>"rush of hormones"??  what indeed could have caused such a stir? now i'm
red
>in the face.  *sigh*  can anyone explain why Isobel Campbell's name is on
>the crush list, but  no one else from the band is, what does that mean?
>regardless, i shall vote for her forthwith, even if it will eat away at my
>own ratings.  can i vote for the PHotojenny/Amelia girl?  i WISH she was on
>the list, she did look rather sinister.  never mind.  i'm getting up right
>now and going to find her.
>but  till then...
>osrry it must have slipped my mind to put up the isobel link, i figured it
>would be  easy to get to cos it's on my b/s photo page, but the URL for
>isobel campbell's Wee World of worship is:
>http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Atrium/4967/isobel.html
>and i have it on  good word that the b/g is indeed, a lovely shade of blue
>and not frighteningly shocking pink as i had feared, so all is well.
>now that everyone's slagging The Gate, i'm all psyched for how much i'm
>going to like it, cos i'm the contrary type.  oh i should  really go try to
>fix my liquid audio player so i can hear the damned thing.  jeez i'm slow.
>
>and be reminded when you visit the site of all things Isobel, that i am in
>request of stories, links, poems, thoughts, dirty dreams, and anything you
>can come up with on the dapper lass, i will put it up for all to see.
>Chris Leonard, your poem was lovely!  that's  the sort of thing we like
over
>at IsobelGeek HQ.  students, take note.
>I like rollercoaster ride.

>per carmen "I am A Punk Goddess".....belle and seb are twice as punk as gg
>allin, aren't they? any baby, moron, or dog  can lose control of their
>bodily functions in public.  it takes a real man to wax sentimental about
>quilted jackets and clogs, sing effeminately and wear silver trousers, in
>revolt against the (yes) vicariously claimed "punk" ethic of pre-millenial
>life.  eat your heart out, marilyn manson. i've always believed the true
>punks were the quiet ones nursing affection for all those rejected things.
>anyone can cop a bad attitude, sentimentality is the wave of the
revolution.
>VIVA LA REVOLUCION
>and dont' smack me for calling them twee, i dont' see any necessarily
>exclusionary factor in being both sentimental and sweet, and simultaneously
>"rocking'.   I wouldn't call them wimps though.  it takes an iron
>constitution to be so recklessly gorgeous.

>i woke up this AM witht he sinking feeling that i was late for class again,
>but it didnt' much matter because i felt sick as a dog anyway.  still i am
>guilty as i realized how badlyl i am going to suck this semester as far as
>missing my classes and beign a lardy git, even though i have only 3
classes,
>yes my life is  sad indeed.  my cat jumped up onto my bed and i could feel
>my stress rate lowereing as i patted her silky ears, funny yes? and the
song
>popped into my head, "I left my school i left my job.." and i remembered
>every messes up now and then, and stuart lives in a church, and things can
>be beautiful, and i felt this glorious peace.  so i threw my homework on
the
>fire and went back to sleep and when i woke up i ran off to go take
pictures
>at the catholic seminary, and stayed up all night writing DC stories for my
>zine, and gave up my school to become a full time professional mooching
>lazybones.  thus, the Pernicious Entartente-Musik du Belle and Sebastian
>does assuage my ambition and cause me to become complacent in my bad fit
>with society, therefore sinking further into the anonymity and my flaming
>desire for individuality is effectively submerged beneath the waves of
>proletarian work ethic and bureaucracy.  Thus, the State continues in all
>its glory.  Hail mother country!

>or you could just say Slacker.

>Suede went down the toilet the moment Bernard left, don't you know it.
