No subject

[Kimberly Girton]

I wonder if it's a compromise of security that most of my internet passwords 
are various amalgams of phrases I think I've heard in "A Century of 
Elvis..."  Though I think they would be nearly impossible to for a hacker to 
deduce, as I have heard almost complete nonsense across the board in that 
song (until, of course, I found the lyrics, as one is wont to do when they 
look for things like lyrics to a song).

A LURKER POSTING
... Which is a lot like A Summer Wasting, only without the Summer and the 
Wasting parts, but more with the lurker and the posting instead.  Hello, 
regular posters.  I tend to not be one of you.  But I am noticing two things 
(I say as if I think others have no noticed, but to think that would be to 
prove myself an idiot):  #1.  There are a lot of new posters on here.  And 
#2.  Where is everyone on the eastern U.S. coast who is NOT in New York?  
Not to exclude the New England crowd, but we already know where you are and 
you get to have picknicks.  Those extra K's look absolutely ridiculous.

I WANT PICNICS INSTEAD OF EXTRA Ks
Not to break the train of thought from the last paragraph (but aren't these 
so much more fun to read when they're broken apart, like when Mom used to 
cut your hot dog so you could eat it with your fingers?)... but here's the 
thing about me and this post -- It is a cry for help.  Not the 12-step kind 
or even the 3-step kind or even the 
screw-it-and-pick-up-another-bottle-of-Southern-Comfort kind of help, but 
the "If you are a Sinisteree on the Mid-Atlantic Seaboard of the U.S., put 
your hands in the air and wave 'em like you just don't care" kind of help.  
But without the waving of the hands and more of the 
typing-a-post-to-Sinister.

LOOK, ANOTHER POINTLESS SUBHEADER
Basically, I'm in the DC/Baltimore Metro area and with this whole 
get-together craze sweeping the list in places like Elsewhere-But-Here, I 
feel left out of the fun.  And since I am not one to invite myself to 
far-away places not because of antisocial tendencies but more because I have 
no money, then I'm going to have to create the fun here.  Anyone else 
interested?  Feel free to respond with gathering locale suggestions or just 
a response to my call for a head count; if you want to email me directly, go 
right ahead, but please include "Sinister" in the subject line or I'll 
delete you immediately (nothing personal, of course, but those pesky porn 
emails are really beginning to chafe...).  Well that was a poor choice of 
words...

IN THE GRAND TRADITION OF A CENTURY OF LURKERS
... And back I go to the lurking.  I've been doing it for nearly three years 
here... feels like home.  :) Thanks for letting me ramble a bit.  Also... 
more thanks.

~ Kim
