Sagatory rape would probably be the rape of Bob Sagat, which I'm all for. As for statutory rape.....that's a touchy subject. For the most part, I believe it is a good law; it's purpose is to protect minors, and it does. Of course, there are a few shortcomings.....I once dated a girl who was older than me by a few months...she was already 18, I was still 17. Statutory rape? Hardly. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 10:12:29 -0400 (EDT) From: Zelda6248@aol.com Subject: Re: jewel back in coffeehouses? i just figured out what pieces of you was........duh.......so i'm a little dence :) - -kirsten ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 10:19:00 -0400 From: Paul Noble Subject: NJC: Thoughts on the Southeast -Reply I'm in Charlotte, and yes I'm envious of those wonderful folks up north too, and I'm all for some sort of get together closer to home. How about Labor day weekend? Carowinds is here in Charlotte and could be cool, as well as (my preference) meeting up somewhere around Asheville (about 2 hours from Charlotte) and checking out the NC mountains (great this time of year!!!). Lots of options. Camping is a cool idea too. There more things to go see and do in the NC mountains than one could do in a weekend. As a special treat, my band (or an acoustic sub-part of it) would be willing to play. You wont believe our singer and how good she is. Perhaps there are others performers that would too. I can think of several in charlotte. I definitely think music and musicians should be included in some fashion. Just how many of you EDA's on the list are from this area or would be interested in a get together here? Let me or Dan hear from you!!! - -Paul Noble >>> Chaplain Dan 07/21/97 07:59pm >>> Ya know mayb why there are not as many EDA's down here could be due to the fact all we see or hear of the Angel is on TV or the once in a blue moon appearances down in this corner of the country. I know that it would be nice if we could actually get together more than just when Jewel is around. Any of ya'll from the south have any special occasions occuring anytime soon? Could be an idea to get together. All these northern get togethers is starting to make me envious of the closeness up there. Oh well, I guess that comes with the territory. Til next time on these thoughts. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 07:31:51 -0700 From: Casey Hansen Subject: Innerchange Is the Innerchange still there?

Danke, Casey ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Jul 1997 23:15:25 -0400 (EDT) From: Linda Subject: Bearsville '97 and the addition - LINSTOCK :) Well, well, well - Bearsville '97 kicked ass! :) The road trip up and back was pretty damn cool and 4 of us EDAs decided to hold Linstock - so our friend Thiiiiiiiiiir-ZA! wouldn't be left out of the weekend festivities :) Well first I got woken up by a call from dear Tom Miles :) "Hey are you up yet?" Me: "*groan* I just woke up" Tom: "Really? you were supposed to be ready by 9.. anyway we're parked behind a grey oldsmobile.. you have a topaz in your driveway right?" Me: "Oh gosh, yeah..." Tom: "Well we're right in front of your house now" Me: "You should have called *grrrrrowwwl* aahghhhh *sleepystretcynoises*" Tom: "Well get up then" Me: "I'm getting up... it'll take me a while to get ready" Tom: "how long?" Me: "oh about an hour.. *groan*" Tom: *laugh* "An hour?!?!" Me: "nah call me back in 15 minutes" Tom: "You want me to call you long distance when we're sitting in the car right in front of your house?" Me: "Yeah" Tom: "*groan* Ok fine" And then my dad went out and my mom too and they all got acquainted and explained the trip and i was inside brushing my teeth and packing my cds into their respective cases and i put my stuff on the couch and realized I needed a band-aid "hahaha" i thought "The perfect excuse to go out there and be all "wellwellwell"" so I went out and was like saying "Mom I need a... bandaid..." Hehehe i had a crush on tom from the moment I saw him.. :) hehehe so i pulled him and Josh inside my room to check out my walls - covered in pictures :) it was really cool :) So we got on the road towards Eric's and I told little stories about Bowcraft amusement park... and i was singing along to Surfacing.. and we got Eric (Crash Boy) and were driving around to go pick up Pete and realized that whatever town is near Eric's smells really yucky like old eggs... Tom said it was sulfur or something - whatever it was it was grooooooss.. And then Eric proceeded to yell "hey baby" out the window to any sexy senior citizens walking around. I can see him now "oh baby i looove your orthopedic sneakers" "theeeeeey were on sale, sonny" Anyway we got to Brooklyn and it was beautiful going over the bridge... I was looking out the windows into the sparkling bay (that i know isn't clean, but just let me dream) and It was amazing - I could see all along the jersey shore :) We got to petes and when he went to