Hi all, I found this in my old emails from friends..Thought you might enjoy it.... ON THE ROLE OF BEAUTY AND HANDSOMENESS IN LOVE "If you want to be loved by somebody who isn't already in your family, it doesn't hurt to be beautiful." Anita C., age 8 "It isn't always just how you look. Look at me. I'm handsome like anything and I haven't got anybody to marry me yet." Brian, age 7 "Beauty is skin deep. But how rich you are can last a long time." Christine, age 9 REFLECTIONS ON THE NATURE OF LOVE "Love is the most important thing in the world, but baseball is pretty good too." Greg, age 8 HOW DO PEOPLE IN LOVE TYPICALLY BEHAVE? "Mooshy ... like puppy dogs ... except puppy dogs don't wag their tails nearly as much." Arnold, age 10 "When a person gets kissed for the first time, they fall down and they don't get up for at least an hour." Wendy, age 8 "All of a sudden, the people get movies fever so they can sit together in the dark." Sherm, age 8 CONCERNING WHY LOVERS OFTEN HOLD HANDS "They want to make sure their rings don't fall off because they paid good money for them." Gavin, age 8 "They are just practicing for when they might have to walk down the aisle someday and do the holy matchimony thing." John, age 9 CONFIDENTIAL OPINIONS ABOUT LOVE "I'm in favor of love as long as it doesn't happen when 'Dinosaurs' is on television." Jill, age 6 "Love is foolish ... but I still might try it sometime." Floyd, age 9 "Yesterday I kissed a girl in a private place ... We were behind a tree." Carey, age 7 "Love will find you, even if you are trying to hide from it. I been trying to hide from it since I was five, but the girls keep finding me." Dave, age 8 "I'm not rushing into being in love. I'm finding fourth grade hard enough." Regina, age 10 THE PERSONAL QUALITIES YOU NEED TO HAVE IN ORDER TO BE A GOOD LOVER "Sensitivity don't hurt." Robbie, age 8 "One of you should know how to write a check. Because, even if you have tons of love, there is still going to be a lot of bills." Ava, age 8 SOME SUREFIRE WAYS TO MAKE A PERSON FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU "Tell them that you own a whole bunch of candy stores." Del, age 6 "Shake your hips and hope for the best." Camille, age 9 "Yell out that you love them at the top of your lungs ... and don't worry if their parents are right there." Manuel, age 8 "Don't do things like have smelly, green sneakers. You might get attention, but attention ain't the same thing as love." Alonzo, age 9 "One way is to take the girl out to eat. Make sure it's something she likes to eat. French fries usually works for me." Bart, age 9 Isn't it cute?

I used to do that with some groups/artists that I really loved, and it didn't work. They just kinda got scared, I guess... Now, I just listen to the music I like, and if they like it, then they'll ask questions and I'll answer them. But I won't try to force them to like a singer/group that I like. It's up to them alone to be a fan or not. I'll just merely play their music whenever I want to hear it.

What you are looking for is called an Lpad, and you can get one at Radio Shack. It looks like a 3" diameter volume knob, and it can go outside the speaker. It's the safest way to go. Now on to the details :) You can do without the Lpad. You can hook up the speakers in series to give the amp a 12 ohm "resistance." _______ _______ amp pos----| 4 ohm |----| 8 ohm |----amp neg ------- ------- Hooking them up in parallel will give a 2.66 ohm load (this is bad!) _______ amp pos----| 4 ohm |------amp neg | ------- | | _______ | |--| 8 ohm |---| ------- Don't hook them up in parallel unless your amp is rated for 2 ohms. I have done this in the past several times. Speakers do not give a fixed resistance. That's why it's called impedance. Due to the dynamic nature of the circuit the resistance will vary, so you don't have to worry about being exactly 4 or 8 ohms. That's just a rating. Some amps are sensitive, so your milage may vary. Hook it up and see if it sounds okay. Different configurations/impedences will affect how the speakers reproduce sound. What you have to watch out for is too little resistance- don't go under 4 ohms. You may notice the speakers have less output at the same volume level with the series hookup- this makes sense since your amp is seeing a greater impedance. If you have questions let me know.

I'm gonna sell the ticket. Don't think me horrible, I intend to use the money wisely. My mother's house was damaged due to recent flooding here in KY. I'm sure you heard about it on the news. I am going to give my mother several hundred dollars to help her replace the carpet and various other things that were destroyed by that nasty, funky water in her basement. It seems to me that it is the best balance of doing something good for my mother and also being pragmatic about the whole thing. What's that say about me. . .

