Sinister: i could be dreaming, but maybe it's just raining really really hard
by chris lampinen 29 Jul '00

silly! how could you have NOT read every single word on the sinister page? its on there. http://www.missprint.org/sinister/lyrics.html or if you're super lazy i'll put everything at the end of my little post. today we had a big huge horrible storm in michigan. i work outside. it was fun, except my shoes had holes on the bottoms and it was really cold. my feet looked like prunes when i got home. my co-worker is all of fourteen years old, and since i couldn't stand to see the poor thing walk (skateboard actually) home in the rain, i offered him a ride. i shamefully turned my sinister tape down 'cause he's "hard" and i would have felt stupid. imagine that. im intimidated by a 4' fourteen year old. mm. oh well. i hope all your storms are as lovely as mine, with love christiaan Spoken bit from "I Could Be Dreaming" From: "Rip Van Winkle" by Washington Irving: designated by a rubicund portrait of his majesty George the Third. Here they used to sit in the shade, of a long lazy summer's day, talk "Times grew worse and worse with Rip Van Winkle as years of matrimony rolled on; a tart tempter never mellows with age, and a sharp tongue is the only edge tool that grows keener by constant use. For a long while he used to console himself, when driven from home, by frequenting a kind of perpetual club of the sages, philosophers, and other idle personages of the village, that held its sessions on a bench before a small inn, listlessly over village gossip, or tell endless sleepy stories about nothing. But it would have been worth any statesman's money to have heard the profound discussions that sometimes took place, when by chance an old newspaper fell into their hands, from some passing traveller. How solemnly they would listen to the contents, as drawled out by Derrick Van Bummel, the schoolmaster, a dapper learned little man, who was not to be daunted by the most gigantic word in the dictionary..." >Alright, question being, what the hell is she reading? Is it something >really obvious that I should know, or is it entirely made up? THis is a >silly question, but it bothers me to no end. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Broken Bones Can Sting a Little
by mbethy 29 Jul '00

29 Jul '00

Is it possible to break one's elbow? If not, I think I'm a pretty good candidate for the inaugural case. Every time I move my elbow it makes a horrible cracking sound. I slipped on (of all things) a copy of this stupid publication my "employers" put out and hurt my elbow something awful. I was even sober; the irony was crippling (so was the pain). Perhaps I should stop complaining. Anyway, there is a purpose to this mail, and it is to inquire about "I Could be Dreaming." I remember wondering about this song months before I was even on this ridiculous list, but I just re-remembered my question. Around exam time i had this idea that the thing Isobel reads in the middle of the song was somehow going to show up on my lit. exam as the sight passage. Needless to say, it didn't (which is good cos in a pre-exam dream i dreamt it was the sight passage, and I promptly received a failing grade on my opus because I "missed the point", but enough about that). Alright, question being, what the hell is she reading? Is it something really obvious that I should know, or is it entirely made up? THis is a silly question, but it bothers me to no end. THanks for...well...nothing yet! marybeth P.S. does anyone have the album by THe Dears? I forget what it's called but I heard one of the songs and took a liking to it. I'm considering getting the album (providing i can find it) but i don't know if that one song is just a fluke. hmm....... _____________________________________________________________ Get email for your site ---> http://www.everyone.net +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: waiting for buffy...
by rachel tucker 28 Jul '00

