Sinister: the land of nod.....and kisses
by caleb ben moore 29 Oct '01

29 Oct '01

hey-lo sinister friends...... i hope all had a very good weekend, as i did. "and what did you do young man?", you may ask? well......... i'll tell you..... i went and saw WAKING LIFE. i'm telling you folks, you MUST SEE THIS FILM. i'm begging you to. its so......alive. so subtle, so intelligent, so visually stunning. plus you get to see the new "uncensored" bjork video......and yes, i DID cover my eyes. i'm a one woman man, and only one woman has my eyes.....my minds eyes that is........speaking of that one woman........i now know that dream connections are real. "what is he babbling about?" you may ask.....we'll i'm babbling about separated love, dream communication, some kind of weird voyeurism via small animals.....it's all so wonderful, my heart is singing......i'm bubbling and babbling like a stream running through the forest whispering it's love to all the trees and the deer and the fish as it goes by...."you won't believe it, but i'm in love with ......" and everyone smiles and gets that look on their face, because they know, they know what love is, and how it feels. how every little sip of coffee tastes divine, and how every breath feels like the very first. of course this is all very sudden, i admit, but it's just such a marvelous feeling to revel in, i really think it's going to be THE fashionable thing to do this autumn. you'd be smart to jump on the wagon folks, cause the love train's about to leave the station.... :) love and london suede b-sides collections, caleb ben aka raw ===== And when I'm lying in my bed I think about life and I think about death and neither one particularly appeals to me and if the day came when I felt a natural emotion I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie in the middle of the street and die I'd lie down and die ------morrissey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: stranger things have happened!
by Hannah Brown 29 Oct '01

29 Oct '01

hello there people, you probably don't remember me, i'm turning into a bit of a lurker these days. as someone else said, i just can't keep up with it all! I went to crazy-mad camden on sunday and bought meself a lovely, snuggly grey duffle coat in the true paddington bear style. It's brilliant and the pockets fit my hands in perfectly with just enough room left for some sweets (or marmalade sandwiches). Now i cannot wait for the cold weather so i can test its warm factor, i reckon it will be about 8/10. i also got some big hoop style earings which, admittedly, look stupid and hurt but they're quite good fun. On friday me and some friends stayed up late and played cards, we put on "feeling sinister" and my friend told me that that album will always remind him of me. I thought that was a really grate thing to say and it made me smile for ages. I have also got a PT job, which doesn't sound very interesting and it isn't but it means i get called a "reprographics assistant" which sounds quite good, better that "factory worker" any day. i'm sorry, none of this has any purpose or meaning, it's just like i am writing a diary, maybe that's why i'm not posting as much as before. One thing i would like to say is what a horrible thing happened to Rachel, i think i'd want to smash something if that happened to me. Happy Birthday by the way, you should do something evil like wee in his pint or something equally ridiculous. love hannahxx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: my flat has a spiral staircase
by fiona 29 Oct '01

29 Oct '01

no really it does. but the steps are slightly too far apart and made my legs ache all the time when we first moved in, but on the bright side i think i'm now developing really strong calf muscles. i'm having my first day back at uni after being ill and in hospital and everything for two weeks (i wasn't in hospital all that time, but the nurse kept coming to visit me and told me i wasn't allowed out of the house *pouts) and i've got a barrage of emails asking me if i'm still on the course. tsk, so i'm making them all feel guilty by sending back reeeally polite emails apologising and telling them just how sick i've been. hehehe. has anyone else noticed just how badly jarvis is receding these days. i had to switch off jules holland because i couldn't stand the sight of him pushing his fringe in the wrong direction and exposing how far back on his head it begins. i was really updet, i knew he was old, but its not until you see that extended forehead that you really think about it. *shudder ooh, i'm going to have to cut this short if i'm going to manage to get some lunch before the people who've actually been in lectures steal all the good sanwiches. (chicken &sweetcorn, yum) so i shall regail you with a proper post soon, love and lolly sticks, fiona. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: you could say he is barking up the wrong bush
by staralful - 29 Oct '01

