Hello, sinister. My name's Kevin and this is my first post, and I'm pretty happy today. Right now I'm listening to the Dismemberment Plan, which always puts me in a good mood. I rather like their last album, and I think "The Face of the Earth" might be one of my favorite D-Plan songs now. I missed them when they toured with Death Cab For Cutie because it snowed that day and I couldn't drive to Chicago. Oh well, such is life. I'm done with school now, which is good because I don't have to deal with silly things like finals anymore, and those have pretty much dominated the last few days for me. Now I get to look forward to summer, which I'm spending right here in Minnesota. A bunch of my friends will be in town, and many of them will have cars so trips to the Cities will be plentiful. It's not Chicago but it's acceptable. I heard _Storytelling_ for the first time a few days ago. I wasn't expecting too much out of it, since it's a soundtrack and I heard from lots of critics that the movie sucked. Although I did like "Wandering Alone" when they played it at the Chicago show. But the songs were actually really good, and I guess as a whole the record exceeded my expectations even though the spoken bits are stupid. Now I just need to wait until Friday when I get my paycheck so I can actually buy it... I'm also happy because my World Cup teams are doing well. I'm following three closely; South Africa because I'm studying it to get my degree, Ireland because it runs in my blood, and the U.S. because I live here. The U.S. plays tonight, of course, and per tradition I'll be slaughtering my sleep schedule to stay up until 3:30 watching it. This has become a ritual for me of late; that Mexico-Ecuador game last night was better than I thought it might be after the first half when nothing happened. anyway. I'm getting longwinded. So much for brief introductions. ^_^; --kevin +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
