Sinister: it could have been a brilliant end to a career

hello everyone - first off a big thanks to paul stinsoni for the wonderful and yet somewhat nauseating description of his surgery - i for one - know now i will never be getting such a thing - not that i was ever interested - personally i - i really don't have much to worry about getting a girl pregnant - since i like boys instead - but still it was nice to know - hope the boys are feeling better now - second - stine~ wrote about coldplay and the song the scientist - and i wanted to say that the song also evokes the need to cry in me - i am not sure exactly what it is - but that song is just really touching - when i hear it all i can do is think about when my friend was in the hospital and i suddenly turn into his wreck of a person - which i guess means that they really did their work - to write a song that has an effect like that on people is powerful - very impressive - so there was a point to this post - but i have since forgotten it cause i am watching cartoon network - and there is a show on here about hamsters - honestly - i have never seen this before in my life - i usually watch cartoons in the afternoon when i get home from school - but i am so completely confused as to why there is a cartoon about hamsters - for what i just watched - there is really nothing to interesting in the show - the kids who owned the hamster - had a problem with her dad and the hamster kept her company and made her forget the problem - that was it - what the hell was that! - not to mention the hamsters - there are many of them who belong to other kids - escape from their cages and all meet up to chat and share snacks - i am not sure what to think of this show - perhaps if i watch it more it will grow on me - or maybe i will just hate it - now i remember what i was going to say - so i will be graduating here in two weeks and two days - after five years of college - i can say that i am really not as jazzed about this as i thought it would be - i figured i would be completely happy to get out of school and finally start my life - instead i am just kinda ho-hum about the whole thing - ya i graduate - oh well - i now need to find a job - this is kinda disappointing - i was hoping for more then this - and it is a let down as of yet - but i guess i still have about two weeks for it to get better or for something to happen - oh well well for now that is all - hope everyone is doing well - much love to you all - --scott lord ------------------------------------------------------ what we place most hopes upon, generally proves most fatal - vicar of wakefield _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 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: Spaghetti
by Paulo Stinsoni 24 Apr '03

24 Apr '03

Bonjour tout le monde, Ca Va? Do you remember all those French lessons starting like that? (when learning French as a foreign language that is) Oh how I miss Marie France et Claudette. Well, on 3rd April I had a vasectomy (http://www.langton-medical.co.uk/Vasectomy.htm) and I've been in pain on and off since. I really want to go into all the nasty details. Can I? I want to share it. OK, seeing as I got a little ESP stylee message in my brain saying it was OK to talk, then I will. **Stop here if you're squeemish*** You have to lie back on the operating table, and the surgeon (not to be confused with Sturgeon, that's a fish) injected my, ahem, area, and proceded to make a small (1cm) cut, and then pull out my left hand side piece of spaghetti with a crochet hook... I can't go on, but you can get the details from the link. I was awake through the operation, and the surgeon (not a fish) used a funny laser/electro cutter to make the cut. It kind of burns through your skin, and I could smell burning flesh... OK I'm stopping. Anyway, after all that I was laid up for a week, unable to walk about, except in a painful way (probably due to the clamps I had on each of my, ahem, thingys during the op) and I looked like John Wayne (I think it was the big hat and the chaps that did it) I had an ice pack on the area for the week. Anyway, the pain comes back, not as sharply, but it still comes back now and then, and I just don't think it's fair. I tell you what though, B&S mixed with Devil May Cry 2 makes you feel better, so if you're thinking of it, get a PS2 and an ice pack. See ya P. _________________________________________________________________ Get Hotmail on your mobile phone http://www.msn.co.uk/mobile +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Just thought I'd say...
by Matthew Clift 24 Apr '03

24 Apr '03

...Hello all, First-time poster, long-time reader (to paraphrase the radio phone-in spiel). Nothing much to say, just thought I'd introduce myself as I've been reading your wisdom/musing/rambling for a few weeks since I joined Sinister and I was starting to feel like an eavesdropper... so I thought I'd crowbar my way into the conversation. About me, hmm... I live in South Yorkshire and I've only been into B&S for a year or so. Seemed to discover them just as life was going tits-up i.e. my marriage broke up, and it's fair to say that they helped me through some really shitty months. Now that things are on an even keel, and I'm enjoying single life all over again at 30 (and 10 days) I find that they still mean as much to me as they did then. Know why...? Because B&S don't remind me of the crap times, they remind me that no matter how crap the crap times are, you can put on a CD and be transported away from them... at least for a while. That's the power of all great music, not just B&S... Anyway, I'll leave it there before I disappear up my own arse. Thanks for reading this far (if you still are). Can't wait for Glasgow May 17th when I pop my B&S live cherry. Will no doubt see some of you there (even if neither of us will be aware of that fact). If anyone fancies replying, either via Sinister or direct, then please do... I'm quite a nice bloke when you get to know me, honest. Cheers, Matthew. __________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Sinister: not really a point to this
by kevin m. clair 24 Apr '03

