Sinister: and then the night, the curtian falls upon us
by s. lord 16 Jan '03

16 Jan '03

it is interesting - to think that one can be in so much love - and be in so much sadness - it is not right - nor is it healthy - to have the perfect person infront of you - to be sleeping with the man you want to be with forever - and have it all decided by distances - is not right - i was told this last weekend - that i couldn't love someone - nor could he love me - because we lived more then two hours apart - and that to him - it was not an option - to be in or even start a relationship with such a great vast of land seperating us - i thought that it was bull at first - i mean - as i asked - why do you suddenly feel this way? - never before had he expressed any interesting in building a romance - althougth one was already firmly in place - and never before had he said that he didn't want a long distance one - and i will agree - long distance relationships are doomed to failure - but this situation is different - the type of feelings expressed and shown go far beyond anything i have yet experienced - but it was not be be - he said it can not be - he said he did love me - and if i lived in town we would be togeather for the rest of his time - but not now - and not like this - so now i am thinking - that for one to be in love - perhaps one must be sad - so i pose this question - to feel love - do you have to feel complete sadness? do you have to hit rock bottom to know the highs? - thank you for listening - -s.lord ------------------------------------------------------ what we place most hopes upon, generally proves most fatal - vicar of wakefield _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8 is here: Try it free* for 2 months http://join.msn.com/?page=dept/dialup +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: give me a firm place to stand and i will move the earth
by Jonathan Skinner 15 Jan '03

15 Jan '03

Dear All this may be the hardest post that i have ever ever written. I am leaving you. i bear no grudge or ill will against most if not all of you , that is to say i won't do an isabelark or what ever . I just feel it is time for me to move on. Sinister has been a pretty big part of my life for the last 4 years but i think i should go off for a while. The list has grown rather stagnant of late with the posts not being as stimulating and simulating as they used to be, perhaps it is my own doing that i have allowed myself to lose interest in the list but i find it rather hard to get excited about bowling meets in england that i can never go to , clubs nights i crave to but can't go to simply cos i live on the wrong island. sinister has raised my expectations of people but it has also made me feel very isolated. i think i have to get real, now. never before or never again shall i come across 1400 interesting people that all have a different perspective than i but also one that agrees mostly with me , well it used to be the case anyway. I realised that it isn't real. no matter what is said i still have to go on my day to day life with people that aren't like me in manner that perhaps isn't me but unfortunatly that is real life and i can't bloack myself away from it no matter how hard i try - perhaps i am not making myself clear as i would want to. Basically i want to move on with my life-. also i suppose i have never really felt the urge to meet up with anyone whatsoever and no need to open my heart on here i sort of feel like an outsider anyway. i leave you with the words of a 13th century song "guadeamus igitur , iuvenes dum sumus" indeed let us be happy while the we are young godspeed jonathan +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Coordinate, accessorise, and learn what goes with your hair and eyes
by Christine Irene 15 Jan '03

15 Jan '03

i do believe that is the first time I have referenced a Mary-Kate and Ashley song in a post before. I will try not to make a habit of this. That is actually from my personal favourite MK&A song, "Fashion Jr. High" I find this song surprisingly tolerable. As sick of those twins as I am, I would gladly take them over Barney the dinosaur. I used to think that Barney was Joe McCarthy reincarnated. I have since reevalutated my stance on this and determined thusly that he is much more of a Joseph Stalin type. I mean really, with that communistic grin and all of those songs about "sharing" who does he think he is fooling. bastard. So in my post yesterday I neglected to mention the thing that was the whole point of my posting in the first place. I enter radio station contests all of the time. you know the kind I mean. You can win movie passes, tickets to gigs, collector cd's and so on. Having entered prolly 93888373 of these contests in my day, guess what I won on Monday? I won VIP enterence for myself and as many friends as I wish to bring to the Hogs N" Honey's Kid Rock Birthday Bash. Unbefuckingleivable. Now granted, this is not a contest that I entered on my own. For this particular radio station, if you register to be a "member" of their site, you are entered into any contest therin posted. So this Friday I can go to a big ol' Harley bar in Chicago and celebrate the king of white trash. I don't think that mr. rock himself will be there...thank god. Not that I am actually going to go mind you....though, once i was told that my prize included free rides on the mechanical bull all night, i may have to reconsider my stance on this. :o) My friends and I can also have all of the draught miller we want all night for free....this is most tempting considering that I only drink water and fruit juice. how insane. anyway, i hope that all of you are doing well. I know that I owe at least....5 of you emails...I'm working on it...baby steps. I feel it only appropriate to close with another MK&A ditty.... I'm ice cream crazy No ifs and buts or may-ay-ay-bes ice cream crazy cuz i'm an ice cream ice cream bay-ay-ay-ay-beeee love, the biker bitch... ~stine __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Sinister: It's a good thing Proust is dead, butterfly boy!
by Laura Llew 15 Jan '03

