Sinister: love is a five-letter word
by Jeremy.Simon＠jwt.com 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

The reclusive American author's alter ego, Jeremy.Simon(a)JWT.com, took a long draw on his cheroot, and exhaling began to ramble... 1) I have been struck recently by all this talk of love. In particular, the idea of having a single perfect partner out there in the world, just waiting to be found. Life as quest, constantly disappointing... I was particularly intrigued by Arantxa's Spanish phrase "half an orange", referring to ideal partners. It reminded me of a Classics lesson I was taught long ago. I hazily remember learning about Plato's thesis on love, "Symposium" but I was half asleep for much of my school years, and so probably got it wrong. As I recall, Aristophanes expounds on his theory that when the world was young, humans were actually these giant balls of flesh that went rolling round the place, happy as larry. One dreadful day, for reasons I don't fully understand, the balls were all cut in half, leaving each half-sphere as the basic human form as we know it. Aristophanes suggests that each half spends the rest of his/her life searching for the other perfect match. When he/her finds that long lost match, they unite and combine in perfect harmony, forming through the medium of great sex the original fleshy mass. But then again, what did they know. They were all Romans. Or something. 2) I think I'll leave the thread on female masturbation well alone. Just as in real life, it's better to observe than take part. 3) In Trousers' last post, all of the abbreviation marks were replaced on my computer with solid vertical lines, giving the whole page the look of one of those old music rolls people used to entertain themselves with before gramophones. Which I liked. 4) I hope everyone has seen the rebelstrange site. The photos of B&S are ace. Stuart Murdoch grins like a thin-faced monkey. That is all. I'm off to visit the Kirsty Smith website. J. D. Salinger, pleased because he has got "Plato", "Aristophanes" and "Kirsty Smith" on the Sinister archive search. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "you take a really sleepy man, Esmé, and he always stands a chance of again becoming a man with all his fac - with all his f-a-c-u-l-t-i-e-s intact" +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: RV: Love is Like a Butterfly
by PJMiller 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

Dear all, I sent this to the list from a different address (birds, eh?) and got a nice automatic message back from The Honey Band telling me how what I was in the nursery and wasn't allowed to join in. I was tempted to leave it at that, but this seemed like a God given opportunity to say: Andrew wrote: my mom masturbates. i found a vibrator under her bed a number of years ago. maybe she doesn't want all these people knowing, but i'm not ashamed. I'm outing my mom (beverly) as a masturbator. Stand proud, Beverly! and then wrote: that's all! hello to all my sinister friends. you're all invited over for dinner if you ever make it out to san francisco! Just how big is your kitchen, Andrew? Your mother will think we all smile a lot. I wrote: >I've recieved literally thousands of complaints (mostly from girls) >about my treatment of Kevan Cooke. I admit it, I was wrong, and I >apologise. It's not that I don't think Kevan is immature, I do, but I >wholeheartedly approve of his immaturity, and hope to be able to >compare fat slugs with him outside that chalet window at Camber Sands. >I was just using Kevan as a cheap ploy to get the girls to spill the >beans about, you know, IT. Sadly all we've got so far is a pile of >boys' opinions on the matter. Not the original intention. I haven't >received any complaints really, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's >been grumbling in certain quarters. > >Isn't "Ceremony" a New Order cover of a Joy Division song? If so, it >doesn't matter whether Tigermilk is at the front or the back of your >B&S collection, but it must be upside down and back to front. > >Yesterday I saw a Blur video with a little milk carton in it. > >One of my favourite people in the world is/was Joaquin Rodrigo, the >composer. I wasn't very upset when he died the other week, mainly >because I thought he was dead already. There are two reasons why I >like Rodrigo. Firstly, because he was blind, and he wrote some music >for James Galway, who was in a wheelchair at the time, and when James >Galway went to see Rodrigo, who was sitting sightlessly at his piano >waitng for him, James Galway ploughed into him in his wheelchair by >accident. This is also the reason I like James Galway. Secondly, >Rodrigo's beautiful Concierto de Aranjuez was apparently inspired by >the unfortunate death of his baby daughter (I think). At the end of >the second movement (the famous "duh-duh-duh" bit), you can hear some >ascending notes which are meant to represent the baby's soul going up >to Heaven. I got all this from a television documentary, and I've >probably remembered it wrong, because most people seem to think it's >about a walk in the park. I offer this as a footnote to the great Love >debate on the list, and as my entry to Trousers' sad songs >competition. > >So, Will, did you get your end away on that boat, or what? Did you >manage to WEIGH ANCHOR or was there NO PORT IN THE STORM, leaving you >unable to HOIST THE JOLLY ROGER, practically RUDDERLESS, alone with >MIDSHIPMAN PERCY on a storm-TOSSED sea at the mercy of REAR ADMIRAL >BACKPASSAGE and his WHITBREAD ROUND THE WORLD YACHT RACE? > >Sister Disco > +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Is it cos I's black?
by Paula Cullen 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

hey, this is *very* out of character, i can assure you, but this is going to be a rude post. everyone else is doing it, so i just thought "fuck it! why not?" (shit, i'd better not say "fuck" though, because the last time i said "fuck" on the list, somebody objected to me saying "fuck") they said i had a mouth like a docker. i wish i had a mouth like a *rocker*. steve tyler from aerosmith, to be precise. then i could put WHOLE oranges in my mouth, and believe me, where i come from, there is a LOT of social cachet attached to inserting whole citrus fruits into ones bodily orifaces. (this bit may or may not be true - the reader decides...) anyway, here is my tuppence worth on the wanking subject: 1. buffing the bean. 2. polishing the pea. i did not make these up. honestly. next rude bit: i noticed there was someone on this list called "GUI". (hello!) is that pronounced "GUY" or "GEE"? because if it was "GEE" that would be funny :) "GEE" is a rude word, you know, for a ladys bits. me and fiona met an american boy called "GEE" one night. we blushed and giggled when he outstretched his hand to shake ours and said "GEE". "thats a bit forward" we thought. "we hardly know him......" hello to fiona by the way. she wont subsribe to sinister, but reads it every day on the internet. *lurker*........ everyone WAVE and POINT at fiona - it will embarass her :) i think thats quite enough rudeness for the moment. hang on.............not.......quite........finished............ "thrupenny bits out for the lads!!!!!!" aaahhhhhh........that outta do it. paula cullen booze explosion booooze!!!! yeeeaaahh!!! p.s hello to becka and martin/mark? whom i met i london, completely by accident. oh, and the spanish girl outside the Good Mixer. :)+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: flying over canyons.......
by rebelstrange＠ldd.net 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

