Sinister: But thinne it lay, by colpons, oon by oon

[Genevieve Wesley]

Someone wrote awhile back that Sinister has been a source of comfort for 
many during the fear of the terrorist attacks, and a former listees 
website:http://www.arigoldfilms.com/WTC.html
has been one of the better things I've read in contrast to all the numbing 
and terrifying sensory overload in the papers and on the t.v.

Not meaning to return to that tired old argument, but when I was returning 
my Strokes cd, the record store boy thought I was being foolish because 
apparently, they are pulling that album due to a New York City song on it 
and it's becoming rare? I don't know anything about record value or the 
exchanges on ebay, I just like to live vicariously through my older 
brother's tales. ("..and then I sold all off your dad's Beatles albums on 
the apple label")When I first bought the record it was out of a big fate 
pile (no endangered species) but that's what record boy said, so thought it 
might be of interest to some of you.

It's seems like it's been a while since I bought a record that I liked 
almost all the way through and not just two songs. Thank goodness my special 
edition Lloyd Cole's Greatest Hits arrived on my desk the other day. My 
Associates cd also came in. I've seen their name on Sinister before, but I 
think it always just registered as The Association with my brain, and I 
didn't pay much attention (not that I don't like Never My Love) but I think 
I'm scaring my mother by playing Club Country too much and singing in that 
banshee voice "refrigeration keeps you young I'm told". It's such a fun song 
but the lyrics are quite creepy. I love his breathy voice at that one bit, 
but "every breath you breathe belongs to someone else" eep.

Now don't be too hard on Pauline L. Shivers, we need all voices on this 
list, the gentle and the international jetsetter alike. She makes me giggle 
and giggles are good.

I suppose I should put my necessary 'I love autumn' comment in too. :) We're 
going to the farm for Canadian Thanksgiving and it will be lovely. I'm going 
to make Real Tiramisu. You just don't notice the changing leaves in the city 
like in the gatineau hills. But Arctic Woman has warned me not to go too 
deeply into the forest - the drought has brought out the bears. But Mama! 
Struan is trapped in the secret cave with evil Barnacle Bear, what on earth 
shall we do? I need to ride behind him on the motorbike (hands wrapped 
tightly around leather-jacket body, face huddled from the wind) since Lucy 
stirred such a lovely image.

I've got to read the 'Mabinogi' now, even if I can't pronounce it!

Kisses,
Genevieve

Sorry these pictures aren't of a pique-nique, so they'll probably only 
interest a few of you, but here are some London/Scotland pictures:
