I took the list's advice and went back and re-read Franny and Zooey over the weekend and I agree that Franny is much better than I initally gave it credit for. It made much more sense and seemed infinitely more clever this time around so I apologize for spewing such nonsense earlier. Please have pity on humble soul and give me a good thwacking when next we meet... On an more "sinister" note: I woke up with "hat head" today...is this possible? Now, I'm used to waking up looking like an early 70's Rod Stewart or a Heronimous Bosch painting brought to life with my hair appearing to explode off my scalp, but this is new beast entirely. I look as though I was wearing a hat all night as there are clear indentations. Either than or someone saddled my cranium and rode roughshod on me whilst I slept like a babe. I'm not one to go adventuring in my sleep, but I don't know...has this happened to anyone else? I think I'll have to start sleeping with one eye open. Boo to the business world, and sorry for the Devo line as the subject but I've been spinning their greatest hits recently and I think its top notch! Steve C. PS- I finally got off my arse and picked up the Gentle Waves and Looper records and I love them both. I like Looper a bit more I think, but Isobel's voice came out soooo beautiful...I cry to think of it. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