She said it's the best thing she's ever been given. >> I agree with James about the hand-made gift from the heart. On Mine and Rob's first valentines day (waaayyy back in high school :-) he decorated my locker with construction paper hearts with messages on each one. When I got to my locker, I knew he'd been there (I could smell his cologne - which was enough to make me weak in the knees :-) and almost cried when I saw what he had done. He had also gotten me some flowers - just a simple bouquet a school organization was selling. I still have those hearts (At least I did before our basement flooded last Spring, so I'm not sure I still do....). It is definitely still my fondest memory of valentine's day. Thanks James, for bringing back that memory once again. I'll be grinning for hours ;-) Love to all, xoxoxoxox, Tammy :-) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Mar 1997 14:33:57 -0500 From: "Wojtek Kowalewski" Subject: SJC: Motivational Pressentation Hey Everybody First of all, sorry for being so quiet lately, didn't really have much time for anything more than school in the last couple of days. Today, like every year at our school, there was a presentation which included hollywood stars and musicicans telling us the do's and don't of life ( do drink a lot of alcohol, or was it don't drink???) Well i was so bored out of my mind that I really don't remeber. Well just as i was falling asleep, watching the large screen video in the dark gym, a voice broke through the speakers that just woke me up,and got my full attention. That angelic voice was Jewel singing WWSYS. If that is not motivational and positive enough, I don't know what is. Has anyone had such an assembly at their school (most likely Canada), if so what did you think?. Well I have to go, keep in touch.

It's on from 9-10 PM. I think that it'll be just a 5-10 minute segment with her that they've shown bits of before. It's channel 22 or 12 in most places around Maryland. Sorry about the crossposting and the nonrelevance outside of the area.

According to BASS, Jewel's April 1 show in Berkeley is sold out. I waited to get tickets in an attempt to find someone to go with me, but I waited too long. I'm hoping that someone here has an extra, so I don't have to put myself at the mercy of the scalpers. thanks! tim ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Mar 1997 15:22:17 -0500 (EST) From: CornflkGl@aol.com Subject: Jewel picture in Rolling Stone This has probably been said already, but I'm gonna say it again anyway, and if it HASN'T been said, hopefully someone will get it over to the News list... There's a picture of Jewel at the Grammy's in the April 17th issue of Rolling Stone ( with Beck on the cover ). It's on page 22. Jewel is standing in between Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots and Steve Winwood. The caption says : " Strange crew: Scott Weiland, Jewel, her dress and Steve Winwood". You can see her entire dress, and it doesn't look immodest ( but we all know the truth ;) ). That's all :) Rachel :) There was Jewel's explanation for her see-through dress: ''Sometimes I don't know when to feel fear. Tomorrow I'll be going, 'What was I thinking?'' "What was I thinking ? What was I, blind ? When I bought this outfit I must have been temporarily out of my mind What was I thinking ? Look at this dress ! I'm taking up drinking - My life is a mess.

My brother. He overcame an abundant amount of difficulties in school and learning as well as having difficulties with our dad. When he was a kid he wouldn't write and now he finds solace in it. I wish I had his talent. Well at least I like what he writes and I'm glad he shares it with me. Just wanted to share it with all of you. tom (the unimaginative one) >> That's great that your brother found solace in writing. So do I. I started writing poetry after my dad died. It's my way of venting and healing, a way to heal the hurts. It's almost like his parting gift to me. I have written 64 poems in the last six years, and people tell me I ought to be published. I don't know, it's just the writing itself that is enough. Once it's out, I've given what I could, taken what I needed, and move on. Writing is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and it's a gift I cherish very dearly. If I only had the talent Jewel had to put my words to music and be able to sing them, that would be a dream come true. By the way, I'm new here, this is my first post. Enjoying what I've seen so far!! I didn't get to see Jewel here in Chicago on the 20th, but that's all right. I saw her last year and it was wonderful. Besides, the 20th was the Great American Meatout, and it was more important to me to leaflet on that day. No offense to Jewel, though. I did listen to her album that day :) It was the Spring equinox, a very powerful day, so I made sure to stay postitive and send out good energy all day. Hope it's a great year for everyone!!

Since Mike's netiquette site has gone up, I've been getting a whole bunch more newbies. I just recently switched to digest, so I'll finally be able to stop deleting mail from lost newbies 'cause I think it's a list thing. Anyway, list vets, I NEED YOU !! Let me just say one more time that being an adoptive parent is VERY EASY. Your responsibilities as an adoptive parent are : - -- being nice to a newbie and answering any questions he/she has - -- watching your newbie on the list- and then nicely correcting any list etiquette problems they have ( like posting 4 one-sentence posts in a day ) THAT'S IT ! you, as a parent, do NOT have to : - -- make any tapes for your newbie ( although it's nice ) - -- invite your newbie over for sleepovers - -- literally ADOPT your newbie as a new family member - -- induct your newbie into the secret order of the Harris Clan It's not even hard to become a parent. No scary environment or background checks. I only ask a few things of adoptive parents : - -- Familiarity with the story of how JewelStock came to be, whether or not they attended - -- What Jewel's middle name is ( this one's REALLY easy ) - -- The TRUE story behind the Harris Brothers ( which I didn't learn until months after I'd joined the list, and I'd met them both ) - -- List etiquette If someone asks me to be a parent and they don't seem too very responsible themselves, they're gonna be refused. It's not that I have the right to judge anyone, but I'm not gonna let someone who only says, ( literally ) "Poop, poop, poop" when they post adopt anyone else. Can you imagine ? IF you are interested in becoming an adoptive parent, please write to me with "AAN Parent" in the subject line. I'll send you a little survey to fill out so your newbie can find out more about you, send you a copy of the survey your newbie filled out, and voila ! A pretty little nuclear family you will be !!