28 Jul '00

howdy peeps it was my birthday on monday, i made it to 18! i'm a proper adult now, no really, i am... the fact that i'm skint, unemployed, bludging off my parents, smoking far too much shit and generally behaving like a student does not undermine my credibility as a responsible member of society. though i was under the impression that responsible members of society do more than turn up back home in the middle of the day hardly able to stand, forgetting both my keys and that my mum and dad both work, decide to break in to the garden and 'rest' on the patio, where i was woken up by my hysterical mum 5 hours later thinking i'd died or something, go back to bed and then have my alarm clock go off so i could get up for my 'this life' fix... alright, that wasn't a typical day, that was yesterday. today i, ermmm, got up at half three, made a tape, made some pasta, errmm that was it really. i can't be arsed to go out, and besides the 'ex-boyf, guy i cheated on ex-boyf with, and guy i actually have heart pumping crush on' situation is so tense, stressful and fucking complicated i only go to the pub now if i'm feeling particuarly masochistic. which today i'm not. i would go back to bed but buffy is on tonight and i missed it on wednesday. also, i'm waiting for the result of oxford's pre season friendly against chelsea. it's really dumb, i decided that there was no way i was paying out a tenner for another bloody friendly (the one against birmingham was SO godawful that i nearly phoned back the job i'd just turned down because i'd have to work 3 out of 4 saturdays and ask them to save me from soul crushing boredom that oxford united inflict upon their fans, and that i'd work every goddam saturday going...), and that i didn't care, it's completely meaningless, yet i've spent all of this evening desperately not listening to radio oxford's commentary. it's worse than actually being there...that may not be strictly true... anyway, only 5 minutes left now till i can switch the radio on, yay! mark said: Last week I went to a gig by Holy Roman Empire, who are my favourite Oxford band at the moment. and i say: fantastic!!! i cannot seriously believe that someone other than me likes, nay loves the mighty HRE. they are an...experience. to say the least. if anyone gets the chance to see them please GO! you may wish to never see them again, but there is always the chance you'll come away with a grin to split your face and be unable to stop smiling for the rest of the week. and anyone on the tape tree can blame mark for my inclusion of the empire's mighty piss take/major improvement on radiohead's street spirit. i wasn't going to put it on the tape i made today, but after finding out there is someone else on the list who might possibly appreciate it, i've gone ahead...sorry...it could be (worse? better?), i could have put the oxford united mix of 'holy water baby' on... oh. we lost 5-1. bugger. knew i should have taken that bloody job. i got the new jeff noon book for my birthday, 'needle in the groove'. it is brilliant, it really is. the way noon manipulates language, wow, unbelievable. he is also one of the few writers who i think can write about music, any music, without being cliched or cringeworthy. it's a headfuck of a book to be honest. once you're in there's no leaving it alone, it really gets under your skin. don't you just hate it when you can't write your posts all in one go? because i'm such a slow typist there is more of a chance that during the course of me trying to write something i'll get interrupted. and as per usual i just have been. the phone's going berserk!! (i've never written 'berserk' before, it looks dead weird. probably spelt wrong). that would be cool had i wanted to speak to any of the people on the other end, but as with most of my friends and family, i didn't. and now you all have to suffer a disjointed post. sorry. my dad (who's in berlin drinking. lots by the sounds of it) was the first wanting a full match report. he hung up when i told him i didn't actually go. bless him though, he paid half my reading ticket for me (though i did have to sign - with witnesses! - the i.o.u for the other half, damn) and it came this week. i am tres excited, primal scream, badly drawn boy, the delgados, eminem, gorky's, idlewild, super furry's, ooberman AND(subliminal message: go see, go see) theanimalhouse ALL ON THE SAME BILL!!! i can't believe it! and for nostalgia's sake i can see oasis for the very first time, which had this been six years ago i would be wetting myself over in sheer overexcitement, like the time i nearly walked into mark owen...no i was speaking figuratively, i didn't REALLY wet myself. honest. no really, i didn't. just hyperventilated and needed my inhaler. and that was due to lung abuse, not the fact that i had nearly walked into one of my ALL TIME HEROES/POP KID CRUSHES. honestly. please believe me... okay, on that note i think it may be time to wind this baby up. i started typing at 9:15 and now it's 10:42, i wasn't even on the phone THAT long... man, all that effort and sod all of any interest to show for it... and the whole three dots thing (which is called an ellipsis y'know) is pissing me off now, it just makes me look dumb like i don't know how to finish a sentence properly, or i've run out of things to say or something. well, anything coherent anyway. which could be true. so lots of love and hugs people rachel xxxx ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: I want back the time I gave you
by Harry Hunt 28 Jul '00

28 Jul '00

I've screwed the Student Loans Company over, and I'm fairly sure they're going to find me out any minute now, and then my life won't be worth LIVING. If I die, you can all come to my house and divvy my stuff up. All the nice ones of you, anyway. I'm allowed to mail again because my last mail was entirely factual and unopinionated. Oh yes. On the subject of the definition of the word "Fey", a potplant sent me the following: ############################################################ I'm still in the nursery, but I'd like to give another side to the "fey" word. Maybe you could pass it along...? I know that in the 1800s (and probably long before that), the Chinese used the words "fan wey" to describe the English. Yes, it was a derogatory term. The Chinese did not think highly of the "whites" back then. Maybe this has no relevance at all... My 2 cents, Colleen (new listee from Huntington Beach, Calif.) ########################################################### I was expecting to have something to say after all this to justify it, but my spirit is gone, and I don't mean vodka. I'm a mess. *shakes head* Wish me luck, folks.

