Sinister: we've come this far

[PKHINTZ]

	It was either this past weekend, or the weekend before, I can't really
recall, that only one year ago I bought _If You're Feeling Sinister_.  I had
read praise of it for over six months on another mailing list by then, and
since I am a trusting fellow, I took the chance and bought it.  I put it on,
and after about twenty seconds, wondered if it were even playing.  I turned
the volume up to be sure that the CD was not defective--only to deafened with
the rest of the instruments coming in after Stuart M's quiet guitar opening.
Oh, it was't such a pleasant summer living at home, but I did find myself
listening to _IYFS_  often.  Too often, by some accounts.  A soundtrack for
late nights, laying on the bed with a book, trying not to move so the heat
would not attack.  A soundtrack for afternoons, wasting the time away, waiting
for the day to end.  I am sure that I listened to it in the mornings also.  I
stayed at home that summer; I didn't like to leave the house.
	 Here I am again, living at home for the summer.  I have listened to _IYFS_
on some of the hotter afternoons that have graced me here; it feels so
comfortable, like an old friend I have not been able to have a deep
convesation with for too long.  I listened to the album during the winter and
spring, but it just doesn't feel the same as it does now.  It is a refuge from
the heat--"cool" in too many senses of the word.
