Sinister: i wish it was the sixties, i wish we could be happy
by Kirsten Kenyon 10 May '01

10 May '01

spring is here, and everyone is a hippie. i feel it's time to leave, so it looks as though i'm going to meet up with my dear friend aimee in ireland as soon as school is finished. i have a new job at a bakery, and it's not so bad except that it's attached to a little fish market, which reeks, and it's in a stuffy village full of rude people. there is one other employee who likes belle and sebastian, and we keep trying to get our boss to play it in the store...it seems that with a 200-disc player there should be room for more than the five semi-quality albums currently in the loop, but alas, we can't get anyone in authority to replace peter frampton with tigermilk. oh well, i won't be working there much longer...i am happy that i will be getting out of the usa in a couple of weeks. my mom says she's worried i'll come back "more dissident than ever." she's probably right...have a wonderful day, everyone kirsten Care2 make the world greener! http://www.care2.com - Get your Free e-mail account that helps save Wildlife! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Is anyone definetly organising a meetup on the 16th (and 15th too, if ye like, son...)? there is a thread on jeepster for it, so whoever is interested can write 2 it. Probly Kelvingrove park again....

Sinister: Belle and Sebastian Competition (fwd)
by honey＠missprint.org 10 May '01

10 May '01

Hello :) See below for a chance to win tix to the Scotland gigz. There's an "absolute scoosh of a pish-easy question" to answer, apparently, which makes me think of something warm trickling down a trouser-leg. Anyway. Such language may be set up to favour the native population, but list members clearly have a headstart with the term "pish", even Thai ones. Nee, nee mun pish. Elephants blowing trumpets through their bums! Did I misread? Big "awwwwww yeah"'s to everyone I met at the London Pic, including those who I was told were who they were *after* we parted. I am a little shamed to have not said hello to a few. Hello! I can be shy too. Don't trust that temporary list mummy Linda, she's compiling dossiers on your all: I've seen them under the stairs, marked Top Secret, full of red ink. She told me she was going to change the B&S list to be a Black Sabbath list, honestly. She's taken to wearing false moustaches. Protect your rights. Anyway, I'm off for a scoosh, Honey xxx P.S. Eurovision Song Contest! Saturday! 8pm! Come to the #sinister chatroom in the national costume of the country of your choice and JOIN IN! Fringed boots are especially welcome. Royaume-Uni... nul points. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 10 May 2001 11:58:08 +0100 From: Stevie Whiteford <stevie.whiteford(a)bbc.co.uk> To: "'honey(a)missprint.org'" <honey(a)missprint.org> Subject: Belle and Sebastian Competition Hello, Just a wee note to let you and your web community know that the Session in Scotland website is currently running a Belle and Sebastian competition, with a veritable bucket full prizes- entailing a pair of tickets to every single Scottish gig on the forthcoming tour.

Sinister: Thunder & Lightning....not particularly frightning
by MIWinship＠aol.com 10 May '01

10 May '01

As I write, the most amazing thunderstorm I think I've ever known, is doing it's thing. Walking home in the rain, whilst proper forked lighting illuminated the sky from all sides and the surround-sound bettered any Dolby equipped cinema, it occured to me how easily we are pleased by loud noises and flashing lights....... Thus spake zarathustra: PICNIC So, some of us had to work this weekend, and didn't get to destroy their nervous systems with 72 hours of alcohol treatment. I have seen the results on several of you and don't envy the after-effects, even though I'd have happily joined in, if I could... Next stop Greenwich then, and I'd better be able to make it to my own 'hood'... SENOR DROOLCUP I've heard about you TAPE CHALLENGE I'm applying the final touches to my entry, so halt that judging Ms Llew. Suffice to say, it's a good-un and I have observed the rules properly. Perhaps I shall set my own challenge and thus aquire a large amount of new music for free... Actually, I might. There has to be a theme, though.... Well, the storm has passed and it doesn't look like there will be a rain of frogs (or plastic 'dinosaurs') so, that's that then. Mike. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: so that's what it means!
by Karren Gill 09 May '01

