1. Lucy Alder alleged that we’re:

“all just gagging to dig… out of the cupboard… (yay!)”

I am unsure why this should make someone so happy.

2. Mr Farley opined:

“[T]he very worst kind of records are those you don't even
notice cos they're so utterly inconsequential.”

I reckon I’ll have to take issue with that comment.  Surely the scale should 
be drawn on a scale from Terrible to Great and thus “Apathy-inducing” would 
be the centre pointing, and therefore not the worst type of song.

3. Nothing to report this week.  I too went to the Peacock book-launch
thingymajig and (contrary to popular opinion [or, rather, the opinion of one 
sinisterine] we received free bottles of Budweiser.  I have to agree with P 
F: “Rubbish”!

4. I should have some reporting soon (i.e. the lyrics to both Take Your
Carriage Clock and Shove It & Big John Shaft).  That is, if there is any 
demand.  :)

5. Would anyone like any legal advice?  That is, those people who live in 
Scotland and are having any problems regarding Criminal, Family, Contract, 
or Constitutional law.  I’m also a dab hand at the ‘dismal science’.  I 
believe it was Malthus who earned that monicker for Economics, wasn’t it? 
Yeh, him and David Ricardo.  P F?  Anyone?  Nick (Dastoor)?

Well, I have nothing much to say of any consequence, however if anyone wants 
to talk or ask me anything I will be more than happy to talk.

6. Shawn & Emily:  The guy from the television station hasn’t got back to 
me, but if I get any news I will let you know.  Sorry, for not replying 
quicker my life has been a little hectic lately (hence, my absence from 
Sinister.

7. P F: What magazine, journal etc. do you work for?

Thank you,

Sinister cub reporter: David Howie.

PS I was thinking Honey (or list mummy) that since you don’t have a badge to 
give me, you could give me a nice @missprint.org e-mail address.  Perhaps, 
sinister.reporter at missprint.org?

PPS Oh yeh, and I got my tickets for B&S yesterday the 15th and 16th.  
Anyone want to meet the Sinister junior reporter?  Didn't think so.
