Sinister: I don't think you could be dealing with the situation very well
by LilGrape25＠aol.com 17 Nov '01

17 Nov '01

I would just like to say that I am very sorry for my last post being sent to you all about 10 times. My school's computer spazzed out and just kept sending it. It was not intentional, I promise. Hopefully you've all gotten over this minor annoyance by now, and won't hold it against me. Hopefully the computer won't do the same thing with this post, if so, I'm sorry in advance and its AOL's fault. Much love, Rachel Grapenut +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: first post ever with B&S content - only. Well, almost.
by Astrid Wiezell 17 Nov '01

17 Nov '01

Hullo there sinister, how are you feeling today? I am feeling pretty good actually. Listening to the coolest swedish 60s pop EVER - Ola & The Janglers! They´re grate, everyone should listen to them. Download: Everything´s allright Don´t turn your back Can´t you feel (the ache in my heart) These three songs cover up their sound quite good. Yes. In my subject line, I wrote that there was supposed to be some B&S-content, and surely there will be. Some quesitons for the elder and wise.. BUT FIRST! This is a cry for help!!! I have the track Sometimes Always with Jesus & Mary Chain on a mix-cd i got from a boy i don´t know very well at all, and I am now DESPERATE for more. I want like an introductiontape or cd. I was all confused in the record shop and I didn´t buy anything. Of course I will make a tape back to the one who make me one. E-mail me offlist if you think that you could put together a nice tape with them for me. I´m seeking a introduciontape/cd with Felt as well. I´ve tried everywhere, but either no one listens to them anymore or something, or they are just being lazy. PLEEEEEEASE? *puppyeyes* Some things I´ve been wondering about for ages but still haven´t asked: 1. I´ve got some B&S-demos and livestuff. Does anyone know when following things were recorded and by who (i.e if there was only Struan or anyone else involved): a) Hurley´s having dreams (I think I hear Stevie there..) b) Rhoda (my favourite) c) Lord Anthony d) London has let me down e) Pocketbook angel (another favourite) f) Landslide (well, i know the whole band is on it, but does anyone know what year?) Also; Er.. Er.. ER... Oh fuck, I forgot. Oh well. Sorry for this short and very boring post, but I am desperate for answers. Please give me answers, I am desperate for them as this is bugging me to death. I think about it every-fuckin-day and I am getting sick and tired of it. I thought that it ould stop, but it´s stuck in my brain like gum in your hair. Like that´s a good excuse for writing a bad post...

Sinister: And for the savannahs, infrequent rains. But rain enough.
by Ruvi Simmons 17 Nov '01

