28 Aug '99

och ay the noo, as they're supposed to say up here in the bonny highlands. or 'fuck off you english twat', as they really say. wow, the people up here REALLY don't seem to like the english - i didn't think you could hate someone so much just because their voice was different. oh well. i think scots accents are kind of sexy... obviously the attraction isn't mutual, or if it is it's rather repressed... anyway, enough of that crap. i think my lovely girlyfriend has already mentioned it, but there's going to be a HUGE picnic on primrose hill on saturday 4th september. meet up at CHALK FARM TUBE at TWO IN THE AFTERNOON and bring YOUR LOVELY SELVES and A LOT OF BOOZE AND FOOD. and don't be shy if you've never been to a picnic before - they're great fun. see you all there. and see you all at bowlie 2 - all tomorrow's panties... natasha and i are sharing a chalet with the ever-so-drunken-but-ever-so-lovely matt, and so if you see us staggering around after having imbibed all his booze come and say hi. i'm quivering in anticipation... um, oh yes. is anyone else thinking of seeing sparklehorse at the garage? because i like them. righteeho, that's about it. better see how my list crush is doing... if i'm top of the list at any point i'll send in a photo of me either in a nurses uniform or in the buff, playing a cello... please vote for me... oh, and martin, i'm off to vote for you now. can't wait to get back to london and regular internet access tomorrow... love Marcus XXX ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Caught up in the snog of old london town
by Sam Norman 28 Aug '99

28 Aug '99

I saw Smog last night. I thought i'd just let you all know that. We bumped into a couple of other listees there (hello!!). I'd never heard them before, don't get me wrong i'd heard of them but not of what they do. Paradise Motel were the first support who bored me to death, then Black Box Recorder who I was really looking forward to. But half way through their set i needed the toilet had to leave and when i came back I couldn't find a seat anywhere from which i could see anything. It was at the Union Chapel (all thoughs hazy memories must flood back now) Smog to be honest also bored me. They just didn't seem to have anything. They need a bassist cause the music just wasn't going anywhere, and the didn't now when to stop. Bassist are good aren't they. ANyway we met them afterwards. God was the singer rude. Didn't smile once. The other guitarist was nice though we had a chat about Foyles the Book shop on Charing Cross road, which he seemed to enjoy. Then we left. A very belated thanks to everyone who came to Tigermilking hope you all enjoyed yourselves.

Throw words out so needlessly...but I do it anyway Well, I sold them all (books) for about $75 with a $15 credit I have yet to spend. Maybe Genevieve could take it down to the Glebe and spend it for me! I will be moving from shoebox to shoebox...this town is next to Tokyo in rent:poverty ratio (or is that irratio - blah) Gute Wochenende!

Sinister: NYC SINISTER MEET UP
by Michele Waggner 28 Aug '99

28 Aug '99

NY Area Sinisterines : In celebration of the big Sinister Birthday (we are in our "terrible twos") we are meeting up in NYC on Saturday night. We hope to be joined by Mr. Martin Robinson of London and this list -- and some of his friends. Anyone in the NYC area who finds themself with time on their hands should try to join us -- information below. Apparently there is both food and liquor at this spot, suggested with love and a sinister mind by a former listee. The more the merrier. I guess someone will be wearing a badge... If you have any questions, please mail me off the list. I'll check until about 3 p.m. Saturday afternoon. SINISTER INFORMAL MEETUP Saturday, 28 August 7 p.m. -ish Limbo Avenue A (between 3rd and 4th Streets) New Yawk Citee +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: counting books...
by E. A. Hostetter 28 Aug '99

28 Aug '99

Hello friends...and esp. Mr. Thorniley's ego *wink* BOOKS I said it, I did it...I am counting my books. I used to have over 300 but now, because of many moves over the past 4 years, I am down to about 100. I lost one of my favourites, called "Panick Love" by Antonio d'Alfonso. It was a gift from my mother and it's about friends and lovers creeping around Paris, Milan, and Montreal...fantasy I should think! Still have most of my university books: Phonological theory of polyglot children with hare lips...very useful. CDs Another loss to mourn: HMV.com did not have the Scott Walker CD I ordered and they sent me a happy little message telling me that I have to look elsewhere. I tried to get the new Freedy Johnston but it was on order at the (actual) store. Maybe I'll just have to let Enrique Iglesias keep me company... JOB I have all weekend to fret about a possible new job. Unfortunately, it's way out in the suburbs. I'll be writing for the company's web site; target market: 9-14 year old boys. I'll expense all sorts of toys and comic books..."research, I swear!" My current job has given me lots of relevant experience...but I can't wait to quit. I feel like I'm married and dying to break free....8 hours a day in the same room with an immature 32 year old man...help! Men with model fixations are big ZEROs in my opinion. POETRY I have no poetry to share although I do recommend Gwendolyn McEwen. She died very young and wrote the most beautiful stuff I have ever read. Cheers...love you all...my squishy-face photo will be up soon :) E +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: mourning 'proper' doritos
by David Geraghty 28 Aug '99

