I'm not sure why I'm telling you this... But my mother died last year, she had a quick and terminal cancer... And she's not the only one in my family. I'm sure I'm not the only one in this list who have a friend or a family member who died this way. So I can't help to think if there's a possibility to find a cure by cloning... Nobody is telling us that it will be easy, and I'm not sure of the ethics of cloning (neither of the use that science will make of this knowledges), but it's a point of light, don't you agree?

Re: Sinister: among the rubble I notice a comment on nader.......

Apparently I missed the beginnings of a good round of spats over our near and dear Ralph Nader. I don't know exactly whats been said, but from reading Knightowl's last post it appears someone took Ralph to task for being, among other things, a really unsightful adjective. Too bad. Personally, if you're young and not a member of the rich or ruling elite, I don't see how Nader's message can't resonate but maybe thats just me. Apparently, the reduction of government to basic logical principles (and the desire to make corporations responsible for their actions) seems to be so revolutionary and unheard of to other politicians and the masses, that he's already being treated as the election's requisite "loose cannon", and as Steven Kado pointed out, he and Pat Buchanan will most likely not be allowed to participate in the debates this fall (sponsored by Annheiseur-Busch, in all seriousness). I think even the staunchest of Green Party supporters will admit that Nader has virtually no shot of winning this election, but their goal is not the White House but rather to bring various issues into the public arena and to make people cognizant of whats REALLY going on in DC. How wrong is that? Just ask the GOP and DNC, both of whom are shitting three bricks a peice to keep him in the dark. If anyone feels so inclined, Nader's website is http://www.votenader.com....go see what all the fuss is about. Has anyone ever noticed that TBWTAS (the song) sounds like a pussy-fied cover of the Doors "Roadhouse"? It even has the exact same organ lick pulsing through the entire song. Its not in the same key or anything, but its still uncanny. My band Callow will be on a compilation thats been put together by Sinister's own Steve Genge and Amanda Bergman-Genge. The Lucksmiths and Clock Strikes Thirteen are also on there, so I hope you'll check it out sometime this winter. Well, I hope everyone's summer is still going well...men's basketball season is right around the corner, and Mrs. Llew can look forward to 6 whole months of beat-downs. Word up...

Sinister: Say baby I love you

Dear List, Jen mentioned having a Polly Pocket version of herself. Ive got a rather rough all cindy doll with its hair chopped off sitting in my room which is my doll me, and my friend, another Jenny, has a brandless cheapo doll version of herself, and a little while ago we took out dolls out with us to the Notting Hill Arts centre and watched them spin round on the dj decks like a couple of retards while Amelia Marine Research giggled at us. Later on, when Baxendale played, Tim grabbed our doll selves and sang to them. And Baxendale tell us its the summer of Hate, but this is a good summer. Weepy train journeys, the most battered copy of the Capote reader ever becoming my security blanket. I went to Prague, I went to Paris, and Im fading fast, but Im so happy, list, as I just wanted to tell you so. Maybe thats why I skipped around Virgin Megastore yesterday and brandished kisses on shy sinister boys I used to squabble with (Hello James, hello Daffy). Sometimes I start to wonder ! how different things could have been if some of you hadnt of come in and out of my lives. Then I tend to pinch myself in the arm and tell myself to stop being such a sap. amy said: >that craig david guy is really beginning to annoy me. all of his songs are about his >sexual conquests! Well, I cant say I dont like the boy myself, but last night as we waited for the tube me and hannahdoll re-wrote some of the lyrics to his last hit, as it goes. Met a girl on Monday, took her for a drink on Tuesday, I prematurely came on Wednesday, and by Thursday shed told all of-my-mates. Next time you see Craig David on the telly, look at his hands. Theyre not the same colour as his face, I tell you. I reckon he drew on that beard with a biro too. I dont understand people who admire girls just because they like Belle and Sebastian, even if they are horrible snobs. There has to be more to talk about than your favourite b-side. I dont know, I think the real snobs are the boys that think girls who like Belle and Sebastian are somehow better than those that have never heard of them. Sadly Ill be missing what I think might be the picnic of the year next week as I plan to be wearing a little black dress and Chanel wellies, lying face down in a pool of vomit at Reading festival. Have fun, kids, and remember, if youre wearing a mini-skirt and you slip off a shiny wooden chair in the pub, people might see your Polka dot knickers like they did mine in Camden last night. I dont think the Time Out crew were at all impressed.