17 Nov '01

We are approaching my very favourite part of the day or night. It is my favourite through the very fact of being neither day nor night. It hovers between the two and reminds me of the dragonflies I watched mating in Guangxi Province; the red one attaching itself to the green, and flying in an elegant line across the brown waters where boys swam naked with the water buffalo. Contrary to popular wisdom, this narrow space of time, which shifts from season to season, is the real witching hour. The popular wisdom was designed to scare kids to an early bed, but now is the true magic hour, the hour of transition when the waking world exudes a mingled scent that I would die happy if I could define. I haven't seen sunlight in days. Sometimes, if I've overdosed on French poetry, I think I am a perverted moth with an abnormal life-span. And no wings with which to fly. On Monday I was arrested for drunk and disorderly. On Tuesday I shaved my eyebrows. On Wednesday I lay in bed with hangovers and shame. On Thursday I wrote about horizons. On Friday, well, to me it is still Friday, and I want to see the sea. I have been thinking about the Sinister Christmas Present Exchange. It is a lovely idea, of course. However, I can't help but feel that Christmas is not the best time to exchange gifts, because that is when families and friends give presents to one another, when there are trees, lights, carols and high-stacked tables for gluttonous orgying. Or at least that's how I remember Christmas being, in the good old days when I would put out a mince pie and a glass of milk for Santa. Or, at the suggestion of my dear Pa, a glass of sherry. Then the glass got progressively bigger and, in time, I came to wonder whether Santa really needed that whole bottle with his mince pie. Was present-giving such thirsty work, and were all the other kids so stingy? But be that as it may, it strikes me that the best time for exchanging gifts is when the trees, the tinsel, the carols and the pies have all been stored away with the Happy Memories and fading photos. When January descends like a great bore and we wear two pairs of socks for the cold, waiting for Spring. After all, it is in the dark hours when the kindness of strangers, or virtual strangers, or real strangers, counts for the most. And as for Christmas generally: Bah, humbug. What I remember most of Christmases in the family home was the glut of arguments, depression and head-bowed returns to duty that proceeded them as inevitably as indigestion after Christmas dinner, and hangovers on Boxing Day. The thing that puzzled me as a child, and still does, is why confine all that giving and "quality" time and sharing of hospitality to a few measly days at the arse-end of the year? Why nail magic to points on the calendar? Perhaps it is easier that way, but wouldn't it be better make every day a sort of Christmas, and every day a birthday? There may well be a nice symbolism to Christ's nativity and our own births, which serve as sledgehammer reminders of the miracle of our existences and the primacy of loving kindness, but wouldn't it be far more miraculous to extend those feelings across every day and every hour, spreading a little light into all the Januaries, Mondays and hours when no celebration has been prescribed? I've been dreaming in vivids and swirls recently, but one's own dreams are never interesting to others. So I shan't say a thing about them. If you couldn't tell, we have walked together through the witching hour and out the other side. In fact, 3 hours have passed, and we are firmly dug into the morning. I get tired just thinking about the movement and life that has begun on the streets and in the offices of this city. Unreal City, under the brown fog....and nevermind all that. I'm tempted to go to bed and dip my feet lazily into books I can't be bothered to commit to fully reading. But didn't I say something about the sea? Yes. When the grind becomes audible, and the thud of a million feet invokes a languid, smug indolence, it's time to move. Now, rather than a moth, I can be like a perverted Cliff Richard going on a Winter Holiday. He can keep his Peter Pan antics and hordes of platinum blonde Rotherham adorers. I'll be the Lao Tsu of Pop to his short tennis, any day of the week. And finally, a reminder that my now-very-much-or-perhaps-only-provisionally-titled magazine, Glass Beads, is still desirous of contributors. Well, let's face it, I am desirous of contributors. If anyone is interested, they are more than welcome to get in touch. Did you know the English peasantry used to refer to one another as 'souls'? Can we trace the crumbling of community to terms of address falling out of fashion? Probably not. Did you know that, as I write and you read this, the tides are on the move and, though the moon is hidden, they are trying to reach up and touch its/his/her cheek? Until next time, souls, Ruvi. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: the tape
by Snoozer/ Maíra Ezequiel 17 Nov '01

17 Nov '01

Hi, everyone. Well, some people here asked me about the recording of b&s concert in Rio. I've said it didn't work out, but then again i thought i had a chance!!! Yesterday the tv reprised (!?) the concert. Unfortunately, not all of it. Edited with commercials. Argh! What to do? As i've said, the quality is great, you people are gonna love it! So,... send me your addresses everyone and i'll try to send them one by one. As international mail in Brazil is kinda expensive, please don't expect all the recordings right away at the same time. BE PATIENT! I promise i'll do the best i can to make everyone happy. ;) About the trades, we can discuss as soon as you receive'em. Here's the content (about an hour): - Interview with Mick and Chris; - TV intro (history and bits of b&s videos); - the concert: 1) Le Pastie de la Burgeoise 2) Women's Realm 3) New (i don't know whether it's in one of the two last singles or they just didn't record it yet). It's a very nice song, with clapping hands and the word 'señorita'. 4) I Fought in the War (the voice of the woman on the tv spoils this one) 5) Me and the Major 6) Don't leave the light on Babe 7) The Model 8) Simple Things 9) The Boy with the Arab Strap 10) The Fox in the Snow 11) Judy and the Dream of Horses 12) The Wrong Girl 13) Minha Menina (Stevie's portuguese singing is incredibly funny) 14) Legal Man AND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last weekend MTV Brasil presented a special show with Belle & Sebastian. It's called "Lado B", and it's like the american "120 min.". Anyway this show was all Scottish bands special and there were 4 live b&s songs in Trama studios (that is the company which releases b&s records in Brazil). Also, there's a Stuart Murdoch interview and several videos of the band. This can be included in the rest of the tape, right? ok, waiting for your replies.. take care, Fabio the Snoozer +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Harry Potter makes baby Jesus cry
by JAMES GILMER 17 Nov '01

