I've shifted the Sinister 'collection' to a yahoo album accessable at: http://uk.photos.yahoo.com/rob_brennan & open the folder 'sinister' Cheers to everyone who gave me tips on hosting services. You all deserve a big pat on the back and a cake. While the new incarnation takes shape, the old site is still available at http://robster75.tripod.com but it would be handy if the 1500 of you could organise a rota for the time being... Thanks also to everyone who's given me feedback in the short time it's been up. You're all fantastic. Robster __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hey howdy ho! My friend was sitting at the table above Russell Crowe at the baftas the other night. Wow! He’s in the bafta club, or whatever it's called. Makes games for eidos and got nominated for one, so therefore gets to go to these things. he's my favourite friend.. lol Anyway.. Tomorrow I’m going to start on a music video for b&s, involving my boyfriend running behind trees, and up paths. I’m taking my wee doggy Hamish too, we're going on the train, it's his first ever time! awwww. i went to the library today but it was closed, as a poorly laminated piece of paper smothered in running ink informed me, they only open for 3 hours on a Thursday. One of the many reasons I don’t like living in a small town. But there is light at the end of the tunnel we call Crieff.. a nice big university in Derby. Of which I’m so looking forward to. Haven't been accepted yet but the prof of film sent me an e-mail! Oh excited just thinking bout it! I'm going to get some poetry on sat, if anyone has any recommendations I’d be extremely grateful :o) ok I’m going to chat to my bafta friend some more. lol bye bye for now peeps +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: I once failed spelling ... no joke.
by Stewie-Louie Ratatouille 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

Correction: I did not get my "on coy" of Legal man, but rather my "own copy." I can't believe they are going to let me get a Ph.D. In case it pained anyone to get two e-mails from me in one day, here is a quote to make you smile again: "I've heard that drink is the curse of the working class, but it seems to me that work is the curse of the drinking class." Yes, pint lifters of the world, unite and take over.(!) Cheers Stewart [Amour Fou is always illegal, whether it's disguised as a marriage or a boyscout troop--always drunk, whether on the wine of its own secretions or the smoke of its own polymorphous virtues. It is not the derangement of the senses but rather their apotheosis--not the result of freedom but rather its precondition. - Hakim Bey] _________________________________________________________________ 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: Getting married in a rush, to save myself from being deported
by sgazzetti 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

