Sinister: Handbags at twenty paces
Jesus! Is there too much caffine in the water today, or something? I've never seen so much bitching on this list! First of all, Katrina House wrote:
pray tell stephen, what exciting publications (besides teletext) do you write for?
then, darling northy wrote:
This list stinks GOODBYE FOR EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER UNSUBSCRIBED
and to top it all off, Tag had a go at me, saying
Isn't technology wonderful? Before I had email access, the indescribably sexy world of yet another eligible young bachelor, Rod (Rod by name, ROD by nature) Begbie, was just the stuff of a madman's dreams. As he himself says:
He's like a Bill Gates without a Microsoft
Fucks sake, people. Hey Honey! Any chance you can bring back that "Happy Bunnies" tagline, cause since you've changed it, things have become pish. For the record, the e-mail Tag was bitching about was when I tried anagramming his signature and got "Robert LL McTaggart". When I e-mailed him, I didn't actually know what his real name was -- all I knew was the sign-off "Tag". My e-mail was asking if my anagram was his real name. I never got a private reply from him, just a heap of abuse to the list. FWIW, I have no idea why "Tag" has such animosity towards me. I post no more and no less shite than most. Hey Tag! If you *do* have a problem with what I post, then kill-file me. Otherwise, quit gurning. I hope you catch a virus from the enemies in Star Trek: ATTRACT BORG GERM! Now onto flufflier topics: First of all, does anyone else find that jon.g's RealAudio file "jumps" at 4m42s, or is it just my copy? On Tue, 24 Mar 1998, Sarah wrote:

I've just rediscovered Radiator, after not playing it much last year. Fuck me! It's brilliant! I raked it out after seeing Demons played on that NME Brat show in January, and it's been in my CD player since. Well up to the standards of Fuzzy Logic. Finally, I've just put up a beta of my CD Database browser on my website. If you go to http://www.begbie.com/local-cgi-bin/cds.pl you can browse through the CD Database from my CD-ROM player (CD Wizzard -- highly recommended if you've got a PC) Luv & snogs to you all! Rod.

Lord, I didn't know I had that much of an effect on you all. OK, but I won't put it back until you all behave - I've been guilty of being a grumpy sod recently too here so I'm giving it all up for Lent, and apologies to all I've been rude to. I will be sweetness and light - erm, unless someone shows they haven't read the FAQ, or does some serious slagging :) The only reason to be nasty on this list is if you are the list manager and someone's wrecking it. Shit, that should be in the FAQ as well. Let's start with a clean sheet ok? Mummy's putting her foot down. You can be as rude as you want to someone privately but don't you dare on the list. Be nice or be gone. Honey xxx P.S. Addition to the FAQ - hope it's OK with Andrew but then he's away just now haha: 19. Please can I have a tape of Tigermilk / some sessions? You can imagine this is such a common question that it's probably the most frequently asked one on the list. Andrew Dean has offered to try and take these requests off the list by setting up a dating agency - if you mail him your request he will try and match you up with someone reasonably local who has offered to do it for people. In return please volunteer to do some taping for someone else - tell Andrew. You can reach Andrew at koogydelbbog@yahoo.com - please mail Andrew rather than the list unless you get no response. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Rod Begbie expressed some concern at the way his emails to the list were being treated. He may have even had some valid reasons. But then he wrote:
