Up until this past summer, I was a strict scrabble square, but I met a girl that changed my life in Chicago in May. I broke up with my boyfriend who loved me and I needed a change. He was calling every day. “Katie! I loooove you! I adore you” I wont play scrabble with you. My words are worth less than ten points and I’d never use all seven tiles. I returned home from school in mid-may and met someone who would change me and change how I thought about words. My best best friend in the world goes to school in the south. Carolyn came home two weeks before me and brought with her another C name. Catherine is three years older than the two of us and never met someone she didn’t know. She came to Chicago for an internship as a reporter. Her newslike voice doubled as a jazz singer nights. Catherine lived with Carolyn for the first two weeks she was in the city. Her last night with Caro was myfirst night home. The three of us went to our favorite places, Improv Olympic on a Sunday night and The Golden Nugget. We listened to Jonathan David in the car downtown. We had a great time and planned to meet up at her new apartment the following weekend for a similar week. I said I’d bring the post improvisational entertainment. When getting a messenger together to our second meetup, I realized something I’d left at school, the love of my life and fire of my loins, my scrabble. Well, we went down to the rest of the festivities and Catherine suggested we play Boggle instead. We played at the all night café all night, with all the characters nearby. All the characters I would have never given the chance to beat me. But they beat me. All summer long we brought boggle along. We brought it to parties, played it at all the cafes and diners we could walk to, played it in the park. She gave me my own before she left town. Now I play it before I grab the little tiles I so dearly loved. I don’t remember my scores and although I usually beat everyone by now, that’s not what is important. I cant tell you how many people I’ve talked to when we’ve been playing somewhere and they mention the annoying chatter from shaking the cubes. Come, sinister, and play a game with me. xoxo kate +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

Message-ID: <20041207190149.5704AC6142@ws7-5.us4.outblaze.com> Hello Sinister, All the Christmas Exchange participants should have got their e-mails last Thursday and should know who they have to buy/make/glitter a present for. I had fun organising it. I liked getting your e-mails and hearing how much everyone loved the Christmas Exchange. I reminded me how much I like Sinister. Before the Christmas Exchange e-mails I dont think Id written to you in over a year, maybe two, but Ive been half-writing posts in my head for about 6 months so it was obviously time that I came out of lurkerdom. Fortunately or unfortunately, those half-written posts didnt even get as far as the Draft folder. But despite never getting in touch, I cant imagine not being part of Sinister. I will be in Dimitras old folks in years and years talking about my first B&S concert or my favourite Sinister posts. Most of the people I know on-line Ive met through Sinister. Without Sinister I wouldnt have got involved in Friends of the Heroes and wouldnt have ended up in Norway this summer with Rachel Sunnyset, listening to If youre feeling sinister in a little house on the edge of the fjord. And I cant even begin to describe the effect you have had on the music I listen to through recommendations and mix-tapes or the way I think and feel about music. So, thank you : ) You guys are pretty special to me, and if Sinister is that much quieter now, it just makes me look forward to new posts more! And theres always the archives. And this Friday I am heading to the Chickfactor Ball with a few people from Friends of the Heroes, which also wouldnt be happening without Sinister. Perhaps I will see some of you there. All my love, Grainne. -- _______________________________________________ Find what you are looking for with the Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.asp?SRC=lycos10 +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

Message-ID: dear sinister how are you? i've been a terrible frined, but you're always there, by my heart, and i hope you accept me when i turn to you now... though i wish i could meet you all, go to picnics, sometimes the distant anonymity of being so far away over here can be comforting, and i'm sorry if i abuse it. but you've helped so much in the past just by being there, and i need you now too. i heard this morning that my ex was raped over the weekend. and it really really screwed with me. what makes it worse is that she's treated me so badly this whole year (in fact, i haven't heard from her in months, but she made sure i got this message, even though she didn't phone me herself) - she only seems to think of me when she's in trouble; even when we were going out she paid attention to me when she needed me - when her world was fine i was so much furniture. and it destroyed a lot of me (i'm still recovering) but i mean, this... i know she's only running to me because there are very few people left (she' got a real gift for alienating people) and i know eventually she'll just discard me like an empty packet, and i'm not sure i can deal with it. what do you do when someone has tried for so long, and in such an ugly way to push you away, and then suddenly really really needs you again? is that as selfish a way of looking at things... at THIS in particular... as it feels? can you cry for someone until they've sucked you dry, and are you a bad person if you decide not to? or if you don't have the strength? and i don't know what to do anyway - i spent the whole year trying to make her life better, and nothing i did seemed to even register, nevermind be appreciated. what do i do now? i'm not asking for advice i guess - maybe i'm looking for reassurance, or absolution, but i hope not: not from you anyway. but i just need to say something, to someone. of course i do speak to my friends, but they all hate her for what she's done to me (and no, not because of what i've said about her - about what they've seen her doing to me) and it feels so unfair: if i do what i think the right thing is to do, i'm going to fall apart again, and they're going to have to deal with me; if i do what they think i should, and which i know is the best thing for ME, then it means abandoning her when she needs me. there is no right choice i guess - i guess these things just shouldn't happen, to anyone. and no-one gets anything they deserve, good or bad - no, that's put wrongly: nobody deserves anything that happens to them, either good or bad. the universe is such a f*cked-up random mess of events. the hard part is not lying on the bed you've made... it's learning to lie on the beds life throws your way, of learning not to be unworthy of what happens to you, as deleuze said. i'm just hoping i'll be strong enough and thanks for giving me so much strength already, just for having been, and being there. love always JohaN +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

