Sinister: retsiniS

[PKHINTZ at xxx.com]

Now I am all self-conscious from the weekend and wondering whether this is
really B&S content.  I would not be writing it if it were not for the band's
existance, so is not that justification enough? 

	Yesterday I drove home from work through the town, instead of the back roads
I prefer to travel about on; I had errands to do.  I noticed that one young
man directing traffic bore a certain resemblance to Stuart M., or at least
what I suppose he looks like (he looked frightened).  I think he was
attempting to disguise himself because he was sporting a slight beard.  Now
since I live in the United States, I thought this would be news; it is like
seeing Elvis, only this supposed Stuart was alive, and Scottish.  Has the
pressure of stardom already had its toll on Stuart that he has to moonlight in
manual labor and contruction?  Now that I think back upon it, I should have
stopped the car and asked him to have tea with me.  We could have brought a
table out into the street, sipped our tea and nibbled politely on scones.  We
could have read each other our favourite passages from _The Lion, the Witch,
and the Wardrobe_.  And all around us would be traffic, honking horns, yelling
curses at us to move the tea table from the street; we would not though
because we would have been discussing delicate matters.   
(If Genevieve has her own Stuart David, why can't I have my own pretend 
Stuart M.?)

	Why doesn't everyone on the list meet at Primrose Hill on the longest day of
the year, officially change their names to Belle and/or Sebastian there, and
have a group marriage ceremony there.  That would certainly be newsworthy, at
least to some put off Druids who wanted the hill to themselves for the summer
solstice.  If we didn't make the national press, we could always make "Druid
Weekly".  Of course, no one has proposed to me, so last night I resigned
myself to the life of a spinster--I found fifty cats to live with me, I took
up knitting, and I am currently attempting to frighten the children on my
street.
