Sinister: ToSaveKidAFromBeingDeported......NYCSmileOnMe

[Jeff Burke]

Not many of us like NYC either...or at least the people, the record shops 
yes....

try Boston. It's the US city that's most like a european city (Edinburgh) at 
least in atmosphere.. Unis run the city, lots of shops and food choices.
There are jerks here but when last i was in Edinburgh,(march/april) I got 
accosted by rugby roughs. Granted they were pissed, visiting from the south 
(and england lost) but it was still annoying.

a highlight of that trip was Mogwai w/ And you will know us by the trail of 
dead... in Edinburgh at the liquid room (i *think* that's the name...)

any one on this here fine list attend that show? I think it was around April 
3-4-5. of this year......


BS content.

I was peddaling my little (smoking congested) heart out on the way home from 
work the other day

riding up a particularly trying hill when I heard "chickfactor" blaring from 
a car along my righthand side. To my shock and amazement there was a 
beautiful redhead girl smiling.. she winked and then drove off but still it 
was quite pleasant.

end BS content.

jb in the hizzou.
