Sinister: she thought it would be fun to try most anything
by elizabeth trawick 26 Jan '03

26 Jan '03

I wonder what 'beautiful' is. Hello all, and to all a good day. Yesterday was a Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant day because I was in that mood. It's not my favourite Belle and Sebastian cd because I haven't really got a favourite. I brought my friend to a place downtown last night (my first time driving downtown, but I was too worried about not falling asleep to be scared) and we listened to Belle and Sebastian. I'm not so sure he likes them (in fact, I don't think he does), but they were very good background music for our conversation. Lately I've just been hanging about and trying to get college sorted. It's proving to be quite the task. Not for me, but for my parents. I won't go into that though because it's rather boring. I like Sundays. I always want to listen to fluffy music on Sunday because Sundays are like that, but I can't today. Today is a Smiths day. Louder Than Bombs will be my choice of listening today, simply because it has Asleep on it. When I'm sad I can listen to that song over and over (though it's probably not good for me). Music like that keeps me going. I like to listen to bad music sometimes as well just so I'll better appreciate the music I love. I listened to Saves the Day in my car the other day and my ears were relieved when I put in Beulah. Ah, the cuteness of that band never ceases to amaze me. Right. I'd like to say I had a good reason for posting, but I didn't. Since I have no content, I'll shamelessly plug my diary. http://feio.diaryland.com. I don't update much, but since everyone is putting links I might as well go along. Speaking of which, thank you all for putting links. As I am a voyeur, I love reading journals. It's one of the best past times I've come across. I guess I should use that time to study more, but that's no fun! Oh yes! I'm going to try harder to be more open to other music and books. I rarely read anymore, but when I do I really ejoy it. If any of you could suggest books for me to read and some music for me to listen to, it would be much appreciated. It doesn't matter what book or band it is, but please give me a little bit about it if it's a book so I'll semi know what to expect. Thank you all :) I'd better get going. I've got a very cute epic (I know, I know- epics aren't supposed to be cute!) to finish for English tomorrow and it has to be typed out. I pride myself on being a fast typer, but that's one long story and it might take quite a bit of time. xoxo, Elizabeth _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: somebody i've never met but in a way i know...
by Matthew Henderson 25 Jan '03

25 Jan '03

Hello everyone, So it seems I missed belle and sebastian on John Peel the other night. Perhaps i'll hear it someday. I heard the christmas show, but I still haven't heard the peel session previous to that. If anyone knows where I can get it... The Christmas Peel Session was fantastic though, wasn't it? I certainly loved it. I woke up at around 3 pm today. I'm in one of those crap moods. I have nothing to do tonight really, so it's a Saturday night inside. Those are always so depressing. I was thinking that when I decided to finally check belle and sebastian's website to find, lo and behold, Mr. Murdoch (yessssss??? where is heeee???) wrote something along those lines in his new diary entry. I quite enjoy his diary (is it called a blog?). Much more than most blogs I've read. I started a Clash Diaryring last year out of boredom, and everyone who has joined has been a whiny bucket of annoying. Terrible blogs about how depressed they are, how much they just LOVE MAYNARD and/or Trent. Those poor white suburban American teenagers. Their parents just don't understand them. Now my blog is often no joy ride, but I like to think I have some moments of sheer happiness. Nothing as such on these. It's as though the youth of blogging America are trying to outdo the others with problems and depression, as though it's some sort of street cred. Of course, I know first hand these people, and I can't stand them really. And I feel sorry for them. How can you not feel sorry for a strict Christian who is also a pregnant, 18 year old "Wicca" who also happens to be a lesbian with a male fiancee in New York. And cocaine is in that equation somewhere.* With a life as rough as that... I think people should just lighten up. Putting on the clash or a nice belle and sebastian record (which i don't have very many of as they are in storage, should I rebuy them?). OR! Put on Big Audio Dynamite's "Super Hits" (Best 3 pounds I've spent in a while) and listen to that force of nature that is the opening drum beats of "E=MC2". Of course, the downside to listening to that right now is I'm excited and full of energy. It'll be a while yet before I'll feel the need to sleep, and I don't much like sleeping these days anyway. I'd love to go dancing or just sit in a pub or whatever, but my fate is sealed. It's going to be a La Dolce Vita night. -Sightsee MC! Matt. *Not to say that's a real person... _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: pigtails
by Alex Goffey 25 Jan '03

