I ususally sit back and listen but I felt the need to interject because I'm in the mood to be on a soapbox today. I noticesd a lot of stuff written about cosmetics and plucking eytebrows and JEwls crroked teeth etc. It instantly reaffirmed my belief that we (as a society) are much to caught up in what people look like. Who cares if someone plucks their eyebrows...does it make them obsessed with beauty? OR are they just concerned with the threat of a unibrow? WHo cares about JEwls teeth? So they're crroked...maybe she didn't feel like wearing braces, or maybe her family cou;dn't afford them...or maybe jt a zombie she thinks her crooked teeth give her a bit of character so she is not clone to the fashion industry's ideas of "beauty". I know that people were being sarcastic and I found it amusing too...I just felt like making sure we all remembered that being a clone is a bad thing and if you're gonna pluck your eyebrows and wear makeup you should do it for you, not so you can look like one of those models whom I will not name b/c that would be giving thewm credit for fame they do not deserve. I'll step down now. Sorry if I have inadvertently offended someone on my first real post to the list. LEt me know if I did and maybe we can work something out.

I agree with you.. I personally thing she is the epitome of classical beauty.. I have never seen someone so beutiful on the inside or outside.. both of which matter to me.. but not to a point in which I pick or put down.. live life as it should be.. to your fullest.. but don't EVER take that away from someone else just to boost yourself.

In the July issue of Spin, there is an ad on page 55 featuring Jewel. The quote, credited to the Washington Post, is "As close to heaven as you can get". Here is the actual entire quote than ran in the post in February: "Though a variety of critics have raved over her voice, which has been called everything from ethereal to crystalline to as close to heaven as you can get, her lyrics have been criticized for being just a little too sweet, a little too naive." hmmmmm (Feel free to forward to the Jewel list if this tidbit has never been reported there.)

Never just look at small >implications, look at the big picture! I think you pretty much hit the nail on the head.. I was personally just addressing the teeth topic, but hey.. I should have expressed all my thoughts. From what I can tell (and I've never met her) Jewel is very close to perfect.. in not just that. The one thing I admire in her is her wit.. her brains. She is VERY smart, and very loving.. she had the oportunity to turn her back on a small world.. and she gave the world a gift instead. She will live forever in this place because she was unselfish.. not because she's pretty.. not because she's smart, or even one of (if not the) best singer yet.. she will remain in the heart of human kind because life dished it out in uneven levels to her.. and she did what she loved.. and gave all she had. She's one of a kind.. I really wish I could have met her.. but hey, who comes to see us Oklahoma City boys, eh?

Her legs looked great the hairs looked light and soft (no touching). I can't quite explain it but I found it so um.....attractive, yeah that's it. I can kind of understand shaving the under arms, cuts down on the smell?, but legs doesn't make sense to me, nor the make up. As for perfuming, I like the light scents and the smell of someone just walking out of the shower with freshly washed skin and nice smelling hair ooohhhh what a turn on, well as you all can tell its been awhile for since the last uhhh...romantice moment with someone else for me, letters can only get you so far. ahhh anyways..

This letter could be misunderstood if I sent it private. I publically want to state that you, Selena, are the women of my greatest dreams and fantasies. It is not like I'm the first one on the list to say so. The difference is I am doing it openly and honestly. Selena, without your permission, I'm going to get a little graphic at your expense but for the benefit of some of the younger readers. Picture waking up in the morning next to Selena and looking at her and seeing the same beautiful person as the night before. This is real important and much better than a women that has to put her face on first. Oh yeh, its OK if you remind me about Kathy. I still love her. When I wake up before she does, I often just watch her sleeping and stare at her. She fits the same description as Selena. Of course if she wakes up first and she looks over at me, I frighten the hell out of her. Some of you have the same healthy and unperverted fantasies about Jewel. I think thats OK. Now for Selena's sake, picture this waking up stuff at an EDA camping event. Keep in mind she is a mom. The perfume issue is also important. Selena and I have shared a few letters and she already knows about my well hung and well endowed proboscis. Now that I got the attention of all the perverts, and the Pre-Med students are already laughing, lets pause for the others to catch up.

. So its not that funny. You see with this special organ I am able to tell a lot about people. Even a freshly bathed person gives off the smell of fear. I can smell a liar. Again for some of the younger men, next time instead of wham bam thank you mame, start out with this idea. Start out smelling her. Smell her hair, smell her ears, smell her breath, smell her skin. Do this real slow. Take your time. If you try real hard, you will be able to smell love and passion. Hot has a smell. So even in the dark, you won't call her by the wrong name, you'll remember her smell. Perfume takes all the this pleasure away. It hard to trust someone that is hiding there true self with artificial fragrance. Some times you have to just trust your eyes. If you smell someone that is wearing perfume and they are being followed by bees, thats Ok. But if she is being followed by flies, you can't fool flies. > On recieving flowers.

I have to agree with you. 1-800-FLOWERS is a cold way to show someone you love them. When we go to funerals, we donate to the appropriate charity such as the American Heart Assoc., MADD, AIDS Research, etc. in the name of the deceased.

The last thing I wanted to do was look at damn flowers. Well you can call me a pansy now because I loved it.

What would be really cool would be if I could do a Multiple Man thing where I could bonk my head and split into two people and keep hitting myself and keep multiplying, but when I wish, reabsorb the multiples and all of their memories. Yeah! My opinion: if we talk about Jewel's physical features such as her wigglytooth, does that make us superficial. I don't think so; it's just another thing to discuss or point out about Jewel. After all, this is the Jewel mailing list that is, in theory, supposed to be about almost everything Jewel-related, right? But all things being equal, a good discussion is always fun:) Now if we talked about Bill Clinton's girlish figure or Bob Dole's smooth and supple face, then we might be getting into no-no areas (augh, put the flamethrowers away!

Really, I know what you're talking about, Igor...I have a sensitive olfactory nerves myself, but they have let me down...in a very embarassing way...in the dark, if you know what I mean.. ;) I'm not gonna change any names to protect the innocent...there aren't any... I was dating a swimmer for a local college, and they use bromine instead of chlorine in their pool...bromine has a very specific scent, and I know it well (i work at pools). So this person I was dating had a scent...i thought it was perfume (because she didn't smell like bromine)...and a very nice one, at that... I liked it, and started to associate the scent with her... Well, it all didn't pan out (she flunked out...hey, never said I just dated the brains) and she moved back home... A few months later, I started to date a teammate of hers (i never said i didn't have a thing for swimmers, either..) and damn if she didn't smell just like my ex... One night, we were in the "dark", and damn if I didn't blurt out..."Hey, you smell like Shauna...what perfume is that?" After five minuets of assuring her I wasn't thinking about the ex...and begging for forgiveness for asking a stupid question while I should have been "enjoying the moment", she laughed and said it wasn't perfume...just lotion. But I had to remind her that she always put lotion on, but she didn't always smell that...good. I had to then ask if Shauna used the same lotion, and she told me that she got the oltion from her. It was the mixture of residual bromine and the lotion. I'm gonna bottle the stuff. BTW, IMHO, I like perfume...it can smell so damn good...I think Rob had the same notion...and it can linger, like when she/he borrows your shirt...and you don't wash it right away...MMMMMMMM... I get the same thing kissing...you kiss someone goodnight (could be after a really good date) and you're driving home...maybe it's late...and you're thinking "That was a really good date..." and you lick your lips, and she's there...and it's not the salsa you had for dinner, a specific taste ('cause taste is associated with smell) Or she spends the night, and when you're going to bed the next night (if she's not still there ;)...) I love it when I can smell her in the pillow... I'm stopping the "scents"-less rambling now... Have fun all, be good, look both ways before jumping...
