You are my test group OK! :)) I love yall and I'm sorry I haven't been participating for a loooong time... I was and am soo busy and stil have about 600+ emails to cathc up on... Still I hope you can help me out... there's not much you have to do except to say if this is alright as it is... or say what makes no sense or if you have any other suggestions! Ok here's the deal... you know I announced EDA Music Awards 2000... well 2 cathegories are certain Album Of The Year, which will go same as last year... except this time I'll allow each person to make a list of up to 20 albums... 2nd one which is a special one this year since the Millennium is wrapping up... (I know I know... for me when the number turns 2000 it automaticly starts the countdown to another millenium mark! :)).. of course Best Album Of All Time... which will allow all of you to vote for up to 50 of your favorite albums regardles of when they were released! Now what I'm contemplating about are other cathegories... I think the taste of people on this list is diverse enough to make these cathegories I listed below possible without risk of any of them not getting enough nominations! The problem comes in with the Song Of The Year... there are sooooooooooo many songs out there... so I'm not sure what would be the best way to handle this... I think the restriction that only singles and album cuts (from albums that were released in 1999 and 1998) that came out in 1999 should be elligble is reasonable! Of course a question pops in immediately... what about the songs that haven't been released... like for instance Face Of Love off Joy or something... should aaaaaall those songs be eligible as well... that is what I need you to help me decide on... as well as another thing... would it make more sense to do it the same way as Album Of The Year so that everybody can write a list of 20,30 or whatever songs that are rated first to last... or rather accept 5-10 equal nomintaions and people later vote for TOP 5! And one last thing for now (unless you come up with something constructive that should be included)... Best Jewel Song... I know I know... some people were ahead of me... even though I had this planned since last year's poll... I was cursing those who vent before me!!! :))... Anyway... both those polls went with Favorite 3 songs... I'm the first one to know how that is virtually impossible... so I was thinking at least 10 favorite songs... since she has about 200 hundred available on various tapes... that still wouldn't be easy but it's better... hell thanks to the software I'm still "developing" that will make all of this easier I can accept 100 favorites from each EDA... it makes no difference to me :))) Anyway... I could also use the posts that came to list about each person's faves... but then again it wouldn't be fair since some of us listed more than 3 and some struggled... Also if you decide that the poll should be done again... there's another decision... since it's difficult to pick which one is better (well not me... I take my time think about it and make it a closest approximation I can and feel good and bad about it - I like torturing myslef I guess *lol* )... here's also the question of 10 or whatever equal nominations or chart like thingie... #1 - #10! Pheeeeew... I think I covered everything I had to say for now... uhmmm... so here's a quick recap of what I need from you (details above :) ) 1. All the cathegories below OK? Or not? + any other suggestions? 2. Should there be a cathegory Song Of The Year? If yes only released songs or unreleased as well? Chart like or equal nominations? How many? 3. Best Jewel Song a cathegory as well? Chart like voting or equal nominations? How many? Ok here are the current cathegories I think we should go with +AOTY+BAOAT Best Folk Album 5 Nominations Best Rock Album 5 Nominations Best R&B/Soul Album 5 Nominations Best Rap/Hip Hop Album 5 Nominations Best Pop/Dance Album 5 Nominations Best Country Album 5 Nominations Best Rock Song 5 Nominations Best Folk Song 5 Nominations Best R&B/Soul Song 5 Nominations Best Rap/Hip Hop Song 5 Nominations Best Pop/Dance Song 5 Nominations Best Country Song 5 Nominations - -- Have fun and stay beautiful Dr. RomeAntic, an angel with the worst stroke of luck and a flash of silver lining "I wish for the world that I could say "Hey Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing alright these days"" Counting Crows / I Wish I Was A Girl / This Desert Life Catch Dr. RomeAntic's outdated cyber image @ http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Metro/2009 ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 12:10:07 EST From: DPS8315@aol.com Subject: ET: Re: eda-thoughts-digest V2 #339 In a message dated 11/27/99 1:08:22 AM US Eastern Standard Time, owner-eda-thoughts-digest@smoe.org writes: > ------------------------------ > > Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 22:09:36 EST > From: JohnTracy4@aol.com > Subject: ET: NYE 1999 > > Well, I don't know about the so-called "big one" but I would however like > to get a girlfriend before the ball drops.