28 Aug '99

of course, i think i was the only person ever to like them amongst my friends anyhow. pointless post ahoy!! (early warning) much like selle and bebastian. i got a letter from a friend in new zealand today. she informed me she had discovered them. i didn't realise they were lost, but obviously i am very happy they have been found....she is coming home soon, and hopefully will have them in her hand luggage. finished my quite evil job making concrete floor today, which was a mighty relief, although i did get to drive a van across the midlands, which allowed me to play the mentle swathes at a tremendously loud volume (although it doesn't really work) and subsequently loose the tape between wolverhampton and home. it may still be in the van, but i don't intend to go back and check. they might make me do some more work, and i don't want to. us students eh? good for nothing. >I said it, I did it...I am counting my books. I used to have over 300 >but now, because of many moves over the past 4 years, I am down to about >100. this did make me smile though. do you pay for your houses with books? i wish i could do that, then i would have a rather nice penthouse appartment in soho. instead i have a shoebox. finally, perhaps something of interest. i want (hope/would like) to organise a bit of a meet up for the east midlands big up B&S massive sometime in the autumn (more of an excuse for drinking! might catch a chill outdoors..) so, if you are in the area, or at least, will be come late sept/oct then mail me off list. i don't bite, but i can flog you some concrete floor at a knockdown price. byebye david +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: i am the king of all i see, my kingdom for a voice
by fountainhead 27 Aug '99

27 Aug '99

if it is evening, good evening. if not, curse this infernal machine. do you ever get this feeling when you can't tell if you're feeling happy or sad? it's odd. i've just watched 'something about mary' and i'm not sure whether it's cheered me up or not. then i listened to 'we rule the school', and the effect was not totally dissimilar. i guess i'm just tired from wondering if i'll ever see my 'mary' again. bon nuit f. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: I PRESSED CAPS LOCK AND THEN THE KEY BROKE
by James Thorniley 27 Aug '99

27 Aug '99

Yo, Only kidding. GEORGE DICKIE's post gave me some fun. I happen to be quite convinced that Isobel is evil anyway. Oh, before I forget. I'd better excuse myself for greeting you with the word yo. IT'S A JOKE. I do it all the time in school, and I would normally do it here but I'm worried you'll get the wrong impression. Likewise, I would sign my name Big James, like people call me in school, except people might talk. I've got enough talk around about me after Toby told everyone that I used to be a nun. OOH, IM BIG I got a whopping TWO mentions of my last post, and both E and Robin Carmody actually spelt my name right, which doesn't happen that often. I love you both for that. In fact, E actually called me Mr. Thorniley, which made me feel reeeaally big. T-SHIRTS I sent off for a looper T-shirt the other day. I got up especially early yesterday and today to wait for it. I was disappointed yesterday, and today Postie was late. And though I got up and waited, a had to get bored eventually. I decided I had stinked the place out long enough, and should have a bath. Guess what, the post came while I was in the bath. How evil. You get them from www.treehouse.clara.net, if you're interested. I was going to go out to town to show it off and see if anyone noticed it, but Toby rang me and we decided to go out on our bikes (there's some cool jumpy things near Toby's house). I was hideously scared of getting it dirty, but I think it's alright. I'll go into town tomorrow. CAN'T THINK OF A RELEVANT HEADING People keep talking about how they met other sinisterines, and I get sooo depressed. I don't think there's a Guildford sinister contingent, just me. I'm talking about Guildford in Surrey, in the posh centre of the south of England. EVERYBODY ADD ME TO YOUR ICQ LIST I've got no-one on it and there's never anyone on-line to talk to me. My number is: 42286739.

Sinister: Digby Park & Ride
by Mr Beaker 27 Aug '99

27 Aug '99

Well, I've been waiting in the preverbial wings for four and a half minutes now, and I'm carpin me pants. Be gentle with me, unless your called Miller, then you can be as rough as you like. I'm not one for introductions, but what the hell..I'm Beaker, not cos of my astonishing similarity to a Jim Henson character, but cos of my astounding inability to drink from a mug without causing third degree burns to my groinal regions. Oh and I hate cardigans, biscuits and Preston. That's the nice stuff over with. brainy Sarah wrote : >If Stevie Jackson was a chocolate bar, which one >would he be? He'd be the most SATISFYING (prrr) thats >for sure!!! The concept of satisfying yourself with a chocolate bar is certainly quite frightening. A twix has obvious benefits if you are that way inclined, but lacks on the girth side of things. I'd vote Stevie as a giant Toblerone man meself...ribbed for heightened pleasure. I've heard Peter Miller regularly satisfies himself with a finger of fudge in little boys room of some seedy Spanish bar. He always was easily pleased. Right, I'm off to stick a swiss roll up me arse. Love and kisses, Beaker xxx __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
