I don't know if this is exactly what you're looking for, but if you'd like to write an anonymous e-mail to AOL and report him to them, here's how you can do it: Send mail to: remailer@remailer.nl.com Subject: Anonymous Mail Place two colons on the first line of you body. On the 2nd line, type this: Anon-To: [e-mail address you're sending the mail to]. Follow those 2 lines with a blank line, and then start your message. So an example would be this: To: remailer@remailer.nl.com Subject: Anonymous Mail [body area] :: Anon-To: name@domain.com This is where you start your actual message... Hope this helps.

I've been off the computer all weekend and I got back to 177 messages today...I've been wading through the thankful lists, and I think it's an awesome idea. I myself make a list of fifty things each night that I am thankful. It's important to think of at least fifty because then you get past the obvious and thank Source/God for little things like your toenails and the way the bark peels off of is-it-Birch trees? So here is my list of the things I am most thankful for at this moment, generalized so that I don't list EVERYTHING. Yeah. 1. Me, Who I am and all that makes up me, all my talents and characteristics, my body, my mind, my soul, my heart. 2. Opportunity and Promise; the fact that I can be anything and do anything I want, that all avenues are open to me, that I have CHOICES. 3. Music, song (an AWESOME mode of expression!), and Jewel. Nuff said. 4. People who are awesome. This includes all the EDAs!!!, my roommate Kate, my boyfriend Fizz (yes you read correctly), my best friend Cathy, my family (they finally understand me!!), and all my friends here at college 5. Food and drink. It keeps me alive and going and besides that tastes real cool. NUTELLA RULES, Tessa! So glad other people are aware of this. 6. God, synchronicity, the way the Universe works. God created me and everyone else and gave us all everything and orchestrates things so that they all work out perfectly if we just trust Him(Her) and even if we don't trust Her(Him) they work out alright in the end (it just takes longer because S/He has to work around all of our nervous-negative energy. 7. Nature: trees, grass, water bodies, birds, animals, air, earth, the Spirits all around us. LISTEN TO THEM. 8. God's Truth, though it is revealed to different people in different ways. You can always tell it because the underlying idea is Love. 9. Angels. You, me, all the EDAs, the person you hate at work, the Angels without physical bodies (like my Muranya), EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE. We are all Angels inside. Remember that, and treat yourself and others accordingly. Thank you for reading. I felt it was important. May the Lord God bless you always, Keeping you forever near; May S/He fill your life with Love and Light And quiet all your fear. Christina M.

YOu see, about 2 weeks ago I started seeing this guy, Eddie, and I was sooooooooooo happy. It seemed like he really planned on sticking around for a while, something I'm not used to, so I let him into my heart. Well, last night was our first night back from spring break, and we had a good time. Yesterday was also my birthday. he was sweet as always, and he said he missed me a lot over the break. Today, after the worst first day of classes EVER, I come home to Eddie being verrry depressed, so I asked him what was wrong. At first, he said nothing. Then a liitle while later, he comes to my room and tells me that he got a very shocking letter in the mail from an ex girlfriend that says that she is pregnant with his child. Since his father and mother got married because she was pregnant, he's afraid his parents will make him marry her. he is only 18, and I am 20. He says he has to go home and talk about this with her, but I can't help feeling like this is the end of the world. I have been crying non-stop since I found out, and I really just need to know what I can do to get over this. I keep hoping that this is all a bad dream and I will wake up soon. HELP ME PLEASE before I go insane:'o( I keep listening to YWMFM and foolish games, its all I have, my CD's aren't back here yet, and I get sooooooo sad. what can I do? I hope as EDA's you guys can help me in some way. Sorry about my depressing rambling, but I need help.

Nicotine love, Emily, and that cute fast one asking if anyone wanted to catch a cold with her, and silver lining was great! LIttle Sister is one of my absolute favs, and she played it so great! And the variation on WWSYS was sooo awesome! That was my first Jewel expirence (live) and it was so great. And the rugburns were awesome too!!! They were so funny....Steve was hilarious, and stinky's facial expressions were really funny. Does anyone know where I could find the rugburns cd?

