Sinister: Uri! Don't bend me!!!!!!
by Kenneth P Y Chu 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Hello sinister, Some people would say that 5 glorious years of sinister has made for a huge generation gap to have developed on the list. Namely between the "old Guards" and the "Young Blood". Generation gaps are funny things, like how it can make different words and phrases to end up having the same meanings, for example how "Guards" can mean the same as "And Passed Its" and "Blood" can mean the same as "Whippersnappers" .. anyway, you'd think that people become older and wiser as they age, but they don't! Let's take two case studies. ***************************** Case Study 1: STEVIE TROUSERS said that the ***5th Aniversary Sinister Picnic*** Happens on SUNDAY, which is CORRECT and then confused everyone by talking about how places are busy on SATURDAY. SILLY MAN! Just to confirm what the wise young Sam Walton said, the picnic is indeed happening on Sunday! SO DON'T TURN UP ON SATURDAY, unless you want to practice climbing up Primrose Hill to prepare for the big day. I guess it can be embarassing to be stuck at the bottom of the hill on Sunday due to lack of Hill Climbing practice! ***************************** Case Study 2: CARSMILE STEVE is a well respected, married man, you'd think that such a sagacious man would be behaving himself and be acting always within the boundaries of the law. But NO! In fact he was a bad bad bad man and is now in court! Look what I've found on the Metro (london newspaper) today... http://uk.geocities.com/ken_the_juggler/carsmile.html Tut Tut. ***************************** Which brings us back to doh! or the question set by Nathan Reader... >>it would be interesting to find out what the ages of vary from of everyone >>on the sinister list. If you... think you are a contender for the oldest >>(don't be ashamed), please tell us all, or just me.<< The answer is a good lurker friend of mine AuntSadie! auntsadie(a)missprint.org (i believe), she is 82, you know! She never posts but do write her, she also comes to #sinister chat very often! So come visit her by going to chat! See some of you on SUNDAY! And also you get to see my DJing DEBUT! oh my. You can all embarass me when I mess up, or the girls can all fall in love with my exquisite music choice mmmmm.

Sinister: Stuart M's in the Record!
by ~ boywiththearabstrap 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Congratulations to Mr Murdoch, who managed to make the showbiz gossip column of the Daily Record a few days ago. He was spotted "quirkily suited"(marvellous!) in Princes St, Edinburgh, by some sharp eyed festival goer. Ah! The lifestyles of the luckily tailored...... I found it quite interesting that someone should phone this story in to a national. Intruiging(?) also that they should print it. I wonder if the caller made any money? On the off-chance, I'm off into the West End to try and make some jack-dash. SJM Also, the Halt Bar. Theres a good gig on Saturday night. _________________________________________________________________ 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: Hey, where have you been? it's so good to see you again...
by elenita 99 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Hello, I am back. Just in time for the 5th birthday of Sinister, it seems. I don't know how was the weather this summer in your respective countries, but here in Paris it has been crap. Like cold, wet and windy, generally speaking. So most of the time, no barbecues, no picnics, no sunbathing in the park and all these things you do in summertime. Which is a bit tough when you have no holidays and you are stuck in the office. I moved out from London about 9 months ago now, and it seems like years. Paris is OK, I suppose, I am getting used to it again. Well to some of it: the pretty sights, the many bars and clubs, the good cinemas, finding my favorite cheese at the supermarket, my lovely flat. What I am not getting used to, I think, is being in my own country again. People are so French over here (can't blame them really, it's genetic, and so am I). After almost 3 years of living abroad, it feels like no fun anymore being home. Nothing is different, nothing is surprising, nothing is annoying, nothing is terribly exciting or scary or weird. I suppose that, more than not liking smelly Paris, is being away that I miss. Talking of foreign countries, I am going away soon, on holidays for a week in Italy. And I am flying out on Friday 13th. Scary. Planes are scary already, flying on a Friday 13th is scarier. I will be wearing red knickers on Red Knickers Day, of course. And also this new pair of sexy red shoes that I bought a few weeks ago, to add to my collection. Have fun this weekend, with picnics, meetings and stuff and all. And don't forget your knickers, any visual proof will be of course of interest (at least to me) Byebye now, Elena I didn't actually mean to moan, but I realise it might sound like it. For a comeback post, I am being a bit rubbish. Please forgive me, or not. _________________________________________________________________ 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.