25 Jan '03

hello again sinister... Somebody wrote in their subject line about pigtails. Honestly, I think pigtails could be the best hairstyle ever made. Well, perhaps not, but they're certainly so much fun to wear. Whenever I put my hair into pigtails, I feel like having fun. And I do, even if that does just mean putting on a record and jumping around to it. When I'm having a super great day (a day when I, say, wake up and the radio is - unusually - playing something really good, like Sleater-Kinney or Blur ... we're not granted THAT many privileges!), I'll put on video clips and just dance around to those, so it's double the pleasure. Because, hot diggety if the 'Lazy Line Painter Jane' clip doesn't make me ecstatic for an entire day or more. I saw 'Chicago' tonight and I enjoyed it so much! All that dancing and fishnets and 1920s glamour *sigh* I want to get my hair cut now, but then it would mean I wouldn't be able to wear my pigtails anymore. xox alex p.s. for another strange animal fact, I heard that if a magnet is placed over a lobsters head, it just rolls around and around, because its sense of direction is messed up...i could be wrong. ===================================== I took your advice and fixed my radio But I can't find anything that sounds good anymore http://www.geocities.com/veruca_salt_97/ http://darlingalex.diaryland.com/ _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.

Sinister: cold outside
by kevin m. clair 25 Jan '03

25 Jan '03

Sometimes I really wish that I had a car here at school, but then it snows and I remember that not driving sometimes isn't all that bad, really. Anyway, hello again. I haven't posted anything in a while, but I still read it when I'm ignoring my homework, which is all the time. I usually only ever post to one mailing list or one message board or my livejournal at a time, and so I get sidetracked. I've been dollying up my livejournal quite a bit. Now it's full of links and snide remarks everywhere, and really, what is the internet anymore if not a bunch of links connecting me to all my friends to all their friends? So I live in Minnesota, right, and it was cold here. I think it spent a couple of days below zero. Yesterday morning when my roommate went to work it was 17 below, and the other night the wind chill was pretty regularly in the -30s. Naturally, the only real solution was for me to spend three hours outside playing broomball. For the uninitiated, this is like hockey played outside with tennis shoes, unbristled brooms, and a bright orange soccer ball. It's the most entertaining game in the world if you are a masochistic Midwesterner, next to watching Cubs games. Now it's a quite balmy 13, and next week we may even see the positive side of the Celsius scale, which is stunning. I hope we don't, but I would like to stay on the positive side of the Fahrenheit scale for a long time. I forget what else I was going to say. Clearly it was important. There's always next time. I suppose I'll listen to the tape of my radio show again, so as to hear our funny song transitions - from Portishead to Senor Coconut! College radio w00! erm, Kevin +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Make it so...
by idleberry 25 Jan '03

