Hey sinistees, So we're running up to the 5th birthday of Sinister. It is soothing to see the list to be suitably filled with a pleasant air of listalgia. I went into my drawer last night too and found a nice, though badly taken polaroid. The picture was taken on a hot lazy summer's day, seemingly of an off-licence in Camden Town. There was a calender inside the off-licence, on it it read 15th July, 2000 - the same day as the first sinister picnic I'd attended. I was outside, talking to a boy and a girl, the boy was wearing a "Moog" synthesiser T-Shirt, and the girl was carrying a bag, and inside the bag was some "Party Rings", and she had a DYNO sticker on her handbag with her name etched on it. The girl was very pretty and the boy had very nice boobs. I still can't really believe it's been over two years. I can still remember it just like yesterday, so many things have happened since, people come and gone, jobs lost and found, drinks bought and drunk and spilt and/or stolen, heart broken, and broken, but still that great big bloody hill is still there. And Honey still rocks. She rocked my socks especially today for some reason. Liz Daplyn has a lot more class than I. Whilst she was indulging in a Henry Wood Promenade concert on the BBC, I was watching a documentary on the girl who did "The World's Biggest Gang Bang", involving 251 men in 10 hours, on Channel 4. It was such a sad story too, she had all kinds of issues and all of these happened without even her mum knowing. I can't remember the point of telling you this was, I guess my mum doesn't know that I'm on some Internet list. No 251 girls in 10 hour actions yet though. Any volunteers? Not from Big Stu though.. he's too big for comfort. I really should buy a new pair of Red Knickers too for this year's Red Knicker Day, since the pair I had, two years ago, are now looking decidedly brown. A big contributing factor to having brown pants could have been the fact that last night, I played DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION EUROMIX T!W!O! for the first time, and it was the dog's Sandras. I got to dance to Duran Duran, for God's sake. And.. Steps... One day DDR will have Belle & Sebastian on it, I tell you, and I'll be able to tell you or about it on sinister, if Sinister will still be here. I hope so. Traditions, revolutions and Red Bulls Ken P.S.: Wouldn't it be nice if on the 5th Birthday of Sinister the band will release the clues of the Treasure Hunt? Surely Neil Robertson is dying to, I mean, the words "Treasure Hunt" even rhyme with his favourite word. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