Re: Sinister: five candles
by ian 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

(there's some relevant content at the bottom of this. not much, though. xxx ian) i never would have looked inside, if nobody had mentioned it. some doors are best kept closed, especially those with banging noises behind them. i was worried it might be a giant rat, or a party of escaped prisoners, who, having tunnelled all the way from winson green, had ended up in my airing cupboard. like last time. last time was very painful. they stayed for a while, tied up the boyf, ate my biscuits, refused to shag me, and nicked my jose feliciano cd. i can live with the rejection and the danger, but i really miss hearing 'don't let the sun catch you crying'. anyway. i wouldn't have looked inside, had nobody mentioned it. but somebody did: she said *PPS. Welcome Carl! I believe there is some shady sinisterine called Ian *resident in Brum, but you don't want to get involved with his particular *brand of sin and depravity, trust me. He kept a NUN in his CLOSET you *know. archel fucking playforth...with her rumour mill churning all day and night. its no good, dear. you can wash the dirty linen of others in public, but it won't hide those nasty crotchless knickers you've got on your OWN LINE! but, in the very depths of my mind, underneath the baby-oil soaked piles of porn, the rusty coat-hangers and the piles of rotting vegetation, there WAS a memory of a nun. i wondered... she appeared to be restrained, and gagged. and to have her foot caught in some sort of man-trap. when i tried to untie her, she attacked me. so i re-did the knots, and put her other foot in the man-trap. funny, these thumbscrews look familiar too. anyway, she ranted for a while, and screamed that she was going to kill me, and that i had no right to do what i had done, and that god would punish me. the usual stuff people say. it irritated me a little, because it did rather get in the way of 'big boys take it backwards', but after i smacked her with a hello kitty casserole dish she quietened down. she's clearly quite mad though: 'i came to you for help. you attacked me, tied me up, and put me in there. two months ago.' 'but i wouldn't do that. you're a nun' 'i pointed that out to you. it didn't seem to matter. you muttered something about stilettoes and suspenders and then hit me with a 'snuffy the small brown dog' frying pan. when i woke up, i was in there'. she SAYS she's lived on insects, and drops of water from the boiler. i must get that leak fixed. anyway, i felt a bit bad. whatever has happened clearly isn't my fault, but i hate to see a fellow human being in distress. she seemed to want somewhere to stay, so i told her she could sleep in my shed, and could use my computer to surf the net for porn if she wanted to. i've kept her foot in the man trap, though. it doesn't pay to be too trusting. its a dangerous, dangerous world out there, my friends. keep the faith. keep an eye out. keep smiling through, just like you always do. and remember, ne'er cast a clout before may is out. i love you xx ian oh, and hi carl. welcome to the list. we had a birmingham picnic a while back. we'll have another one again soon, hopefully. are the rest of you midlanders up for it? mail me if you are, and let me know. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: sometimes I wonder, just for a while
by AMEBIX13＠aol.com 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Well hello there darling sinister!!! Wow, Five years eh?? I've only been on for one, but it's been splendid I must say...I want to start this post by thanking Honey for creating this lovely, lovely list. I've received practical information about one of my favorite bands, been amused at the office, been inspired, been shown that other people feel the way I do, and last, but certainly not least, met some of the most amazing people who I have ever known, directly because of this list...so thank you all. On the subject of bitterness: So yes, I have just gotten to the end of one of the most bitter times in my life, and I am happy to honestly feel more like myself again. I have come to realize that bitterness is truly not very well suited to me. I appologise if any of my posts or emails have been tainted by that. This isn't to say that I'm terribly happy all the time these days, I mean, I'm still human afterall, it's just more that I deal with it a bit differently, if that makes any sense whatsover...hehehe. I think that i'm just a bit more accepting of things, and life in general, and personally I think it's better for me. I've regained some of my innocence, and i'm glad to have it back. Well, I suppose I'm really just a hopeless romantic when it comes down to it. I see the beauty that I've been missing in the everyday lately, and I don't want to let go of it again. On the subject of Belle and Sebastian: Yes, I know I'm way behind, but I just picked up "I'm waking up to us" the other day, and it's utterly brilliant! All three songs on it are among my favorites, and just bring out emotions in me that most music can't even get near....that's why I love B&S so much...they make me feel something, they don't always make me feel the same thing, even the same song can make me feel a multitude of different emotions, based on the specifics of the situation, but well, they always make me feel something, and that it truly special. Thanks guys! On the subject of autobiographical semi-fiction: There is a young boy named Graham, well, not all that young I suppose, but he is certainly a boy. He is a bit of a contradiction really, both young and old, innocent yet has lived through so many painful things, clever but uses poor judgement, has hope it seems only to lose it again. He does a great deal of things which many could see as being adult...he works in an office every day, he lives on his own, pays his own bills, drinks too much, wears ties and reads lots of books, smokes too many cigarettes, makes his own tea on sunday mornings, cooks his own dinners to eat alone on the