Hello sinistees, I haven't written much lately, mainly due to being in the Scootish Heelans taking phootoos of heelan coos and horses. It is hard to write e-mails whilst a horse is giving you the "come any closer and I'll jump over the fence and trample all over you alright? Punk." look, especially without a computer. I think I've forgotten how to write those nice e-mails that make people think "ooh what a lovely fella", but then I don't remember ever knowing how, you need to be a bit of a poet to do that, rather than a bit of an idiet. I just remembered that I've forgotten to talk about the wonderful New Years Eve I've had, but then Richard Gillanders said it all for me - even the bits that I wasn't gonna talk about, like those things that happened when I wasn't there. He has also made my working day less of a drag by giving me a 12k e-mail to read. John Jennings said (wait, why are John Jennings' initials JP?):
I have a horrible feeling we're disappointing past generations though. Lets see, influencial inventions of the last decade... erm... dual cyclone vacuum cleaner... dvd players....and i saw a body dryer thing on tomorrows world which was quite impressive... sigh. how depressing.<<
it's only depressing because you've missed so many things on your list. Who wants to go on a stupid spaceship and be killed by aliens like in films, when you have... ...go-peds, DDR, The people's elbow, Grand Theft Auto 3, Red Bull... ..and the Harry Potter's Levitation Challenge game! I haven't read the books, nor watched the film, but I have seen the world's best ever game ever.. a game that lets you levitate a ball through a 3D maze of obstacles and dangers! If there's ever one game that can only be described by a palindrome, it'd be Hopscotch: "huh?". If there are ever two games, then they'd be Hopscotch: "huh?", and Harry Potter's Levitation Challenge game: "wow!" All these talks of games made me reminise about the day my mum bought me a Super Nintendo, with a copy of Street Fighter II Turbo - "I am so happy!", I remember I said as I executed my first ever "Adore ken" with "Ken" with the SNES's ergonomical joypad, it was a truly happy day. There hadn't been many such happy times ever since, although when I found out I got 2As for A-levels it was good, because the girl I had the world's biggest crush on said "well done", that was nice. When I found out about my degree result that was nice too, but only because it was just before I got to see Belle & Sebastian for the first time later that night. Goodness, three moments of happiness, my life is rather dull isn't it? Last night I dreamt about going to church - yes, life is even dull in my dreams. So, whenever you feel life is letting you down, just think, cheer up, you could have been ken! Ken P.S.: How did you tell I'm back at work? _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