...with any sort of luck, anyway. Hello again to you wonderful people. I have turned into the worst sort of lurker, and havent posted in a year, but lately many things many people have written have moved me, especially what Kirsten Kenyon said about milk and vodka and baker bakers scent of fresh bread and reflections on corpses and fear. Jenowls remarks about her crushing school, which made me both laugh and cringe. And Stacey Ds ability to remain calm and even-keeled and even funny in the face of what cant be a funny situation for her, really. And so now that all is beauty and insight and reflection and turmoil and uncertainty and impending deportation for me, I thought I would post. I saw that Stacey writes as if she has recently been deported from Greece; any tips she can offer on deportation and what is involved exactly where the rubber meets the road deportation-wise would be appreciated. Two weeks ago they told me that they would deport me last Tuesday, but so far, nothing. But this weekend I may have a date! (That is not a Smiths quote, exclamation point notwithstanding). May. Have. A. Date. This is exciting, since it has happened through no fault of my own, other than that, although the wider issues of the day continue to pass me by, I have recently stopped looking at the floor when people talk to me, and instead stare deeply into their beautiful pale green eyes and admire their glowing, rosy complexion when they are helping me talk to people who speak neither English nor Italian but only Slovene while I am trying to buy a car stereo, an event which would in any case be too difficult for me accomplish properly in English, let alone Italian. She saved me. Then sometimes this saving leads to a bumping-into later at a club and then an asking for my number and a promise to phone and then a date and then an offer to marry me, you know, strictly to keep me from being deported. (These last two are extrapolated). But I really need to find out more about this deportation thing, in case the projected wedding falls through. Have many of you been deported ever? The main thing is, I dont want any Slovenian police forcibly loading me onto a plane to the states. I would much prefer to load my car with salmon and CDs and my friend Peri, now that I have a stereo and dont have to listen to Peri prattle on, and slip across the alps. I like the idea of slipping across the alps in any case, in a sort of Von Trapp family way. Peri (who is also going to be deported, even more deported than me, if there are degrees to it, if she doesnt find someone to marry her soon) and I have tickets to the Edinburgh show thats just a month away, so obviously Slipping Across The Alps is choice #1. Peri is new to B&S but is training up nicely. She sings along with Stars of Track and Field. She comes to my apartment with interesting insights on Seeing Other People, which she shares over vodka. Lots of it, mostly. Speaking of the universal solvent, at the massive glittering palace of conspicuous consumption here in Nova Gorica, Slovenia, one cannot find Stolichnaya, for some reason, but *B&S Brand Vodka* can be had for a frighteningly small sum. A pittance, actually, which makes me not really want to try it. Maybe I will bring some for pre/post-gig excitement, if any (!?!), in Edinburgh. Anyway, in the non-deportation scenario (we have other irons in the fire besides our vain hopes of wedding the pretty ones who look at us for no apparent reason) is, we fly to London Stanstead two days before the show and rent a car and drive to Edinburgh, sans salmon. After that we will be in Scotland for a week or so before we have to be back in Slovenia, if allowed back. So I am hoping that many charitable souls will make suggestions for how we might/can/should spend the week--offers to help us do same also accepted happily. Peri is hoping that we can find some debauchery in Edinburgh and/or Glasgow, and I am pretty hopeful myself, provided I dont have a Slovenian wife by then. Also, since the Slovenian music scene just isnt the same since Laibach disappeared, we are hoping there might be other little musical goings-on in the area while were there, that is, if were not too busy debauching. Anyway, please invite us both to any planned reindeer games going on before/after the show. We are starved for native-speaker contact, not to mention like-minded folk. Is it all too pathetic? Thought so. If any southerners would like to ride to Edinburgh with us Saturday night or Sunday morning, let me know. The car-hire thing is not confirmed yet, but pretty damn likely. Michell Ruiz, as a seasoned Legoer of the first order, I recommend that you follow to the letter the suggestions of Ken regarding concentrating on a pet-textured Lego pet. Maintenance issues would be so much simpler, and really, pets made out of Legos, if properly constructed, are just as affectionate as pets made out of meat and hair.

Sinister: Only CHU KEN prevent forrest fires
by Stewie-Louie Ratatouille 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

After having read many of the Ken Chu thingys, I think I figured out the rules. If I have mucked it up (or offended Ken or Smokey), please forgive me. Even though I have never seen any of you (and known it anyway) you will all be among the first to hear that I got into my first choice for Ph.D. programs with full funding. (oh yeah ... booty dance!!!) The fact that I thought of posting this (before I thought of calling my parents or anyone else for that matter) could be taken two ways: 1) I feel a deep and powerful connection to all of you and love you dearly. or 2) My non-virtual existence is pathetically less exciting and emotionally intense than this (which is really indicative of a frightening level of pathetic-ness). Because I am in a good mood at the moment I will assume the former. Content Alert!!!! Just yesterday I got my very on coy of the Legal Man single. I am not sure whether I am disappointed or relieved that the song Judy Is a Dick Slap had no lyrics. I guess I was feeling particularly smutty last night but not so much this morning. Or it could be that my craptacular cd player isn't allowing me to hear the words. I have been listening to REM for about 15 years now and I only recently heard a guitar part on Murmur when I played the disc for a friend at his house (on his ultra flash player). I've just realized this was a waste of a post - please forgive me. I just wanted to share.

Sinister: A little change, and now I'm happy
by Fernando Brito 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