24 Apr '03

Hi, The other night I had a dream where I had gone to Chicago for a Belle and Sebastian concert. I was sitting around in the subway in Chicago at the Jackson stop waiting to transfer to the red line to go to the show, which apparently was at the Metro, and somehow I had fallen asleep in the subway. It was really well-lit. I was woken up by this dude I know named Jack, who told me that it was 2:00 in the morning and the concert was over. I responded by punching out a window which was in the subway for some reason. I don't know why it was such a violent dream, as I'm not a particularly violent person and glass hurts. It's still the most awesome dream ever. I haven't written in a while, which is mostly because I'm lazy and didn't really have anything to say. Now I'm just not lazy anymore. I've been hanging around in #sinister a bit lately; I think I said that in my last e-mail. I'd do it more often if it weren't for this school business. I've also been doing a radio show, which this term has gone surprisingly well. We have public affairs segments and singalongs. I don't think we have a very large audience but my friends who listen seem to enjoy it. There are mp3s. I'm going to go see Yo La Tengo in June. And probably the Faint in May. That should be fun. I will also be in Minnesota this summer. I expect to contract both Lyme disease and the West Nile virus by August. Also I will be in Chicago a lot, hopefully not punching windows or sleeping in the subway. whee. Since I know like one person on this list, I am in favour of some sort of social gathering this summer. Not that Chicago needs excuses. Andrea Kittenmouse pointed me to the Animal Crossing website last night. I don't really know how to feel about it. I'm not going to run out and buy a Gamecube to play it but if you own one you should definitely get it, and then tell me about it, because it's amusing. I'm always a bit surprised by how far video games have come from the days of King's Quest IV, but Duck Hunt is still awesome. So I'm pretty off track at this point. Basically what I have to say is that spring is great, and I'd like for summer to not show up, really, except for the part where I don't have school then. not the news from lake wobegon, -kevin "You should never wear your best trousers while going out to fight for truth and freedom." -- Henrik Ibsen +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

I've just listened to this song (The Scientist), and i don't know why, but it made me feel a little sad. Don't know. Didn't have a bad day or anything. It's such a sad song... Reminded me of a quote from the High Fidelity movie: "What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?" Victor.

Sinister: nobody said it was easy, no one ever said it would be this hard
by Christine Irene 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

