Hey Sinister, 2 posts in one week from an eternal lurker? You KNOW it's big news! First of all, I just wanted to thank everyone on the list for all the lovely thoughts throughout the last week. It's helped more than you know. And love and condolences to anyone who lost someone last week. And extra deep sympathy to Kirsten, who lost her friend Dan. I've been there, babe. Keep your head up. Secondly, I want to send big wet sloppy kisses to the mighty Belle & Sebastian for their very wonderful show in Seattle last Friday. I know it's been said before, but I think it bears repeating: that Stuart is quite the dancer, isn't he? And what a ridiculously good-looking bunch they are! Big ups to them for the moment of silence, and for their excellent version of "Turn Turn Turn". A very appropriate and tasteful tribute. And "Crosstown Traffic"?!? FANTASTIC! You all haven't lived unless you've seen Stevie rockin' a Hendrix solo on his knees. So again, big thanks to the band for a much-needed respite from the horror of last week. It was grrrreat! Oh, and Jonathon Richman is a god among men, and I feel sorry for anyone who thinks otherwise. Lastly, thanks to Rinaldo for organizing the sinister meet up. I just wished more people had shown up (yes, I'm talking to YOU, William Harris!). But it was great to finally meet some other sinisters in real life, especially the lovely Elise of beautiful Madison, WI! Don't worry, dear, the set list will be in the mail tomorrow! I just hope me & my weird friends didn't scare you off. Seriously, Seattle is awesome, and you should definitely think about relocating. We're a friendly people, really! So, all in all, I good time was had by all. Well worth the wait. I'm just sorry I didn't get to take Stuart to a Mariners game. Oh well, maybe next time. Off like a prom dress, Jen __________________________________________________ Terrorist Attacks on U.S. - How can you help?