15 Jan '03

The original subject line for this post was, "SPECS APPEAL OR girls who wear glasses are desirable lasses. Really, we are. May I have my chocolate covered boy now, please?" However, that stupid butterfly boy over at MSN doesn't understand my need for long subject lines but is into truncation of my usually unbearably long sentences. Ohhh, it's a good thing Marcel Proust is dead or he would be UP IN ARMS! Well, maybe laying down in his bed in arms. Whatever it was, there would be arms - and since it's Proust - probably whips too. Onward and upward folks. Jay went for the juglar with, "She's a busy girl, of course, with her store and extravagant social life and whirlwind romance afoot." It must have been quite the whirlwind romance indeed and happened so fast that I wasn't even cognizant of its existence. Last time I recall liking a boy, it took me three years to manage to speak to him without turning foot and running. So, this romance - details please. Were they cute? Were they foreign? Was that the reason I liked them - because I couldn't understand what they were saying (mighty attractive quality you must admit)? Did I follow them around hopelessly while furtively looking through the language dictionary book trying to stutter out phrases such as, "I love the way you lisp when you try to say my name" and "You are you paying for this, aren't you?" Or is the reason I don't remember something to do with Markelby C-my-assarotto's statement of, "when I eventually get Laura Llew into my boudoir I shall render her stupefied"? Was my original reaction to this statement true in that I would already have to be stupefied in order for me to end up there in the first place? Did someone slip me a roofie? Well, I suppose this post is going to be all about setting the record straight. I've always considered my only charm to be my consistency in being single. Of course, this might be because I think relationships are for SUCKAHS.. which leads me to my second clarification of the evening which is that I was indeed going to do the Valentine's Day Exchange. However, I was just waiting for January 17th which is the anniversary of when my best friend got really drunk and confessed his love to me so I spent the rest of the night resisting the urge to poke him out of his alcohol induced unconsciousness to ask him if when he said he loved me if it was "I love you like I would a matronly dumpling of a convent nun" or if it was a "I'm IN love with you and would like to eventually snog the life out of you but if you prefer we can wait until my breath doesn't smell like wet dog. Now if you'll excuse me I'll pass out in a lovely puddle of my own drool." However, I never got the courage to clarify. If Christmas is all about getting drunk and insulting your blood relations, then Valentines Day is all about being muddled by a crush and consuming two pounds of chocolate in hopes you'll forget about it or at least slip into a chocolate induced coma. My point, which is as dull as I am, is that far be it from me to deter GayJay from meeting his -until now- unrequited desires to pack on the adipose tissue, drop most of his clothes, and wield sharp weapons in hopes of matching Sinisterines so the best luck to him in the Valentines Day Exchange and to everyone who participates in hopes that it will result in disco balls, strobe lighting effects, and getting it awn. I mean, I love you all - even those of you who I feel like are my slightly slow, raised-by-monkeys, 4 year old brothers. In other news, for the first time ever I had a very sinister New Year. Not in the tight leather, shooting up heroin and getting slipped roofies (or so I THOUGHT) way but in the cozy new york scenester set as I drove up there with GayJay to be with the best hostess in the world Miss Laurel, Sir Matthew (the first person to ever write back to something I posted to Sinister), the most clever Hobnob Brian, Will Porter (who, thankfully, is as fantastic and as foxy as I've spent the past three years declaring that he was), and then later the infamous and swoonfully cute BILWWNLM. I wish there was someone subpar in the group so I could make thinly veiled insulting comments about them so I didn't seem like such a sycophant but the truth is I loved and am quite smitten with them all. Sick, isn't it? They even took me to the Algonquin where too expensive cocktails were drunk, insults were sniped, and eyes made at some skinny Russian boy with a big head and bad hair because evidently other people like skinny boys with bad hair. These are the type of people who get involved in relationships. See why I think they're for suckahs? xo, Ll 'meeting all your Laura Llew needs since 1977' ps - In this post I quoted Miss Maddie Minx and Sir Brian In The Orange Toboggan. They're the really clever statements. The drivel is mine. pps - Apologies to those who requested a Christmas post from me but I was really quite ill. Not that you should feel guilty for being an uncaring and selfish bastard in not rushing over here with tea, soup, and offers to plump my pillows (not a euphemism, not a euphemism) because I understand how it is. Really, I do. ppps - I LOVE HONEY. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE 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: 2003 doesn't suck... please...
by Francisco López 15 Jan '03

