Sinister: insert something witty here

[Guðmundur Jóhannsson]

Hello all!

How fun it is to come from a small summer vacation and see my beloved  
sinister back with a bang. I havent been the activest of member, you  
can even call me a lurker but I read almost everything that comes in  
as it´s always fun to read what other people are doing and this is of  
course better than working :)

This summer has been great, having a blast with my friends every  
weekend and drinking myself senseless and partying until five or six  
in the morning, which is the Viking Icelandic thing to do really when  
having a good time. I got a big promotion at work early in the summer  
so I don´t have to work weekends no more which is a blast so I can  
watch my Premier League football with a hangover instead of missing  
the games. After I got single again I have also thrown myself into  
the musical indie pool and I think I have never listened to so much  
new music like these last few months and my god there is so much good  
stuff out there.

Iceland, being the lonely island it is in the Atlantic Ocean is  
normally not getting any good concerts but there are one and one that  
is fun to see. The promoters here mainly import old acts like Deep  
Purple, Alice Cooper and Iron Maiden which I have no longing to see  
as it´s both really expensive and I would rather spend my money on  
flying cheap to Denmark or the UK to see some good concert instead.  
The only good concert I have been to this summer was Antony and the  
Johnsons which were fucking amazing. That voice just sends shivers to  
do my spine every time and seeing him on stage just heightened the  
experience more.

Fun things that have happened is that early this year I was voted  
Iceland 4ths most sexiest man, something I am not proud of and I  
smell foulplay as my company is a big one by Icelandic standards and  
I think they had something to do with it and because of that the  
production company of The Icelandic Bachelor have harassed me more  
than anything because they want me one the show which will happen the  
same day as hell freezes over... which is never :) Not my thing and  
not my style :)

Hope everybody is well, and good times at your Sinister Picnics  
around the world.

Gummi

Ps.

Is it not Stuart´s M birthday today?