shake my hand he made me spill iced tea all over myself in a suggestive spot and got my shirt so i took it off and rode in a bikini top the whole way up there... hahahah am i the temptress or what? :) OH and Eric - thanks for sticking your feet into my space... that was sarcastic :) We got to stop at a rest stop and i got to give tom a big hug that i needed because the drive was long and i needed hugs :) it was just because.. well.. just because - that's the best reason for anything and then when he went to get gas - that was when I decided to tell everyone my little secret which Tom didn't find out until we got to the campsite... hehehehe that was cool... I got to meet the lovely Stephanie and I became her sister!!! whoowhoo another one added :) heheh She's amazingly sweet and it was kinda funny seeing her tanked hahaha :) SNAPPLE LADY!!!!!! Everyone was great - Tammy was a wonderful EDA mommy... a few people I didn't really get formally introdcued too but they were really great.. Mike Connell of course - Dennis harris who I couldn't help but notice was one of the funiest and coolest people there :) Who else? hmm Laura was nice, and everyone was just cool - Kelly's got a cool tongue ring, Steve has awesome hair, Kim is so adorable :) hehehe umm like Erica had a nice fall - but she survived!!! and like uhhh hmmmm gosh mental block... hmmm other cool people.. well EVERYONE was cool... Abel - i wished i coulda gotten formally introduced to you - Thirza tells me so much cool stuff about ya :) hehehe Everyone was great - so like I hate picking individual people cuz I know someone's gonna write back saying "YOU FORGOT ME!!!" I like Ted's dog... :) I love doggies... hehehe i have 2 oh yeah ... I'm sorry for monopolizing Mr. Tom Miles from all teh EDAs who wanted to see him and talk to him :) While you guys were having fun in the campfire we were connecting and I was getting sick from something i ate or something *shrug* But I feel much better.. I'm kinda sorry i couldn't join everyone but well.. there's always another gathering :) The night was great.. not too cold... and it was great sleeping next to the ultra-warm Tom :) hehehe i could curl up next to him and sleep all day and night :) Yeah hehehe i wrote a lot up there too - little poems and stuff :)... it was kinda cool tho except when I spilled my diet Sprite all over my scrunchies and my bookbag... :( The morning was cool - we took Laura up to her bus stop.. and we drove around and savored the beautiful view before we took up to go home... if you ever noticed... when the light hits the mountains just right... the ones farthest away turn out lighter.. but it's amazingly beautiful :) And me and Tom decided to comment and take words out of each other's mouths :) (We did a lot of that - it kicked ass!!!!!) We left then... took back off to Brooklyn and we stopped at a rest stop and got stuff from the newstand... the US with jewel and sarah in it and a raspberry iced tea was my purchase - which i shared.. my right leg got sunburned but my left leg stayed normal... that was cool We dropped Pete off and the sweetheart gave me his Sarah McLachlan promo posters - they're hung up on my wall and I love staring at it - Sarah is amazing :) Linstock - the mini-gathering so Thirza wouldn't feel left out :) - ------------ Then we got to THIRZA'S HOUSE!!!!! !WHOOWHOO!!!! We drove to the mall there and stuff - King's Plaza - for food.. and we parked next to a very dusty windowed car so I wrote EDAs RULE on it.. which Thirza followed with a "I love you man!" and Tom did a Peace, love, Jewel thing :) We got food at some place with Robin in the name of it hehehe and i got just a soda cuz silly me.. i wanted to save my $$ for lilith fair seats because I misunderstood Tom about them... and he said i already had a ticket from him which was cool so like i felt bad cuz i didn't get food then.. but i had some of his ribs (yum yum yum!!!!) Thirza was very excited for some reason :) hehehe I broke out in a cry/laughter mix thing for some reason i forgot... hehehe but it was all pretty cool.. I came back from the bathroom growling "THey don't have a rag machine :(" Which sent the table into hooting laughter... Then Thirza came back and jumped into her seat and knocked the A-1 off the table :) Then we got a sundae and had a great little moment there :) it was so cool Then we parked at the circus thingy and Thirza and Josh wandered while me and Tom hung out in the car reading my poetry and stuff.. thirza got a glowy headband thingy.. that was cool ANd from there we went through an hour or twos worth of traffic to get to times square... When we got there we made incriminating phone calls to some people.. nobody answered... we skipped across the street but before that we had bathroom fun :) tee hee... *flush* "WHEEEEEEEE!!!" And we like to hold doors shut when Thirza wants to get out :) We got nice pictures taken in the elevator :) We walked all around TImes Square... to