hey list! woooo! yeah! ready?!? GEOGRAPHY Pete Ramsdale (did i get that right?) wrote this
In terms of sheer geography, it rests in the back right-hand corner of my living room, somewhere between TBWTAS and "Mellow Gold", below my cd single collection, but above the "c" to "e" section of the rest of my albums. I think that gives us a fair idea of everything, really.
which i thought was great. maybe if we all talk about where we put our belle and sebastian records when they aren't being played then the next magazine to bring sinsiter into its article on our band can mention that the fans gather in cafes to ask eachother 'where do you put your belle and sebastian?" and we can have all them journalist fuckers fooled! WILL I HAVE MY REVENGE? should i buy the revenge album? peter hook is on it. that augers well for it. also in revenge: so friends and i were having a few drinks at my place and listening to some new records and then we were going to go to a party. so as we were leaving this fabulous friend i've known for 6 years and would trust as far as the sky asks if he could leave his bag at my house, since the party is fairly near by and its not nice to haul bags around everywhere is it? so i said yes, why not....simple enough. so then. we go to this party, and its slow and kind of disappointing. but they're playing the make up. which is thrilling. so once the make up is no longer enough a group of us decide to check out this new party night thing called 'stars of track and field' which was at the rancho relaxo. but the friend who left the bag at my house announced his intentions to go home and said that he couldn't deal with life without his bag. so i gave him the keys to my house and told him that he could meet me at track and field (which would be on his way home) and give me the keys. so it takes all of 11.4 minutes to walk from the party to my house and then maybe 20 minutes maximum to get to rancho relaxo where i woudl be. so there i was at the rancho, where things were lame despite the auspicious name. and no sign of my keys. none. so i waited for an hour, lame-ness happened. and i got mad. so then i called this friend's cel phone and his parent's house and incase he was still at my house i called there too....and nothing. so i walked back to my house with some friends who were nice enough to accompany me, and found it locked and such as i had left it. then one of these nice friends offered to let me sleep at his place so i accepted and walked off that way. then. when we got to his house i called the key and bag friend and he answered his phone...it was hours later, i had intended to be in bed a few hours ago, and i was tired and cranky and mad...and he answers, and hes at a bar, which is near to the rancho....in fact the rancho is on the way to this bar...and he's been there the whole night since leaving my company. so he could have, on his way there dropped off the keys with me...but he didn't. i mean, i just don't know what to think when someone you've known for years behaves in such an erratic and foolish way, which is so incredibly out of character for him too.... grrr. but on my way home to meet this 'friend' i found this empty bottle of anti-freeze that some poor unfortunates had been drinking, and since it looked sort of like a small gas can and was opaque, i came to meet him waving it around and yelling 'i'm going to set you on fire!' but soon i just gave up because i was looking silly and all i wanted was my keys and to go to bed. HEY! Y'KNOW WHAT'S FUNNY? everyone keeps talking about the new album as FYHC which looks soo much like FYC to me which doesn't spell 'fold your child' to me but instead spells 'fine young cannibals' who i think are a fabulous band and should have a rennaissance coming up soon. but then its kind of funny, because everyone is really talking about belle and sebastian, but i keep imagining them talking about FYC instead. tee hee. HOT IRON! i'm low on iron. and apperantly soy makes men go dotty. since i've been raised on soy milk all my life i'm no doubt half way to being a complete wash out. blech. and then, burried in a sentence about surrealism from Arantxa Sanz:
About Fraulein Dagmar Vroom's mum assesment method: can one claim automatic writing ?Surrealism is a bit demode,but don't know if enough to make a convincing comeback.And I found ironing a much more necessary touch on a man too nowadays,very rare occasion is to greet a 20something male with no creases and no sarcasm to cover that sign of laziness instead.
yes, surrealism is definitely had its day. as with people keeping their genitals inside their clothes i'm into people keeping their subconscious inside their heads. why go letting it leak out into ghastly paintings that people who are very impressed by pink floyd can hang prints of on their walls? and also ironing. i spend a good 10-14 minutes ironing pants and such before i go out to nice things (grocery shopping is not worth ironing for, which is where my mum and i differ) just to make sure that all the lines are nice and 'sharp'. really, i mean, why are so many people so adverse to ironing? its not so bad is it. and then your pants become fantastic and everyone goes oooh ahhh. yeah! ironing and irony are unrelated by the way. MY NEW BELT i have this new belt and like it alot. its electric blue and really thin, and it sort of looks like a ribon and has this weird very faint red stiching running along it. and these quick release clips for easy 'belt-on' 'belt-off' action! yes! now i can be in and out of my pants faster than a jack rabbit! not that i'm ever out of my pants for very long. oh, i just realized that trousers and pants are different things in the UK. well. too bad for you. even slacks are pants to us here in north america. so there. steve +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
