IJC: Idiotic Jewel Content (No offense; all my posts are IJC) Though the idea of Miss Kilcher singing with Miss Piggy -- or, in my dream of dreams, with the Swedish Chef -- is quite amusing, I'd avoid it. I think Sinjin once said somebody from Blockbuster Video remarked that Jewel sounded like Pee-Wee Herman. Well, one of my best friends -- I had to forgive him for this one -- says she sounds like a Muppet. I don't personally think so, but I would go through hell if Jewel showed up on a Henson tribute album. Still, I'd LOVE to hear Jewel howl "Bork-bork-bork!" Why do I have such an affinity for the Swedish Chef? Well, in addition to him being the coolest Muppet in existence, I dressed up as him for my 8th Grade Halloween and got an award for it.

It was on a show where they count down people's favorites for the day. It was number nine but they just previewed the song today so I wuold say that is pretty good. It beat out the new song by Weezer, which they also debuted today. The new version is good. It seemed a little slower. I don't know. I missed some of it. I will be sure to listen to it tomorrow.

For starters I'd like to announce myself here as a newbie to this fine group. (please don't take offense if this isn't the case) I figured that this post just had to be the one that I replied to first. I do agree fully- The Swedish Chef is the greatest muppet in existance. Secondly I could very easily see someone such as Jewel portraited as the "innocent, demure" lovely young woman who is put into the kitchen with the chef only to go completely nuts and break lots and lots of kitchen utensils, driving the poor chef into hiding under a turkey or moose... Anyway...I've said it, I'm glad I've said it and now I'm going to go... Hope to keep up with the mail and become as avid a poster as the rest...

Initial enthusiasm (people introduce themselves, and gush alot about how wonderful it is to find kindred souls). 2. Evangelism (people moan about how few folks are posting to the list, and brainstorm recruitment strategies). 3. Growth (more and more people join, more and more lengthy threads develop, occasional off-topic threads pop up). 4. Community (lots of threads, some more relevant than others; lots of information and advice is exchanged; experts help other experts as well as less experienced colleagues; friendships develop; people tease each other; newcomers are welcomed with generosity and patience; everyone -- newbie and expert alike -- feels comfortable asking questions, suggesting answers, and sharing opinions). 5. Discomfort with diversity (the number of messages increases dramatically; not every thread is fascinating to every reader; people start complaining about the signal-to-noise ratio; person 1 threatens to quit if *other* people don't limit discussion to person 1's pet topic; person 2 agrees with person 1; person 3 tells 1 & 2 to lighten up; more bandwidth is wasted complaining about off-topic threads than is used for the threads themselves; everyone gets annoyed). 6a. Smug complacency and stagnation (the purists flame everyone who asks an 'old' question or responds with humor to a serious post; newbies are rebuffed; traffic drops to a doze-producing level of a few minor issues; all interesting discussions happen by private email and are limited to a few participants; the purists spend lots of time self-righteously congratulating each other on keeping off-topic threads off the list). OR 6b. Maturity (a few people quit in a huff; the rest of the participants stay near stage 4, with stage 5 popping up briefly every few weeks; many people wear out their second or third 'delete' key, but the list lives contentedly ever after). - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- So..where's the Jewel List NOW and where is it headed? z. =================== "the truly bookish will mate on the strenght of a spine" =================== FIONA APPLE PAGE http://members.aol.com/zooberries/htm/fiona.htm ------------------------------ From: Mike Connell Date: Thu, 12 Sep 1996 20:05:32 -0400 Subject: Why Jewel never plays "Adrian" Fellow EDAs, Recently Random@frugal.com wrote an EMAIL to Hiranya thru the list requesting that Jewel sing "Adrian" at a show in honor of a friend of hers/his(?) who had died.
