Sinister: (Note - Insert amusing comment here)

[J Errington]

Hello sinistereens or listies or whatever the current term is. I havent written for a 
while due to (a) not having anything interesting to say, not that that stopped me 
before (b) Going out and neglecting my e-mail and mainly (c) There suddenly 
being an overwhelming amount of Content. Well, I can go some way to 
redressing (c) - Here's my non-Content all time top ten herbal teas:

1. Peppermint
2. Blueberry
3. Mandarin
4. Rosehip
5. Strawberry, Blackberry & Something
6. Cinnamon, Vanilla & Honey (Although everyone else hates the smell)
7. Fennel
8. Lemon
9. Lemon & Ginger
10. Erm... Definitely not 'Blackcurrant Bracer'! Eeeuugh! Pour it away!

	Hmmn, maybe I'm getting a little too twisted, being at home on my 
own all day. Since all my friends seem to be dissapearing to Uni I'm stuck here 
lying in bed, listening to everything B&S have done, eating marshmallows and 
reading 'Second from last in the sack race.' Simply hell, darlings ;-) Well, where 
was I? Oh yes. Bjork said:

	Well, I like Bjork but that really is bullwarks of the nobelist order. I dont 
know, maybe it's because she knows all the cutting edge dj peeps and only 
sees all the high-charting noelrock pish. I doubt she's heard B&S. I like 'dance 
music' in theory but if you listen to the radio programmes on saturdays, well, 
it's 95% regurgitated disco sludge and deserves to be forgotten as fast as it will 
be.
	I thought I would tell all you non-digest listees about an interesting 
phenomenon I've witnessed. Rod Begbie puts out messages with "Please 
ignore the piece-of-crap advertisment that follows" at the bottom - undoubtedly 
because his service provider puts on some line at the end. However, little does 
he know that Honey's new filter cuts it out anyway, and it looks like Rod is 
telling us to ignore the 'piece-of-crap' next message. Tee Hee.
	Has anyone come up with an amusing anagram of 'The Boy With The 
Arab Strap' yet? No? Me neither. A lot of mishearings talk too. While I had the 
radcliffe session but not IYFS for a few months I thought the fist line of 'Stars of 
Track & Field' was 'Make a new coat everyday to suit your affairs' Well I 
thought it was funny.

Yes! I have to see this! What will you call it? Belle and Sebastian and the 
Scotpop explosion of the late nineties? Belle & Sebastian & Friends? Belle, 
Sebastian and other scottish musicians of 1995 onwards? Will it include the 
legendary band that had Stuart and whoever-that-bloke-on-mark-radcliffe-was in 
it?

	Stuart works collecting blood at the abbatoir and selling it to small 
middle-class kiddies in his spare time. His honorary post is as 'King Pimp' but 
HoneyPaul does the day-to-day operations. His favorite food is grilled overripe 
aubergine with a bean & tatty pie and his favorite colour is vomit red.
	Isobel lives by night as a vampire, feasting on the blood of obese 
american tourists. To earn extra pocket money she sells Skag cut with Persil 
to Tory MPs. She is powered by her magic pedal-pushers. Her favorite food is 
Haggis made with the stomach lining of Jerry Garcia and the leftover meat from 
Jerry Springer, and her favorite colour is rupture mauve.
	Chris has a secret double life as a spy for Sony. His task is to infiltrate 
Jeepster records and help their evil takeover bid, for which he is paid chocolate-
coated peanuts. His favorite food is Findus Crispy Pancakes (While frozen) and 
his favorite colour is intestinal grey.
	Sarah is only a hologram. The real Sarah lives in Basingstoke and 
works by day cleaning the socks of rich old men with her special formula. At 
night she sends out her holograms to conquer the world. Her favorite food is 
deep fried mars bars (she eats nothing else) and her favorite colour is omlette 
opaque.

I could go on.... I wont.

			libellously yours,
