Hello sweet listees, I've not finished reading all your messages, but among the thousands of posts received from Sinister, this one is by Kin :
What has happened to our darling resident French wit, Philippe? I guess he must be really busy earning the title of "Doctor Philippe". But I and I'm sure many others do miss his surreal and hilarious postings. Come back to us, Philippe!
Philippe still has got his L and his 2 P's, but he has to wait a few more weeks before being called Doctor Philippe (is sounds like a DJ name, isn't it ?). Kin, I have received your tapes, and I'm doing the best that I can to send you mine as quick as possible. Sorry for the delay. Be sure that it has nothing to do with the defeat of the french rugby team against Australia. For Jim and the american listees : I've just sent a new copy of the worlwide known black session (it seems that the first one that I sent before is lost between France and Los Angeles). That's really strange, because Newt Gingrich told me that he got his copy and he really likes it (now he has got plenty of time to listen to it, and his doctor told him that cool music was good for his nerves). For the supporters from Arsenal: I am really sorry, I am not responsible for the defeat against Lens. I've read the book by Nick Hornby (Fever Pitch) and I do love the gunners. At least I like the french players and the manager... To Stuart Murdoch : my friend Lauren wants to mary you, so please email me privately in order to arrange this affair. Lauren is a beautiful girl, she can speak french and German perfectly (and english of course), and she likes my noddles with the roquefort sauce, which proves that she is really the most perfect girl a boy can imagine. By the way, I wish to mary Isobel. So, if you can help me, please don't hesitate... Has averyone read Lauren's translation of my review of the black session on the Bernard Lenoir's web ? Stuart asks who wants to be on the video for dirty dream : I WANT !! You don't need to pay me for that. Alain Delon was chosen by Morrissey to be on the sleeve for The Queen Is Dead, so the less that i can do is to be on a belle and sebastian video. I am always very brilliant and tasty on videos. Has anyone ever watched the video of my holidays in Grece 4 years ago, you know, the famous sequence when I am running completely naked on this lovely beach of the Hydra Island ? Coming back to the L and P's story, I think that I have to become more openminded. I was used to put the shame on each listee who wrote my name wrongly (Phillip, Phillippe, Filip, Pheelip...), but I have to tell you that two emeritus members of Belle & Sebastian chose to call me "Phillipe". Yes, Isobel and Stuart David both prefer calling me Philippe, and it really makes my day! So, I do declare that two spellings will be accepted now : Philippe, and Phillipe. I was told that people from the marketing division were releasing the Beatles' White Album again, because it is supposed to be the 30th anniversary. I have never heard about this band, the Beatles. I don't think they are well known apart from Britain. Mayby a little in the US, but I am not sure. Is it a good band ? My friends don't understand why I am staying in my car, completely frozen on the parking lot besides my laboratory every morning. But I can't imagine switching off my belle&sebastian tape before the end the songs! My monkey tells me "Say hello to the listees", so : Hello listees !! A bientot, Philippe-Phillipe +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