25 Jan '03

Despite my attempts to unsubscribe with this email addy, it seems sinister is having none of it. So let that be a message of fate, divine intervention, or whatever. I've not posted for a while, and I felt inclined. I, like so many have already mentioned (featherboa and Mark Casarotto spring readily to mind, like Zebadee in the Magic Roundabout) have been devoting my ego to the massagings of a blog. Initially, I thought blogs were a waste of space and time. I remember reading in some HTML for Dummies book, that really, content was always important. It mentioned something about diaries, and how only really, your mum would want to read about how crap you felt cos you had a cold, etc. That was offputting. Then I decided I wanted to be one of those who could gratiously go on about themselves for days on end, and have people read it. As someone who can go on about herself for days on end, it seemed the perfect medium in which to conduct my self-centred written ego-wanking, and enjoy the idea of it being watched by tens of people. So it came to be. I have a blog. I write on it. And now, what use does sinister serve me? It states firmly, in the Rules That Must Be Obeyed, something about not writing dear diary style entries. Of course, I ignored that, and did it anyway. Now I have a diary/ blog in which I can do these things purposefully. So by the time it gets to sinister, I'm all me-me-me'd out. It doesn't mean I don't read sinister. Oh, I do, I do. I read it during my lunch break. And with two email addys receiving it (I tried to get this one stopped - it didn't happen. I can't be arsed unsubscribing again, and I dunno which one I don't want getting your posts)I hve ample chance to read. I also play a sad game of matching up stats random phrases from #sinister. http://honey.crockery.org/auntwendy/stats.html Me and another sinisterian do this via email. Each quote, for those of you who don't know, is random. We make up little conversations, matching random quotes that could work together. Below are examples. hobnob "i just want to ogle nicole kidman's weird fake nose" kirsten "her nose looks like it's caved in" ree "and in interviews she's dumb as rocks" GayJay "I want to be a fundamentalist Televangelist sometimes." Pythia "believe me, it's too cold." millkmaid "i wish i could suddenly kiss boys" worktails "feel free to start tying me to the furniture too... ;-)" retro^sec "are you planning any gigs soon?" municipal "aye, Sunderland (wherever that is)" RealOuch "i have to fork out �700 on the 31st" phatlip "for stainless steel, it's pretty fucking pricey" Its a sad game, but what else am I meant to do in my lunch, after I've read my horoscope and the letters page in the Metro, and scowered the bbc website for anything interesting, eaten my sandwiches, sipped my diet coke*, eaten my apple and checked the b+s site for new diary entries and read some of the latest sinster posts? I've got an age-long half hour to kill, after all. I didn't hear the B+S song on the John Peel thing last night. Forgive me mummy, for I have sinned. I was out drinking instead. There was a photo in the Sunday Times last week, of protesters at Loch Long. It seemed to coincide with a certain diary of a certain pop-star in a certain band that a certain mailing list is sort of about. Ok. Enough. I'm just getting back into the swing of posting now, and I need to take it easy til I'm up o speed on postability. Love idles * occasionally its full-fat coke, when I've got PMT, need a sugar boost, or am having a shitty day at work. ps. blog is http://www.retrosec.blogspot.com end of advert and list abuse. ===== http://groups.yahoo.com/group/corduroysmoke/ starting playground gossip and passing notes __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Sinister: I had a crush on Louise Wener in 1995. I'm sure I wasn't alone.
by Sam Walton 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

Hello Sinister. I'm feeling a bit peaky this evening (which reminds me of a Sleeper lyric: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Studio/7341/itgirl.html) mainly because I've had quite a Week Of Rawk, one way or another. Games of late-night poker which end up more like early-morning, motown club nights and seeing Supergrass have all made me feel that if I have another late one I might just die. So I thought I'd spare you all the grizzly circumstances that would doubtless follow my death, and stay in tonight instead with The Book Group (http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bookgroup/index.html) and CM3 (http://www.thedugout.net) for company. I bought a very flash pair of headphones the other day, and I have been using them rather a lot. I have to admit, I do feel like a quite the prog-rock fan sitting in my comfy chair in my room with two great cans on the side of my head, but I don't really mind. I was listening to Storytelling through them the other day, and I have to say they really can improve a record. I mean, I like Storytelling anyway, but hearing it so crisply really improves it. I really think that everybody should watch The Book Group tonight, if like me you're too sad to actually get of the house. It's a very Sinister programme, if you know what I mean; it's literary, sly, witty, a tad melodramatic and very cultish. Anyway, I think you should watch it.

Sinister: Warning signs of a Chicago picnic
by The Cat's Pajamas 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

This is a tremor, a precursor, a precognition of things to come. Since Chicago is such a wonderful place in late May, I figure it would be a great time to have a picnic. We all may die of either heatstroke OR hypothermia, but usually Chicago is a relatively pleasant at that time of year. I'm hoping to gather as many folks from as far and as wide as possible, so please check your calendars to see if you can make it and e-mail me off list so I can get a vague idea of who might be attending so I can figure out what to do. This brings up my second question...if you came to Chicago what would you want to do? Going to Wrigley field for any out of towners is usually a good experience, and Stuart IS a cubs fan, so maybe we'll see him there. If anybody out there has any suggestions, or if any locals read this and know of fun things to do, let me know. I'll keep people posted periodically as things progress...

