Sinister: Opening lines, and NO not in *that* way!!!!
hey hey! me and alistar, ok, well, alistar had a good idea to extend onto this favourite book things. this would be, whats the best opeinng line from a novel? We haev The Bell Jar with: "It was a queer sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbers and I didn't know what I was doing in New York" OR! L'etranger avec "Aujourd'hui maman est morte." Has anyone else got any good lines? Please do tell 'cos we'd like that a lot cos we're like that really and...oooh....just go on! We could have a top ten chart run down like wot old Top of The Pops with Smashie and nicy used to do! I'M GOING NOW BYE!!!!!!! Yours faithfully, the beautiful only slightly homicidal Sarah "Sounds off the wall I know, but consider this. If you take the complete musical output of a generation, the whole damn lot, then don't you have something? A kind of soul perhaps. The soul of a generation. I mean, it's in there in the music. We all know it's in the music, somewhere, right. Anybody who's ever really listened knows it's there. Somewhere." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
