Sinister: laudry room etiquitte and jewish boys that my 'rents want me to marry
Paul Rudd is a doll and oh so sweet. I've played with him on the phone. you probably do know him but don't remember, he was the brother of cher in clueless and the gay boy in object of my affection with jennifer aniston. He tried to convince me that I should go see every movie with tony randall , erm, I mean tony curtis. - I think. it's really late. and to have some belle and seb more content - it's interesting to see what people compare other artists to, for instance, on Momus' little red song book, there is a little sticker, saying if you like this artist, try: and they have belle and sebastian on there, as well, hefner have been compared to belle and sebastian mixed with pavement (I decree they're more like neutral milk hotel's half-sibling but I digress). and oh, I got into a fight on the uk-indie list about belle and sebastian. ooh, kitty fell. ciao! -teri http://hampshire.edu/~tdzF94/ - Inspired by the writings of the eighteeth century Venetian gambler, eroticist and spy.

so on sunday i was doing my laundry, after a fairly prolonged absence due to business and a lack of desire to hang out in the laundry room. which i ended up doing. so while i was leaning against the washer, waiting another washer which i could pounce on, i looked around. the decaying condom machine (now honestly, who wants to get their birth control from a machine that looks like it was put up around the '50s and has survived numerous floods, but only just barely) to the bulletin board, sponsored by interview magazine. next to a sexy photo of an actor named paul rudd, who i don't think i know, but may as he was looking so sexy he managed to cover his face, there was a quote wherein he said something along the lines of, "you can be masculine if you watch john wayne movies or masculine if you listen to belle and sebastian. and i do both." aside from the lack of proper grammar or anything, i was surprised. i mean, the magazien chose to quote this line, assuming college students would recognize b&s almost as easily as john wayne. then i was in a bookstore today, looking at a copy of the acid house. as i was reading the back, where they had the credits and whatnot, some of the bands from the album were named. belle and sebastian were named fourth, before primal scream. at first i was glad, but is it wrong to feel a little sad? i loved having something beautiful for myself, something that i could share with a few people and wonder about. the band certainly haven't been corrupted or anything, but there's something wonderful about stuart murdoch coming to mailing list picnics, and having a group of people who know a band and can share it's name amongst themselves like a secret handshake. i don't mean to offend the new people, you all are probably quite easily as lovely as any other listees i've met. but something about the first few is the sort of thing that probably won't happen again. do i make sense? maybe it's all the work and the grey day, i don't know. time for bed.
