Contrary to popular belief there do exist ppl who smoke and enjoy music that does not include Phish, the Black Crowes and the Grateful Dead. So, yes I'd have to posit that you are naive...or terribly sheltered. Then again I live in Canada where pot-smoking is not frowned upon and may be legal quite soon...meaning potentially more B&S fans pot smoking. I wonder how much better the picnics would be....

Sinister: under a canopy
by Matthew Stead 14 Aug '00

Hello Pretties, Just a wee note to emphasise my thanks for Belle and Sebastian on this cloudy gloomy day. 1) Just heard Loneliness... Wow what a wicked song. I reckon its one of the best yet. I loved it as much as the Long Distance Runner book by Silitoe. And that's saying summat. They're GRATE!! Big stylee! 2) Pauline L Shivers story was brill. Oh how I laughed and laughed! I want to know more. pleeeeeease post to finish the story, I can't bear the suspence. Can I be your butler pleeeeeeease?! 3) Mucho Thanks to whoever recommended Catcher In the Rye. I stayed up till 4:30 last night to finish it off. Weird ending but it kinda made me feel all special and not 'phony'! It was a welcome distraction to finishing off my dissertation. I'm soooo bored of writing about ducks...yes I said ducks! Don't ask! 4) Good luck to all the A'level lot. I hope you get brill grades and that you get to go on to do something special. Don't do a boring Geography degree like me. Do something special like art or music. I wish I had. Hey, go Study at Stow. 5) I want to move to America. Don't know why. I wanna live in NY for a while. I think I'm attracted to the cahnge, and being someone ickle and anonymous in a big city. Ahhh one day. If only I had a Visa and not six grand debt. Anyways, that's the lot. T'was my secong post but I wont bore you with all that...except to say I'm called luvlymaffoo and I live in the Bristol. There we go. See ya peeps. luvlymaffoo.xxx "She was into S&M and bible studies.

I was recently startled when my father (whom I admire and respect very much) and I were in the car listening to "Don't Leave the Light On, Baby." He said to me "This is so stony." I hoped he didn't mean what I thought he meant, but he did. I'd never associated B&S with weed usage. My Dad claims that he likes B&S very much and that being stony was not necessarily a bad thing. Has anyone else thought this? Has anyone ever gotten stoned to B&S? Am I just Naive? Next: Bob Dylan Last night I watched the biography of Bob Dylan. Needless to say I have much more respect for the man than I did before. I never realized how truly revolutionary he was. Jimi Hendrix is going to be on Wednesday night, I'll have to watch that one as well.