look at stuff - get heckled by a bunch of artistes... (They were good drawings tho - you can't deny them that) And then we had a new york hot dog and the guy behind us said "As long as it doesn't get up and walk away i'll have it" :) hehehe and we walked and walked and turned and i saw someone spelled Sarah McLachlan's name wrong on a little sign thing and i looked up and my jaw dropped.. The Virgin Megastore... wow.... it was open too so we bumrushed the place and got in there and out in a matter of minutes... hehehe i got the Bush import CD Greedy Fly single with a goldie remix of "Swallowed" and the 16 oz. demo version of "cold contagious" on there - from Australia - - for 13 bucks.. and Tom got his sister 7 cd (gosh ppl that sing with clenched jaws annoy me) i was gonna buy this 7 dollar magazine with Sarah in it... (like EVERY magazine there had her in it) but I was gonna save my money.. hold on how much do i have left wow... $1.40 out of 20 dollars :) i love being charged 2 dollars for iced teas at rest stops that cost 1 dollar at any normal place... THirza went nuts with Josh's camera taking lots and lots of pictures of me and tom walking down the street... we got drinks and walked back to our car and stuff.. we had lotsa lotsa fun :) i'm trying to remember specifics :) eheheheh ooh it's soo hard to remember when i got like no sleep :) We dropped thirza off and got me home by 4:30 a.m. and I gave Tom snacks for his ride home - sugar-packed so he wouldn't fall asleep... and my dad was an asshole about the late-home thing... so all i gotta say to that is screw him (excuse the vulgarity) To those that don't know already - TOM MILES IS MY BOYFRIEND - DEAL WITH IT :P Because I've gotten a lot of disapprovals already adn I think you should understand it before you want to make up dumb reasons for not liking it.... i'm happy - he's happy - so you be happy too! EVERYONE BE HAPPY!!!!!! :) i wub yew tom.. ;) please reply and let's share cool stories and start email strings! *hehehe* YEAH!!! ROCK ON!!!!

At the last St Louis show (March 21st), what was for sale was the Tiny Lights Tour Book, which had some poetry and some lyrics from the PoY CD. What is on sale *now* at the Lilith Fair shows, and will be at her next headlining tour (according to Bibi), is a complete PoY lyric book, plus lyrics to 4 or 5 other songs (forgot which ones) plus a ton of new pictures. Also according to Bibi, this item would be made available through mail order when the Jewel Newsletter is launched (no latest word on that) The poetry BOOK that has been mentioned (which was to coincide with the release of the new CD), is not out yet, and last I heard from Bibi was that it would maybe be out in the late fall or early winter, and will be available in bookstores.

Bring the people to the music." Cindy Lee Berryhill and Elizabeth Hummel, two singer-songwriters based in San Diego, California, are embarking on a new kind of musical tour in the northeastern U.S.A. in early August 1997, thanks to the Internet and the enthusiastic and supportive fans of their singer-songwriter friend Jewel Kilcher. A group of over 1000 Jewel fans who call themselves the EDAs (Everyday Angels) send personal messages to each other daily on an Internet "mailing list" that differs from most music discussion groups on the Internet in the participants' idealism, their friendliness towards each other (getting together in person on occasions other than Jewel performances) and their interest in (and growing enthusiasm for) other musicians from the "scene" (or anyway city) where Jewel found her muse, such as Berryhill, Hummel, Steve Poltz of the Rugburns (co-author of Jewel's huge hit "You Were Meant for Me") and others. Berryhill and Hummel found themselves with a few extra days in Boston last April when a Berryhill gig in Albany was rescheduled at the last minute. They contacted an EDA friend in Los Angeles who, with 24 hours notice, arranged a party at a private home in Boston via the Internet that brought together 20 EDAs from all over New England. The ladies sang and played for four hours and the audience responded so enthusiastically that soon the Internet was ringing with requests from around the U.S. for another "EDA Cafe." Berryhill and Hummel responded by offering to play a "Living Room Tour" of EDA house parties if the hosts would cover travel expenses by charging $10 per attendee and if logistical issues of travel distance and time could be worked out. So, at a time when the live music business in the U.S. is having great difficulty getting people out of their homes to attend big-name concert tours, a new form of musical D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) is being pioneered by Berryhill and Hummel, who will play Old Bridge NJ, Lancaster PA, Cincinnati, Greenfield IN, South Bend IN (the only non-EDA living room show, organized by the father of a young woman who saw Berryhill perform on a visit to San Diego), Toledo, Cape