floor beside his bed. Yet he still cries sometimes because he gets scared and lonely in the dark of his tiny cold bedroom. He still day dreams every day when in his office, he make believes of foriegn lands, of wandering alone through fields and hills, and sometimes wandering in these places with someone else. He day dreams of what it would be like to have someone love him...he day dreams of what it! would be like to cook breakfast for someone else...and have company at meals. He dreams of a girl, but not the typical sort of girl that boys dream of....she doesn't exist in usual places, and poor Graham doesn't even know where to begin searching, and he fears it will be the death of him yet. Many fellows may dream of glamour, of someone who everyone else likes, of someone well known, and notable...he is diefferent though. She would be quiet, a bit plain, a librarian type if you will...the sort of girl who enjoys the things he does, yet often fades into the backround of any given scene...she certainly wouldn't fade into the backround of his life though. He would love her, and she would love him, a perfect match, backround chracters living out an utterly spectaluar romantic dream behind the backs of all the self absorbed socialites. It would be like their own little secret. They could be a society in of themselves. The sunday mornings they shared reading books in bed wearing ! nothing but smiles of contentment, and smoking cigarettes. Late ni ght conversations about actual feelings, and about the future, and about maybe getting a kitten together. The little moments they would share out of the sight of everyone else. Most people wouldn't even know thier names, or even that they existed...and well, that is just how they would want it. She wouldn't long for someone more glamorous, someone with a better haircut, or who had more friends...just as he wouldn't long for the girl whom everyone lusts after....he's already had her, and a life with such a girl would be more the subject of nightmares than daydreams. This is mostly what he dreams of....and even though the dreams haven't yet come true, they still make him smile, and chase away the tears on those terrifying nights. They embrace him, and sing him softly to sleep, putting the faint hope into his innocent mind that tomorrow these matters will all be sorted On the subject of Ink Polaroids: So yes, I have managed to pull a few out of my basement, and the immense pile of papers, books, and photos that resides next to my bed. **ink polaroid #1** It is October 2001...a chilly evening, or was it early morning...I'm sitting on Elise's couch smoking a cigarette with her, and trying desperately to warm up underneath of the blanket, but to no avail. I'm shivering. The cigarette is held up to my mouth with a shakey hand, and the only light in the room is coming from either the moon, or our cigarettes. We are cuddled close to eachother, and despite being cold, life seems good. **Ink Polaroid # 2** It's earlier that day, a thursday, and it's a bit warmer outside than I would expect for an october day in wisconisn. Elise and I are sitting on a stone wall, with sheer rock faces around up, and a waterfall benind us, at the end of a path through the forest. There are beautiful hues of orange and red on all the trees around us. We had just finished what was kind of a long walk, so we both look a little bit flushed and rosy cheeked, I have a touch of sweat on my nose, and a smile on my face. I'm wearing black cuffed jeans, and a Smith's t-shirt. She has on torn blue jeans, and a B&S shirt (the ampersand one) I desperately try to get the nerve to say something that I really need to tell her, but I'm too shy at that particular moment, and instead just enjoy the scenery. There should be some more to come, I'll have to search the house again this evening when I return home from work...ink polaroids are great fun afterall! On the subject of having to get back to work before my boss gets irate with me: Well, there isn't too much to say about this, except that I love you all, bye bye for a bit! Love and Pink Flamingos, Seanie Graham P.S. - Gillian...are you still around...I haven't heard from you?? +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Some slightly philosophical dribble with a twist of nausiating happiness.
by Nathan Reader 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Hi there all you Sinisters, It's a Thursday night here (in Australia) and I was just in 'reflection mode' and thought I'd share my thoughts. I think it's because I'm so young, but I can't believe how different I am now in comparison with the 'me' I used to be. Being only 17, I guess I'm at the age where I haven't really developed who I am yet, and so I'm constantly and unknowingly shaping 'me', but maybe everyone is always changing, I don't know. It's quite hard to put yourself in a situation in life where you can say that you are completely satisfied, but I think I'm pretty close right now, I mean at this very instant, 8:33 pm. I am sitting on the floor of the study on this laptop, eating mango flavoured dessert tofu (don't judge it by the name, it's quite delicious) and writing to a bunch of people, none of whom I have ever met in my entire life, and probably will never meet. To top it all off, I have recently been graced with the pleasure of being involved in a great relationship with a very special girl (this is only recent, thanks for your suggestions for my last post Ian, Sam and Lucy of sinister). One last thing, as I said before I'm 17 and it's pretty amazing that a group of musicians (B&S) can unintentionally bring together so many people, young and old. Out of interest, it would be interesting to find out what the ages of vary from of everyone on the sinister list. If you are younger than 17 (B'day 20/07/85) or think you are a contender for the oldest (don't be ashamed), please tell us all, or just me. Ruperts tip for the weekend: Don't get hung up about little things, you could get hit by a bus tommorrow. Charming yeah? Toodles.