Sinister: Gee, Baby, Ain't It Good For You?
by Pauline L. Shivers 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Oh, hello sinister What a disaster!! The whole weekend has been nothing else but a sheer-turtle-disaster! I told you we were going to have a family reunion at the family's cottage. Well, we did! And it all went worse than I could possibly imagine... First of all, Big Aunt Myrtles invited to our family reunion that disgusting macaroni dandy, the one she wants to marry me off to! Yes! His name is Giovanni Gregorio d'Arnazzio... Yes! And she invited him to the family reunion! She thought it would be a good chance for me to meet him! So, he arrived there on Saturday! What can I say about him? he is very good-looking, the way italians are, tall, thin, dark hair, with a nice tan. he's 30 years old and God is he rich! My dad loved him at once! But the poor fool, he'd do anything to please Aunt Myrtles! You should have seen him; the whole weekend he was just strolling about auntie, trying to make himself agreable to her anyway he could! Oh how much I despise him for that! Me and Theodor (my cousin), were away when my "fiance" arrived! We love to walk up the hill that is near the cottage! There's a little river there and we love to go swimming! So, we were racing each other down the hill when we saw this fancy car entering our garden. And then this really handsome bloke getting out of the car... I heard Theodor sighing! I think I can tell you that now; I strongly believe that Theodor is gay, but a "in-the-closet" one! He never talked to me about it, but I'm sure he's about to... poor Theodor!! And he has to marry this blonde, washed off cow! And he really did sigh when he saw Giovanni! This slimy excuse for a man! I do hope Giovanni is gay so we can keep him in the family, and aunt turtle will be happy, and Theodor will be happy, and most of all, I will be happy... And besides, I heard from my good friend Althea, whose father owns the cottage next to ours, that he's an awful lover! and not really "gifted" if you know what I mean!! So, family dinner... we all sat at this huge table, aunt Myrtles on the head of it and my dad on the other edge. I sat next to Theodor and Giovanni opposite to me! He was looking at me all the time with his wet eyes, that look like 2 olives thrown in olive oil! And then that waiter started to serve us! I'd never seen him before, he was one of the extras aunt Myrtle hires sometimes for special occasions. Oh was he cute! I couldn't take my eyes of him! And he wasn't indifferent to me, mind you! Who would anyway? Then I asked for permission to be excused, and as I was getting up from my chair holding a glass full of water, I accidentally bumbed onto the poor waiter! As a result all the water fell on my white silk shirt! Now you can imagine what happened! The waiter couldn't take his eyes off my erm... wet shirt; aunt Myrtles started to get red and stretched her neck in the most disgusting manner I had ever seen! What is this thing with me and commoners? I think Theodor has it too, as I suspect that he's secretly having this crush over auntie's gardener Arthur! He walks around him everytime he's hoeing auntie's famous rosetrees! But I shall stop now and come back with more adventures from that disastrous weekend some other time... Because I'm sure you'll all want to know how Giovanni sneaked into my room and Theodor got caught with Arthur in the stables! yes!! oh another thing! Honey, that luxurious little girl that happens to be a princess too, so I'm allowed to talk with her and be friends with her, said that there's a sinister anniversary! 3 years of sinister! and she suggested that on that day we should all wear underwear that would have the same colour! I really liked this idea! it could only come from a nobel mind! What I suggest is that we all wear undies in red! And I wonder, miss Honey, am I allowed to wear stockings too or is it against the rules? Pauline L. Shivers that makes sinister all quivers She's that aristocratic slag Who lives and reigns in Prague PS: Lucy made some anagrams with my name! > It occurred to me that Pauline L Shivers is one of > those names you could get a lot of anagrams out of. > Here are a few: > Nashville Super I > A Level Irish puns > Punish Vera Ellis > I slurp Helen Avis > Hi puss, learn evil I liked them all!! But I really loved the "I slurp Helen Avis" and "Hi puss, learn evil" ones!! God!! I can use them as my sign off!!! Or as a code with my commoner lovers!!

Sinister: onegin is my brother....
by kmhyde＠wm.edu 14 Aug '00

Hello to all and sundry. This is my first post, so I'll try to do those things which are accepted as conventions by the sinus populi. My name is Kevin, I'm 20 years old, I attend College at William and Mary in VA, and I play guitar and write shtories. umm. besides that I work in a mind decaying job as a data enterer. It's not quite as decadent as I had expected- I always thought there would be more than a handful of scantily clad nubiles, you know- the kinds of things you see in the classic films of data entry: "Nude Keyboard", and "Database Meltdown". oh well, such is my lot in life. Anyways...anyone interested in Virginial B&S get- togethers should feel free to missive me. And I like vinyl, so....well. yes. rightio. I hope to interact with you all; some in a business manner, others in the "i know you, but don't really KNOW you" manner, and the rest? well, you can all be my lovers of course. (i'm clean!) for b&s content- I had a dream (on the list, this phrase is analogous to the invocation of the Muses in epic poetry) wherein I was sleeping under blankets made entirely out of the covers of the EP'S. disturbing, to say the very least. Usually I only have the banal- talking bananas and/or treasure chests. huh. nice. wishing you all warm afternoons.

hello all! hope u all had a good weekend, mine sucked. a friend dragged me to burlington this morning, and i did not have fun. we talked till 4 last night and discovered we were surprisingly similar on a lot of things. i thought maybe i finally found one person i could really talk to in this school. i was content. she said she wanted to go to burlington cuz she needed new bras, i said i didn't want to go cuz i didn't need anything; she convinced me it'd be fun. so we slept for 6 hrs(and it was not a good sleep) and headed south. we went with another friend who needed a hot pot. we got to downtown and browsed thru the shops and the main mall. all the way they were so excited talking and window shopping, i was not doing any of those bcuz i didn't understand what they were so excited about and again, i didn't need anything. so i got very bored, and tired after a few hrs of walking back and forth without a goal. i kept asking myself what the hell am i doing here, and i started to feel disgusted by them. this was the second time for me to have unpleasant experience with burlington, i should probably avoid going from now on. liqin midd, vermont, us +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