Sinister: theres a fly in my soup.
by i'm done faking my rampages, thankyou very much 28 Jul '00

28 Jul '00

hiya everyone.. this message serves a couple functions really. the first reason is the worse one... i never got my last post, but i got a reply from someone else's mailbox saying that they were away.. so i dont know if i sent it to the list or just this person, as i dont have the outgoing message function saved. gotta hate hotmail sometimes. so if i rehash anything. i'm sorry. eer.. Its Jes (formerly fakinguparampage(a)aol.com) who said she unsubbed but didnt really as she forgot about this account, and is happy that she has this account as she has been tearing down her aol accounts, but can now post again using this account... if you're not sure who Jes (fakinguparampage(a)aol.com) is, think wanna be canadian who loves apple butter. thankyou. so, if my previous post was really posted.. then everyone hates my story idea. and thats sad, because i thought it would be cute. however, if my previous post wasnt posted at all, then perhaps i havent shared my idea yet and you dont all hate me. so this is my idea. i think we should write a sinister story -- it can pass along like the poetry parrot, each person writing a paragraph or 8 to continue it. i had an idea for a premise and characters and such, but that didnt really work well, as i decided afterwards 'no'. i'm not the funniest, wittiest most articulate chick on the list tho, so i would feel kinda awkward starting it. but... i dont know. it could be nice. rick doesnt seem to like us much... so i dont really understand why hes here. i played belle and sebby for a friend yesterday.. and she hated them. so i got really sad... she equated them to peter paul and mary, and went on how it was the worst music shes ever heard. another friend played them for another friend, who just said that they were too cute. i'm devestated. and the last purpose to this letter. the girl on the cover of tigermilk was stuarts girlfriend at the time, right? are they still together, do we know? cos... i was thinking.. the line in the model 'i'm not to proud to say that i'm ok with the girl next door whose famous for showing her chest'... could that be a cloaked reference to her, as her claim to fame would be that she was shown nursing the tiger, thus showing her chest? or should i stop thinking? sigh... i'm supposed to go out today, but i have no money... and my friend i was supposed to go out with hasnt called yet... so i dont know if i'm still going. sadness. love, Jes ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Definitions of Twee and Fey
by Harry Hunt 28 Jul '00

28 Jul '00

Fey is another spelling of Fay, which is an ebonic slang term for "white man". It's generally derogative, but in some contexts is merely familiar. Fey/Fay is also Scots slang, relating to one fated to die, doomed, especially as portended by peculiar, usually elated behaviour. It also can be traced back to a Gallic word meaning to clean out, or scour. Fey was also once Scots spelling for the word "fee" It can also mean eccentric, slightly mad, whimsical, supernatural fairy-like and elfin. It is generally these last few meanings for which the word is used nowadays. Twee is a colloquial adjective meaning small and sweet, sentimentally pretty. There are two theories for its etymology, whether 'tweet' being used as a term meaning 'extra sweet' got contracted, or whether it's more Gallic, and thus a combination of T-iny and WEE. Conjugations accepted by Chambers are the adverb "Tweely" and the noun "Tweeness" Twee is/was also a Scots interjectory term, used as a call to calves at feeding time. The OED says that twee means dainty, chic, over-nice, over-refined, precious, mawkish. The OED puts the etymology down to a juvenile pronunciation of the word "sweet". Hope this helped in some small way. I'm trying to distract myself with reference books because I have an interview in a minute.