Queridos Sinistros, I've been so busy since my "fantabulous" first post (thanks, Bron!), I wanted to post this earlier but I really couldn't find the time! I also haven't read all of your twee letters, but I promise that I will, prolly on this weekend. But first I need to tell you the news: I had a date last weekend! It was a blind date! Well, in fact it was sort of my first date ever! Not that I never had a girlfriend, I just don't take going out with girlfriends as being a date, it's simply going out, having fun. But this time it was different, it had to be pleasant, I had to have interesting stuff to talk about, I had to be funny. That's what a date is all about, right?! At the first time we never know what's about to happen, it can be very stressing! So I decided we would go to an Irish Pub not far from my flat. I've never been there, neither has she, so I was taking a huge risk of screwing things up. You know, what if that wasn't an Irish Pub at all but a whorehouse or something?! What would she think about me?! Actually I've been observing that place almost everyday on my way back home and I had an idea of what kind of place it was. We got there about midnight, it was crowded and there was no table for us to sit at, so our date started with the two of us standing in a corner, a little squeezed among the crowd. It took more than an hour until we finally sat at the counter, and another hour until we got a table. But it was funny, it didn't matter because we were enjoying each other. Well, I was at least. Now guess what was our main topic during the night? Music, of course! Mainly Belle and Sebastian! What else?! I must admit that I was the only one who talked about B&S, because my date didn't know much about them. And I told her about Gentle Waves, and adverted her to do not think I'm a sissy for loving Isobel's songs! Now, do you guys think B&S is a good subject for a date chatting? Alright, I'm sure you'll say yes! But even if your date knows nothing about them? Well, for me it was an excellent subject, for now she's curious about them and I invited her to come to my flat to listen to my CDs! Yep, it's Belle and Sebastian helping people to make moves! Her name is Denise. She found me at ICQ, can you believe that? I've never done this kind of thing, meeting people I haven't even seen before! We talked a lot of times by phone but it took a while till we finally met. She's cute: long black hair, big eyes... and I'll phone her tonight. I haven't talked to her since our date! Not that I'm playing hard to get, but I've been working a lot these days. The day before yesterday I spent 14 hours at work, I supose it was a record for me! Anyway, I don't have a reason to play hard to get, I don't think we have a future, not as a couple. I don't have an explanation for that, but I simply cannot picture myself with her. Weird, huh? Maybe it's denial! But what really matters is that I changed. I'm so happy to be able to do such a thing, to go out and meet new people. I know it seems no big deal for some, but I'm so shy... I think it's time for me to leave behind my shyness before I'm too old to do the things I want to do. Although I left my mother's home and started doing things by myself, I still don't feel that I'm taking control of my life, I feel more like I'm actually just sitting and watching. But when I was coming back from that date, I knew things were different. Just a little, but they were. And now I'm happy! Ciao...

Sinister: I should be sincerely sorry to see my neighbor's children devoured by wolves
by Laura Llew 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