I guess that is a once in a lifetime experience. I suppose that the general consensus is that we'll all be at parties, many of us plastered, the rest of us acting crazy in our own special ways.. For a couple of years now, I've actually been giving thought to what I'd like to do... The last three years: I've slept, been at home, slammed a shot with some 'friends' I dont like.. (and then went streaking).. For the last couple of years, I'd figure that I'd be at one of my favorite little spots... surrounded by whatever environment was there, and all to myself, because I figure... I'll spend most of my life by.my.self. and then, well, a girl came along... a beautiful one, a popular one...blah blah blah.. She'll be invited to all the seniors parties, and that's not to say that I couldn't go with her, because I know these people, but they certainly aren't *my* friends........... and I dont want to drag Nikki away from hers, so a dilema arises......I buy into that like to have a first kiss of the new millenium, but we'll share the first kiss anyway............... bleh! see all the problems women cause?!?! hehe, James ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 14:36:14 EST From: JewelAng@aol.com Subject: Re: ET: New Years Eve In a message dated 11/26/99 9:51:50 AM Eastern Standard Time, hwarrior99@hotmail.com writes: << well, personally, i'm going to sit in the corner by myself like i do every year, and wait for the big moment. then i'll plaster a big stupid grin on my face and go get something to drink. anybody else? ~Chris "so you tell yourself what you want to hear becasue you've got to believe this will be your year" -Semisonic >> Hmmmmm, sounds very nice....

Ecept this year her boyfriend is coming so we get to make > fun of him. :) How about everybody else? Well, I don't know yet exactly what I want to do. I like this girl who I will be with the few days between Xmas and New Years for a fraternity conference, and hopefully by then she'll be my girlfriend, but at the least she'll know my feelings by then. Anyhow, I might party with friends, or my dad mentioned my mom and him going to see some spectacular fireworks. I don't know yet though. In any case, I DO have a gripe. The MILLENIUM doesn't start for another 1 year, 1 month and 3 days. All those who are kissing or doing anything to/for someone January 1st, 2000 are NOT doing it to them for the first time in the new millenium as the millenium is from January 1st, 2001 until(but not including) January 1st, 3001. There was NO year 0(zero) hence if one wanted to include the first century, it would only have 99 yrs in it and the first millenium had 999 yrs in it. Well, that's all I had on my soap box. Talk to ya all later :o) Take care and Have a Great Day! :o) Seth D.

And she has a theme for it, "Kiss Me at Midnight." Oh yeah, did I mention that her and her bestfriend both have crushes on me... and... they just aren't really the most like-able people in the world. They are just really bratty and bitchy a lot. Over all... bad idea. I've never been in the town I live in now on New Years. Like 10 years ago or something when we lived in a different town, we had new years at home, but we always go to these stuipid people's house.. lol Not this year though, I hope. I think that New Years is almost like my second dis-liked holiday. Because I've NEVER had fun on it. Just like Thanksgiving. ok, now I'm blabbing. Sorry.

Hello Angels, Hmmmm...hasn't it been weird around the list lately? All this Jewel stuff is being pushed back. First the "Life Uncommon" video was supposed to come out with "Joy" then it going to come out November 30th. Do you really think it will come on video? Then tonight I went to two different record stores and they never even heard of a sound track for "Ride With the Devil" let alone have it. Has that been pushed back too? And how come "Ride With the Devil" isn't in local theartes? When is that coming out? Wasn't RWTD first supposed to come out in like Summer??!!! Hmmm, intersting, I think there is a Jewel conspercey.....All her dates have been moving back....Hmm, do you believe that the reason Jewel isn't having the concert on New Years is they didn't sell enouge tickets?? JOIN THE EVERYDAY ANGEL HAVEN WEBRING!!!!!!! Your website does not have to be a Jewel site to get into the webring!!!! All you have to do is be on a Jewel list and have a web site!!!!
