Sinister: Dimitra's Dictionary

[Dimitra Daisy]

Dear Sinister,

In case you require clarification from Sunnyset's post here are some useful 
definitions for you:

Real Life: All the things non-dreamers think life is like (a place where 
money is important, people are not nice and buildings are grey) esp. the 
ugly bits. It also contains things like gravity and the weather, which make 
it very powerful. (see: all around you)

Dreamer: Person who values the thoughts in his/her head, whose world is 
filled with colour on a grey rainy days, who wants more from life and finds 
it within himself/herself. (For more information on how to spot them and 
what do with them see http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/dreamers/)

Friends of the Heroes(1): Bunch of crazy dreamers (see word) who think by 
devoting their time and energy to a weekly webzine they can make a 
difference. (see http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/about/)

Friends of the Heroes(2): Weekly webzine that openly embraces the dreamer 
movement, finds heroes everywhere and looks for the magical in the everyday. 
(see http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/)

Dreamer Movement: the act of leading one's life based on the faith that such 
elusive and futile things as love, happiness and money can come to one's 
possession and even that one can make the world a better place. (see 
http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/dreamers/)

Nixon: The very band that gave the world the line 'today I bought a record 
your new boyfriend has never heard of - oh I play it just for you' that 
makes indie kids the world over smile. Their association with the dreamer 
movement is vague however some people consider them to belong to it since 
their lead singer/songwriter/guitarist/bassist/drum machine programmer Roger 
Gunnarsson publicly admitted he believes love can make you happy. (see 
http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/page2/)

Ballboy: Band who gave the world the lyric 'it's alright, cause someday 
we'll be millionaires, and it won't matter then how other people treat you'. 
Their connection to the dreamer movement is somehow clearer since their 
frontman Gordon McIntyre deemed waking life without dreams as being 'useless 
and pointless'.
(see http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/archive/issue22.html#3)

The German Exchange: Band that gave the world the notion of gentleman  rock, 
a few great quotes on the meaning of life and five free cds to those who 
answer a few simple questions!
(see http://www.friendsoftheheroes.co.uk/page8/)

Sinister: Mailing list that often makes dreams more possible and to which I 
owe a proper post. Till then,

Think Pink, Dream Purple,
Dimitra Daisy