sometimes i wonder what the non posting people do as well. i think shuddering, "i could not POSSIBLY be one of those horrible cliquey people" the thought of someone being afriad to talk to me because i'm too cool, is frankly hilarious and laughable. it's a bit of an ego boost being online where i'm able to bluster and rant and rave and act like a badass, when i'm actully this short nearsighted incredibly nerdy shut-in girl who's never been kissed. i guess that's the definition of the sinister list aint' it, harhar.... all i need now are some NHS specs and a cardigan collection and i'd be well set. isn't this a laugh..... i'm acting so funny and retarded and i dont' care. i feel like i'm in a play or something. sorry i'm having one of those existentiual moments where everythign seems ridiculous and surreal. i got two vvery nice cd's this week. one is Illusions, Ute Lemper does the songs of marlene dietrich/edith piaf. it's GGGGLLLAMOROUS!!!!!! *siiiiiiiiigggghhhhhh* the other one is More ABBA gold. and it's fucking extreme dude. it will blow your fucking mind. it's the shiznit. especially "head over heels' and "Cassandra" ****Yet Another Installment of "AS THE BREAD MOLDS" your favorite dyke-ish soap opera. when we last met our young protagonist, it was all standard. girl meets girl, girl lusts after girl, girl meets bulldyke, bulldyke helps girl get with girl. then it started to get weird. bullke lusts after girl, bulldyke gropes girl, girls get majorly pissed at bulldyke. girl number one puts a black magic spell on bulldyke, after promptly vomiting. but what of girl number two--will she escape the nefarious machinations of bulldyke's perverted obsession, or will living the same apartment complex get to be too close for comfort? and what of girl number one's unrequited love for girl number two? will it rend their friendship at the roots? adn what of the vomit inducing thought coursing through her head? will her witchy spells be the perfect revenge, or will instant karma gonna get her? tune in next time, when she'll be out of town anyway and none of it will really matter. Darling Blakie says: >tem 2. female masturbation. this has always bothered me. no, not the act itself, but the fact that every bird that has ever discussed it always denies ever doing anything. what a load of pish! it's similar to denying one's own >ature for fear of embarassment. that just irritates me. like they're SOO above it all. with guys i guess it's easier for them to talk about it. cos their sexuality is pretty much hanging out for all to see, so it would be dumb to ignore it. women still have to deal with all these Puritan issues. we're way behind, because back in olden days, they stil thought that women had like no sexual desire, so they didnt' teach girls anythign about it. so it's like ingrained in our culture i guess. i for one am glad i'm a girl. and i've discussed this with ppl. women are sexually superior. now dont' go getting all pissed at me. they ARE. women can do awesome sexual feats that men can't even touch. and we have a highly holistic erotic capability. polymorphous if you will. women have the only organ in the human body that is made exclusively to give pleasant feelings. what does that tell you? any girl who says she don't know, is either lying or weird,they're missing out. it's practically a crime. it's your own body you have a right to understand it. guys are brought up to enjoy sexuality, girls are taught to always be polite. it's rubbish. (if you don't mind me saying so) it's like either extreme, boys are taught to go too far, girls are taught to pretned they don't have naughty bits. I know i was. and i did. ladies heed my words, it will mess you up. i mean, ignoring it will. Look at me for pete's sake. you wanna turn out like me?? i didnt' think so. Love, i dont' know what to say, i think it's different for everyone, i dont thin there is any absolute rule in love, except you gotta trust and be honest with anyone you love, without trust and respect and absolute honesty, there is no love, only fake acting and pretend feeligns. whether there is "one" true love, i think is a moot point. if there is, you will find them. it's silly to think "what if my true love is some Sumatran bushman i'll never meet". obviously it's only love if you meet the person, love only happens when you get to know someone, love grows and it's about changing. or if it's not, then you'll be about flirting, and that' s good for you if you like it. i just don't make up rules about it. attraction and love involve so many different parts of ourselves. you can go Jungian and talk about the shadow, I do. anima, animus. gender lines......... who can say? you change, maybe love can change, or maybe not, maybe you'll find another one, maybe not, it's all the same. i tend to think that what happens happens. like "wherever you go, there you are" i dont' see any use trying to figure it out on a large scale. i don' think that is like predestination, it's just that you make one choice after another, and things roll down like dominoes, and you work with what you get. maybe in some other dimension you made another choice. i'm not really too picky. my world view is pretty messed up though, i dont' expect any of this to make any sense so i'll jsut shut up, cos i dont' realyl like talking about love.............. i'd rather be experiencing it. "All is full of love, you just ain't receiving" --bjork oh yeah, and ll that chemical garbage, may be true in this world, but you gotta reach for the stars if you want the real deal know what i mean? science may be good for you right now, but ain't gonna help you none when you are flying out there in the cosmic ether, dreaming your own reality. and no i'm not on acid right now. there is the pheremone of immediacy, then there is the something beyond, you have to be strong to see it though. that's something i believe.