Message-ID: <000501c4dd5e$1cef0fb0$6501a8c0@KRISTIN> I was pondering the other day on my relationship with Sinister. I remember when I first discovered it, in a cold basement flat in Ipswich, with my then-boyfriend, Mark. His flat was always cold, and strange slug trails would appear on the carpet in the middle of the night, like someone had taken a slimy glitter pen and drawn a random squiggle on the floor. So I think I was freezing cold, and his TV was on silent, and we had a few table lamps on. His computer sat on a table with a folding leaf, and I sat peering over his shoulder, while he gave me a sharp look because he didn't like me reading over his shoulder. I think I was feeling restless, and bored, and wanted his attention. I guess Sinister seemed strange and mysterious. All that pink, all those names I never knew, and how they all had this mysterious interaction that I wasn't part of, with my boyfriend. Random girls and boys emailing my boyfriend out of the blue, with no agenda, except to share something. And as the saying goes, if you can't beat it (technically, that could be classified as GBH) then join it. So I did. I never quite got the hold of the sinister mystique. I never discovered what it was. It just remained, something a little bit special, and like a good Christmas present, it never really aged. It never lost its sparkle, or that "smell" of newness. It aged a bit, it faded in places, some bits are starting to look doggeared and worn, but it remained the same thing. And I guess I still look at it in the same way I did one night, in that basement flat in Ipswich. Only, without the shoulder in the way. I think what I remember most about that period of time, was wandering round shops in Norwich in the winter, just as it got dusky at 4pm, and the streets were heaving with people. I liked this one shop, which sold things like throws for sofas, and cushions, and candle holders, and incense sticks. I wanted to buy so much from there, but equally, I didn't want the clutter and I couldn't afford it. Now its around the same time of year as when I first discovered Sinister. I think I made a post around Christmas time, after sitting in the nursery for a fortnight. That was around 2000. Four years on, and I'm still here. Some names look familiar, some names even have faces now. I was always intregued by Sinister posts. By the level of intelligence displayed in most of them. By the knowledge that was given, by the words of wisdom. By Ken Chu's ability to always make me laugh or smile, because he used his humour with such intelligence, it made me think "I wish I'd thought of that". I don't know why I decided to share this. I just did. idles xxx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

What do you do when you know someone is cheating you?? A good friend of mine lives in the same house as I. We moved in a week before classes started and read in the sun, went for long walks, listened to music and everything in between. One afternoon I was telling this chick about Nick Drake and Sleater Kinney. We talked about it for a long while; the conversation ended with me handing her a few of my favorite CDs. She listened to then and I began making her mix tapes to listen to. Anyways, for my birthday I bought myself the coveted I-pod and went through the painstaking task of backing up every CD I own so that I could listen to it on the go. It took hours upon hours and a long time for me to realize that at least two of my cds were missing. I knew these were loaned to someone....who?? after a while, I recalled it was Jen who had some nick drake, some sleater kinney and even my favorite ep, I'm waking up to us. Last week, I brought this up to her..."Hey Jen Pen, do you remember back in summer.....i loaned you a few albums..." "No you didn't" "Actually I think I did, but regardless, I'm missing some. Could you look through yours as a favor?" "No, I didn't steal your CDs" She refuses to look. I know its only a few albums and she is a good friend, but i can't get it out of my head. What should I do, sinistereens?? xox kate +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

I'd forgotten all about it, until I was watching television briefly a few weeks ago. They had used a song from the Amelie soundtrack as music for something in a TV show (I forget which or what), and then they had this song. And I'd forgotten how beautiful it was. It just puts me in a dreamy mood, almost perfect. I swear it's the perfect song for wintertime.

