*---* HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINISTER BABIES *---* dear people, I hope you're all good and rested from your little adventures,i'm not so bitter now...it really just school you see (and no,no scottish or welsh exchange students) it's kind of pain..it's your last year,you really just want to have fun,but then,this is the year that counts,so you actually have to learn...i don't exactly have the most marvellous teachers..our new math teacher gives you a detention for CHEWING GUM! and this other one makes you bend over to see if you're skirt is too short.. but try complaining about this to parents! they will just go 'Excuse me? I had nuns as teachers! I was beaten for breathing too loudly!' or.. 'yes i remember one time we all made a plan to drop our books at the same time! oh yes, WE were the rebels!' do any of you want some zuchinni? it just keeps growing and growing..we have 500 pounds of zuchinni bread! so did stuart do anything different on stage? did he smile sheepishly and go 'i'd like to thank you all for coming out tonight!' and rip his shirt off? did any of you throw underwear at him,you know..just as a joke.. talking about titles and words n googly stuff: i like the title of the boy with the arab strap,it's sort of lost the original 'ooh,he's so naughty' meaning tho,i think i would still prefer something a little more..belle and sebastian..well you KNOW!(i mean it's good to be different,but sometimes it's just for the sake of being different? i don't know) all those clever little lines they can come up with,a littlre more dreamy and creative maybe.. i'm starting to really like 'simple things'(is stuart singing 'to make a young boy sigh' in there?? so lovely!!) now..but it's too short..it kind of deprives you,it's good and then it just ends..but it doesn't seem like it should end so soon MORE MORE MORE ... i was looking at this painting in an ad for the Glasgow Art Fair, of this boy with those thick black glasses and there are daisies..it's a really nice picture,i didn't notice it at first,but now i keep having to look at it,it seems to me it would've made a perfect b&s cover art...(i remember walking with Arctic Woman once,and we were looking at some of the art displays from the school,and i think the topic was a self-portrait and one of them was a little clay figure all huddled up in a shoe-box, Arctic Woman thought that if stuart murdoch was in that art class,that would be his,so maybe it is good they take a stranger approach with titles instead of the dancing with kittens in the sunshine all the time etc) chickfactor (i know i know,it's a zine) it is sort of a funny word with them..you know how them boys will be like 'aww man,i got the job,got the pimpmobile! all i need now is a girl!' that's what it reminds me of..like he is missing the 'chick' factor,man. nighty night little kittens, genevieve xoxo +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