hi everyone. i hope that this email finds all of you well. the sun is shining today, but that is about all that is nice about it. easter was nice. i hung out at my gram's and didn't argue with anyone. yesterday was shit. it was my friend katie's birthday and i wasn't planning on seeing her until this weekend. i tried to finish making her present but my burner just wasn't having it. i went to katie's house after work and she gave me an easter basket. i felt like an arse. it was her birthday and she was giving me a gift. when attempting to make plans, she got into an argument with her boyfriend. i decided to go and leave them some privacy. i got to my car and checked my voicemail where i had a message from someone i owe money to. oh yeah, i forgot to mention that, according to my atm print out, i have exactly $0.00 in the bank. so i was all upset and driving along listening to "The Scientist" by Coldplay on repeat. I must have been in my own little world because, when i noticed the police car behind me, i promptly got over to the right side to let him by....unfortunately, when i stopped, so did he. it seems i was going 39 in a 25. i don't doubt this was true, i had no idea how fast i was going. my eyes were too blurry to see most things anyway. just as officer friendly was going to his car to write up my ticket, the line "nobody said it was easy, it's such a shame for us to part. nobody said it was easy, no one ever said it would be so hard. take me back to the start." i was thinking of how nice that would be. to just start over. a whole new life, a new set of rules. situations i would be more prepared to handle. situations that i would be in control of. as i continued listening to the song, letting chris martin soothe me as best he could, i was thinking about gwyneth paltrow and how unfair things are. she is tripe, in every capacity (based on little fact as i don't know her personally) and she gets to have a boy who can sing to her like that. can you imagine knowing stuart murdoch really well? can you imagine how nice it would be to, after a shite day, have him sing you to sleep. you could go through anything at all, and him singing would make it all go away. he could sing anything and i would believe him, simply because he has the voice of an angel. that would be nice. so mr. policeman returned and gave me my ticket. he then informed me that, since he was so nice, he was only going to give me 1 ticket and a warning for not having changed the address on my drivers license. after that, i was hysterical. i know that everyone's life is hard at times. the thing is, when it's your life, the tried and true cliches of "that's life" and "it'll be okay" just don't seem to hold muster. i called my mom to cry to her. she told me to quit driving and settle down a bit. then my step dad got on the phone and proceeded to yell at me; "why are you so upset? everyone gets speeding tickets." "becasue i have no money in the bank, i owe everyone money and i have to go and look at a place to live tomorrow and i have no idea how i'm going to pay for it." "well settle down. you're a grown woman, you're going to have to learn to deal with this shit without getting hysterical." somehow, i found his words less than consoling, so i hung up and cried harder. i was going to go to work, i was right near there. then i decided that i didn't want the girls to see me like that. so i went back to katie's house. she opened the door and she was crying. she looked at me and i was crying. she was still fighting with her boy, so we went out for coffee and traded tales of woe. this is exactly how we spent her birthday last year. birthdays are crap. so that is my weekend in a nutshell. well not really. saturday was nice. the family that i work for gave me money for easter, so i decided to get my hair cut and coloured, which i hadnt done for ages. while at the salon, my massage therapist came over to ask how my health has been and how i had been doing about my dad and all. i told her that a couple of weeks ago i was trying to get an appointment with her, but she was busy. she told me that she had a 4:00 opening. knowing fully that i am (as ordered by a doctor) *supposed* to get massages weekly, decided to make the appointment. i figured, at the very least, i have the money that i got for easter. to kill time, i went to the irish shop ( my favourite one) near my salon. i fell in love with a white gold, diamond and sapphire claddagh....it was $500, so i didnt buy it. i opted, instead, for 4 rolls of pastilles ( i love those things!) and was on my way. my massage was lovely and christine, my therapist, told me that my back was extremely tight and that i needed more time with her. i told her that i just can't afford to see her weekly. i know i need to. i know i'm supposed to. i told my doctor once that i would be more than happy to get weekly massages if he paid for them. he just looked at me. they cost a dollar a minute, that adds up pretty quicklky. so anyway. now i am at work. no one yells at me here. i don't owe anyone money here. the girls love me and i them. it's a nice place to be. ~stine __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Sinister: Ease The Streets in the BBC
by kenneth.chu＠uclh.org 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

Hello everyone, hope you're having fun. For some reason it feels like Autumn even though spring has just begun. And april rain, falling on my brain, the one that melted due to work strain. Haven't written to you lot for a while, workload running up to a pile. It is vile. Right, enough of talking like the streets. The word on the street is linking is the new shit. Just really to mention here (in case none of you check the B&S website) that there's a fairly good interview with Stuart Murdoch with the BBC. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/alt/scotland/specials/electric_honey/index.shtml ?section=belle In which he talks about how he formed the band and stuff and recording Tigermilk with electric honey, and having a LATE NIGHT ROMP with Stuart David in a dirty hotel in France! What's more, at one point of it Sturan said "Shit"! \m/ rawk \m/. My favourite bit of it are the two lines right at the end, but unfortunately according to the B&S website Sturan isn't responsible for those two lines. -- In other news, Easter Holidays was so great, I spent 4 days pretty much sleeping and playing darts, in which we successfully defeated the wrath of Darth Moore (whose darts to my surprise were not double ended). http://www.darts.com wow you can buy professional Dart Bags! -- And last Thursday I went to "How does <CENSORED> feel to <CENSORED> loved", which is becoming one of my favourite clubs in London. If only because I always look such a Charming fella in it... as shown in http://www.howdoesitfeel.f9.co.uk/jan3.html I was going to write more, but I'd only bore. People all comatose on the floor. etc. Ken P.S.: Is £2.50 a good price for The Streets' album on e-bay? ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted in it are confidential and intended solely for the person or entity to whom they are addressed.

Sinister: i know where the summer goes, but where is spring?
by Judith Rosemary 20 Apr '03

20 Apr '03

We seem to have skipped spring where I am. It's summer now, I think. Well, it feels that way. When it's really warm out I'm always reminded (or thinking) of "I Know Where The Summer Goes". That's fine and well with me, but I've not always got my B&S to listen to and when I get in that mood I can get quite itchy to listen to them. That makes for a rather unpleasant time for all around. Happy Easter and all that rot (being candy!). Happy Passover to the Jewish. I woke this morning with a nice basket of candy things waiting for me on the kitchen table in a basket shaped like an egg. I helped myself to the treats and went back to bed. There's nothing quite like chocolate in the mornings! I hope all of your Easters are going well. Seeing as I've really nothing more to tell or share with you, I'll leave you to it. Have a nice Easter.