Sinister: You can't yet buy one at the mall

Before these threads unravel into nothingness, a word on the Rod Stewart / Magnetic Fields debates. All problems would be solved if Rod recorded a cover of lumberjack disco karaoke favourite 'Sweet Lovin' Man'. Miller, Casarotto and everyone else on the opposing sides could go home happy. Or could they? Perhaps not, for Rod has his own way with covers - just think of his takes on 'Street Fighting Man' and 'Dirty Old Town'. He would probably start the song with the chorus, then sing the second verse; then another chorus, then a bridge that he'd penned himself: Yes, I *need* A sweet lovin' *man* Mama, let me tell you Aout the love of that sweet man That sweet lovin' man etc. Additional research by Idam Tal ________________________________________________________________________ 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: target: USA

YEAAHHH! (pumping my fist in the air as if in triumph) woo! jillian locke posted! she never did that before! woo! yesh! and then: symbolic logic on the list again! not since last fall has it reared its mathy head! i missed it so for that entire semster that i didn't take it. but i'm taking wittgenstein this semester so i'm sure i'll see more logic soon. and even more: its cold outside finally! its nice! you can wear sweaters (or cardigans if you're all into living by 'the book')! ambling no longer triggers sweat! but wait there's more: i may get a job at an art bookstore! selling art books! they made me do a quiz, and it asked me questions like who was freida khalo etc. i said that frieda khalo was the art lady with the moustache. that got a good laugh out of my interviewer. they also asked me 'who is mies van der rohe?'...i mean WHO ISN'T MIES VAN DER ROHE!?! that's my question. i know i am. and you too. they were playing nick drake in the book store when they interviewed me too. and there's a big ol' frank stella mural on the back wall. that's two exams in under 24 hours. i just wrote my contemporary architecture exam last night, and then i got drunk read more proust and then went dancing... and the Dead Kennedys came up too....they have been in my thoughts quite alot. i've been missing my friend ben, who is currently traipsing about europe behaving badly with architects and heiresses, but we used to talk about the DK quite alot. and then i read this headline that said 'dead kennedy in the limelight at convention' which was merely about there being a big JFK theme at the Democratic convention and not about Jello's latest bid at the presidency...which was disappointing to say the least. FRANKLY after just having been on about the dead kennedys its no surprise that i'm not a big fan of capital...but personally i don't think the US is on the verge of chaos when (and if) either bush or gore get elected. bush will be worse but not actually that offensively bad, it just depends on what your expectations of government are (it so happens mine are much lower than most). of course the rich will get richer, etc. but thats the way the whole thing _works_. until we blow up the whole thing in a flaming electric jihad revolution we can't blame the fucking thing for doing what it does. like hag eels. they excrete two buckets of mucous a day, thats gross. i'm not at all into buckets of mucous, but thats what a hag eel does when its not living in another animal's rectum...like the hag eel's mucous, america and its current economic/cultural system produces a growing disparity between the rich and the poor, cultural imperialism and invasive foreign policy...and the magnetic fields...so the us is actually better than hag eels. i guess the magnetic fields are 'the good mucous' in this analogy... um yes... so that's the end of politics ok? no more of that. someone just pied the primeminister of canada, he rides a kick board and wears silly hats...here in canada we govern by promotional stunts exclusively. riding the kick board was a vital and important political move that put him a step ahead of both joe clark (well, you don't need help to get ahead of joe clark) and stockwell day. frankly, i don't see how stock could ever get elected...with his eugenically frightening image and talk of a 'freedom train'. what the fuck is a freedom train? freedom from what? from the tyranny of jean 'teflon' cretien? from the most wishy washy non-commital government ever? really...i'm sure if he ever won a majority people like me and most of my friends would be put on different kinds of trains.... my parents watch any long running boring event possible on television. they watched princess di's coffin sit on a runway at heathrow for several hours...so they watched the democratic convention...and when i asked my mother why she did such things she said: they mentioned the kennedys...it was emotional. somehow i think i have different kinds of feelings.... hey is teri still on the list? whats up with her? and i saw the sisters thornton as well...and emily is still on the list...but quiet...hmm. now that jill is posting i have merely to entice leslie, ben, and everyone else into the city into clamourous toronto posting action. i'm not sure why that should happen...but if it did it'd warm my heart. sorry, s t e v en +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: I want my sun-drenched wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss...
by James Thorniley 19 Aug '00