MTVixen: Hi, Jewel! JEWELoxoxo: Hi MTVixen: Well this audience has plenty to ask you, here we go! The first question tonight... JEWELoxoxo: ready MTVog: Jim007bon asks: You seem to have been rather an solitary child and teenager. If so, how do you feel that has shaped your art? JEWELoxoxo: in silence we hear who we will become. we creat ourselves in silence , because it allows us to hear ourselves. MTVog: CoDee2U wants to know: what do you take with you on the road to make you feel 'at home'? teddy bear, favorite pillow? JEWELoxoxo: Picture of the mountains back home, picture of my horse, eagle feather, silk pillow case. MTVixen: TruthfulA asks: First of all Jewel thank you for spending the time here on line, all your fans appreciate it....Now my question.... Were you surprised or even overwhelmed by the way your career has taken off and the great positiveness about your album ? JEWELoxoxo: YES I never thought sincerity would go that far. MTVog: Daisy963 asks: I think you are the greatest!! I just want to know how you would label your music, (pop,rock..etc.)? JEWELoxoxo: Honest? I am human I am all those things MTVog: Lovescoob asks: Have you met any other performers that you listened to when you were and aspiring artist JEWELoxoxo: BOB DYLAN, Ella Fitzgerald got away MTVixen: JenaLeigh asks: when u arent recording your songs, what other bands do you like to listen to? JEWELoxoxo: Ricki Lee jones, the replacements, and the Rugburns and baroque classical music MTVog: Spy flowe asks: Jewel, how's the book of your poetry going? I can't wait for it, you're a great writer JEWELoxoxo: Thank you, it is hard to find time to collect all the poetry. There is a small book of about twenty poems for sale at my shows. MTVog: Funnybon3 wants to know: What odd jobs did you have before making it in music? JEWELoxoxo: Bucking hay bails, ditch digging, cow milking, waitressing, secretary (which I sucked at) no laughing MTVixen: MAXMOUZE asks: Will "Foolish Games" be released as a single? JEWELoxoxo: Most likely. Would you like that? MTVog: HGrison asks: Love your music, do you find it draining to sing with so much emotion? JEWELoxoxo: Actually, it feeds me. It replenishes the redundancy of "the Biz", allows me to be sincere in an arena that isn't particularly sincere MTVog: Allsportj asks: was it hard going through with your parents divorce and do you think that's what inspired you to become a singer?? JEWELoxoxo: It was hard, but it caused me to depend on writing so that I could come to terms with my emotions it was like my therapist, and allowed me to become intimate with myself it is also to this day my best friend and greatest freedom I encourage everyone to write so that we can understand ourselves, instead of looking and others depending on others MTVixen: ApacheMis asks: You said that you have Horse(s). What kind do you have?? JEWELoxoxo: MUTT, appalusa, arabian and ? MTVog: Jmsdean17 asks: How long did the video for "You were mant for me" take to shoot? How many dresses did you rip? JEWELoxoxo: 1 day 1 dress MTVixen: ANJAFort asks: are there going to be any b-sides on any of the singles? JEWELoxoxo: Good question! I hope so MTVog: Travis404 wants to know: Are your songs based on true stories? JEWELoxoxo: Sometimes, usually it is a mixture of my life and what i see around me, none of our emotions are particularly unique. (we all have fear, lust, hope) It is mainly our expression of them that is unique MTVog: B Corp 00 asks: What would you say to someone who likes to write music and is an aspiring artist? JEWELoxoxo: I think cream rises to the top, do it because you love it, not for fame, and be the best in what ever town you are in following your passion is what matters. the universe will provide (help me I am drifting) MTVixen: TheGoocha asks: When's the new album coming out? (Xan) JEWELoxoxo: If I release foolish games as a third single, then, it could be a while, but I hope to put out something (an EP) in the meantime! MTVog: MediaWhiz asks: I heard your performance as Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz at the Lincoln Center benefit and thought it was excellent..any plans for more Broadway or acting?? JEWELoxoxo: I was glad the show only played once, and to get back to my own writing, HOWEVER, the rehersal and the show was very satisfying. But i think I would rater go into screen acting (Less redundancy) MTVixen: Seaplane asks: Why is the version of "You Were Meant for Me" on your CD different than the one I hear on the radio? JEWELoxoxo: because I can't stand my singing on the album version. plus, it is always fun to try something new MTVog: Chew u ou asks: I notice you value freedom and the right to vote. How did you become so in tune to polotics?

New mom/rocker Etheridge will perform the show's theme song during opening credits. Lang will play the role of a crooning waitress at "a coffeehouse frequented by lesbians," according to Disney. The episode will be taped tomorrow, March 7. This star-studded cast, which also includes Oprah Winfrey and Laura Dern, is expected to draw a larger-than-usual audience, which will, in turn, increase its ratings. "GLAAD is thrilled that these well-known and well-respected stars will help bring Ellen Morgan's coming out as a lesbian into America's living rooms," said Chastity Bono, GLAAD entertainment media director. "Now, this history-making episode will bring a lead lesbian character into the increasingly inclusive American television family." ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Mar 1997 21:52:55 -0500 From: capdetar@westol.com (chris a detar) Subject: jewel on her grammy gown according to People magazine Jewel felt that her Gianfranco Ferre gown was "Very angelic.

I made a crude tape out of 2 dozen songs downloaded from the net, but you can hardly make out the lyrics. I would like to obtain the Rare Angels tapes, the Innerchange Days tapes, or just some concert tapes. I have been unable to find anything by the Rugburns. From what I've heard of theirs, they sound like a great band. Does anyone have any tips on how I could get anything of theirs? Also, I have never had the oportunity to see Jewel in concert. From what I've seen, Jewel's tour doesn't take her very near where I live. If anyone knows if she is playing near Omaha, NE, please E-mail me at Ghedan@aol. Finally, this is my thankful list: 1. My family, one of the most screwed up families in the world. (If anyone thinks theirs is more screwed up, contact me and I'll set you straight.) 2. My laptop, which I express all my feelings through. 3. The incredible and soothing music of Jewel (who else), which relieves my stress. 4. My friends, who I can always rely on for a laugh. 5. My endless suply of books, by an endless list of writers, which I can lose myself in anytime.6. All the good, decent people out their, EDAs included, who manage to make this corupt world a bearable place to live in. 6. The sanctuary of my room, where I can shut myself away from the rest of the world when things get to thick. 7. My vivid imagination, which provides yet another sanctuary for me. Thank you to all those who listened to my ramblings, Travis Hepburn P.S. If anyone would be kind enough to give some help to a newbie in need of it, please E-mail me. ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V2 #173 ***************************
