Sinister: Real erudition triumphs readily over sill emo children
by Paul Field 18 Sep '02

18 Sep '02

Hullo sinister, I was told that in the absence of presence of somebody (boss?) today I should occupy my time productively by mailing you lot, so here I am, doing as I am told for fear that otherwise I shall be struck down with the plague. The bad news is that I am writing this in the morning so there's a good chance it'll make no sense whatsoever. Mister C (Mark, not Vitamin) has made a winning move of Tigermilking which does deserve all of you London and southern England types to make every effort to get there. Simply because it's gonna be bloody cool. And you might even get a free flying saucer. He also came up with the idea of the last London picnic of the year, which I think is a fantastic idea. I think it should be just about fine so long as no Phil Collins fans turn up - jacket definitely required (HOHOHO!). I would of course love to offer to be picnic mummy but sadly I was born with the affliction of not having the ability to organise a barbecue in hell. There is somebody on this list though who was supposed to be last picnic mummy but had to back out at late notice (through no fault of their own I add) who has been known to organise barbecues in canada *water*, bermond*sea*. Which is pretty damn impressive and should make organising a picnic on a hill a complete cinch. Not that I am trying to push anybody. I just think somebody who lives in London and isn't me should do it. Maybe Bapps! He even has a picnic name. I personally also have a plan for the weekend after! Its not totally comfirmed as yet, but its 99% sure that I will be touring the pubs of Glasgow for a few days, arriving late evening Thursday 10th Oct, and leaving sometime the following Monday. I believe there's to be a winchester club too. I'd like to think it's in my honour, but given that this is the first most of you know of these plans I somehow doubt that. But anyway, I hope you Glasgow kids will all be around to show me a good time. Ahem. You know what I mean, filthy sods. I wish that I had a crush, other than velvet, who I saw every morning on my way to work. It never happens in London though. I guess it's the same in all cities of such size. You just don't see the same people on a daily basis. You don't catch the such and such a tube, you just turn up and jump on the first one. Or rather, as is often the case, squeeze your way through the mass of sweaty bodies onto the first one. I suppose it could work if your crush wasn't actually a person but a building or a lamppost or something, but that would be a bit weird. Has anybody heard of a fantastic new singer-songwriter called Gareth Gates? He does a superb cover of Paul Hardcastles electro masterpiece "nineteen" (such heartfelt lyrics). i have the afternoon off work to go and see him. Well, it does beat sitting in front of a computer I suppose. Why doesn't sublime mean beneath limes? Ok, time to go to the gee gees. I hope he doesn't resign like D has. http://www.theonion.com/onion3218/gaymuppet.html Bye! Foxy Field __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: B&S on the weakest link
by snowy . 17 Sep '02

17 Sep '02

Skiving off work has it's advantages. Not having to do any work being the main one. And I got to watch Ready, Steady, Cook and the weakest link. And there was a B&S question on the weakest link. "What is the catalogue number of the Dog on wheels 7" single?". Not really. It was (something like) "the link between a series about a boy and his dog and a Scottish band, Belle and....?". The woman frowned, shrugged and said "Arthur". Tsk. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Love Is...
by idleberry 17 Sep '02

