"limp" is scathing, and it's hard to scathe when one is unhappy. > dunno if this one's as personal, maybe not in subject matter or > number, but i'd lean toward yes. i think, like tori amos' *to venus and back*, it's less direct, but no less (perhaps even more) beautiful. i personally am amazed and astounded by fiona's new album, which i love dearly from start to finish, considering almost every song a highlight as i do. > take kares, > tara and to you, robert ***** yeah, fiona rocks. she's possessed. assured? please. :) even if i did believe she is, which i don’t, i certainly wouldn’t keep believing it and agree with you! ~the former girlfriend's rationality ***** when the pawn hits the conflicts, he thinks like a king; what he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight. and he'll win the whole thing 'fore he enters the ring-- there's nobody to batter when your mind is your might. so when you go solo, you hold your own hand; and remember that depth is the greatest of heights. and if you know where you stand, then you know where to land; and if you fall, it won't matter, 'cause you'll know that you're right. ~f. apple ------------------------------ End of apple-tree-digest V2 #41 *******************************
