Hiya, I think everyone on this list owes a big round of thank-you's to the list manager, Paul aka Honey. In fact, I was just discussing with someone not an hour ago the woes of the indiepop list, and how it would be so much nicer if the person who ran it tried to make it more like the B&S list. Anyway, thank you Honey! Everyone should try to thank Honey! BUT, it wouldn't do just to write to the list and say nothing but thank you. Here are some examples of clever ways of working a thank-you into your post. 1. "I'm so excited, I just bought my ticket. Oh and thanks Honey!" 2. "Ouch! I just dropped a jug of brownish liquid on my foot. It hurts immenseley, and I wanted to write an ink polaroid about it. But first: Thank you Honey!" 3. "Canada good, Scotland bad. Smiths good, Morrissey bad. Adjectives good, articles bad. Honey good, Mick bad." and finally... 4. "The top ten things my *THANK YOU HONEY* cat has vomitted on in the past week, annotated with the corresponding action a newt would have taken: #1: The hallway..." Number 4 is kinda subliminal, eh? /"\_/"\_/"\ Mick McMick - mick@indiepop.com - ICQ#5056758 \ / Sandcastle Records - sandcastlerecords@indiepop.com | | Sandcastle Homepage - http://indiepop.com/sandcastle/ | | | | "Everyone has their own cup of tea. | | Some just happen to like a lot of sugar in it!" | | - Me! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
