about as far as the song goes. Robyn, but my friends call me Arben _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