29 Oct '01

Dear all Right 15 minutes start here: So how are you all today this fine bank holiday (here anyway). With the clocks changing etc I find myself going to bed early and waking up early which is very disconcerting. Right so I had a delightful 2 days ish in Dublin- Every time I go there I realise that I hate it even more. There are far too many people there and you could be in any city in Europe which is a bit annoying- I remember the days of potholes and poor people. There is none of that there anymore- just rich bourgeois happy enough to walk down the street with their bags from all the posh shops. The only thing that hasnt really changed is the itinerant kids singing their hearts out to oasis and a delightful addition to the buskers is the Hari Krishnas singing their eponymous song. The only refuge from this barrage of noise and unhappy rich people is the delights of an ould mans pub called Keoghs which while in the middle of the city has the impression of being in the middle of the country. It is spread over 3 floors which havent been decorated in years. The bar stools are still inhabited by the same ould fellas who have probably been there for the last 60 years. I almost felt bad about impeding in their place of drinking but we a)werent in the mood for a trendy bar on a Saturday afternoon and b) we really needed a pint to try and forget the horrors of Dublin. I was so glad to go on the DART back down to Bray where there is a mile long promenade with amusements on one side and the sea on the other which when done responsibly holds a rather good swim. I literally havent walked there ages and I was surprised to see the beach has grown up to the wall where before breakers would come over in stormy weather- We climbed Bray Head-A hill with a cross at the top with really nice views over the coast back up to Dublin- EEGADS how glad I was to be back in the car away from that place and get back to the city of cork where everybody knows my name and they are always glad I came. Right content time- Am I possibly the only person on earth who hasnt heard the new song yet (I have got marx and engels). Is it good ? Bad ? or just pure ugly? . Hmm can I join the under 20 brigade please? I will bring the beer. Ohhh and another thing- I know there was all this talk about Indie/alt soccer teams- How about sinister 11- any suggestions? Honey no doubt and Mr Chu Would feature in the main positions (maybe water girl and slop bucket boy) Anywho I go on and I am off celebrate my 19 year old friend getting engaged (it is so easy to sound pleased on phone when really you arent) at the lovely jazz festival Remember that baboons dont laugh at each others arses *****staralful****** "Are you calling Mr Simpson a liar?"-----" Not exactly -but we do have this fottage of him with his pants on fire" _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: i'm gonna kick yr willing arse!
by amy 29 Oct '01

29 Oct '01

ok, i'm all excited about the rachels vs. wills mix tape battle now. yes. it's on. the now swooning ken will be brought to his frolicking knees and dub us the holy queens of copyright law infraction! oh, hey kids, look what i'm a-gonna do ... www.nanowrimo.com you should too. yes. my mom is in the hospital. i'm only so calm about it 'cuz it happens so often. i either freak because it's happening yet-a-damn-gain, or i'm all calm and play mother for everybody. i'm calm and playing mother for everybody. so, i ended up at that halloween party last night, which was a white trash hell (no offense to those of the white trash persuasion out there, i'm one too!). my posse and i headed out for the bar instead. quite the scene... dean martin, a harley davidson riding bitch, an english professor, an old coked out whore (me), and an 80s mall hair wearin' preppy stuck up snob. great costume themes, no? can you say repressed? REPRESSED! i gave up on the strawberry shortcake costume. i think the wine made me feel the more ... ridiculous ... side of me, rather than the sweet and innocent fruity smelling one. even used a white eyeliner to draw in traces of cocaine around my nose. niiiice. i never thought i'd post here that often. it's fall and i've found my hibernating space, oh yes. mmm. yeah. i'd better head to bed. i hate cramps. take care all..... amy ===== "deeds cannot dream what dreams can do" - e.e. cummings __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: never before.
by Rob S. 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

