Sinister: skin-calming moisture mask
this winter weather really does a number on my skin, all dry outside and stale air and heating inside. the clinique skin-calming moisture mask is the only thing that saves me from being all red and chapped. a pleasant thought, i know, but it is necessary if i am to be appearing the the new belle and sebastian video (ha, that'll teach you to send open invitations...). i have in mind a rollergirl styled character, lots of bright glimmery eye shadow and hot pants and rollerskates. i could also tow a dog on wheels. i'd like to apologize for the hullabaloo that was caused by my ahren scandal. i really had no idea that it would prompt so many responses and get listies biting rabidly. and thanks to those of you who mailed me your opinions privately, preserving the non-confrontational tone of the list. i'm thrilled by this recent influx of jokes appearing on the list: my personal favourite is Q: What colour is a hiccup? A: Burple. cute, a little filthy, and memorable. has anything been said about the new ep, as to whether or not matador will be releasing it simultaneously in canada? i'm sure it's been said before, and if it has you don't have to answer me as i'm sure i'll find it. and now (da-dummmmm!), for your viewing pleasure, i will write you all a poem. be kind to the moose for his morals are loose he is likely to kill on a whim if you're cruel to your cat or say "i'll eat my hat" these things rouse the murderer in him if you jump on your bed he'll chew off your head (polished off with a side dish of fries) he'll do just the same to any young dame who's as bold as to tell him a lie an so, my dear friend be ye strong, do not bend when they say "he's a harmless creature" for you and i know his deceit will not show until in his supper you feature. i am now going to make some sort of indian brown rice curry thing. i've been craving curry lately in the worst way...i've also been having dreams about kentucky fried chicken, but that's neither here nor there. although if you can tell me what they mean, i'll write a poem about you. oodles of poodles, jessicaxo

I asked Katrina this a while back, and she said it would NOT be released in Canada, or North America for that matter. What would be happening is MAtador would get a few copies that they would probably sell through their own stores. Canada will have to import copies directly from Jeepster in the UK. I'm not sure if this was the deal with the other EPs from last year. Just to be sure, I ordered a copy from Jeepster (along with an IYFS t-shirt... anxiously awaiting the mail...), though it'll probably be available at the usual outlets (Penguin, HMV-333) just after release for $15 or so. I just wanted mail from overseas... On a like topic, I've a question about the various editions of IYFS. Are the copies in the US being distributed by Matador being pressed by Matador? That is, the booklets have Matador logos, the CDs are hecho in America, etc? Cause Canada still seems to be getting only the Jeepster editions, and they're freaking expensive... $30 for IYFS, anyone? It'd make more sense to me for CAnadian outlets to get Matador editions from the US, thus shaving about $5-$8 off the sticker price... but that's just me. I've already got a copy, but I'm thinking about all those potential B&S fans who are turned away by the high sticker price... I know I was for the longest time - I wanted the record but kept looking for a cheaper price. Took me a year, but I got mine for $12 after trading in a bunch of CDs and racking up about $13 in credit... Once again, it seems Canadians are getting the short end of the proverbial B&S stick... Yes, I'm still sore about the cancelled concert... And thanks to everyone who helped out with the Omar Sharif trivia - I rocked that one. Apologies again for the wildly off-topic post, won't be happening again. I'll try to economize B&S bandwidth in the future. And as for the 'Dirty Dream #2' video, I vote for a Puff Daddy-esque clip with helicopters, speedboats and gunplay. Lots of gunplay. I think Isobel would look wicked brandishing a Glock. -- Frank Yang Belle & Sebastian are gettin' jiggy wit' it.
