Sinister: Ease your seat in the fey

Oh yes, fascinating. It's true, the Scorpions had a huuuuge following 
in Japan at the time they had any following at all, which is long 
ago. And no, I don't know the reason either.. you never know which 
band will be "big in Japan".. I think the Cardigans were before they 
got big everywhere else?
oh yes, last news on the Scorpions is that they dress, sing and play 
like Rammstein now, but leave out the right-wing background. 
Everybody else is doing it...

Celebrity: Until now I've succeeded in not meeting any famous person 
at all, which is quite a feat in itself, seen the amount of them 
nowadays.. I thought I'd bump into them at any corner in Paris, but 
no. They're hiding. At least I've got a slight celeb connection, 
because the father of Claudia Schiffer (the blonde stoopid german 
model) was in the same class as my father for some years. According 
to my father, he was a pretty wild guy, threatened to be thrown out 
of school a few times. But now he's a respectable lawyer. I should be 
angry on my father for not having kept contact to him.... 
Some hot & spicy inside information: Claudia really loves her cheesy 
magician and really wants to marry him. That's not hot & spicy? well, 
come to think of it.. it's not. It's just boring reality. 


>> I'm listening to the Tindersticks. Beautiful. Wow. SO good!<<

Aaaaaaaaaaaaah I love you whoever you are :)
That's a good ending for a bad post, I suppose. 
I had lots of other things to comment on, but.. I forgot. I imagine a 
sigh of relief running accross the earth, spanning continents, flying 
over deep-blue oceans.. followed by a huge earth-shattering sound 
created by the pressing of about 1075 delete-keys.
Simultaneously.
