Mad TV did this hilarious parody of the show, in true to form claymation,
where they took the "thinly-veiled" religious themes to new heights. Davy
would be waiting for the bus when Goliath would tell him to go kill two lovers
in a jeep on the corner, because what they were doing was a sin. Which he of
course did.

It's Pleasantness Police time. Gentle reminder to Sinisterons the world
over to keep the list readable and my embarrassingly large amount of time
running this list well spent please.
1) It's a Belle and Sebastian and "things that happen to Belle and
Sebastian fans" list. It's not a B&S news list (ha) as I'd only need
a ZX81 to run that - it's about YOU. But it's also not a general indie
(dread word) list. Much better to make us all cry and laugh, but ask your
friends if you are a funny person first to see if you are qualified to do
a stand-up.
2) Don't slag off each other obviously enough for me to think "do I want
to hear this?". It gets a bit boring.
3) Don't quote a huge message and then say "Yeah". Take some time to
use your editor so 470 odd people don't have punish their keyboards.
4) Equally don't mail back 30 separate responses to 30 mails on the list.
Put them together.
5) Don't use the list for private mail or mail to about 5 people.
6) The next 10 people to send subscribe/unsubscribe requests to the list
get a night out with my Mad Dad - you have been warned - read the WWW
pages below please and find out how to use the list.
7) Think just before you post about the 470 people the other end.
Remember, the drill is: compose your message... hover your finger over
the send key for 10 seconds... think whether we all want to hear and
whether Cliff Richard would approve... send.
The End

>>1) Are there any other Southern California fans out there? and 2) If
you are from SoCal, do you know of anyplace that carries "Dog On
Wheels"?
Andy - There are a few B&S fans in LA. I turned one of my neighbors
onto them after he heard them through my walls. I'm the only one of my
friends that I know who are on the list. I haven't found any of the singles
here yet, I've ordered them through the Web site.

Hello All,
I am will make my very first trip to Europe this May and I was
wondering if people could give me their opinion on some CDs I plan to
purchase in London.
1) Adventures in Stereo: Which albums are good?
2) Octopus
3) Dodgy, Free Peace Sweet
4) Ed Ball
5) Cecil
Also I wanted to know if the list was still going to have a picnic.
The last thing I remember reading is a picnic that is scheduled in early
May. I arrive in London on May 5 and I am there until May 7. Then off to
France.

I know how dry cleaning is done,
it's like this:
They put the clothes in one of those metallic washing machines, you know
the kind that you have to pay extra money to use, and fill it with
magical chemicals, these "special cleaning agents" and wash. So "dry"
cleaning is a bit of a misnomer you see!! And I know this to be true
because I saw it in an investigative report on Dateline NBC and they
wouldn't have it on there if it wasn't true.
Unless it is whatever cleaners I happen to be patronising at any given
time, whose method seems more along the lines of "take Tara's dirty
stuff that needs cleaning, hang it in the back of the store for 2 days
then run an iron over the thing and give it back to her for $5, count
our money and laugh our heads off when she leaves"... tho I have to
commend the place I went to recently, they got a nasty piece of gum out
of my french Posh Spice versace knockoff slipdress which I bought in
England!:::huge sigh of relief:::
Over the weekend i did my good deed and converted YET ANOTHER person to
the tribe of B&S worshippers. yay me!!!! That brings my *grand total*
of converts to a magnificent....wait for it...TWO! and with converts 3
and 4 almost certainly in the bag, Belle and Sebastian fever is sweeping
the Bay faster than El Nino.... (I was crying in public the other day
after a bad time at Carnaval and this boy walked up to me and tried to
comfort, I said, "no it's allright, only PMS", and he said, "yeah you're
right El Nino is really something!" huh???)
MADONNA is calling her new look Veronica Electronica. Which is sure to
be a nail color by Hard Candy in a matter of days.
And hahaha that's really funny, that news about nothing released until
July... now if you would please tell us really... isn't it lovely tho,
how active this list remains despite the lack of new releases?? I think
so.
tonight Matthew, I will be Punky Brewster, because I dyed my hair black
and people might stop saying I look like Mariah!!!!

What!? I LOVED Davy and Goliath!!! My sister and I would wake up at 5 am
on Sunday mornings so we could watch it together. It was this
thinly-veiled religious show for children, in which Goliath the dog was
the voice of Morality. (I am imitating Goliath's voice as I write this and
I wish you all could hear it b/c it was probably the funniest part of the
show! Ha, I can still hum the theme tune too!) BTW, I think it was one of
the early claymation shows, not puppets.
So Davy would do all these bad things like taking another child's crayon
or not sharing his toys with his sister (Sally?) and Goliath would
reprimand him and explain why he ought to do the right thing. Ok, so it
sounds (and was) hokey but when you're 5 years old and have a stuffed dog
that looks JUST like Goliath, you find this sort of thing quite
stimulating. The baby photo that I am going to send to HoneyPaul (if I can
get my computer to recognize my scanner) is of me clutching my Goliath
dog, which I later lost on a bus (A BUS, hey look, there's a B&S
connection for you!!) and was never quite the same.

Hey all,
Just a quick mail to say *oh my god* and *wahey* and lots of other
very excited things in response to listening to Tigermilk for the first
time. Can't really pick out any highlights as yet, but I'm sure I will
do soon. Also hearing 'Modern Rock Song' for the first time (on the
Radcliffe session)-what a whopper, eh?
I just have one question, mainly directed at Andy Dean (who sent me the
tape), but any one can answer the question who knows what I'm talking
about-what are the names of the three demo tracks that are also on the
tape. The first one is "Pocketbook Angel"-right?, but I can't recognise
the titles of any of the others from any references on the list. If any
one knows the answer, I'd be much obliged.
Oh, and bobbins to that Warwick guy,
Much hugs,
GIDEONxxx

Oh really?