Sinister: I would protect you from beasts
by Today I am hungover but cuddly as a bunny anyway 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

Good morning darlings, I hope you all slept well. Last night I had the good fortune to bump into my friend Kate who invited me for vodka drinks, the effects of which I am still feeling. In a good way though. Whenever I have been drinking the night before I rarely sleep past eight the next morning. So I'm sitting here with some pretty astounding bedhead and finally getting around to writing to you all. I've been back at school for two weeks now, after having gone to California, and then to Iceland. The California trip was with my family, meaning my brother and I had a great time goofing off and my mother ruined it by being miserable and trying to make the trip a Wholesome Family Vacation. Not only that but she gave me crap about drinking too much soda. Yet, I did get a picture of myself taken caressing Wayne Newton's star on the walk of fame (which we had to park in front of a porn shop to get to) so I guess I won out in the end. Iceland was amazing. I partied with Russian in Reykjavik on New Year's Eve. The Russians were fantastic. They shared with us what they had, bought us pizza, drove us to the mountains and the blue lagoon, and hardly even tried to woo us. On the whole the trip was lovely and astounding. Unfortunately it was marred by my supposed best friend doing something mindnumbingly crap to me at the end of it. We still need to have a talk. We did bump into sigur ros in Keflavik on the way home. They were all smiley and polite. I want to take them home and cook them a good meal. On a vaguely content related note, I have been taking belle and sebastian for walks with me. It's been very solitary lately with the butt-biting cold we've been having, but I like it all the same. I love to walk around campus listening to music, singing along ever so softly. I love to disappear into the trees and buildings and people who don't know me. Belle and sebastian is good for that because it makes me smile, and when I'm walking amongst people who don't know me I try to smile at them, in the hopes that I can make a stranger smile. Now that you've scrolled and skimmed I'll do my usual begging for some kind of Boston meet up. I realize that the aforementioned butt-biting cold makes picnics a lot less fun, so maybe we could go to the aquarium, or museum of science, or sushi and karaoke. I'll even be in charge if you want. Email me, call me (picnic) mommy, and I'll lift a car to save your life (because mothers can do that when their young are endangered) Love and fireworks, Kara www2.bc.edu/~brielman _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Sinister: My unending fascination for girls with pigtails
by Dean Gillon 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

Hello. I met Belle and Sebastian once. Well sort of I did. Me and my lass-at-the-time went to see them play in Scarborough, oooh, about 18 months or so back. And very good they were too, except we had to sit down at the gig. I've never been to a sitty-doon gig before and I'm not too sure I like it. I'm used to sweaty moshpits with everyone drinking lager. This was a much more civilised do. Everyone sitting down, eating candyfloss and ice-creams and drinking panda pops (not really made from pandas non-uk people. At least I don't think so). In the bar beforehand some guy spilt my drink and I honestly thought he was going to start crying. Ahhh, don't you just love it? You wouldn't get that at a Puddle of Mudd gig. Anyway, after the gig we got back to the hotel and some young scallywag had broken into our room and swiped my mobile, my shirt and my lass-at-the-time's glasses! why on earth would someone steal someone's glasses? Not happy, and if I'd have gotten hold of him I would have put on my disembowelling hat. Next day, we were walking into town to get the train home when who should be loading up their bus but young Struan and, I think, Mick (could be wrong). Sarah was there too and she was wearing the same jumper that she had on on-stage the night before - uurrr! "Nice gig last night" I said, "thank you very much" said Struan. "Yeah, it was tops" couldn't think of anything else to say so walked off and bought a tin robot (really). Why on earth I didn't get them to sign my ticket or CDs or something I don't know. Why I didn't steal Isobel is beyond me. oh well, you've got to move on haven't you? ANyway, the important bit. Did you know all polar bears are left handed? They end up smudging their work with their whopping A3 sized paws because we right left to right. I think that this may be the main reason why there has never been a really popular polar bear novel - their work is always rejected by the publishers because of the terrible presentation before they get chance to read it. Either that or they can't write in the first place because they can't find their white paper (think about it). I think we should all chip in and buy typewriters and bright paper to encourage them. Set up a charity or something. Bye Dean X A geordie lass went into the hairdressers and asked for a perm. The hairdresser said "I wandered lonely as a cloud". __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
