Sinister: Like a velvet glove cast in iron
Blimey, you make a short observation about a foreign language and the next thing you know everyone's talking about old aeroplanes. And thats why the sinister list is grate. Steven Kado said: "discuss: comics. now!" OK I wouldn't describe Dan Clowes as an overdone bozo though I admit most of his stuff (like early 8balls) is hard to come by in the sticks areas of englishland. Ghost World is one of my favourite graphic novels -like- ever man. Lout Rampage is worth a look especially if you're into Jack T Chick spoofs and repulsive artwork. He's not as funny as Peter Bagge though. Someone nice whose name I can't remember asked whether Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms was actually full of fine china crockery. It isn't. It does have fairly civilised bouncers and improved toilets but it's your usual Church of St. Lamaq small venue. Having the Deladgos and Clearlake there should improve things immeasurably though. It's gonna be difficult to do a digital painting of B&S on Top of the Pops since I never saw it. I might just use some amazing photomanipulation software to put B&S on TOTP back in its 60s glory days. And have Jimmy Saville attacking Struan instead of a gorilla. Disturbing thought. I think I should go too. Rob ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

actually there's enough room for about four of her in my body... Dave Moore said: The other day Ally (McBeal, not 96) exclaimed: "I gave him Carsmile!" Good to see the subliminal advertising is starting to work, only a year and a half after the band split. If for any reason anyone has recorded the episode where this appears and could get me a sample of her saying it, I would be eternally GRATE-ful, as I am a very sad man. I realise this is gebre-highly unlikely, but hey, that's why i love the world of sinister. All we need now is a scene in Friends where they have a discussion about a PAINTING COMPETITION! Entries are, at the moment, a little thin on the ground, but i guess you're all just adding your finishing touches, AREN'T YOU?? (send them to carsmilesteve@yahoo.com when they are ready) Oh and if you don't tell me who you are, anonymous-entry-person, it stands to reason that you can't win, even if your picture is lovely, which it is :) And don't worry if you didn't actually see B&S on TOTP, the judging will be on imagination and creative flair, rather than accuracy, innit. I purposefully didn't buy kid a yesterday as only very special albums deserve to be bought on the first day of release, and although i almost certainly will buy it at some point in the near future (apparently wh smiths have it for a tenner), i didn't think it was special enough having seen them in their GRATE big tent last week. The tent was very good, but otherwise it was a little lacking in melody from my narrow, reactionary point of view. Two questions to finish with: who's going to scalaramalalanarina on saturday? what's a good digital camera to buy (and where's a good place to buy one)? xoxo CarsmileSteve +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
