dear list, soon i will be leaving the world of the internet for over a week, so i can promise a minor reprieve. but until then, i think i will share cause i just want to. i don't know why i feel the need to explain, none of our top 82 posters have, so i figure i'm safe. i don't even think i've broke 50 yet, so i figure i have some leeway. so anyway, i still have yet to find anything relating to belle and sebasitan in russia, though i did find a record store that gets the stuff on matador, so maybe the revolution is just around the corner. i've met some russian kids and no one seems too interested in the music here, other than the kids who are going through a metal phase. yup, slayer fucking rules man. i could go into my theories as to why, but they're rather half formed. i still haven't found anyone from russia on the list, but maybe someday.... however, today i went to a dinner party given by my russian friends olla and sonja and their ten cats. one of the cats is an actress on the russian stage. their friend olga is an 84 year old gypsy who was sharing songs and dancing with us. then she made every person in the room perform. sadly, my only talent was being able to down a shot of vodka at a rate that worried my mother, but everything worries my mother. i also had borscht, which actually tastes ok. but it is a frightening shade of red. i mean, we're talking brilliantly red. dayglo. i think it was made from chernobyl beets. b&s jokes... the best one was susannah's lightbulb joke. another: why did stuart david cross the road? he didn't. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha you know, speaking of scotish bands, texas are truly a girl group for the nineties. listen to black-eyed boy if you don't believe me. sure, i can't really make out what it's supposed to be about, but i know it's from a girl point of view. and it has a beat, i can swing to it. anyway, i'll be back in portland soon, so if anyone else is there, let's have a picnic. as that seems to be what b&s people do. actually, why are they always picnics? maybe we should have an outward bound weekend or something. get some real bonding in. xox megan ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