17 Sep '02

In the mornings, when I am dressed for work, and have a bowl of cereal in my hands, my soaking wet hair tied in a turban of a towel, I go to draw the curtains in the livingroom. And more often than not, I see Mick C. He sits in the street, watching the house. And as soon as he spots a twitch of the curtains, Mick runs over, and starts tapping at the window. Sometimes, I just watch him, and don't do anything, I just eat. Sometimes, I hide from his view. Sometimes though, he comes into the house in the morning. He heads straight to the kitchen, for a bite to eat. Then he follows me around, to the bathroom, while I brush my teeth, or sits, perched on the end of my bed, and watches me in the mirror while I dry my hair. Sometimes he watches me put on my make up, and he'll pick up my blusher brush and play with it for a bit. He waits for me after work too. He knows what time I get home, and hes there, standing in the street waiting for me. He knows what tme I usually get home, and if I am late, he gives me a really dirty look. Hes a bit of an odd one, Mick. We have this strange relationship. Sometimes we ignore each other totally. Othertimes, we lie close together, cuddling, and I might purr a bit in his ear. He likes to play with my nail files too. He'll scratch his nails along it - I think he likes the feel. When I finish my driving lessons, he waits for me, pacing impatiently up and down outside the car, glaring in the window, while I pay the instructor. I have to say, I did catch him in my brothers bedroom one day, sniffing his underwear. He won't appreciate me telling you that of course. I left him to it. He had a bushy eyebrow the other night. I threatened to pluck it. It made him look like Norman Lammont. **************** Theres another in my life too. Only, we've never actually met. Its an unrequited crush, on my part. All through the summer, when I take the train to work, it passes by these flats. And I've seen this gorgeous italian type by one of these flats, just outside, every morning. The italian must be over 40 years old, I think, and quite sexy, in an unconventional way. I often find myself gazing at him, fantasising about him. What it would be like to go out with him. What outfit I would wear. Out of my league, of course, but it doesn't stop a girl from imagining. Me and him, together, listening to Simon and Garfunkel maybe, on sunny afternoons, going to the beach. So I'm inexperienced, and maybe, hes had more women than I've had hot dinners. But I can't help but wish he was mine. Theres a song, which reminds me of him, and when I see him, the lyrics to that song get stuck in my head. The song irritated me so much so, that I actually ended up having to buy the record, and play the song over and over, until I was sick fed up of it, and could put it to rest. He wasn't there this morning. I wonder if hes got someone new in his life.

Sinister: haikus revealed // week thirtysix // two thousand and two
by ee fumblings 17 Sep '02

17 Sep '02

I drank a quarter bottle of vodka and went back to being drunk. Actually, come to think of it, everyone's really mean here too. I think that's what they said. I haven't sobered up in days. That's a lie. It's finished now, and in my fridge in one of those Ribena Fridge jugs. Nathan R: you're right. But you can say "australya". Three syllables? hmm Nice seeing you. Love, Mike x *Unless you're some sort of crazy person. I've never seen a show there so hopefully that will be a good time. Sinister wedding. There you go. I'll be off then. Right.

Sinister: athlete's foot.
by Ruth Allan 17 Sep '02

17 Sep '02

hey sinister. why is no one posting today? is it the weather? this office is so grey/ Moira my left-hand-lady asked for the overheads to be turned out cos they make her anxious. I personally like anxious but she is a big cheese and I am not, so I am living in a darn den as bendy cone desk lights remind me of a horrible dream I had as a kid where the light took on a life of its own. It seems Manchester is starting to grown again somehow. Various people are arriving and leaving and the town is about to swell with students. I remmeber the first time I noticed it, when I'd stopped migrating forward and back with the terms and seasons and noticed the gaps inbetween. they're not bad or better they're just different. things change in subtle ways I hope. last week I was without a job in sweden looking for spiders on a balcony and only sitting down after a proper check, such classic holiday behaviour, and this week dammit I'm sleeping with the bastards in my bedroom, come and get me I say. Nibble my ears in my sleep see if I care. My house is lovely except for the spiders. Is it cruel to keep one under a blender for three days until your house mate comes home? My fear is that the spider mate will come home first but I think I'm just being paranoid. Some people love autumn. thank you for making me see the nicer sides to it. I like it a bit but can't ever get excited about putting my shoes back on. April to october feet should be exposed. ladies in this fashion avoid athletes foot. James Yorkson is fantastic. but really sad, and a secret sinister who is reading this likes him a lot too which makes me happy. ruthxx _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: if you've neglected sinister...
by shanny jean 17 Sep '02

