Anyone else here from alt.music.moxy-fruvous? Ok, on-topic: could someone please explain to me the hidden meaning of "Jack Can't Cook"? I gather that it's satirizing someone, but I can't figure out whom. A local politician, perhaps? (I live in California.) Any help would be much appreciated. - --nicole the wonder nerd *** "Here, I'm going to try it! "--my physics professor, attempting to travel to Jupiter via quantum tunnelling. (It didn't work.)

I just found out about the Edhead list yesterday and wanted to send my first shout out to everyone. At least I hope there's an everyone already, since I don't think the list has been around for very long. :) Well, new or not, it's certainly long overdue! Anyways, I'm a senior at Virginia Tech (alma mater of one Mrs. Julie Murphy Wells), studying Management Science and Information Technology and French. EFO is one of my favorite bands...I'm very pumped to have this list, as I'd love to know how many other big Edheads there are out there, especially outside Virginia. I first saw the band my freshman year at Pedro's in Blacksburg, and immediately was hooked! I have only seen EFO twice since, but I guess that's because our schedules always conflict. I'm still trying to find a perfect local EFO compliment to convince Mike to bring the band up to play in my hometown of Pittsburgh; hopefully someday soon it'll happen. My favorite concert by far was the intimate show last year at Palms Playhouse in Davis, California, near Sacramento. I co-oped out that way last year and flipped when I found out EFO would be trekking west to California. I was used to smoky, sweaty bars at Tech, but the open-air, intimate Palms was fantastic! Despite a lack of harmonicas and a subdued audience that held me back from dancing, the band simply rocked...they sounded fantastic. It was like my own concert, a great experience. Well now that you know a little bit about me I just want to say that I hope this list gets some great discussions going and I look forward to being a big contributor. This summer I'm interning in Phoenix so if any Edheads happen to be out this way, I'd love to hear from you! ttyl Brendan ============================================================= Brendan P.

Good guess on your question...you were pretty close. The song speaks to a local celebrity, Jack Kent Cooke, the late owner of the Washington Redskins football team. Hope that makes some things clearer for you! Brendan :) ============================================================= Brendan P.
