101 Reasons Why I Love Neil Robertson 1. He was the first person I ever heard kick about the phrase of having "the fucking horn." He was using it in reference to a song and so I mistakenly thought it might me to have a headache. (It made sense to me!) Thankfully, I asked for clarification or else I could see poor American me bumbling that British slang quite horrifically. It reminded me of the first time I heard the term "knackered." Since I wasn't familiar with it, I thought the boy was asking me if I was NAKED. For a second I thought foreign boys really were a lot more fun than their American counterparts. I should have known better. 2. For his birthday, he *gave away* a copy of Storytelling on vinyl. So kind. 3. He regularly showers people with flurries of "fuck you." Again, so kind. Of course, Neily boy, but you'll have to buy me dinner first*. 4. He told others I gave him porn for his birthday. 5. He'll forgive me that I didn't really give him porn for his birthday 6. He'll forgive me that I'm not going to finish this list in fear of getting a cramp in my pink if I really do list all the reasons to love him. This might be the shortest Sinister post I've ever sent but my thoughts aren't congealing enough to be able to write anything coherent. I'm currently in the land of Milk & Cookies (Utah) and shall be heading to either Aspen Colorado or Wyoming ("Q: Can you explain why Wyoming advertises that it is "Like No Place on Earth"? A: Because the rest of Earth wanted to make it clear Wyoming was an anomaly.") for hiking/camping/introducing my skin to the outdoors again and hoping it doesn't scream in resistance. We were going to head down south to Arizona but I vaguely remember the July Fourth week of 99. I posted to Sinister about it and said something to the effect of: Arizona is lovely this time of year - especially if you're planning a trip to the core of the sun and want to acclimate yourself to the heat first. I think I'll head north this time. Thanks to Breamsy Boy (Why has no one ever mentioned that he looks exactly like Stevie Jackson? Hello - eerie resemblance!) - I now have copies of Storytelling on CD and Vinyl. Fuck This Shit, Big John Shafts... Maybe foreign boys are more fun - Laura *a warped version of my favorite line from Ghost World _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