Cod, Boston and Long Island between Aug. 1 and Aug. 11. Some would-be EDA hosts were disappointed when their cities couldn't be fit into the low-budget itinerary, but plans are already being made for future Living Room Tours, and Berryhill and Hummel have promised to play for what seems likely to become a large EDA gathering on a Canadian island between Vancouver and Seattle, made possible by Berryhill's scheduled appearance a few days later at Seattle's annual Bumbershoot Festival. Elizabeth Hummel is a well-established performer in San Diego clubs and coffee houses whose first album, The Cauldron, was released in 1995. Cindy Lee Berryhill has released four albums, including 1996's Straight Outta Marysville; England's Record Collector magazine says she is "as unconventional and inspired as any rock performer in America...tomorrow's cult artist today." Jewel Kilcher has sold more than five million copies of her first album, Pieces of You. The EDAs offer hope that Internet communities are not limited to sitting in front of computer screens. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 11:30:29 -0400 (EDT) From: BillYeh@aol.com Subject: Favorite movie quotes, FG video How about: Snell: "Is it safe?" Dustin Hoffman's character: "No, it's not safe. Very dangerous." (pause) Snell: "Is it safe?" DH's character: "Yes. It's very safe. It's so safe you wouldn't believe it." (from "Marathon Man") or: Inigo: "Then why are you smiling?" Wesley: "Because I know something you don't." Inigo: "Oh? What's that?" Wesley: "I'm not left-handed either!" Vizzini: "You've heard of Plato? Socrates? Aristotle?" Wesley: "Yes." Vizzini: "Morons." Inigo: "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." Count Rugen: "Stop saying that!" Vizzini: "Stop it now, I mean it!" Fezzik: "Anybody got a peanut?" (from "The Princess Bride") or: Campbell Scott's character: "Does this have to do with Andy?" Kyra Sedgewick's character: "No, of course not." CS's character: "He probably has a ponytail, doesn't he." KS's character: "No!" (he does) CS's character: "He's probably Mr. Sensitive Ponytail Guy, isn't he?" (he is). KS's character: "I don't know what you're talking about." (from "Singles") On another front, despite the fact that I don't like the FG video, I have to say that it is better than the mix of studio performance footage/ Batman & Robin movie footage that I expected prior to release. The video is starting to grow on me, I guess. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 10:35:23 -0500 (EST) From: SM_KARTALOPO@ACAD.FANDM.EDU Subject: Bearsville97/EDA Lovin': The Last Part OK so it is before 10 AM and I have lost track of letters on the alphabet. So sue me or something. Just do not be expecting the usual caliber of Stephanie eloquence or whatever. it's too early and I am sick. This past weekend was absolutely incredible. It was much needed for me, and it was definitely much welcomed in my life. I love all of you more than you can imagine. I am starting to cry...again. It was so hard for me to say goodbye to all of you, and this feeling that's this mixture of sadness and extreme happiness has been sitting like a lump inside my throat since Sunday. Time stood still this past weekend for me. From the moment I jumped out of Jon's car I felt what I always feel whenever I go to an EDA thing...home. As I looked at everyone and smiled I knew that I had always been with everyone, that we had never parted. It may seem weird to think that, but our souls are always together. They always have been together...because of the love we share as a family, as a community. And time had to move on and I had to wake up from my dream. Seems kind of harsh, you know? But it's all OK. One dream has to end before the next can begin. Lauren Bond and Laura Marion--I love you two so much. And I miss you dearly. We MUST MUST MUST get together, you know? Oh, it was such a great weekend hanging out with you two and getting to know you better. I LOVE YOU! Laura, as soon as I saw you it was like hug hug hug...butterfly...hug hug hug. *Sigh* You are such a beauitiful soul. Lauren...two words: PSYCHIC FAIR. In many ways you and I share some similar personality traits, like that love for any sort of emotional romantic passion that can be found in anyhting...poetry, trees, the stars and moon, anything. I love you. CJ--my little brother. What a sweetheart you are! And you give such wonderful hugs. Sweetie I love you so much. Your soul is gold, love. Never forget that. Sarah--it was so cool to meet you. What a sweetie you are! We had such a blast hanging out in Woodstock...heh...remember the yard sale? Love you babe. Jen--wow. You got to come all the way from TN. You are too much, girl! Next time I see you you MUST do my nails! I love you. Tegan--poke. poke. poke. poke. poke. hee hee hee. I love your tattoo. It was such an awesome weekend being able to see you again and hang out and stuff. I LOVE YOU! Kellyroonie--this is your