Sinister: You're just a baby baby girl / Grandstand cover. RE: Haldern
by paul hardman 22 Aug '02

22 Aug '02

Alright, I know it's very late but i saw the other late post about Haldern and what ya gonna do? Have to disagree with the other chap, thought they were the best band at Haldern but..... and this is where my whole argument falls down, that was the first time i'd seen them. Missed them in Rotterdam (no excuses as it's Warrington / Amsterdam boy) and Paris....BAH! Cooper temple clause were very good, one huge hell of a noise. Saw the blow up Giraffe, didn't realise there was another large English contingent there....another BAH! Thumbs up to the Sinisterette Kerstin though who came through with some aplomb although you could have quite easily totalled the lot of us driving back to Emmerich. I'd reccomend the Haldern festival next year to anyone because A. No work shy's robbing everything in sight on site. B. It's very cheap. C. 10,000 people not half a million, the less people the better for me (I only hate two things - living things & objects) D. Good God, it was so civillised E. No queues at the toilets in the morning, explain that at a festival. That's my tuppence then. Anyone who's on this tape tree list is in for a treat when I get my arse into gear and send it to Colin tic, tic, tic, la musique. On a final note, thank God the season is back and life resumes it's normal course, the Two downsides being that we'll have to put up with Arsenal cheating all year again (quick start Ashley) and we'll have to watch the most boring defensive liverpoo team in history all year. Bet you the Chelsea players give 110% tomorrow because they are playing someone famous. Come on you Reds.

Dear Sinister, Um... hi... I'm sorta new here... I've been hiding. I was let out of the nursery sometime in December, I'm not sure why, I was quite happy there really... I'm afraid of people sometimes, well, actually, most times these days... even if seperated by some mysterious web of 1s and 0s that I can't ever hope to understand. Even of people who somehow I've become quite attached to. An odd bunch of "strangers" you are... you make me cry almost as often as you send me into a fit of giggles, well maybe no quite so often. Some of you make me worry though, and I hope you're doing alright now, I'm thinking of you... So many of you write so brilliantly about your exciting escapades in far away places... I wish I could do that! ... I guess I'm the stranger, really... but I love you all dearly, in a way, I just wanted you to know. *cough* sorry... all this talk of red knickers and picnics has got me feeling excited and a bit left out. Are there any listees about in western Canada inclined to have a picnic in BC? A friend and I are headed west to Vancouver for a HOLIDAY!* and I was wondering whether anyone would like to meet up? Perhaps in Kelowna? We may have made it as far west as that by Sunday, or maybe some other day in some other place? e-mail me off list perhaps... um, yes, there, I've said my bit... I'll go hide again now... oh! and seeing as I haven't any red knickers, can I wear my red fishnet stockings instead? all my love, Lisa Claire * not that it matters... but I haven't been on holiday in 3 years, so I'm very excited. Last time was a school trip to England where, for 12 days, we frantically explored London and Brighton and various other cities and towns... somehow I lost my pencil case there... it had eyes glued all over the lid and said somthing silly like, "Colour through the disaster concept you discover looking for coffee. Carpe Diem!" on it... I quite miss that pencil case... _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: apologies and ink polaroids
by kevancooke＠hotmail.com 21 Aug '02

21 Aug '02

Hello folks, Long time no post. Unless you include an accidental "reply" a few moments ago, which may or may not have hit your inbox/digest/archive by now. Apologies. In my defense, the mouse seems to have a mind of its own at the moment. All the birthday messages and ink polaroids recently have awakened me from lurking slumber, and prompted me to pluck a dusty old photo album from the attic. Here are a few ink polaroids that I found at the back. They're all from a few years ago, from before I got my camera. ** INK POLAROIDS START *** The first one was taken on Oxford Street in September 1998, on the day that I first met other listees. There I am standing to the left of HMV's doorway, the unkempt one in old man's trousers and a Looper T-Shirt. To the right of the doorway is visiting Brazilian listee Andre Vieira. We have arranged to meet outside the shop and have been standing on either side of the entrance for five minutes. I found the next one in the middle of some pictures from Bowlie. It is a little out of focus, and may have been taken by mistake, as it appears to be a picture of the floor. There are several red wine stains on the carpet, and each of them has been covered in a hillock of salt. This one was taken in the Poetry Cafe. Stevie Trousers, Tim Hopkins, Steady Mike, Pam and Sez are sitting at the table near the door. They are all are smiling for the camera, except for Tim who seems to have been leering like a mad goon at the precise moment when the picture was taken. There are quite a few people in the background that I don't recognise, apologies to any of you who are on the list. Now, this one seems very familiar. It's a picture of me stood at the bottom of Primrose Hill gazing towards the top with an Unwins bag in my hand, and a look of terror in my eye. I did find a few pictures of Sinister footie in the park and on the beach, but I'll have to hide them, as the FA would probably have to start proceedings against Mark Casarotto and Ally Cook if they saw the obvious look of intent in their eyes, as they went lunging into some "overzealous" tackles. *** INK POLAROIDS END *** Well, that's my lot.