19 Aug '00

Hello Sinister folks, Apologies in advance... I went to see Hefner at the Virgin Megastore just yesterday. They rocked, and Erica kissed me on the cheek, so I'm still blushing; and I met up with big Dave, who, once again, told me off for not posting enough, so here goes... I met someone who likes B&S! And not off the list - she is a colleague from my new work (I have this grate holiday job explaining science to little kids in this little science museum type place, which is quite twee in itself really). She's really nice but I'm not sure if I will see her again until christmas or something since she's only working at holidays because she's at university during term time :/ Mmm, this post is crap compared to my last one. No poetry this time. I was thinking about writing one about Lauren Laverne, who is my latest TV crush (I do still love you, Hannah S Club, but you're just going to have to deal with my new love), but I seem to have writer's block or something. Hmm, she has a curiously similar name to the subject of my last poem. Do you think that maybe Laura Llew will not send us a photo of her because she is hiding her secret that she is, in fact, Lauren Laverne? Prolly not - that's like my theory that Mick Cooke is Geri Haliwell. Mmm, well it's not really characteristic of me to go on and on like this in reality.. so I will stop now and just finish with a story that a friend forwarded to me (before anyone goes crazy, I personally don't view it as anti-american, just anti-capitalist or something like that - I don't think there's an anti-american trend on the list. I believe this story was written by an American too.) Feel free to press delete now: An American businessman was at the pier of a small coastal Mexican village when a small boat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the small boat were several large yellowfin tuna. The American complimented the Mexican on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took to catch them. The Mexican replied, only a little while. The American then asked why didn't he stay out longer and catch more fish? The Mexican said he had enough to support his family's immediate needs. The American then asked, but what do you do with the rest of your time? The Mexican fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, take siesta with my wife, Maria, stroll into the village each evening where I sip wine and play guitar with my amigos, I have a full and busy life, senor." The American scoffed, "I am a Harvard MBA and could help you. You should spend more time fishing and with the proceeds, buy a bigger boat with the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several boats, eventually you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your catch to a middleman you would sell directly to the processor, eventually opening your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and distribution. You would need to leave this small coastal fishing village and move to Mexico City, then LA and eventually NY where you will run your expanding enterprise." The Mexican fisherman asked, "But senor, how long will this all take?" To which the American replied, "15-20 years." The Mexican fisherman asked, "But what then, senor?" The American laughed and said that's the best part. When the time is right you would announce an IPO and sell your company stock to the public and become very rich, you would make millions. "Millions, senor? Then what?" replied the Mexican fisherman. The American said, "Then you would retire. Move to a small coastal fishing village where you would sleep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in the evenings where you could sip wine and play your guitar with your amigos." -- I think I've gone on for quite a while now, I'd better stop Seeya James +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Ifwhiteamericatoldthetruthforonedayit'sworldwouldfallapart
by Iain Radcliffe 19 Aug '00

19 Aug '00

Hello peepz, I'm, like, gonnae be totalement incoherent today (Saturday) B cos I'm feeling all those lost hours seeping through my pores... I was struck by a notion this morning as I returned to my "gaff", (actually a country manor don't you know*)that I should give ole FISHYCLAP a try again. So I pressed the spine of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe in the Children's Classic Fiction section of my private library, and lo, I wiz transported back to the 1940s, replete with grey short trousers and my mate William (or Just William as he insists on being called, the bounder) holding my hand in a gay manner (before the invention of homosexuality you understand). So we gaily made our gay way through the cheerful secret cloisters of the hidden music library, stopping at the Particularly Eccentric Kate Bush section to mosh along to Violin, Violiiin, Violiieeen, Violeeeeeeen! >From here on, the gaps between the shelves grew narrower and dark shadows and whispering tomes gave the broken-mirrored alternative spider's web scenario shifted through several degrees, an eerie, if huron or perchance superior clammy sense of foreboding and (yes, you guessed it) DOOM. It was at the Long Anticipated but Disappointing Albums section that I alighted to tease FISHYCLAP from it's hedgehog-skinned sheath. I slipped the fucker into one of the 20 CD players we have scattered willy-nilly aroond the secret library and then proceeded to roger William to the musical strains. (This was, of course pre-buggery/post sodomy, when many people were confused about their sexual orientation following rationing, and often had to made do with a sly whiff of Amyl Nitrate in the outside toilet before singing Clash songs loudly or indeed softly). Roger and William concurred: It's definitely the worst album by The Best Band Since The Smiths, mais le singe es dans l'arbre et il mange une banane. I had to disagree. After initially slating the bastard, I hummed along to IFIAW and TM, which were v.good, and could easily have made filler tracks on TWATTYBUS. The rest wiz pish man! Some ok, but just sooooooo not Stu M. He never wrote a teeth clenching lyric before this outing, and Family Tree and even Woman's Realm and That Dull One About A Frank Excess of Love, are a bloody disgrace to the B&S canon. Ha! Well, enough ranting. It's back to the ole classics for me - T and IYFS, along with a sprinkling of Elastica and JJ72 this avo. I hope you're all well, and keeping l'esprit de le passion musicale alive and well. "We live in a land of rains, where Royalty comes in gangs; shat on by Tories, shovelled up by Labour." "Come chaps. The sky is beginning to bruise, night will fall, and we shall be forced to camp!" Jarvis xxx *Hey, av ne'r done ane o' these footnot' things b'for, and it's acshully quite a thrill. What the footnote oracle says is: "To be stated in a posh Edinburgh lawyer's accent, ken - Crawwwford, Sinnclair, Niallll, Dahhling)" P.S. Blood on the Tracks is AMAZING kaytee! P.P.S. A tribute to Ken and his hot wok: Vodkas and Red Bulls! P.P.P.S. I'm soo sorry for this bullshit, but I've had an "Allnighter", as Justine Freshman would say, if she had the chance... P.P.P.P.S. Oooh that's a lot of "P"s! (Quoth Matthew Kelly). "You don't see Gielgud down the labour exchange. Why doesn't he retire, the bastard? P.P.P.P.P.S. As you may have gathered, Withnail and I is my fave film, and contains the most eloquent, sad and bitterly funny dialogue of any film ever.

