1. Lucy Alder alleged that we’re: “all just gagging to dig… out of the cupboard… (yay!)” I am unsure why this should make someone so happy. 2. Mr Farley opined: “[T]he very worst kind of records are those you don't even notice cos they're so utterly inconsequential.” I reckon I’ll have to take issue with that comment. Surely the scale should be drawn on a scale from Terrible to Great and thus “Apathy-inducing” would be the centre pointing, and therefore not the worst type of song. 3. Nothing to report this week. I too went to the Peacock book-launch thingymajig and (contrary to popular opinion [or, rather, the opinion of one sinisterine] we received free bottles of Budweiser. I have to agree with P F: “Rubbish”! 4. I should have some reporting soon (i.e. the lyrics to both Take Your Carriage Clock and Shove It & Big John Shaft). That is, if there is any demand. :) 5. Would anyone like any legal advice? That is, those people who live in Scotland and are having any problems regarding Criminal, Family, Contract, or Constitutional law. I’m also a dab hand at the ‘dismal science’. I believe it was Malthus who earned that monicker for Economics, wasn’t it? Yeh, him and David Ricardo. P F? Anyone? Nick (Dastoor)? Well, I have nothing much to say of any consequence, however if anyone wants to talk or ask me anything I will be more than happy to talk. 6. Shawn & Emily: The guy from the television station hasn’t got back to me, but if I get any news I will let you know. Sorry, for not replying quicker my life has been a little hectic lately (hence, my absence from Sinister. 7. P F: What magazine, journal etc. do you work for? Thank you, Sinister cub reporter: David Howie. PS I was thinking Honey (or list mummy) that since you don’t have a badge to give me, you could give me a nice @missprint.org e-mail address. Perhaps, sinister.reporter@missprint.org? PPS Oh yeh, and I got my tickets for B&S yesterday the 15th and 16th. Anyone want to meet the Sinister junior reporter? Didn't think so. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