"Oh, I remember this song. My favorite part is coming up... the end!" --comment from my "friend" when I put in Belle & Sebastian's, Stars Of Track & Field on our roadtrip. A few years ago, at the desperate request of their parents, I went on a (oh so very long) roadtrip with someone who was severely mentally ill. I spent the entire trip having to wrestle my stolen car keys from them, keep them from jumping out of the speeding car on a busy interstate, and talking for hours persuading them to get back in the car in Montreal, again in Pennsylvania, and then in Upstate New York as they resolutely sat hugging their knees refusing to budge. AT LEAST, they liked listening to Belle and Sebastian though! Solo roadtrips are the way to go, my friends. Before I go any further, I would like to send out my public thanks to Miss Jenny Payne who organized the Sinister Valentine's Day exchange AND gave me yet another beautiful mix to which I listened to while driving down to Charlotte to pick a friend up from the airport (the exact same circumstances which I listened to the first mix she gave me. Tradition! Now, if only I were a rich man...) For the first time ever I had my very own boy for Valentines! ****AND**** (if I read Sinister posts correctly) he has a girlfriend! This makes me more of a brazen hussy than everything else combined -I'm excited! Of course, poor VD boy he said that the USPS standards were good enough for him so as long as I didn't send along bodily fluids it was OK. Well, there went my ideas! Oh, I suppose I should thank my Valentine, Mr. Michael Vance too - for the chocolate and CD. Also enclosed was a recipe for a chocolate covered boy though sadly boy wasn't included. Michelle Ruiz mused: >I also want to get a pet of some kind (not a dog or a cat..yet) since I was >a deprived child and never had one. Maybe a >turtle or an iguana I thought the same thing so for my 23rd birthday I asked for a pet turtle since I love them so. However, turtles are illegal to sell in North Carolina as they carry salmonella or some such (does this mean that they make mayonnaise from turtles?) but after much searching we were able to find a BLACK MARKET turtle dealer. I was so excited. I even bought a Turtle Owner Handbook where I read that the each time you take the turtle from one environment (like it's little turtleworld aquarium) to another (like the carpet of my bedroom floor) that you shorten it's life span. I really couldn't justify making a poor turtle's life shorter just so i could play with him so I opted not to have a turtle. Thus, I'm now 24 and have never had a pet though I'm very seriously contemplating getting a Bookstore Dog. I would need something on the smallish side (though not tiny - just nothing huge) that doesn't shed much or bark obnoxiously. Plus, it should look sad and brooding so I can call it my Proust Pooch. Any ideas? Love & Lime Jello, Laura VOCABULARY WORDS: Brazen Hussy Proust Pooch Salmonella Desperate Request Chocolate Covered Boy VD STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Why do you always hear the words "brazen" and "hussy" together - never separately or mated with another word? Have you ever heard just 'brazen' used when not followed by hussy? The only examples I could find of "brazen" used by itself were by a mass of dead guys - Shakespeare, Joyce, etc.- who might have been benefited if their brazens had a little hussy action involved. Why do you think this is so? Should we change our use of tired cliches before they become too mottled and rusted? Do you think this is an appropriate place to start? How does Gilded Hussy sound to you? (Note: That is not, "How does a Gilded Hussy sound to you?" This is not an offer.) 2. Are you, like me, for anything that's followed by a hussy? (woo!) Evidently, hussy is a corruption of "housewife" (in more way that one, eh?) 3. A new product I just got in the shop is a kit for putting on a Shakespeare play (Taming of the Shrew) in 45 minutes with cards for each character. For example, there's one for Gremio which reads, "You are old and rich. No woman under the age of seventy is even going to consider marrying you. But don't let that stop you. Money can solve almost any problem. Possible celebrity role models: Mr. Magoo, jimmy Stewart, or Ronald Regan." The one for the Lusty Widow reads, "You have only three lines at the very end of the play, but you can use them to show that you are a fiery woman, a handful for any man, and probably too much for Hortensio to handle. Shake your mane of flaxen hair (there's a wig included in the kit!) and unloose your inner vixen." How would a card for each of the following go - a brazen hussy, a chocolate covered boy, and a proust pooch? _________________________________________________________________ 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: Hi, I'm new!
by Dino Miniutti 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

After crawling out of the nursery on my hands and feet (funny it's usually a pub that I'm crawling out of) I thought that I'd say hi to all of you and say how much I've enjoyed being on the list so far -- It's so refreshing to hear people speaking from the heart and talking about stuff that really matters to them. I hope to participate a lot more actively in the future, well as soon as I get this sling off -- yes, I was one of the 75% who tried to lick their own elbow. Oh, when will I learn...

Sinister: She's looking like our Ken but if Chu knew what's going on in her life...
by The Cat's Pajamas 28 Feb '02

28 Feb '02

Hi all, I don't know if the title pun is original or not...I don't remember seeing it anywhere, and I worked so very hard to come up with it, so if I plagiarized anybody's title, please let me know...it wasn't intentional. Surprisingly enough, the title is rather pertinent to the rest of the e-mail. Allow me to present the evidence for you. First, our beloved Ken's picture from the Sinister website: http://www.missprint.org/sinister/people/KenJuggle.html Next, an add for microsoft I pulled off my hotmail homepage: http://the_cats_pajamas.tripod.com/ken.gif Given the strong visual evidence, I can only come up with 3 possibilities: 1. Microsoft is the root of all evil and have begun a comprehensive cloning initiative and have decided to help defray the cost by using some of the clones as models. Given Ken's frigteningly good looks he was a natural choice for the modelling program. 2. Ken has sold out to the man and is using his good looks for the forces of evil. He appears to have bought breast implants with the money he has made so far... 3. The person in the picture is the anti-Ken and if Ken were ever to come into contact with the anti-Ken, both would disappear instantly in a flash of energy capable of leveling major cities. Of course, it also may just be some old lady from a microsoft ad that doesn't really look like Ken at all, but really, how plausible is that?