Sinister: some product
by Mouche75＠aol.com 19 Aug '00

19 Aug '00

hi a brief note with some tenuous news. i was stocking up on Wrigley's Extra in WH Smiths yesterday and came across the new edition of a "Scottish bi-monthly culture" magazine called Product (at least I think that's what it was called). There's a pretty big B&S article in it, that doesn't say an awful lot, but is generally pretty warm. Thing is, B&S are on the cover. Sort of. The slip case to the Lazy Line Painter Jane single re-issues. In glorious 10x8. It's very bright and shines out from the news rack. It looks smashing. Did anyone know about B&S having a film on at the Edinburgh Film Festival though? This was news to me... or did I just miss something on Sinister? Apparently it was shown on August 17th, and consisted of promos and a short film called Up Our Own Arses. There were some stills in the mag. Sheesh. Oh, yeh, the article made reference to the fact that 'B&S' sounds like a posh old department store, which I liked. Anyways, if everyone knows this, I apologise. Only I didn't.

Sinister: Meanwhile, back here in Britain, this is what's on the horizon.
by gogron 19 Aug '00

19 Aug '00

Hello As usual I am in a rush but in danger of relaxing too much: I have a flight to catch. Welcome to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Court-NAY. Anyone going to the picnic in Greenwich? I shall be wearing my favourite 'out of town in town' moleskin trousers, old-man shoes and a tattered jacket. And red underwear, of course, in tribute to honey's third birthday party, even if honey might not be around in person.... aw. Maybe can be persuaded or maybe I'm not up to date. I suggest anyone wishing to test their theories of genetic cloning should check into #philosophy for a bit to do it live: quite good fun once you get past the interminable references to books one has perhaps never read, or even heard of. Hehe, I can't resist: my stick is thrown in the direction of progress aligning with optimism and hope: there's too much misery in the world to be conservative, and I refer not to existential *ennui* but to simple lack of health, food and water for our nice fellow human beings. Life is a flexible concept, after all, and I would prefer to see happy grown-ups with a future than DNA any time. For anyone who doesn't know already, the highly respected Scots man of letters and images, Mister Alasdair Gray, Sir, is going to do the illustrations for a book of Belle and Sebastian song lyrics. After spending the best part of fifteen years compiling his momentous historic tome *The Book of Prefaces* the great man is currently up some step ladders in a wee road just close to Glasgow University repainting a mural he did ages ago, up the stairs of *The Ubiquitous Chip* (a recommended restaurant, complete with indoor wintergarden) 'indoor wintergarden' is tautologous, by the way... Now I have to put this junky pile of clothes into a bag in about, say, five minutes See yas all later in one way or another, Gordon (Rousseau) P.S. I've been experimenting with side-on smiley faces: :) simple loveable #:D muzzy fringe bloke @;{} PUNKA girlie etc..... (:x kissing person P.P.S. Wish me some of your speed, certain person #:D an' I'll be right with you +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

paul rudolph was saying: "One of the things I hate about this list is this 'I hate America' thread that seems to pop up every once in a while" You are right, we have alot more opportunity living in America than some other places seem to have. However, just because we have it better doesnt mean we should feel obligated to stop there. We are told we have the best , and we should not stop until that is a fact. And for goodness sake , there are more than enough poverty stricken people living here in America with no money and no friends. ...and possibly no trousers..
