(obviously) Is anyone other than me surprised that people are buying original copies of Tigermilk? Did the value not decrease with the reissue of Tigermilk? Alasdair quoted someone as saying Does anyone else know of rock'n'roll animals who
have settled down to get proper jobs?
one of the members of the Jam is a furniture restorer, i think. And Poly Styrene of X-Ray Specs was a Hari Krishna last i heard. I don't know if you consider handing out flowers in airports a proper job or not, but it's interesting trivia either way. alasdair also said You know, temporary insanity makes for excellent posts. If only I could write things like this. Sigh. Complete insanity, on the other hand, makes for very boring posts, judging from the content of my missives to sinister. INTELLECTUAL PART Does anyone else feel that Descartes eliminated all options but solipsism when he defined the basic starting point of philosophy as "Cogito, Ergo sum"? (i think therefore i am) i didn't think so.

Hi! Thanks to those all who seemed interested in the question : Is NV's influence remarkable enough in 90's pop?I have decided finally to focus my own presentation,which will be saved on floppy disk to the future generations in case some Media student could be in need of one,on their policy of 'auteurism' which implies a degree of 'amateurism' or at least of careful manouvres when dealing with the establishment and the Kapital,represented by producers,companies and labels.Which is Struan's confessed treat. I had lots of lovely golden dreams about holidays and some Sinister party,I believe.No many memories left in the morning.I was reading for first time 'The BFG' before fallen asleep and no doubt they were brought by him.He speaks the English langwitch as I do,more or less,so sure he is my friend. Bertrand wondered how KOOL our boys are.There is a college in Wales where courses on 'being cool' will start next academic year,maybe Struan is trying to get a place in one of those,and his references about student life were meaning his worries on how he will fit with all these sheep around and teenagers venerating the rock where Rick's bones where seen for last time as the Kaaba.I guess that with independence in their minds,Welshmen (and women) have regarded coolness as a critical factor to revitalise their economy.Probably A-levels in sassiness and street cred will be introduced soon. Pavement,sorry,Stephen Malkmus is IT.Whatever it is.So he belongs to a different cathegory,he is a 'class act'.He should enter Kensington byelection and slammered the door in front of Portillo.Which so unmistakebly British name has to be pronounced 'Portilo',allegedly,by I refuse.'Portilyo',that's it. If I ever have a band,I would write a letter to Quentin Blake pleading for a cover.Why don't they? xxx Arantxa +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