17 Nov '01

Yes, I saw the movie today. I went to an afternoon showing to try and avoid the rush (didn't help much, I suspect there were a lot of empty seats at school today). Brilliant. Utterly charming and smart, and it stayed true to the novel. The actors were perfectly cast, the special effects worked rather well for the most part, and the atmosphere was dead on. I happened to be telling my dad how much I'd enjoyed it a moment ago, when he told me about mentioning the film to a co-worker who had kids, said person replied; "I wouldn't take my kids to see that WITCHCRAFT!! I'm a Christian!" Ahh, fuck those people, fuck them with knives. I've got no patience with people who are worried that an invisible superhero who lives in outer space might not approve of Harry Potter. Kids love Harry and his books and they'll love the movie, and that's about all that matters. That, and the fact that JK Rowling is rather sexy, and goodness knows we need more sexy writers. I caught a Beatles special awhile ago where they interviewed her and she told a story about coming home drunk off her ass (or arse, in this case) one night on the train singing "Hey, Jude" rather loudly and how the whole train car joined in. Is there any question why I think Rowling is ace? Kyla said: "In response to the newly-repeated Sinister phrase "fuck it, fuck it with knives" Moo hoo ha ha! I've got you people saying it now! I'm strangely proud of starting that meme. Punk Rock!! \m/ Speaking of PUNK ROCK! things; Black Cherry soda is my new addiction. I'm drinking the ICB stuff right now, bu it was this brand out in Portland I had (I think it was Thomas Kemper's or something, wish I could find it around here) that started my addiction. Yummy stuff. Ian said: "somewhere in the black mining hills of dakota there lived a young boy called..." And now I have that bloody song stuck in my head. Someone hand me the mental floss, Beatles song or not, I need that out of my head. Laura Llew revealed my secret past as a 50's teen idol when she wrote: The Real Jimmy G: http://www.gocontinental.com/photos/gilmer_j_2a.jpg Ahh, you got me Llew, my secret's out. The scariest thing is my dad used to have an old 45 of "Jimmy Gilmer & the Fireballs" featuring the rather annoying song "Go Jimmy, Go" on it. ~stine (aka toadie) wrote: "can someone, anyone, please explain to me why in the bloody hell the white stripes have a job?" Agreed, I liked one or two songs I'd heard by them, but for the most part they're a talent-free zone. Speaking of Talent-Free Zones; Tori Amos. I suspect alien mind-altering rays are responsible for her popularity. I always get crap from a few friends about my opinion on this, but I'm sorry, i must have just missed the boat here. The same goes for Magnetic Fields. I just don't get it; "WOW! 69 completely medicore songs about love sang in mildly different styles!! What a fucking genius!" Added to the fact that he's a bit of a twat onstage, and I just don't understand it at all. "But Jim!! It's part of his act! The way he sits up there and pretentiously glowers down at the audience! Look! He's smoking! He's on stage and he's singing medicore, boring songs and he's SMOKING!" Obviously a fucking genius, why didn't I see it before? oh, do put the torches down, it's just my opinion. I usually try not to slag off bands, as I really hate music snobs and try deperately not to sound like one, but I'm not above offering my opinion from time to time. I'm quite excited about the Sinister picnic, and yes, more details to follow soon. I've heard rumours that the noodle goddess herself may grace the event, assuming she asks for the day off (which she had better). So make sure you Chicago (and near) people come and join Elise, ~stine, Nikki, Kirsten (hopefully), and the rest of us Sinister peeps on December 1st in the big C-town. Both Kirsten and Elise wrote of their lovely day in Madison and Elise wrote "hopefully next time Jimmy G can come with too." Sure, rub in the fact the fact that I missed spending a day exploring a city I love with two of the coolest girls in the midwest. *sigh* I want my rocket car goddammit!! Oh, thanks and cheers to all those who shared their "Best/Worse Chat-up Lines", I was greatly amused. They made an annoying week quite a bit better. And lastly, on the subject of love (which just won't die, will it?): "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make" That is all you need to know. Jim (aka patch, aka Jimmy G, aka Jimmy Two-Guns, aka "Just Jim!", aka Heathen Boy, aka...) "These are the words that will infect your soul, curve your spine and bring, God help us, peace without honor." --G.Carlin _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: does writing sinister count as progress on applications?
by Kyla Schuller 16 Nov '01

