well, after a long time being on this list, and after having completed 97% of my degree, i've decided to post my second message in about a year and a half or so. i *should* have posted more over the time spent on this list, but i've been really busy doing work and well... okay, i'm really really shy and had/have nothing interesting to say, but for my last two weeks of free internet access, i want to use it as much as possible. jason, you're from cumbernauld, i'm from uddingston, home of the world famous tunnocks biscuit factory (yes, that's right kids, the producers of the world famous teacakes, caramel wafers, caramel logs and the snowballs). it may not be cumbernauld, but it's still part of north lanarkshire, so i'll give you this piece of advise from one north lanarkshire person to another: you may *claim* to be the original owner of a broken heart but trust me you're definitely not. if anybody takes the pish or says stuff to make you feel down, respond with the classic "two fingers up to you my friend" and ignore them. somebody will come along and mend your broken heart. it happened to me, until she broke it again, and i've yet to recover from it, but i have faith that somebody else will appear and fix it gain. seek and ye shall find, as it says in the bible or somewhere else, or something like that. well kiddies, not long now until the <ironic> best band in the entire world ever, the band that music was invented for, o***s </ironic> release another album which will no doubt bore me to death yet again. when that album is released, we have the choice of either 1. buying/copying/stealing (not that i'm suggesting you copy the album, or steal it. no that is illegal. actually, buying it should be made illegal as well) their new album, and go around feeling "mad fer it" and acting like you're the dogs jiggily bits. 2. not buying it, not caring about o***s, and suffering endless abuse from the sheep...i mean the o***s fans for not liking the <ironic> greatest band of all time, </ironic> and instead listening to "shite" unimportant music. anyway i have to admit i once liked o***s, up until they released their second album which i though was one of the most uninteresting albums i had listened to ever. and then one day i heard belle and sebastian on mark radcliffe's radio show, and thay changed my life. they were what i had been waiting for. a group who i could "relate" to, and who gave me music which did not make me feel better than everybody else. for me, belle and sebastian produce music for people who want to listen to it, and not listen to it becasause it's "fashionable". anyway, i've rambled on for long enough, and i'm feeling very very drunk at the moment, and i doubt any of this message makes much sense, so i'd better go and bore some of my friends now. finally a quick hello to roderick alexander begbie. i hope your life after hairy-twat university has been enjoyable. i'll tell you this for free, the hwcee newsgroups haven't been the same since you left. bye kids, take care, and i hope to post another message soon. -iain *** What are you gonna do after the tiger's gone? *** -this e-mail has been brought to you by anderson communications (c)1999 anderson quality product (c)1991 +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
