Sinister: URGENT Columbo-B&S-bassist-non-sock-Mathis request
This is the weirdest email Paul has sent... Want a night out with Stuart David (sort of)? Have access to acres of 70s US cop videos? Stuart is DESPERATELY looking for videos of "Columbo" for a spoken word gig he is doing in Glasgow very very soon - he needs a video within the next 2-3 days. This is NOT a B&S sock-related dream. Or a list manager pisstake. He wants the stuff at the end where Columbo croaks his denouement of the devillish misdemeanour. Videos of Wings of Desire will sadly not do, which I bet you arty lot have by the truckload. He's promised that if anyone can come up with the goods they will get an hour's free chat with him on IRC - if I were you I'd worry what WWW sites he will take you to. If anyone has one, or indeed the whole Columbo collection could they email ME as fast as their little legs can carry them? I guess it'll probably have to be UK because quite seriously he needs them pronto. Honestly I am not taking the mickey. Unless he is. Oh, and while we're at it, this is a World Appeal for a karaoke tape of "When A Child Is Born" by our favourite Johnny. Chris Leonard is too shy to ask, but really he needs one so that he can embarrass his family on UK TV all the way back to the Shelleys.

Unfortunately, I am able to meet Mr David's request. What I would like to know is when we can get B&S on IRC, in the near future. Preferably before Monday as I will be heading back for Dundee then.( I realise this is an impossible request\) God, I only have Kula Shaker on April 1st to look forward to. And that really isn't much. Could you also ask when I'm likely to get my Ink Polaroids and Movies as I am currently dying? And I wish someone could get me away from Ilford cos it's a fookin' shite hole! Yours in drunkeness and next day regret, Jon Thank you for not discussing my love life.

Just to state the obvious, Jonathan confirmed this morning that drunkenness led to a "not" being omitted above. So we're still desperate for Columbo. Not looking good.

Oh dear. Stuart David has actually resorted to prostituting himself *IN CHAT* all for the sake of ambience at a spoken word gig. An hour's worth of uniterrupted Stuart D. banter? /me slobbers all over the keyboard. I believe now is the time to page Susannah of "If Bill Clinton can do it, you can too" fame and help her hunt down some Columbo footage. bye bye, Amanda ------------------ Amanda Bergman Northwestern University a-bergman@nwu.edu "Beware the knowers...beware those who are always reading books..." --Charles Bukowski ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