Sinister: It's my party and I'll die if I want to
by Magda Boom 28 Jul '00

28 Jul '00

Dearest bedwetters, Im sorry theres been a short interval from planet MAGDA, (like you care, eh?) Ive been rather caught up in the social whirl. Cutting back a little while, the last London picnic, thankfully back on Primrose hill was a delight, and a big HELLO to the London picnic massive. Hello Mojo Sophie and everyone else I met. Its gossip you wanted, and gossip I would provide, had I not arrived appalling late and left before the drunk quarter (i.e Apres 8 PM) to meet something boyshaped. And that half-wit Carsmile says I wasnt there, well I was, I tell you, but I was hanging with the Baxendale crew on the Kids table for the most part. Im sorry I kicked your football down the wrong side of the hill on purpose and refused to collect it, boys, but sometimes a girl has to make a stand. I danced to Dylan in the Movies at Trash on Monday, theres content for you. It was actually the first time Id heard Belle and Sebastian in weeks, never mind danced to it, but there you are, all it takes is one moment of hip-shaking, brow-wiping, dirty-floored-disco moment and theyre back on rotation. Can I take this opportunity to big up the Foxgloves? They played a gig in Camden last week and they were so spanking good, I snubbed headlining whilster and ate chips outside instead. This is the summer of hate, I tell you, but its getting quite fun. Im off to swish around Prague tomorrow so I wont be around for a little while, I hope some of you send me some letters to read for when I get back. That would be swell. Agent Boom x P.s David - dont worry about my copy of Diary of a Crush, I bought another copy. You can keep up with a very real diary of a crush at http://welcome.to/houseofscarlet when she gets her act together P.P.s Ken, I havent forgotten about the Bowling League - it *will* happen! *********************************** chickclick.com http://www.chickclick.com girl sites that don't fake it. http://www.chickmail.com sign up for your free email. http://www.chickshops.com boutique shopping from chickclick.com *********************************** +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Faggy but nice
by Lucy Alder 28 Jul '00

28 Jul '00

**With reference to other listees...** I notice that Mark casually slipped into his post that he went to the gym last night. He's been going for a while and I thought it was all part of his masterplan to become a boring grown-up before his time. Now I know better, of course - he just wants to be Sinister's first and foremost Muscle Mary. My my, Rickbozard has a fiery temper, doesn't he, girls and boys? And I thought vegetarians were all wishy-washy, hippie types, keen to spread peace, love, daisies and tofu. Cheer up, you old bugger, you're not dead yet. Sinister Diva Llaura Llew, whose Ls I pronounce like those in Llanelli, I didn't get your email I'm afraid - send it again and add a postscript telling me your secret. Poetry indeed! Whatever next? Hello to everyone who came to the Magnetic Fields gig in London (and Sinister was very well represented indeed). Who was it who went to the one in Brum? I'm jealous - did they really do lots of new ones? We got 27 Love Songs plus an oldie. But it was still GRATE. **Content (wonders will never cease)** First up, did anyone else notice that Knightowl asked if anybody ever posts any content and then, just like that, up popped our very own boogie-woogie bugle boy from company B&S with a new diary entry? Anyway, I thought I'd continue the trend and copy out some things that were in August's Select that I'm pretty sure haven't been mentioned before and which may be of interest to those of you that are forrin and would have to fork out considerably more that two pounds and seventy-five pence for your own copy. >From an interview with Alan Rankine: Select: You oversaw the course at Glasgow's Stow College that led to the recording of Belle & Sebastian's Tigermilk album. How was that? Big Al: Yeah, I was there for most of the five days when it was being recorded and mixed in the studio. Stuart Murdoch just had so many amazing songs, the best lyrics I'd heard in a long time. Stuart is quite a guy. I remember the first time I saw him he was wearing a three-piece suit with his pyjamas underneath - tops and bottoms! - in the middle of Glasgow. Stuart Murdoch - style guru. What I want to know is, how could he tell Struan was wearing pyjama bottoms under his suit trousers? I have mental image of undone flies and a bit of blue and white striped brushed cotton poking through. Swoon! Mick Cooke on Napster (RIP): "I received an email from somebody who discovered Belle & Sebastian through Napster... he's since bought all the records" Come on, fess up, was he talking about you? And goshdarn, can't they find a picture of Mick that WASN'T taken at the Brits? What about the delightful one on the new album with the Farrah Fawcett wig? Cor! The Symbolism of B&S LP Sleeves: What's the girl on the front of Belle & Sebastian's FYHCYWLAP album holding? I Fought In A War by Glynn Hurst. You'll search the Penguin catalogue in vain for it, though - it was invented by B&S singer Stuart Murdoch and their manager Neil Robertson as a tribute to the Ayr United striker of the same name. Apparently, he's a very pacy player who joins the attack brilliantly, how will Glynn react to this JR Hartley-like fame? A Gazza and Lindisfarne-stye collaboration surely beckons. Ho and, indeed, ho. Did we already know this info? I think I knew the book didn't exist, but I didn't know who Glynn Hurst was. But then, I know nothing about football. That's why I support Woking. *Friday night's alright for dancing* Londoners, tonight is Track & Field night. I'll be there in a red pencil skirt and my second highest heels - who'll join me?