09 May '01

Well, much thanks to Charlie Farley and vodkabird, we now know that "Nee, nee mun pish, chan pai dee kwa" means something along the lines of "no, no man" (for the first part) then "this is shite, i think i'll leave"..i'll let Charlie handle the explaining part cos he does a good job: > > It's scottish english, written phonetically...not sure what it means in > its > > entirety, but the first bit is something along the lines of "no, no man, > > bollocks" or similar. > > > > "pish" is piss, used as an adjective in a similar way to "shite", or > > alternatively used to disagree with somebody - I think that's how it's > used here. now i can finally rest. karren +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: So that was the first big weekend of the summer...
by Hewitt, Stephen 09 May '01

09 May '01

Started as usual on friday with a few beers after work with the borders lot, some of the girls are off to glasgow, so we were saying goodbye to them. Ended up hammered in some dodgy basement club and getting the bus home. Didn't feel too bad on Saturday morning, got cleaned up and got the blue bus with Liz thinking that we'd come back from trafalgar square. Got to Camden by half 2 and met the gang at the Odeon. By the time we got to the top of the hill there was a fair crowd already, so i stood and talked bollocks with cabbage and robbo for a while. Everyone was drinking and laughing and having a great time. Didn't see much of the football, but we heard later that dark shirts had won 6-2. After we'd finished our beers we were all a bit cold, so we went down to the spread eagle and warmed up for the nite ahead. Most of us were quite pished by this point, so we decided to go down to Mark's indie disco. There was lots of dancing, lots of hugging etc etc. I was dancing with some blonde guy who I was later informed was, in fact, Greg Pallis. By the end of the nite i was knackered but still managed a final bop for boy with the arab strap. Got on the bus in trafalgar and some sporto boy had his legs in the aisle. Me and Liz pished ourselves laughing trying to get over him and then I collapsed in my seat and slept all the way back home. It's officially summer. xoxo CarsmileSteve (with the largest of apologies to aiden moffatt) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: a black fox fable (delete if you dont like twee stories)
by Jules Markham 08 May '01

08 May '01

Karma was sulking, and the Black Fox had no idea why. She had tried tickling him, but that barely raised a smile. She tried offering him a biscuit, but he munched it so sadly that it brought a tear to her eye. She even wrapped him up in his favourite tartan scarf, the fuzzy, itchy one that he thought made him look bohemian. But he just buried his nose in the fabric and sniffed to himself. She watched as he slid deeper into his spirit ditch. ~What's the matter? Karma looked up at her. -Nothing, he sighed heavily. ~What's the matter? Karma shook his head. -Nothing. The fox clenched her teeth. ~I'm going to keep asking until you tell me. Karma whimpered. -I don't like me, he said finally. The Black Fox was thrown by the bluntness of his statement. ~Why? -Well... I'm cynical, I'm suspicious, I'm forgetful... I'm clingy... I don't like me. ~You're not that cynical. So what if you forget things? Karma shrugged. ~Since when have you not liked you? -Always. It's just... worse than usual. The black fox straightened his scarf gently. ~Did I ever tell you about the reasonable fleas? Karma shook his head. ~There was this dog, and he had fleas. He was grouchy because of these fleas, which was a shame. There wasn't many of them, and they travelled over his body cleaning his fur of dirt and seeds and so on. They were reasonable fleas, you see. It was only fair. The Black Fox licked Karma's ear. ~But the dog didnt notice this, and decided to get rid of these fleas. He went to the park and jumped into the river, and the fleas were washed away. He climbed out of the water and ran around, finally free of his fleas. He rolled around in the grass and splashed in the mud and finally went home. He curled up in a corner of the garden and went to sleep. When morning caem, the dog was nowhere to be seen. His owners searched the house for him, then searched the garden, but he had vanished. -So where was he? Karma pricked his ears up. ~The dog was in the garden. All that grass and mud he'd rolled in got caught up in his fur and, since there were no reasonable fleas to clear the seeds away, sprouted overnight. The dog had grass growing all over him, and looked like any other part of the garden. Finally he woke up and wandered into the house, trailing grass and mud all over the kitchen and scaring hell out of his owners. Karma sniggered. -What happened? ~Well, the dog couldn't roll around in the grass after that. And if he did, they'd give him a bath, and comb all his fur out, which he hated. -What about the fleas? The Black Fox flashed a funny little smile. ~Someone happened upon them... She flicked her tail amiably. ~Just because there are things about yourself that you don't like, it doesn't mean they're not important. They're a part of you. And I like you. Karma blushed bright orange and smiled. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