Lost my features, face, arms legs, not even a section or a plane, nor the one-dimensional marcusian man, or a dot, an adimensional entity. Or the imaginary part of a complex number? Do you know that the refractive index is an imaginary quantity? It had always amused me, is what creates all the colours and the images we see, and despite being real, is not Real. Sure the heart still pumping gallons of blood trough my veins and arteries and the circulation seems to be in a fairly good shape, the lungs are blowing the air in out mechanically, like a perfect clockwork, all this effort through an non existing body. Cruelty is mechanical. Like any mathematician would tell you. Is cold, colder then walking through the frozen lakes in night without moon and starts in the sky, is sharp, as a well tempered razor blade, is precise, as meticulous springs and gears in a machine, is methodical, as an exercise book of linear algebra. Walking in the fresh air, I did suddenly realise that most of all is worthless. And yes, I am a living thing too with a heart pumping blood trough veins and arteries and lungs are blowing the air in and out all but mechanically. I can even think, talk, write, discuss, iron, wash, cook, run, walk, work, love and for Christs sake, suffer. Do I taste like nothing? Do I poison like nothing? Black chocolate, and brandy, and lets go to the massacre of sentiments. For I havent got anything to lose anymore.

I seem to remember someone rather ridiculously rapping his knuckles for plugging said club once upon a time, seems more content-like than some posts if we are being strict, given there's a fair chance of hearing B&S in the loveliest of clubs (save the dormant tigermilking where sinisterines are the djs, of course ), it's run by one of us, and Sinisterines go there... etc etc... anyway: So who's popping out of the woodwork/getting away from work xmas dos early for this one then eh? Just two years ago everyone met up for the very same reasons and to sign Ben & Rachel's wedding card (ahhh! even his murdochness:) + to dance like loons of course. Bit of a busy week all in all, what with our Italian chum Stefano's birthday the following day too [prod prod], but I'm hoping maybe I'll make it along for the first time since I asked Ian to do me a membership card months ago and haven't blooming made it since :(sorry sir). peace & love from the short (nay spiky, now) haired hippy jim x from http://www.howdoesitfeel.co.uk/club.html "THIRD FRIDAY OF THE MONTH AT THE BUFFALO BAR Underneath the Famous Cock Tavern, right outside Highbury & Islington tube, 9pm-2am, £3 members, £5 non members.

Are you finding your joints aching or your hair freezing? Boy, I sure am. Its cold and I hate it. Its that the-long-underwear-isn’t-helping kind of cold. Chill you so you won’t thaw and shiver under the down comforter. Its beginning to look a lot like winter. To be truthful, I always say I’m a autumn person, but there is a soft, marshmallow spot for winter deep inside me. I love that crunch of frost on the grass as you run up to your parent’s front door. I love seeing my breath, visualizing what was just inside of me, feeding me. I love that the sun always seems whiter and wakes you easier in the winter. And there are thousands more stars to be had. Please, do not, my dearest, mistake winter with holidays. I hate that stuggle-to-tape-the-wrapping-paper stress of Christmas. The family fights, the religion, the cynics, the lights, the overdone not in a good way kitch, the trees….I could do without the holidays. I like giving homemade and well-thoughout gifts to people, but I hate getting generic presents or giving them. The lights hurt my head. What are your reasons for liking and disliking winter? The snow, the family, santa??

I'm set to go to a Snow Patrol concert in a few hours. This was yet another band that was slow to grow on me (add The Libertines and Belle & Sebastian to that list, among others). After listening to most of Final Straw yesterday, I'm wondering why. It's nearly the end of the year. So for fun, I thought I'd list ten of my favourite songs from this year, in no particular order. Songs that I hope you've all listened to and enjoyed as much as I have. Snow Patrol - Wow (Probably my favourite number on Final Straw.) Keane - Everybody's Changing (Perhaps Somewhere Only We Know is superior, but this was the song that made me want to attend their set at Oxegen.) Super Furry Animals - Juxtapozed With U (OK, this is an older song, but still, I've played it quite a few times in the last few months. I never realised how amazing it was until now.) Belle & Sebastian - Step Into My Office, Baby/Dear Catastrophe Waitress (It was too close to call. I love nearly all the songs on the album, but these two played alongside one another make for a great combination.) Kasabian - LSF (Such a simple song, yet so energizing...) The Killers - All These Things That I've Done (Altogether now..."I got soul, but I'm not a soldier...") HIM - And Love Said No (Probably my favourite of this Finnish band's original songs. I nearly said Wicked Game, but it's a cover.) Stephen Malkmus - Fractions & Feelings (my favourite number off the Teachers 3 soundtrack. More on Teachers in a moment.) The Divine Comedy - Our Mutual Friend (You knew I had to include a Divine Comedy song eventually. It seems a simple song, but the lyrics are great and as for that instrumental...well, enough said.) Graham Coxon - Bittersweet Bundle Of Misery (Call this Coffee & TV-lite if you want, but it was the song that convinced me how good Graham was on his own.) I could also throw in some Fountains of Wayne, maybe a bit of Ash (especially Orpheus) but that would take too long. Franz Ferdinand were close to having one song on this list, but then they started to believe their own hype. It's just as well that we've had some great songs to listen to this year, and a number of fine concerts/festivals/gigs to go to (especially Oxegen, which I won't forget for a while, and The Divine Comedy's concert at the Waterfront Hall in Belfast). Because in many other respects the year has been pretty lacklustre. How many films or TV shows have you really been truly enthusiastic about? I personally felt that there weren't that many. Even the new series of Teachers was well below par. Oh well. I suppose you can blame it on the cast juggling. Enough complaining. Hope you all have a merry Christmas and a great new year. Take care Psi PS Those of you who watched the Teachers Christmas special a couple of days ago may have heard B & S's version of O Come, O Come Emmanuel playing in the background at one point. Quite a pleasant moment actually...it reminded me of the time they played in Northern Ireland, just over three years ago (when Isobel was still with them). ___________________________________________________________ ALL-NEW Yahoo!

