Sinister: Thats one slice with butter and one with marmite...
Dear all, steve peet wrote (and quoteth I do): Has anyone ever just thrown away something they have given over a fair portion of their lives and savings to collecting? I think I spent one solid year liking something, then deciding it was rubbish and finding something else, which means I frequently come across a decent number of one thing in the chaotic minefield that is my room. I am therefore making this decision all the time, and I reckon I will soon decide to live like a space monkey, two identicle sets of clothes, a piece of carpet to sleep on and a bald head. The things I always keep are my childhood action figures, Teenage mutant hero turtles and the incredible thundercats. Oh my. I remember fancying cheetara... You record company employees will sigh when I tell you that having spent precious time downloading and installing winmx I find that it doesn't seem to work. But you should look away *right now*... If anyone who is well-winmx-experienced could tell me what is going on when it says I am in a remote queue (I'm a bit of an internet philistine) I would be bluddy GRATEful. I assumed it meant I was waiting for someone else to finish downloading from there and I was the next in line to use it (it said remote queue 1) but after waiting for ages it never seemed to do anything else. Anyway, enough of these whiney, boring requests... Miss Llew: if they were bent on doing biblical stuff, they could still have chosen something more interesting. I don't suppose you've ever read any Song of Songs...ooh er... Sorry for wasting your time with a boring post, I've just re-read it and it's absolutely dire but now I've written it i'll sodding well post it. Apologies. Tom (who's most recent post in no way deserves the prefix corduroy boy) P.S. The subject line is simply an instruction for how I like my toast (if anyone was planning to send me some). Why oh why do people think that putting marmite on toast permits them to omit the butter on that slice? The marmite and butter are unequally symbiotic, the butter may exist without the marmite but without butter the marmite fails to satisfy. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.

But what's not interesting about Jonathan and David? Its almost a love story (which I find odd, since it is in the BIBLE after all). I think knowing the story makes the lyrics for the song more interesting. BTW, is that Stevie on the cover with the hair, and is it the same boy (Stevie) from the Albanian Steel Beds/Arab Strap poster?