15 Jan '03

2002 was, to me, some kind of living hell. Argentina fall into a big economic and social depression, very similar to the one we lived on 89 (i was only 4, but somehow i still remember). The half of the country was cosidered under de line of poorty. You can see people, at the street, wondering thru trash, trying to find something to eat. And it's a lot of people. Lots of kids dying because of nutrition problems and the feeling that you can't do anything to stop it. On the other hand, there's the goverment. Do you remember the talking head's son "don't worry about the goverment"?. Well, we can't. 20 of December 2001, really early in the morning, masses of people got together and asked for food at the doors of big (foreing) super market chains. They refused to give. People got nervous. Things got violent. De la Rua, president at the time, who actually never did nothing, saw a problem on those "violent thieves". Somehow, he thougt it was a good idea to give fully power to the police. It was illegal to have reuniones after 8 pm. People thought it wasn't such a great idea. Somehow, people got together, infront doors of goverment ofice, shouting and demanding that they leave, all of them. After some violent crushing between policeman and poeple (wich included gun shooting from the police and and all kind of abuse), the president leaved. We all thoght that was a good thing. It was a sign. We had the power. Things will change. Well, things didn't. Somehow, a narco man that had some past on plitics got to be president (a non-elected one, of course). Just for a while, untill elections. It's been over a year now, and there were no elections, more and more people dyes just because they don't have anything to eat, and nothing have changed... On a personal level, 2002 sucked too. At school, i found my self on a room fulled of "pears" that i really don't like. I grounded myself, more and more, into this guy with no social skills. I dislike people, they dislike me. And i know that's pure social inhibition, but somehow, i can't get out of my weird books and my belle and sebastian records. I kept on being the "weird guy". I kept on making the same stupid things to push people away from me... So, this year, i came to a conclution. 2003 won't suck. I keep on repeating that, once and again. I know it's stupid to think that this year will be better than the other just because i say so. But i have to belive it. I have to let my self to it. To belive... Anyway, i don't know why i'm writing this, i just needed it, so sorry for all of this off-topic that no one cares about... Positive hugs to all of you, Silly Fran PS: Some people replyed to my first message, and i replyed to them, but i'm not so sure that those mails got sended correctly, and they are losted... sorry... PPS: I promess the next message i'll post will be a good-happy-positive one... And it will talk, actually, about belle and sebastian... +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: I'm on a roll, I'm on a roll, I feel my luck could change
by Christine Irene 14 Jan '03

14 Jan '03

So, with the memories of a horrid 2002 slowly dissipating from my psyche, 2003 continues to be off to a splendid start. Greetings, I am happy to be here with you. It seems that i may have FINALLY found a school which A) I will be happy attending B) Has a programme specifically for audio engineering and production and; C) I may actually be able to afford! Well, that is with the hope that the family that I work for continues to pay my tuition and such, as they have so generously done in the past. Amazing. I am just so happy right now. Also, on Sunday night at my local Amnesty International meeting, I was elected to be the new media person. Well, I suppose that eludes to the notion that there was indeed, an old media person. The truth is that, apparently, this sort of person was much needed. And these people, whom I have only met 2 times, one of them but once, think that I can handle this! They know of my music promoting experience and think that I will do a good job of getting the word out on our lil chapter, writing press releases, keeping in touch with the newspapers, etc. Ah yes, Christine A Infanger, Amnesty International paparazzi. Perhaps I can stalk celebrity types doing good deeds toward humanity. THE 3 AM GIRLS CATCH FERGIE WRITING LETTERS TO POLITICAL PRISONERS!!! SHOCKING PHOTOS!! MADONNA VOWS THAT, IN AN EFFORT TO BRING PEACE TO THE WORLD, SHE WILL NEVER SING AGAIN!!! J. LO GIVES PITY BLOW JOBS TO PRISONERS IN TIBET....THEN BUYS THEM MEDICATION TO TREAT THE DISEASES THAT SHE GAVE THEM hey, it could happen. :o) perhaps i have found my calling. :o) Oh yeah, a couple of sinisters emailed me off list asking my AIM id....I, stupdily, deleted your emails without having replied to you. to those who find it of interest.. they are... Toadie291 OR IWishIHadARivers imagine, joni mitchell and weezer references in one screen name! i was so proud when i thought that up. anyway, there ya have it. i would tell you my ICQ#, but frankly, I have no idea what it is. Nor am I ever really on ICQ. So that about wraps up this episode of the Cosby Show...oh wait, wong email. Right then. I leave you peace, my peace i give you. ~stine __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

