I took off my blindfold and removed my ear plugs this morning, only for the first thing I see to be the NME, in all its resplendent Bowlie glory. I thought I was on the road to recovery, but this has just set me back by a good few weeks. All this talk of dancing in the rain, paddling in the sea, and of course, the perhaps now legendary mobile wanking device (can I get the blueprints...?) got me thinking, but then that wasn't really the reason I wrote this... I just wanted to say that while you all had 'fun' in a holiday camp, I wrote a marvellously interesting and witty essay on Madonna and her position in the film and music industry. And yes, I managed to get B&S into it, with my industrial strength essay shoehorn. The only problem was that my lecturer returned it to me today, marked and with a note about making up bands to prove points where only the facts will do. I went to speak to her and she asked me if I thought she was stupid, as she knew B&S was an old tv programme, and did I think I was funny? I found it all a little too surreal to argue, so didn't bother. I am getting a little disturbed though. The Mental Swathes have almost got me thrown out of Virgin and B&S are getting me in trouble with lecturers. Read next week for Looper got me arrested after framing me for fraud. or something. hope all the Bowlie in September/August rumours are true as my better half is still a tad, er, miffed about the miscommunication that resulted in our non attendance at this one. And I'm going to see Pavement and shes not.....whoops.... byebye david x +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