greeting hepcats. i have played the part of a lurker for much too long, and i feel that it is time i reemerge from the depths of sinisterland. im finally at university, a place ive dreamt about for longandlong. and things are wonderfully fun. brutally fun. but at the same time life is more serious. i live with an boy who is always having sex, and murders my stereo by playing creed, dr.hook, and green day. theyve become my unholy trinity. also i see people falling into awful habits, and more and more i see another century of fakers. ive seen my friends back home once, and we are growing at such different levels that things are changing and it is getting more difficult to relate. i look at the sky and think of how everything in my lifetime is going to change beyond recognition. and am i scared. maybe or maybe not. but thank you belle and sebastian, because never before have i so-much been able to apply your music to my life...on these sweetandcold autumn days with the leaves turning and dying. all this morbidstrange beauty. while half the world is going crazy. and thank you fellow sinsterites for providing keen and witty insights into life. lurv you all, rob _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Bare's too much muff
by Kenneth P Y Chu 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

Hello, I met my dream girl last night. She was a very pretty girl, with the sweetest sweetest smile. Girls with a sweet smile always melt my heart. I met her in a café, in the afternoon, she caught my eyes on the opposite table. I think I caught hers too, I am a very good catch, but most girls don't know about that. She did one of those smiles. I think I put too much sugar into my coffee, it tasted strangely sweet. She asked if this chair on my table was taken, I said no, and she sat down. This has never happened to me before, and she introduced herself, as did I. She spoke, I never knew a girl so well spoken existed in my town; we talked, her intellect outshone even her sweet smile - I never knew a girl with such a great mind existed in my town. So, we spoke for hours on end and, in a hazy moment, I reached out and held her hand. I never knew before what it meant to hold a girls hand, but for a few seconds everything seemed clear, a few seconds later, an awkward feeling came, I withdrew my hand. I looked up at the girl, she smiled, and didn't seem to mind. She place her hands on my palm, and I knew exactly what to do this time. We just sat silent and gazed, a pair of green eyes have never been so fascinating, moments later, instincts told me that I should get up. The problem with dream girls is that they only seem to exist in dreams. Still 215 days til summer, sigh.

Sinister: Sinister Love
by erin 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

Rachel Cornflake's idea is quite lovely, I must agree. As a member of the under-20 Sinister set (and just barely a member of the 18+ Sinister set) I can heartily agree to anything that spreads Sinisterian love. It does seem as though B&S fans seek eachother out, but not in the way Radiohead fans do -- B&S are much more all-around loving about it and are less likely to evaluate your potential as a mate based on your opinion of the band's fourth album. (But then, B&S fans seem to love most everyone, wouldn't you agree?) I keep hearing about a new B&S single; Am I really that behind on these sorts of things? - erin, who also uses semicolons, parentheticals, and dashes with reckless abandon. Punctuation fears me. _____________________________________________________________ Are you lazy?

Sinister: libraries, swedes and punctuation
by Rachel Playforth 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

in a shocking development, i was offered not one but TWO jobs on friday. which was nice. i will now be returning to my spiritual home and working in a LIBRARY. yes, i will at last be joining will and andre in the whispering aisles of twee. who both mentioned semi-colons. a tutor once told me that i was the only student she knew who knew how to use one correctly. that went to my head a bit, probably. i don't know about it getting you guaranteed good marks on an essay, but it certainly dresses to impress. not only do i finally have a real job again, but in a few months i will be moving into a gorgeous flat with a gorgeous person. funny how life has a way of turning round. last week everything was dismal. (i really hope things take an upswing for you too, rachel oj. hugs.) the current tenants of my new lovely nest are swedish. they seem very nice. and made me think of the sinister swedish massive - i am convinced that astrid's powers of up-cheering are great, so hope that rachel oj does get together with her :) well, i missed out on my extra hour of sleep today as i forgot the clocks went back (despite reminding everyone i know yesterday). having used the extra time writing to sinister instead, i can now go to the shop which is what i tried to do an hour ago and looked pretty stupid when it was still closed and i didn't know why. luv archel xxx (no toast as have run out of bread) *************************************** archel(a)iname.com For the best in new writing on the web, visit www.buzzwords.org.uk Contact us on buzzwords(a)bigfoot.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