16 Nov '01

I'd assumed I'd heard the worst of it when "chocky bicky" escaped my friend's lips. But now this . . . "christmas pressie." Robin, if you are up to it, please shed some light on the terrifyingly British need to diminutize everything. Was this the custom when the empire was still robust? Or is it a way of asserting the speaker's magnanimity in the face of her country's shrinking significance in the post-imperial era? My friend has cleverly coined the genre of Shag Pop for those ingeniously filthy sex-obsessed British bands such as Hefner, Pulp, Arab Strap, and Tindersticks. I helpfully pointed out the aptness of their member's names: Darren HYMAN, Jarvis COCKer, DICKon Hinchliffe. There must be more, and you are more qualified than I to generate them. In response to the newly-repeated Sinister phrase "fuck it, fuck it with knives" I'm tempted to contribute a story about sitting two feet in front of a sex performance artist at my favorite San Francisco lesbian strip club while she, well, you can imagine (don't worry, she was safe: it was neatly sheathed in a condom), but I don't know what sort of reputation I might garner in this parish. Whatever it would be, I would fall far short of its promise, that's for sure. Let's just say that the most terrifying part was immediately after the show, when she tore around the club in search of her huge glass-ensconced pillar candle (two guesses how this piece was incorporated into her act) screaming, "where's my candle? who took my candle?," seemingly unaware of the roomful of cloudy, averted eyes who wanted nothing more than extreme distance from the honeyed object. Pure hope, she had. Poor hope. Changing the topic considerably, the advice for clandestine workplace Sinister reading has brought to mind Jane Austen. Being a woman who wrote in the 1790s, she was not allowed to be a woman who wrote. So she hid her papers under her sewing, while she sat at a small circular table in the family drawing room. When afforded the opportunity to be alone, she pulled out her papers and wrote a few lines -- until approaching footsteps shamed her into burying the paper under cloth once more. Her grave, in Winchester Cathedral, marks her as a charming daughter. Not one word of her future status as Mark Twain's favorite writer. Now, should word get out that Kirsten Kenyon writes in secret, stealing a line or two at a time, I would be truly impressed. A massive Sinister fundraising campaign to rent the girl a snowy cottage somewhere frighteningly cold with absolutely no geese would be in order. A sort of Sinister fellowship, if you will, with a DSL connection, a cabinet full of liquor, and a free candy machine in the bedroom. You may submit your application at any time, dear. Happy Birthday today to my favorite Sinister lurker, Jacob M. of Superhero Resources International. -- kyla __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: i heard that humans can fly too.
by nafees saeed 16 Nov '01

16 Nov '01

the weekend is here...finally. it's been a long week for me, i thought that i didn't have any work to do but i did. i was apparently supposed to be revising for exams which i umm...forgot about. which means i've pretty much failed. i don't mind failing, but...this might sound silly but i feel like i've let my tutors down. for once i actually like the tutors i have so i feel extra guilty for not doing too well. i think that this week has been the real start to winter. now that the clocks have gone back it's dark earlier and it's been ridiculously cold. people in hats and scarves and stuff. i was reading idle's post about setting up a website about bus and how bad they are. i'd like to nominate first bus company. i don't know if they operate outside the greater manchester area but they really are rubbish. it's as if they've launched a personal campaign against me. evidence : 1. whenever i get a bus, a bus never comes in the direction that i want to go but at least 50 go in the opposite direction. 2. the bus drivers do seem to be the most miserable people ever, they never crack a smile nor do they say a word. all they do is demand money and frown. 3. they seem to put small busses on the most bussiest routes and double decker ones on the least bussiest roots. for example the 409 which i catch home from college is regularly packed with as many people as possible. an arkward incident occured the other day. as we were all forced to stand, i had to stand infront of the rail and there was a man infront of me. he had nowhere to place his hands so he had to wrap his arms around me as if he was hugging me to hold on to the rail. this meant that for twenty minutes i had to put up with looking this guy right in the face and him breathing on me. i tried to be considerate and not breathe as much. but this nearly led me to pass out so the poor bloke had to put up with me breathing in his face too. something b&s related happened the other day. me and some of my english class decided rent out a video of "the tempest" from the college library to understand it better and we were watching it. it was thoroughly boring until the character aerial appeared. much to my surprise the person who played aerial looked almost identical to stuart. if you can imagine stuart wearing nothing but a loin cloth (which i'm sure some of you already do) and being covered in gold body paint then that was aerial. he even danced like stuart too. everybody else wondered why i was laughing so much...ahh well. it was good. i like the idea of the christmas present exchange thing. i didn't participate last year, but i will this year. i only have an idea for one present but i'm sure i'll think of more. speaking of christmas, everywhere seems to be decked out for christmas now. even my shopping part of my local town. they went all out this year and went for the fairytale theme. there's this rather large beanstalk in the middle of town with santa claus scaling it. there's even a santa you can go to and request presents. me and my friend watched for a while, all these little kids came out with biggest smiles on their faces. it was disheartening to see him smoking afterwards though. take care, nafees. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: (no subject)
by LilGrape25＠aol.com 16 Nov '01

