Thanks to the deluded yet still kind individuals that bestowed list crush votes upon me =) I guess my inane ramblings weren't enough to scare you away. And that scares me..

Sinister: He's so gorgeous, don't ya know?(says the formerly funkyseb)
by Essexdog5＠aol.com 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

Yes it was me. I auditioned ages ago for the video. They taped me while I had a great time jumping about like a deacon, and then I went home for a well deserved slice of cake and slosh of tea. (From my trouser tea pot.) Anyway, a few weeks later, they phoned and said that I looked so stupid that they wanted to use me in the video anyway, and paid me 2s 6d for my effort. I'm not formerly of the list incidentally- it's just that certain honeys have been asking me to come back on, and then leaving me in the nursery for 3 months. Arrrrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh! You realise that I nearly got sacked over the whole female masturbation scenario? And I still can't post. Bang out of order, that's what I call it. Incidentally, I'm currently following in the footsteps of our good friend Roger W!H!O! Daltry by appearing in Britain's poppermost pig flick, The Bill. I play a crusty scumbag. I'm in other stuff too excitingly, but I'm not going to tell you, cause I'm STILL IN THE NURSERY. AFTER 3 MONTHS. and subsequentally sulking. I'm not even going to tell you about the ghost I saw or anything. That'll learn yer. <bugger off!> says funkyseb +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Nick Drake etc.
by Chris Jones 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

chris.jones(a)saqnet.co.uk For those who were asking/wondering, the Nick Drake album I listened to was called Five Leaves Fall or something like that. I have just got out Best II by The Smiths. It agrees with me a little more than others, but the artists I think are most B&Sesque are Simon And Garfunkel. I don't know if anyone else agrees with me on this one?

Sinister: a valuable tip and a thankyou..
by Marianne Bratlie 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

Thankyou to those who mailed me regarding Glasgow and Edinburgh, it seemes like I have to find a new date though, and this is where my valueable tip gets into the pickture. There are two "boys" (men really) who calls themselves "kings of convenience", they are from Bergen, where I`m from, and quite accidentaly, I -among 20 others saw them at saturday. Oh my God, I am in love with a band.(They played ac. guitars) They are being connected with Belle and Sebastian and Nick Drake, and I believe they will be noticed in the near future, it`s just a matter of time. They haven`t released their album yet, i believe it`s due in September,-but that`s probably just in Norway, there`s something called import though,...or I could fix a tape for you. Kings of... are just wonderfull, fantastic, at least the stuff I`ve heard, and the reason why my trip must be set to another date is that they are playing in Bergen the third of sept. Can`t miss it for anything in the world. (so if you are in Bergen -go see them at "Hulen") That was all, Have a nice day.

Sinister: The time of joking is upon us...
by bkim0＠dept.english.upenn.edu 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

I'll take up the explanation of the "Where's the soap" joke because I am not ashamed of displaying my depravity, nay I revel in it. So it's a homophonic (quite!) joke, the implied meaning "(It) wears the soap (down)" by rubbing it between their legs...I think. I mean, I don't know what else nuns do for that kind of fun (though the crucifixes in each room are a rather nice miniature size aren't they?). Anyway, if I've gotten that wrong let me know. It's the first time I've heard that joke but maybe it's a UK nun joke or something. Now I feel like contributing to the Tuesday morning mirth. Well, I'll offer a clean one and a dirty one cause you need that nice yin n' yang balance in most everything. Clean: Did you hear about the Roman who was in a chariot accident? When the medics arrived, they hooked him up to a four. (groan) Dirty/sacrilicious: What's white and shoots across the sky? The coming of the Lord! (gasp) OK then, you've all been a great audience, take my wife please.

Sinister: how does the man in the moon cut his hair?...
by Kimberly Rehak 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

