Subject: Sinister: bra(t) pack

John Hughes = waste of celluloid

aye, lad, i'd have to second you on that  one--being probably the only
person i know of under 30 who isn't familiar with those movies. admittedly i
have seen ferris day off when i was a gell, but all the other ones i'm
clueless about, and thankfully.

Genevieve, do you ahve a tape of your Jellicle cats leotard dance?  that
sounds wellll surreal.  wowee wow.  who did the jellicle cats, was it TS
Eliot, or that other guy??   sorry  i forget things like that.

I'll namble and pamble with isobel campbell, any old day.    now we should
find rhymes for ahh all the other members, like burdock (isn't that a weed
of some sort) for Murdoch,  and martin should be easy to rhyme. or course,
in the action with STUDLY stevie jackson.

I made a funny cartoon the other day with stuart in it.  but it's a mystery.
i'm not telling what it's about.

NOW onto the subject of Donovan.  mysteriously, i found a donovan 45 in this
stack of  old  records i have from my grandparent's house a long time
ago.....among the treasures being lovely things like the "Kac-Ties" the
"Four Lads" mary hopkins, nancy sinatra, petula clark, and the 5th
dimension, as well as some very nice  rolling stones songs from when they
were young and cheesy, and much better.  but at any rate, the donovan single
is "Aye my Love/Lalena".  i was curious since i'd heard  ppl say stuart
sings like donovan.   aye, my love, that he does.  it's  quite a comparison,
except that stuart doesn't do that rather nasty vibrato thing at the end of
each line that the D-meister does, which is a bit grating, but the songs are
terrific.  they have Strings, Flutey Mary-Jo solos (come and  get it boys!)
and wispy, wistful vocals like "La-di-da"  and stuff about despair and
loneliness and what not.  actually "Lalena' is a pretty good couterpart to
Mary JO, the theme is  quite similar.  "that's your lot in life, Lalena"
(note: the n in lalena is pronounced as in spanish: enyay)   i was
extremely overjoyed.  it made my day, which tells you how sad that
particular day is.

bxk--we always looking for some good cheese poetry.  je suis fromage.
AUUGHHHH   why is cheese funny? for that matter, why are lesbians funny?
and Nuns.  nuns are funny.  why??

Mommy--I wanna be a MTV VJ too.  that would be a corker....me playing
pjharveys' Mansize and Is It Wicked 24-7, and moping about trying to be all
girly and loud in my camisole tops. a ctually it would be incredibly boring,
wouldn't it.  always at the mtv studios with idiots like carson daly, giving
empty kudos to TLC and Collective Soul and uh 3rd Eye blind.  i think i
would get bored of it after a week, and just stay home to paint pictures or
something.  when would you have time to go horseback riding, or sit alone in
solitude with Pussy Power?   i knwo one thing, i'd play sleater-kinneys new
video  constantly. (in any case, kids in America, i've got my VJ picked out,
can you guess who it is?  i'm so wrong. is it wicked to idly glance at the
tv screen on a BORING saturday afternoon????)

i want my Fierce Tidals records!!!  it will be so lovely.

guess what, i have a set list.  i did a performance last week.  i felt so
proud writing down my list to have before me, just like a famous rawk star
like isobel, let's see should i do is it wicked right before kinky love? oh
deary me.    it was very much fun.  i'm almost  proud enough now to sing a
song in public.  (ouch!)  wait for my indie pink viny 7" with my band, My
Sweet Bread Toaster, coming soon

anyone else admitting a guilty pleasure for that  Hit Single "kiss me"  by
sixpencenonethericher?  even though it was put into a totally EVIL movie,
that girl singer is so mousy and adorable.

if anyone cares, my crush said bye to me yesterday.  that was a big
occasion for me. just pat me on the head and humor me and go  on your way.
exhibitionist for the shy,
Miss Helen Furr(of the decidedly non-flat abdomen)