Sinister: heatwave/the Who->/smidgeons of smut (attn: Jessica)
by OLDSCHREC＠aol.com 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

My a/c is broken and I think I'm beginning to melt like the wicked witch. Even repeatededly continously plays of remastered "Tigermilk" are quite soothing but not quite cooling things down enuff. Thanks to the almighty spirit that a repairman will be here tomorrow to rectify the situation. It's predicted to be 99 degrees here in Chi-town on Thursday. To Blake and other Who-> die-hards ( I used to be one in the 70's-I'm showing my age or musical prowess until Moon died), Eddie Vedder is performing with Mr. Townshend doing "Heart To Hang On To" right now on David Letterman. Yes, Quadrophenia helped me survive the disillisioned and angst-driven teen years too during the 70's and early 80's. I feel like sending Mr. Townshend a "Father's Day" card like Vedder too). Also, the Who-> have an extensive feature in the new Goldmine magazine that is worth checking out if you are a die-hard. I used to be a die-hard but I gave up on classic rock obsession when Moon died except for Marc Bolan & T.Rex which I've been religiously into since 1972 but wouldn't ever consider classic rock here in the states. Tyrannosaurus Rex from 1967-70 is the shit and 1971-77 is good enuff to remain precious to the golden few. As for the obligatory smut ( apologies because I've drank 6 beers already of a quickly-demolished 6-pack tonight---I'm off on Thursdays and may be more expressive than my usually tight-lipped inhibitous self) with regard to the list-crush phenomenon that has known to carry a heavy presence on this list according to Select and other periodicals and reaffirmed by sultry select listees (god bless you people w/ hearts) and w/o sounding too depraved and , I do approve of the polaroid, digital camera, etc... technologies and must express approval at web sites that allow us to meet our fellow list members in a more vulnerable yet tasteful and innocent way. Isn't that what the internet should be a vehicle for in some circles? If I had a digital camera and a website, I'd open it up to the world the same way.... I don't think I could trust my local photo-mat with any pics though. Everytime I used to try the negatives and pics would be missing. Polaroids and digital cameras are the medium if you want to be tasteful and secure. Jessica, your physique is shapely but your shapely figure could hold any audience captive including me. As a fine artist, if you would be interested in modeling, I would pay you most handsomely although I think the distance from Chicago would be a problem.....

Sinister: this emory board is giving me a rash
by kevin-m 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

wooohoooo!!!!! i've finally caught up after being 212 sinister emails behind. i was sick last week and was away from email for a while. i've been sick for weeks. if it lasts for very much longer i'll be known as the boy who's always coughing. (i've also learned to keep my kleenex on top of the computer monitor at work so it stays nice and warm. macgyver would be proud, although he's probably never sick). re: sleeks sounds...ron sexsmith sightings in a church. ...a few months ago i saw him at a church in toronto but he wasn't performing, he was sitting two pews behind me at a rufus wainwright concert. i couldn't bring myself to say hi(it was packed). i didn't realize there were so many listees from toronto.canada. we should all get together soon. the dc listees aren't all that far either... we could rent buses and have a belle&sebastien picnic somewhere in the middle(of course we'd have to paint them tigerstripped). the looper show in toronto was grand. i've finally posted pictures on my web site: www.members.tripod.com/lofemo (i think someone i know taped a copy so i'll post that too[in real audio/mp3] as soon as i can, promise) this is getting a little long so i'll go. i've got to sleep for a big day of doing a whole lotta nothing at work. razamafras i can't remember any good quotes why does it seem obligatory to end emails with quotes from other people ? i think i'll quote myself. screw the cult of celebrity. "razamafras" - K.Marchand, as taken from "selected poems from a broken typewriter which only works on tuesdays and never prints doubleyous"(c)1999 thanks for the emails, your pixelated words are brilliance hughs and kisses. kevin. _____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Sinister: The loneliness of a long-play record
by gareth james 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

