I just had to tell you No, I haven't got a girlfriend. It's better than that: MY HIFI BROKE Wait a minute. I'll slow down. From the beginnning I was just reading through my backlog of sinister posts, when I came to our beloved lauren's post (I would vote for you if I was allowed to vote twice) about that nasty boy. That's quite a sweet story, I think. Anyhow, it made me think, how you get surprises, but if you're careful, you won't get many. What I'm saying is I don't get many surprises, because I never give anyone the opportunity. This is because some surprises are not so nice, but then, some are nice. Lauren was cursed and blessed with both. I am only telling you this because I think it is ironic that I should get a surprise just as I was thinking about this. MY HIFI BROKE, MY HIFI BROKE I turned the computer off, and went upstairs. I looked at my hifi. The backlight was on, but there was no information on the display. I pressed some buttons. Nothing happened. The power button didn't even work. I thought "fuck". Now my hifi is useless. No amount of bashing will make it work. MY HIFI BROKE You might think this is bad, since I can't listen to any music (not even B&S). But really it's good, because it forces me to buy a new hi-fi. The old one was definitely very bad anyway. I might have to wait a bit to save up enough, but it shouldn't be long. Hurrah. I'M GETTING A NEW HIFI, I'M GETTING A NEW HIFI YAY. HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY There's lot's more I want to tell you but that can wait for another post. I'M GETTING A NEW HIFI. Please forgive me, I have to go and jump up and down a bit. -- James Thorniley +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