...eclipse it! thank a square of laughy taffy for that one (it was printed on the wrapper). ********************** yo ho ho sinster folk! i'm going to have to switch digest form because i can't keep my short, "stumpy" (a very not nice nickname some friends at school gave me because i'm not as speedy as them) legs up with the pace of this list. and besides, they are actually making me WORK here, er, at work, imagine that. pfft, stumpy me can't keep up. i bought rainbow cigarettes yesterday. remember, if you're feeling obsessive...maREE, the professional hand-clapper, and i are compliling a list of "you KNOW that you're a belle and sebastian fan if/when..." for my zine and ANY contributions will be wonderful. please send them to: lifeinpink(a)yahoo.com and we will be eternally grateful. for reward, um, maybe i'll give you another joke? you'd like that, wouldn't you? speaking of zines, i found some shiny stars in the dollar store the other day which i'm going to buy for mine when i get some cash (i bought the rainbowed ciggies with a check--how lame!). dollar stores so so fab. i bought a corkboard and 1056 stickers and a little book called "i love my kitten". the girl at the counter gave me strange looks (especially when i returned to buy my co-workers the exact same things) but i was gleeeeful for the rest of the night. i say: "hooray for materialism!" i realize that this had no relevance to anything. mmmmmmm, but will i stop?? NO! mark castriotta chevrolet: since you are always complaining about becoming an old geezer, i have to ask you something. are you going to grow facial hair? i ask because i'm amazed of this phenomenon...no, not john travolta...i want to know why men feel the NEED to grow facial hair as they grow older! does it make them feel more manly? my dad has facial hair: a mustache but he's had it my entire life and he was not that old when i was born. i'm forever trying to get him to shave it off. when i was little i always thought it was olive green so now i tease him about that...i waited on a woman with facial hair last night. damn, i'm devoid of transition once again! i'm almost finished reading "seymour: an introduction" by jd salinger, of this parish. after you put on your hiking boots and trudge through the first half the second part is wonderful. i want to start a seymour glass fan club. mmmmmmmm....any buyers? anyone see "the sixth sense"? apart from having to pay too too much to enter ($8) and nursing a sore neck afterwards (i had to crane my neck around a fence to see the screen), mmmm, i liked it. the ending, mostly. wait until it comes for $2 and go see it! ok, you guys, i'm off to conquer the world. oh didn't you know? i'm a superhero. the LAMINATOR! off to the file room...<grumble grumble> i DO wish i was a powerpuff girl, though. lots of love and pinches on the bum, KIMberlyboBIMberly <pinch!> icq# 39199492 === ***************************************************************************** "i love my kitten. she washes her paws and face in such a grown-up-cat way." - _i love my kitten_ ***************************************************************************** +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Dog on Wheels
by Theresa Lowe 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

I am afraid to say that the only B&S reference in this post is the subject line and the mood i am in i just don't care! Today my doggy died and i am very sad. My dog was twelve years old so he has been with me since i was 10, which is a long time, he was really part of the family, you know? Sorry to inflict this on you, by the way, but i am sitting at work and i really cannot be arsed with it at all. Might have to sneak out for a fag in a minute. *sigh* I know a boy who also fancied Cheetarah, i personally had a thing for the little white one out of the flumps. I know someone who used to draw for the Animals of Fathing Wood, does this count as a claim to fame? Ok, so its not as good as your grandad being on a pop video but surely it still counts. ho hum.

Sinister: the marvellous mechanical mouse organ
by Archel1978＠aol.com 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

blake - isobel and sarah and mick aren't mentioned in modern rock song because as i understand it the song was written a while ago when indeed there were just four boys in corduroy. but, anyway, 'we're 5 boys and 2 girls in our corduroys and pinafore dresses' doesn't scan as well. cheetarah reference - my sister and i used to spend hours in stitches because we thought that there was a character called Shit-ara in Thundercats. we were easily pleased as children, especially by rude words. apparently the eclipse can still blind you even if it's cloudy (and it will be, oh yes.) i'm going to make a pinhole camera - we did this at school but i can't remember what's involved. a pin comes into it somewhere, i imagine. and arantxa - feel free to wear your sandals and get mystical with my boyfriend (?) but your toes will get wet. that's all i'm saying. the inner bitch has retreated slightly, which is lucky as i have an interview this afternoon and i don't think it would go down too well if i let loose all my hormones and started screaming that 'i don't want your poxy job anyway, you evil capitalist scum! i need to run free, feel sinister and sleep the clock around.' although if they gave me free email access then i could probably swallow my principles. i get the 'where's the soap' joke, by the way. but i'm probably depraved, and i'm certainly not going to get my terminology in a twist by trying to explain it. someone else can do that, i need to keep my mind pure for this afternoon. luv archel xxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: if you go to Cornwall, put some flowers in your hair...
by Arantxa Sanz 10 Aug '99

10 Aug '99

Hiya! I am a hippy.So I was told when i was 18 by my best male-friend because I was fond of sandals, more or less.Which in my case, it implied an obnoxious exhibition of my always blistered toes,true, and it is not the most esthetical of choices, especially to my friend, who is named Oscar after the greatest of all somdomites. So, as a hippy, as Blurrily-Gorgeous-Archel cleverly pointed, I am going down to Cornwall to celebrate in a brotherly fashion with those others of my kin that eclipse.To Devon, to be precise, which according to Tim P-O-P!king-s is a hippies reserve, these latter converted to teachers.Archel's boyfriend is one of us and Archel is one of the embittered partners left behind because of their multiple obligations , like mine, who must be reading this (...), commenting : 'it will be cloudy anyway,my squeeze'. It will be cloudy, yes, but that won't impoverish the mystical experience, you see. No B&S content, but Who's!: I started the TV last night expecting to see something else which was on the Guide, but instead of that , Roger Daltrey (60's one) was there! I thought there was something going on, a coup d'etat, for instance and Keith Watson would be the next Queen Mum. Anyhow it was a rockdumentary about suicidal tendencies and so on.It was strange they didn't comment anything on Nick Drake, as it has been so vindicated lately in the media. Scottish women are scary? Men are insensitive to accents? Not the ones I know.Scottish and West Country girls are incredingbly attractive to some people,allegedly.And in Spanish, normally French accent is considered very cute.Anyhow, Gail Porter seems very friendly to me.Very approachable, at least from the back, which is the part we are more familiarised.And Ailsa. Not Isobel ( cold trout, quoting Starry Estrella) Love Arantxa +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".
