The OFFICIAL Sisters site

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Anybody have the low down on who's behind this and when it will be up to full speed? Does the Reptile house still exist? Or have they not responded to me because I didn't enclose a stamped addressed envelope? Items on the site just seem to appear at random. Worth waiting for mind you :notworthy:

And why, if you are 'sad' enough to attempt to contact them by email, who is the mysterious 'brickiethequiff'? 8)

And finally, for all you amateur sleuths out there; am I the only one who's noticed a distinct similarity in prose, grammar and phraseology, with what appears to be the main author of the site and a certain revered Heartlander who occassionally graces us with his musings? :von:

never heard him called "revered" before! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :notworthy:

'Items just appearing ...' I rest my case. :urff:

'Revered'? I was being respectful and polite. Didn't want to rattle his cage incase he woke up ... :eek:

I think you're talking about different HE's.

I'm assuming the claim was that Bux is simply a way for Quiffy to be unpleasent and (more) sarcastic (much as Bax himself is the outlet for a certain Mr Eldritch)...

Speaking of "Santa Claus" - and the above mentioned web site - I wonder if Coca Cola have got wind of it - As they own the copyright on the Big Guy with beard and the sack - and I am not talking about a certain HL member ;-)

I love the way they slipped this into the FAQ:

How do the reindeer fly?

A long time ago Santa and his helpers discovered magical oats and corn-- when the reindeer eat the oats and corn the deer become able to fly and leap high into the air.

What kind of computer does Santa Claus use?

Santa uses Apple Macintosh computers -- this site is supported using three Power PC machines (PowerMac 8600/300, PowerMac 7500, PowerMac 7100, and a PowerMac 6100) and a Quadra 700, Centris 650 and IIci.

Why can't I ever see Santa or his elves?

Santa and the elves are magical and move very quickly. Sometimes, if you are very good, you *might* catch a glimpse of an elf!