Sinister: I'm a drifter, I'm a lover, I'm a drifter, I'm a lover......
by Mark Hester 13 Jan '03

13 Jan '03

An exchange, just heard, outside in my street: Cyclist #1: "That guy had really cute eyebrows" Cyclist #2: "Pardon???" Like the second cyclist, I have some difficulty in believing that one can have really cute eyebrows. Mind you, until this afternoon I would have had difficulty believing it was possible to buy an Intastella compilation. I found one in hmv tho, and a 2 cd comp to boot! Intastella sound like a very unlucky band, judging by the blurb from Mojo's Lois Wilson, but listening to the first cd, the more misfortune they suffered, the better the music got. "Drifter" was absolutely superb, it was sheer pleasure to be reacquainted with it...it's just a pity it was overshadowed on the same EP by "Can You Fly Like You Mean It (Gungadin)" with vocals by that Shaun Ryder. Dunno 'bout you, but I never rated him at all post-Mondays. I never liked Black Grape for example. Stella Grundy. Overshadowed by a Monday. Fortunately only one one track. Where's Stella Grundy Now? According to Lois, she has released a solo single called "Now and then I get high". Well don't we all. I've prolly left it too late to say Happy New Year, or even Happy Epiphany, but it's here that my landlord's Slovakian calendar helps us out coz it shows how it's a saint's day *every day*. So, step forward one ST. RASTISLAV. Happy St. Rastislav's Day! The only Slovak dread? We can but hope.... Nice pics Ian. Nice smile Stuart. Angela, what of T.O.? Well, I was there two years ago, so things might've changed a bit, but I went to a great little venue called the Horseshoe and saw the super furries, an enormous warehouse of a venue called, erm, the warehouse where I saw Stereolab supporting Sonic Youth and went to a couple of clubs, one of which was called El Morcambo, played a lot of Northern soul, a bit of St Etienne and was peopled by characters dressed up like Gary Numan, Steve Strange and Suggs. There's never enough hours in the day to listen to all the bands I'd like to hear, but if anyone can tell me anything about Interpol, Serial P.O.P., Dudley Corporation or Of Montreal then I'd love to hear from you. I might be going to see Of Montreal at the end of the month actually. At the end of the week, the latest local lads to be bigged up by Nightshift, Elizabeth, are playing at the newly-refurbished Wheatsheaf so I will almost certainly pop along.

Sinister: Valentines Day Express
by Jay Eckard 13 Jan '03

13 Jan '03

Hello Folks... Some wise one -- and I don't remember who -- asked the irrepressible Ms Llew to organize a St. Valentines Day's Massacre. Er, Xchange. Well, she's not. She's a busy girl, of course, with her store and extravagant social life and whirlwind romance afoot. You can't very well expect Laura to do everything for you lot. Fortunately, as I have just ended a romance with someone with whom albino dwarves cheat on* and being dead**, I have a bit of an empty plate before me. It is therefore with no small amount of pride I announce my attention to me Mummy for The Great Valentine's Day Exchange. That's right, all interested parties can email me off list -- jayeckard(a)hotmail.com -- to express interest. Let me know your full name and address, whether you want to be a boy or girl (aren't screen names fun?), whether you want to send to a boy or girl (Or better yet, don't care), and whether you're a cheap bastard who'll only send within your country of residence. AND LET ME KNOW BY 31 JANUARY. THIS GIVES ME ENOUGH TIME TO WORK MY MAGIC AND EMAIL YOU BACK BY THE 2ND FEBRUARY SO WE ALL CAN GET OUR GIFTS ON TIME. AND IF YOU'RE THE ONLY BASTARD FROM YOUR COUNTRY, WELL, I'LL TALK TO YOU SEPERATE. I'll put all the appropriate names in one of my dapper hats***, pull them out and random to make Luv Connexions and commence with Romantical Glee. For telling me all these details, you get a lovely gift from a stranger and a fuzzy warm feeling of Sinister Solidarity. And if anyone wants to be my Person**** Friday and be a Jolly Good Assistant in the Minxie Mode, let me know. Your Massacre Mummy, l'Autre (Gay) Jay * Oh, don't I wish this wasn't true. But it is. ** Yep. Rumour in the home village says I ODed three years ago. *** Just ask: many folk have seen muh hats. **** Boy or Girl, I Don't Care. It's All Good. -- "The Posby falls into a Trance In which it does a little Dance."