sista, Stepharooni talking to u. I LOVE YOU!!!!! You are forever my impaled luv, forever my whipped cream mama. =) It was so cool to see you again...just a week after I last saw you! hee hee hee. You BETTER stay in touch or you will have MEEEEEEEE, your sistah, to answer to. =) Abel--my quiet sweetheart. You give awesome awesome awesome hugs. And cool--you're my height! YAY! It was so good to see you again. I love you. Kim--wow it took me travelling two states away to meet someone who lives 10 minutes away form me. You so totally rock. Two words for you: WINE COOLERS. hee hee hee. I can not wait to hang out with you more this summer. hee hee hee...phone calls are FREE for us! YAY! FREE! NO MONEY NEEDED! I LOVE YOU SWEETIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mykle--your enthusiasm is incredible. It was so wonderful to meet you, and thank you for that absolutely beautiful picture of the comet. I will never forget your smile or your sincerity. I love you! Amy--it was good to see you again, girl! I hope that Harris didn't try to turn you into a sheep! ;) I love you. Eric--ahh Eric Montas what can I say? You are a very very sweet person. Fun, too. Always stay true to yourself and to the love in your soul. I love you. Laura Tonn--wow I finally got to meet you in person after long phone calls. The ride up was fun...heh...buying BEACH BALLS in teh grocery store! hee hee hee. Love you sweetie. Linda--wow finally I got to meet one of the two youngest Kartalopoulos sisters. =) You are such a kindhearted girl. Keep your uniqueness and the overwhelming love inside you, and you will never go wrong. I LOVE YOU! Rich Melko--are you SURE I can't keep that flannel?!?!?!? Thanks for letting me borrow it like the whole weekend. You are so kind and caring. I was happy to meet you and to get even some time to talk to you...I look forward to getting to know you better at more and more EDA getherings. I LOVE YOU!!!!!!! John Hickey--finally after all those hours of IRC I get to meet my New Yorker bar tender. hee hee hee. You are so funny and witty! I love you man! Josh Baummer--wow I barely even got to see you! I guess the 'tradition' of driving together in Miles's car to EDA gatherings was put on hold for this event, but I still have so many fond memories of you. I was so happy that you were able to come for the weekend. The gentility in your smile speaks more than you can ever imagine. I love you. Jared--it really was nice to see you again. I wish we had gotten a chance to sit down and talk more like when I met you at Great Adventure. But there's always a phone, there's always email. =) I love you sweetie. Always remember to let your soul be your compass in life. Chris Moynihan, aka K--you are one cool dude. And a man who thinks like me...MOUNTAIN DEW at 9 in the morning...yes...the only way to go is to do the dew. =) =) =) I am so happy that I got to see you again and talk and hang out and get to know you better. The magnanimity of your soul glows throughyour eyes, love. I LOVE YOU! Pete Vassallo, mosquito man, you are such a sweetie. It was so great to see you again and get to know you a bit better. I love you. Tom Proven--you will always be teddy bear to me your hugs are so wonderful. I am so happy that you live close to me I can not begin to show my excitement. I LOVE YOU, man! Tom Miles--my big brother. I am happy that you came this past weekend, I just wish that I could have seen more of you. That hug on Saturday after the group picture was definitely much needed...by both of us. Can words begin to describe how much I love you? Ali--you are one of my favourite all time EDAs and have been since the first time I met you. We have so many wonderful memories together. Remember the magnetic poetry kit? hee hee hee. Next time there is an EDA get together the main objective will *not* be to get Stephanie as tanked as humanly possible. =) =) =) I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so much, sweetie. so much. Crunch--what can I say? Wow. Words are at a loss right now. Sometimes hugs say it all, you know? Yours are incredible, and you have always been such a good friend...you have always treated me with such incredible gentility, and I truly value our friendship. I love you, crunchie. "Mark you are our spark." Tammy--you are always have been and always will be my mom. Your capacity to love is beyond this world. Tears of happiness come to my eyes whenever I think of how much I love you. Rob--wow. Daddy. Do you know how much fun you are when you are totally tanked? hee hee hee. I love you any way, sober, tanked, tired, hyper. Your smile reveals your soul, and for that you are so damn beautiful. I love you. Jon--*time for a deep breath* Since I met you you have been there for me in such incredible ways. The ride up to Bearsville was definitely fun...now the Dead is on my list of CDs to buy. =) =) =) hee hee hee...next time I will not throw the WHOLE BAG of ice out the car window, love.