16 Nov '01

To Sinister with love, I have made a habit of reading and posting during free periods in school where I have no one else to be with, of which there are many. Here I sit in the lovely computer lab sneaking junior mints and feeling cool as I read and listen to the wee 7th graders discuss their pre-algebra homework. ("mollieeeee, whats an inequalityyy?") Today has been a fantastic day thus far. First, this morning, something happened that I've been waiting to happen for a long time. Let me give you a little backround: Every morning I take a schoolbus to school. Its not one of those nice big ones that are on TV and in movies and all the people who live uptown of me take, but rather a tiny one with 4 or 5 rows of seats that are not made for two high school aged behinds each. Of course, as I am the last stop, I always have to sit on the isle of a seat and thus don't really get enough space for my whole behind. Today I got pretty lucky and got a spot next to a rather small girl and could fit half my butt on the seat. I had chem istry to study and thus couldn't pay complete attention to balancing my self, as I do most mornings, and so (this is the big thing coming) I fell off! I slid right off the bench and into the isle! I laughed, as did the rest of the bus, and got back up. I'm glad it finally happened, I've been waiting. Also today my gym class had to run outside for a mile or so, and for the first time I ran the whole way! I thought I was going to collapse, but I didn't. I'm very tired. Tonight I'm seeing The Harry Potter movie with my Totally Obsessed friend lindsey and a bunch of our other friends. I'm very excited, even though the movie promises to be drawn out and boring. (come on, three hours for a childrens movie!) She's going to make us play the trivia game, which I will do terribly at since I only read the first two harry potter books and I barely remember them, but hopefully I will permitted to knit and listen and I'll almost definately finish my first hat! Funny how minor excitements in life all pile up on one da, and how when you get into the mindset that you are acheiving things and life is excellent, everything you do becomes an acheivement, and everything seems more excellent Thats not such a profound statement when I type it out, but in my head its really a revalation, so trust me. Well, its off to ¡español!

Sinister: (no subject)

To Sinister with love, I have made a habit of reading and posting during free periods in school where I have no one else to be with, of which there are many. Here I sit in the lovely computer lab sneaking junior mints and feeling cool as I read and listen to the wee 7th graders discuss their pre-algebra homework. ("mollieeeee, whats an inequalityyy?") Today has been a fantastic day thus far. First, this morning, something happened that I've been waiting to happen for a long time. Let me give you a little backround: Every morning I take a schoolbus to school. Its not one of those nice big ones that are on TV and in movies and all the people who live uptown of me take, but rather a tiny one with 4 or 5 rows of seats that are not made for two high school aged behinds each. Of course, as I am the last stop, I always have to sit on the isle of a seat and thus don't really get enough space for my whole behind. Today I got pretty lucky and got a spot next to a rather small girl and could fit half my butt on the seat. I had chem istry to study and thus couldn't pay complete attention to balancing my self, as I do most mornings, and so (this is the big thing coming) I fell off! I slid right off the bench and into the isle! I laughed, as did the rest of the bus, and got back up. I'm glad it finally happened, I've been waiting. Also today my gym class had to run outside for a mile or so, and for the first time I ran the whole way! I thought I was going to collapse, but I didn't. I'm very tired. Tonight I'm seeing The Harry Potter movie with my Totally Obsessed friend lindsey and a bunch of our other friends. I'm very excited, even though the movie promises to be drawn out and boring. (come on, three hours for a childrens movie!) She's going to make us play the trivia game, which I will do terribly at since I only read the first two harry potter books and I barely remember them, but hopefully I will permitted to knit and listen and I'll almost definately finish my first hat! Funny how minor excitements in life all pile up on one da, and how when you get into the mindset that you are acheiving things and life is excellent, everything you do becomes an acheivement, and everything seems more excellent Thats not such a profound statement when I type it out, but in my head its really a revalation, so trust me. Well, its off to ¡español!
