When you've been on sinister for a fair amount of time you'd notice that there are often patches of "good" and "bad" sinister periods.. it seems that we're on one of those bad patches now where all the posts that I read are either intriguing and/or sweet and/or raises a smile to my face and/or from people I love, making me unable to stop reading and/or do anything constructive other than trying to write something good myself. Well everything appeared to have gone from bad to better after going to Brighton, the air of salt from the sea helped to neutralise my post-vacation blues. Watching the waves come pounding along the beach, spraying a wash of white bubbles along the beach before falling back down again.. I can do that all day, and do nothing else. I can't afford it though, doing nothing costs a lot of money. Things are looking up, my house moving plans with my friend are slowly working out, the World Cup is starting and I looked at the Belle and Sebastian website and it said "Treasure Hunt - the answers to the clues will be revealed VERY SOON". I almost fainted in glee. Like most of the e-mails, this real purpose of this e-mail is for talking about ME! me me me Or rather, the TAPES, that you were meant to send to ME: = THE SINISTER NAMESAKE MIXTAPE CHALLENGE = =============================================== Remember that? Lemme Recap. There was once upon a time when a lovely lady called Rachel Fruitloop used to make up her own versions of Sinister Digest, she has been quiet of late but there was a time when she was in a clan of Rudd Gurrls known as The Rachels (rather than the guitar noodler band "The Rachels"), they were so ruud, they got into trouble with a lot of people called William (aka The Williams), and a few people called Rob, Robin or Robyn (called The Robs?), and sinister was in chaos! So, in order to resolve their conflicts, the Rachels, the Wills and the Robs were to each compile a mixtape with songs selected from all members of their group, and eventually send it to KEN, who will judge them and then tell them who won. I've even given these psycho internet freaks my address so that they can send me their tapes. However, they've taken so BLUDDY LONG to make these tapes, that now I'm even MOVING HOUSE! And no tapes were to be seen. So, basically, the Rachels, the Wills, the Robs: ***Can you please each send me an email to let me know if you're still playing, and if you're making any progress, and when you finish, send me a mail so I can give you a NEW ADDRESS! (I don't have it yet) Okay, from what a gather here's a progress report: Rachels: Last time I heard (2 months ago) it was flying over the Atlantic Ocean Wills: Last time I heard was about 6 months ago, and now one of the Wills have actually turned into a girl. Robs: The most promising of the three who are almost finished, AND have already sent me an e-mail, as they should, telling me how much they love me. Bless 'em. = NEW ENTRIES = ================ If you read the above you can see that I haven't actually received any tapes yet, so it's not too late to start your VERY OWN! Find fellow namesakes on sinister (do it with PRIVATE EMAILS please not over the list publically), and make me a tape! Winners get a snog from me you know. I've heard that you have a higher chance of winning if you have a girl's name, or are a girl with a boy's name. I feel better now that I've contributed to posting a "good" post. Oooh hang on, one last bit to make my post complete: People: please donate all of your porno mags to my shop! AND ALSO This is to the girl with long hair and glasses who was at the Terrorvision gig last year, do you remember seeing this Really Good Looking Boy at the corner? Well, it wasn't me, but e-mail me anyway because I! L!O!V!E! Y!O!U! Love and Red Bulls Ken xx P.S.: The two girls on the Story Telling album are hotttttttttttt. P.S.2.: I had a sinister dream about the two list mummies last night who are even hotttter X-Box: After this post I'll probably have nightmares of the two list mummies who are about to spank me ****************************************************************************** CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT This email, its content and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the addressee(s) and may be legally privileged and/or confidential.
