It's like... she's made conscientious statements and she's from Alaska, so we'll put her in a Greenpeace shirt... she's written sad songs, so she's suicidal.... she's a woman, so she hates men... come on! Satire's bite suffers when it's not based on a keen insight...>> I just want to say that everything is ignorant of MAD - which makes it so funny.. Seriously they don't really care what they know and what they don't know.. It's just a comic, it's meant to be funny and make fun of people - and it is.. it does.. I've always liked it because it's sick humor nobody else would think of.. and they get away with it.. so honestly let's not start a big thread on this because some people obviously don't have the same sick sense of humor as some people (like me) take care - -linda the lovable "angel" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Jul 1998 23:01:31 EDT From: SRM420@aol.com Subject: ? EDA's Do any of you know what or who jewels songs are about? I know what daddy is about, and i know little sister too. But does anyone know about the others?