17 Sep '02

i woke up one hour and seven minutes late this morning because my lovely boyfriend turned the alarm off and went back to sleep. he woke up in time to not be late for anything; i woke up in the middle of crummy english. a mixed blessing. not long following, i sat down and rediscovered the sinister folder in my e-mail account... long neglected. i haven't posted since may-june. it is now september (and Late september at that!). oh sadness. this is what has happened since: 1. i turned in my apron for a microphone. i don't wait tables now, but work at the radio station. apparently, i do this for free. 2. returned to school. while buying books, a worker girl had on a belle and sebastian t-shirt. i said, "i like your shirt." she said, "thank you." i said, "i have it. ...On." low and behold, we were wearing the same t-shirt, which is strange in normal, illinois, where people listen to a lot of rap. 3. i received an e-mail from a former teacher who is probably around the age of Gandalf. he asked me, "Are you ever online?" 4. i decided i might be an english teacher. i think i was caught by the glamour of teaching beowulf to unthankful 16-year olds... i mean, gosh. 5. i discovered ken chu's colander's blog page. incentive to read all the missed messages of the summer. i am sorry, everyone, for being a bad sinistress. i solemnly swear i will keep up better. for now, though, i best do my math homework. lovie, shanny jean _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Wandering around everywhere
by ArtsyDeco＠aol.com 15 Sep '02

15 Sep '02

Hello, It's been awhile, I know. There are probably lots of new people here who don't know I am. Those who do probably remember me as being one half of the romantic Peter and Kara charade. That's ended. Almost two months ago now. I've had to admit to myself that I miss sinister, though I can never look at it the same way again. Anyway, I'll give you a quick overview. I've cut off nearly all my hair. I've been obsessed with the Pixies. I've adopted two plants, a mimosa named Margaret Yang and a Capsicum Annuum named Mordechai. I saw a shrink over the summer and I'm much better now. I bought a new bra yesterday and I like it very much. I'm shaking very badly from the caffeine in the cola I keep drinking and I'm having a very good time here. So now I have a few requests, if you don't mind. I believe there are those who crochet on this list, is there anyway one of you could show me how? I bought a book, but the diagrams aren't very good and I can't get beyond the double chain stich. Would anyone be willing to send me a pack of sweet aftons in return for, oh something that's not available over there or some origami or something? I really have missed you. So tell me, how are you doing?

Sinister: a dispatch from the north
by clairk＠carleton.edu 15 Sep '02

15 Sep '02

hello sinister, It's been a while since I've written, owing to my lack of internet connection for more than like twenty minutes a day over this past summer. There wasn't terribly much to report, since I mostly worked in an office and did a lot of paperwork, and at night mostly played computer games and ate food I tried to cook before I went to bed at a reasonable hour to do it all over again the next day. I went to Minneapolis a couple of times, though, which is always a thrilling excursion for the destitute Minnesota college student. While there I made no trips to record stores of any sort, which was a disappointment, although I visited a number of Asian food stores and bought curry. There was much consumption of curry this summer in our house, which was good. Now I'm back in school again. There's a new flock of freshmen on the floor I live on; they seem well enough although my attempts to find the excellent ones by playing Lazy Line Painter Jane consistently have resulted in little success, as I dunno if anyone around so far are Belle and Sebastian fans. I did like when one of them asked me based on my one turntable and the mixer I use to hook it up to my stereo if I was a DJ. It pleased me, I guess, but also made me a little sad that I haven't ever gotten around to doing anything like that outside of the radio. I've been wondering over the past while, seeing other people on the list have picnics and such, if I'm the only listee from Minnesota. I guess I'm not _from_ Minnesota but I certainly have been spending most of my time here, and if not there's always December when I'm in Illinois again. Just a passing thought. I seem to have run out of things to say. Tomorrow I will be getting hopefully my tickets to see Beck and the Flaming Lips at the lovely Orpheum Theatre; I've never seen a show there so hopefully that will be a good time. Until next time... kevin +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: i don't want to look like an imaginary dork
by rrrrobyn 15 Sep '02

