In a message dated 99-07-26 00:11:27 EDT, you write: << mark casarotto: " I once went out with a girl because she wanted to figure out her sexuality. No prizes for guessing which side of the fence she came down on (no pun intended). Has this happened to anyone else on the list?" >> growing up a dyke, this happened to me quite a few times. 'oh, i think i like girls' and after you've been ignored for a couple days, 'oh, i just wanted to see if i did and it's not really my thing'. it always makes a girl feel good. i don't let myself get interested in anyone who has a question about it anymore. one thing i love about b&s is how the songs aren't so about boy and girl. the lyrics aren't very strict so you can take them to mean that they're talking about you no matter who or what you are. or at least that's how i take them. i wish i had more to write about to this list. i only have sad things going on and no one wants to hear about that and whenever i have b&s thoughts i'm too shy to say them. there should be an intro when you join the list about how to write a clever post that will be accepted in sinister land. if anyone wants to tutor me, feel free. i'm looking for suggestions on french pop. i love france gall and there's a band called caramel that's good, but i don't know much else. can anyone help? i was thinking of buying some francoise hardy or serge gainsbourg tomorrow. are they worth their hefty prices? thanks in advance. *alyssa marie* p.s. lesley jo, i will write soon. i promise. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