What do I say to capture the love I feel for you? What do I say to capture the love I feel for EVERYONE? Meeting you in person after the words we exchanged in our emails was so incredible, almost overwhelming. There is this great wealth of something extraordinarily special inside you that is so beautiful it is almost blinding. I do not think I will ever forget those moments talking down by the campfire or your absolutely perfect and incredible hugs that reveal your goodness and the love in your soul.

The beauty of your being is overwhelmingly amazing. What more can I say? I really adore you. I love you. I hope I did not forget anyone.

I want EVERYONE to know how much I love them and how much I cherish every second of this past weekend. It really was incredible. I miss you all so much. I really do. 'goodbye' is such a hard thing for me, even when it isn't a TRUE goodbye. the happiness in my soul that you have all brought to me is astounding. i hope you can someday know all the miracles you are in my life. I LOVE YOU ALL stephanie ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 09:36:29 -0600 (MDT) From: Chopped Liver Subject: Re: Will the real Jewel poetry book pleae stand up?

When I was 15 and dating a 17 year old, I thought the law was the stupidest thing in the world... but looking back at my 15-year-old life I realize that I made a whole ton of big mistakes and stupid judgements and maybe that extra year wouldn't have helped ( the age for statutory rape in Mass is 16 ), but maybe it would have. The law isn't really gonna keep anyone from doing things... especially when you're young, and you assume you're in love, and you THINK you're doing the right things. Looking back to then, I wish I HADN'T done the things I did. I DO feel like I was more ready to handle a sexual relationship when I was 17. I know that everyone's different, though. I've always been very mature for my age, so maybe it's not a maturity issue. I remember having a discussion with a couple of my virgin friends and telling them to NEVER have sex because it hurt too bad. I KNOW now that's not right :). but when I was 15, I just assumed that it was my "job" to do whatever it is my boyfriend wants... and that sex leads to love, blah blah blah. Oh boy... I didn't really mean to get THIS personal :) I think that most 15 year old girls aren't really mentally, but MOSTLY physically, for having sex. There's something about the bones in your body... I think that your hip bones move outwards so your body can be prepared for childbirth, and if you're having sex and your hipbones haven't moved out, it's gonna HURT. Watch some doctor on the list start contradicting me :). Statutory rape isn't a big deal when you're 15 and 16, or something like that. It IS a big deal when you're 15 and 22. You've all heard the "boys and girls mature at a different rate" and "guys hit their sexual peak at 18, girls at 35". you know... there IS a reason why parents don't let their daughters date much older guys when they're in high school. Right now I'm 18 ( 19 in a couple of weeks ) and my boyfriend is 23. At this age it's not a big difference, but if I was 15 and he was 20, it WOULD be a big difference. I know people are gonna disagree with me and say that at 15 they were dating older people and it worked out great for them... well, good for them :). But if I get any letters from any young girls saying " I'm 15 and my boyfriend is 21 and it's all great" I'm gonna get really mad. REALLY mad. People always say "age doesn't matter". I believe that when it comes to two consenting adults... if you're an adult you can be 25 and date and 80 year old and I say, God Bless :). But when you're a teenager... everything is so confusing and weird and messed up and painful and you just don't need any more pain in your life. *phew* OK... I'm done now :). Rachel :) PS- if you disagree or disagree or wanna flame me, please do it off the list... otherwise Mike'll post saying it has nothing to do with Jewel and we're bugging people :) ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V2 #590 ***************************
