....civil wars will linger on inside of me. No B&S dreams to report, but even better: a LIST dream. I dreamt for some reason that i went into McDonalds (something i never do-- really) and they were serving Ribena. They had to go into a special room in back to get it. Since i've never had Ribena, or even heard of it before Sinister, i think this qualifies as a List Dream. And Sophie has promised me a crate of it in exchange for suspicous minds. A fair trade. And: Brier is headed for Europe this summer, so tell them to widen the sidewalks and change some of the laws for my impending arrival. Can i call a Sinister Meet-up in Paris in July? We could meet at Jim Morrison's place (down the block from Oscar Wilde). I know Paris like the back of my wrist, but if anyone knows anything about Venice, do tell. And a special "welcome to the neighborhood" goes out to new ListVamp Jessica and her fetish for Pickles. Prince Jason, have you picked up on this yet??? It's ironic; I had the boo, she had the chronic, the Lakers beat the Supersonics. Velocity Girl: Glad you got the package. Hope it didn't disappoint. There was a mix CD that missed the boat, but it's coming together. ListDom: No, it certainly is NOT acceptable to be seen reading Bukowski in public. Especially not in a parked car in front of the Junior High at 2:30 in the afternoon. Trust me. You won't be able to explain your way out. And I'm sure a thousand listees have already reminded you that it was Schroder who tinkled those ebony & ivories while Lucy made furtive passes at him. Linus never played anything but himself, under that blanket. But he was always my favorite anyway. Brier-sized props to: *Blake, for reminding me of the gorgeous MagFields song "When You're Old & Lonely" which he quoted on his website. ("When you're old and lonely you will wish you'd married me") *Jason A., for turning me on to "T-Shirt Weather" by the Lucksmiths. A little James-y, but appropriate this week in Santa Barbara with our summer now arrived in March. A perfect b-side to "I Know Where The Summer Goes" which rides at the top of my playlist as i scour the streets on my Vespa, searching for her green battleship with the license plate beginning "4FER". *The Pickle Prince for continuing to post, despite the fact that everything he writes inspires a degree of backlash. We are a sensitive lot, yes? (Peter: I read it as a humorous tangent on your "sacred" mistype, not a put-down. No one but him noticed it anyway and the beauty of your post was not lost). In my backpack are poems to her, in a bright orange folder I seem to sleep so well when her chin's on my shoulder. That's all for me. It was a good day. ~Brier +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