I'd like to say 'yay' I got an email from Mr Carsmile Steve, but truth beknown it was the Part I email eliciting his worky computer to say "The college is closed until 3 January 2005, I will answer your email on my return." so there, he's promised to reply to the list not much after then.

Perhaps I will have done it by the time you read this. But I doubt it. Meanwhile, I must Report Back on my visit to The Pinefox's luxury bachelor pad in London's fashionable Coconut Grove, something I know at least one of you have been waiting for in a heightened state of anticipation bordering on the erectile. A blisteringly hot Saturday lunchtime. Coconut Grove overflowing with scantily-clad flower children barely supressing their desire to make love NOW. I want to join them, but I have an appointment. Into a pub I push, finding it full of thicknecked bruisers in front of large screens. Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspurs - first match of a new season. At a table by the back window, a gathering of illustrious Sinsterines past, present and possibly future - Steady Mike, Jerry the Nipper, The Pinefox and Matt DC. This is the first time I've met Jerry the Nipper. He is nice. That is Part One. In our next episode, we will actually go to The Pinefox's pad, and inspect the furniture, fitting and the contents of the cupboards.

Message-ID: <1103910061.41cc54ad1cc94@webapps.qmul.ac.uk> My Dear Sinister Approaching Christmas evening, and no sign of snow, this year. I cant remember the last time it actually snowed on Christmas day, something like I was too young to remember, although it did on new years eve but is not quite the same. Ive been driving around this afternoon because I am generally a bit bored, therere nothing much to do in the countryside. Despite it is absolutely freezing outside the lake wasnt frozen, but was good to see the reflection of the sunset into almost flat surface of the lake, mixed with the stripped profile of the winter trees. Ive was listening to the first Palace record and this song called Pushkin. It made me remember there is a song by Aerial M called Rachmaninov. And that all by myself is a complete rip off of one of Rachaminov concerts for piano and orchestra. However, Will Oldham citation of Puskin is not quite right, in fact that is from Dostoevskij, but that doesnt really matter. And the prince Mijskin said love would save the word. Is love the answer? Love is the answer, I think. Hope youll all have a lovefull Christmas time.

(is scott plagenhoef a member? i've been so bad, i've kindof lost track...) which also reminds me: marc bots! well well well - it's great to see you're still around here too - i was wondering... hope all is well! and thanks to everyone who've sent xmas greetings. i like warm fuzzy feelings, and i've been getting plenty of those lately... well, love to you all... can you feel the excitement of a new year building in the air? or is it just me? let me wish each and every one of you a good one anyway! again - lots of love JohaN ps. anders - thank you SO SO SO SO MUCH! your present was lovely! will mail you off-list soon to say thanks properly, and to introduce myself properly. (also everyone else to whom i really really really must and want to write to) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.

Just an intermediate post for you today! It is my birthday today after all So, the year is almost over, but there hasnt been a word written on the upcoming 10th anniversary of the magical year of 1995! Hmm I wonder if the band will commemorate it in any way? People have been talking about their favourite albums of the year. The absolutely outstanding one will have to be Songs About You by Belfasters Language of Flowers. At least if you think Lush, Heavenly and The Primitives are just about the best thing there is. You can read a rather good review of it (written by me, of course) in Swedish e-zine Le Manchester. You might even understand some of it, as its in the for most of you at least vaguely familiar language: English! look here: www.lemanchester.com Also, Id like to warn you that Im finally underway with the creation of my own fanzine, entitled More Than Felt. The first issue will be The Idle Thoughts of a Daydreamer. Its all pretty much supposed to derive from the short story about Sebastian and Isabelle. And Im hoping to get Lawrence and Struan involved in some way. Im also going to contact certain sinisters and ask them to contribute. And if YOU want to create something could be anything really (if it fits unto paper) that would make me delighted indeed! happy new year!