I have been on the list for about 3 months now but this is my first mail . I have enjoyed reading all your mails but have not posted until I actually had something interesting and relevant to say as not to boor you all shitless .Which is something I am about to do anyway Marcus wrote : >i had a look through all my dad's old seven inches. i don't actually like >seven inches that much >- i don't think they're as pretty as cds, and twelve inches are much >cooler. > why didn't sixties bands put things on twelves? but i digress... >anyway, the wonderful 'loneliness of a middle distance runner' was going >through my head, and my heart jumped up a notch when i found one of those >soft seven inch things that i think used to be used for promos et cetera - >they're all floppy when you shake them around. and it was called'the >loneliness of a long play record (33 1/3 rpm)'. and so i rushed over to >the vinyl machine and laid it down. I disagree .Vinal no matter what form is always better than soulless cd's .60's records were not realised on 12' because they were not made commercially available until 1976 (don't ask me how I know that). I think that record is probably worth a small fortune because most of them would have been discarded or destroyed . If you want to play it place it on top of another record and place a one pence (or any other small coin in the centre) and then it won't skip as it gets close to the middle . I think had better tell you all a little about myself since it is my first email . b&s and this mailing list is a godsend to me as I work 4week on a boat in the north sea and then I get 4 weeks off (which I normally spend in London) .I would love to meet some of you from the list but all the picnics seem to coinside with my time on the boat. Any planed for 11 of August till the 16 of September and I will gladly come along .I am aways up for a beer or two. Tigermilk is just great . I saved it up for three days before I came away so I would have something to look forward to . As you can imagine there is not much to do on the boat apart from read listen to music and wank .So its all very B&S out here . I fact one of my fellow worker's spotted IYFS in my cd'd (I now I said cd's are soulless but its a bit difficult to play vinal on the high sea's).He put it on the cd player saying that he loved them.I then told him that I had a copy of Tigermilk .How did you get that/1000 copies ...etc . Needless to say I have not seen it since . What do you think separates a great band like B&S and an average one . I think it's when you hear the record it sounds so familiar like your favorite top or pair to trainers . They remind me of all my favorite bands but still sound unlike anyone else .They would have stood out as a great band any time over the last four decades . One last thing loosely connected to the loneliness of a long-play record .Did anyone work out which version of 'what goes on' they covered. Was it the Beatles or V.U .Both are great records but I think a cover of the Beatles one would be more Interesting but I am hoping its both .

Sinister: sultry strings are sexy
by Blake E Hamilton 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

fluffy pastries, now i intend on writing a coherent (rather than than the other night's centre o babble) post that has some relevant something-er-uther content about lots of things that will hopefully bring smiles to all of your faces. item 1. you know there are only 50 er so of us (maybe less, who's counting?) who actually post on a regular basis, so what do the other 950 do? do they laugh, cackle, or do they stare in awe, and are they intimidated by our clique-ness? i can for one say i know of zero cliques, maybe because i'm not in one, considering i think i'm the only sinister within 500 miles or so. yes, maybe it is me. so i shall wave to all those who are perhaps too shy or formal to post their thoughts. i'm waving, right now, can you see me? item 2. female masturbation. this has always bothered me. no, not the act itself, but the fact that every bird that has ever discussed it always denies ever doing anything. what a load of pish! it's similar to denying one's own nature for fear of embarassment. that's almost like denying yourself food because you think people will think you're a pig hound if you eat at all. masturbation, food...bad metaphor, but someone may see my point. my favorite euphenism for female masturbation, though crude, is 'flicking the bean'. hee hee haw haw! item 3. love. it's a fickle thing. and it does not surprise me at all that chemically love physically fades within our bodies as the days progress. it grows weary, and then retires, and you're left with a bit of a enigma. but i'm sure love floats and dives and flips through breezeless summer days when it does exist, ever so briefly. i've always thought that love is a bit like a ghost, and it haunts, so to speak. it stays with you, and watches over you, and protects you. at least, that's how i envision it. these flowery depictions of love will probably be shattered when my true love dumps me for a touring chimp puppet stagehand, but for now i'd like to think of it as a natural, nylon enclosed packet of yummy that i can buy for a nickel. item 4. b&s content, yippee! upon my enormous road trip this past week, i attempted to convert my pop loving friend (the bad pop, you know what i mean) to b&s. overall, it was pretty unsuccessful, as he commented on struan's high voice (which i immediately jumped in and classified as a folk twee falsetto) and how it sounded too nice or something to that effect. he liked tigermilk the most, i believe. but i built up 'she's losing it' too much before it played, i think. i have a habit of inserting notes on the next song in that 2 second gap between tracks. i usually get cut off. argh. and that's all, will you remember me, anyone? blake xx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