15 Sep '02

ah, sinister, whoa, check out that comma, its invitating swish, suggestive of oh-i'm-sure great things to come. mm, but yeah, it's possible too that it signals a massive list of more of the same, one big sentence, thesaurus-like in its running on, its over-explanation of what it is exactly that i'm trying to say if only i knew the word for it, dammit. oh, fuckit, i'll go back to the exclamation mark. i'm in montreal! it's faboolous! i've been going through the expected gamut of emotions for the past few weeks and wasn't about to subject the list to that. but now i've been to class, explored the city a bit, met some people, picked up all my stuff from the crazy industrial-area shipping company, and am almost but not quite at all settled in. hurrah! indeed! holy crazy industrial-area shipping company, by the way: so, i shipped my stuff from vancouver to montreal through a shipping company for cheap (b/c i gots the co-nections, yo), wherein one puts all their stuff (which is usually, like, books or engine parts or shampoo or things that are not the contents of robyn's apartment) on pallates/skids and wraps it all in twenty layers of cello-wrap and then puts it on a truck across the country so that when the stuff arrives at its destination it all smells like deisel and cardboard and maybe even a little like roadside diners. one also has to rent a truck to go pick it up. but usually one has some kind of trucking company do that for one b/c one is a company oneself and not robyn who has to rent a 14-ft cube truck and get her friends to help her. so i get to the depot and i'm, like, um, i have three skids to pick up. and they're, like, oooh, three, oooh. but they speak mostly french so it's more like, ooeeoo, trois, ooeeoo. but they were very nice about it really and let me walk around the gigantic warehouse searching out my three skids full of *all my worldly possessions*. i found them easily enough (ah, yes, the the futon frame sticking out of the cello-wrap gave it away.) but the cool thing was that a guy with a handlebar mustache and a jolly chuckle forklifted the skids directly into the truck! no unpacking! only expert forklifting! it made me really want one of those suits that ripley uses at the end of aliens. you know the one. with the forklift arms. (not to mention the welding torch.) then moving would be better. but then everyone would ask me to help them out. i'd be like the friend with the truck, except way more impressive and coooool. so now i have a desk to sit at and a comfortable bed to sleep in. of course, i put the nuts and bolts for my bed frame in the *stupidest spot imaginable though at the time i'm sure it made sense*. they literally were in the very last place i looked, i mean, i thought, "agh, i guess they're gone, that's it, i'm going to home depot in the morning to buy appropriately sized nuts and bolts. hm, oh, look, my big bag of shoes." where else but in my big bag of shoes?! (no, not the small bag of shoes. nor the laundry hamper full of shoes.) as if that would be the first place i'd look, as if somehow my shoes and my bed frame are connected. as if i would be rushing to unpack all my shoes before anything else. no, really, but i obviously had this thought while in a state of packing mania - "i will be living with only three pairs of shoes for two weeks, therefore the first thing i will need when i get my stuff will be a refreshing pair of shoes." holy. crap. i won't get into the wonders of school yet b/c it has barely started. it will be good though. i can tell. hundreds of pages of reading each week, mind you... yes, anyway, *so*, i got to see LE TIGRE again! and it was greatness, of course. the crowd was weirdly sedate, dancing-wise. i say, if the band is dancing, you dance. and if the band is playing 'deceptacon', you dance and hop up and down like a bluddy maniac. do it! do it now! regardless, it was a great show that inspired me to be creative and gutsy and such, and also made me happy to be a girl. whoo! i could go on about things like the metro, my metrocard, the coolness of the metro stations all deep underground but sometimes with windows waaaay up high so you can make *damn well sure* that you are deep underground, how underground transit makes so much sense and is so fast and weirdly comforting, even though people off themselves at least once a week in front of the hurtling trains, causing delays of approximately 20-30 minutes, mostly during rush hour. but yeah, the metro takes you where you want to go. other excited, less mundane news: blonde redhead is coming! they are good live. also sept 26-29 there is something called popmontreal going on, which is all indiepop goodness that causes me to do dances of joy and popitude. the almost instantaneous return of mundane: i bought a kickass screwdriver the other day. i wanna say that it's torque even though i know torque isn't really an adjective, but, man, torque is the new awesome, but with muscle power. dude, i totally put a deadbolt on my door all by myself and it is so *torque!*. and also you could lament as such: "ah, if only everything could be so very very torque..." that's sort of how i've been feeling today. wanting torqueness, but ending up with dorkness. (ooh, sorry, that's terrible. haha.) but hey, it's warranted: i had to restore my computer to its original state, reinstall windows, and *all that time-consuming crap*. it sucked. it made me yell "fucksticks!" more than once. but it's over now. and i still have the shiny new high-speed connection to brighten my mood. and curry, i've got curry too. the way it sometimes is, robyn ===== I was reading the dictionary. I thought it was a poem about everything. ~Steven Wright ~~~ Robyn Fadden rfadden(a)yahoo.com Montreal, QC __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
