I try to stay out of these debates, but this one really has me going.... EDA are fans who feel uplifted and encouraged by Jewel...am I right? Why do some insist on putting her down? We all look tired sometimes, we have all gained weight, we have all had our ups and downs ... why don't we allow her to? She is still human and Jewel has made it very obvious that "she is sensitive and I's like to stay that way." This is the very song that the EDAs got their name from. Give me a break... I truly hope Jewel has not seem any of these recent posts. They are destructive and cruel. Nobody wants to have every move ... every expression ... and yes ... every outfit analyzed. Please! She is human no matter what fame or fortune she may have. Please let her exist as she is and not criticize if she falls short of what you would like her to be. I would not like posts that go to 2000 people all over the world talking about how my stomach hung over my dress, their perceptions of my religion, and whether or not I was married. Jewel will let us know what she wants us to know ... so leave her alone. Help support and encourage her as much as she has for us.

There's: jewel & jewel-digest - general discussion on jewel jewel-news - only the news items eda-thoughts - (ET for short) it has the stories you're talking about, the poems and the helping of each other when we are in need. then there is a jewel project list (can't remember it's name).... and so on...

I have a lot to say right now...and I always forget to post, so here I go... *Leno* Okay the skirt thing, I agree with Kelli the city angel who "started" this discussion. Now I'm GLAD that Jewel is not a stick...HOWEVER...she shouldn't be wearing shirts that are made for sticks! I didn't see Leno (if anybody had the real video please email me!) but the stomach thing just sounded nasty! But personally I think Jewel should pig out! She's got the money! But anywayz... **Life Uncommon** I personally like the album version better. I think it sounds like Jewel is trying too hard. I like the "acoustic" version better :) And so does Bath & Body Works. Cause when me and my friend Beth went in there, soon as I walked in, the album version of Life Uncommon came on. So of course I started singin and everybody stared but its ok cause I love Jewel. (The weird thing is I had just bought the single in Sam Goody before we went in there.) ***Religion*** I don't think you can answer this question and get the same answer. I think it depends on what part of Jewel's life you look at. I feel the same way with my life so far, for as short as my life might be (I'm 14.) For instance, I'm technically Roman Catholic, however some of my friends (NO THEY ARENT FREAKS) have been looking into Wicca. And although it was looking into it too, the spells kinda scared me and I decided that I wanted to go to heaven and Wicca wasn't gonna get me there. So I don't think we can really judge Jewel on religion. I think we should take her perspective as they come. ****WSIT**** Does anybody know where I could find the NEW WSIT on ra?

Although my Jewel site will no longer be available, I will still have an angelfood trade page. It will be exactly the same page you see on my Jewel site now, but it'll be accesible through my Steve Poltz site on the tape trades page-the angelfood section will be linked at the bottom of the screen:) Thanks to everyone who has sent me their poems & art for use on my site & also for everyone who has emailed me with positive feedback!!! The new URL will be: http://www.stevepoltz.cwc.net For angelfood the URL will be: http://www.stevepoltz.cwc.net/angelfood.htm I won't be downloading Just Jewel until my new Steve site & the angelfood page are up & running with no probs!

I never heard the people talking about what made them happy and all that stuff, so you know what I always say, be a leader, not a follower, so I am gonna TRY to start that up with this one post telling you what I love about jewel and her music. When I started listening to her, it was b/c the "most popular girl" in the school (wo is still my bff) gave it to me for christmas, and Iearned all the words b/c she did, but as I grew, I learned to appreciate her music more and more, and I learned the words to every song, and would sing them constantly. I would write her letters tellin how much I loved the music and stuff, until I realized that her music meant everything to me, it made me happy I guess. So she was the reason I started writing and singing, and that is now my life, and I have that all thanks to her inspiration. SHe said she got in this to help people, well, she did, her music makes me so happy, and I don't care what she looks like and what she wears, because when you take everything else away, and you are just listening to her, remember, thast all that matters. Luv always, Krystyn ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 24 Oct 1999 20:51:51 EDT From: BlissNangels@aol.com Subject: * Re: Come on.... Well, this is going to be a response from a totally innocent girl. Everything matters...that is, to different people. We all are attracted to Jewel for different reasons. Everyone's opinion is valid....no matter how much anyone disagrees with it (including my own). I don't want to contribute to the disputes about whether Jewel is skinny, fat, engaged, pregnant....whatever. Some of you debate on whether or not there is an old Jewel and a new Jewel...some of you say there is no difference. I agree with both. Each of us (especially those who have gone through the 20-25 year old stage) change drastically. I think that each of us have an "old" us and a "new" us, and therefore, I believe there is an "old" Jewel and a "new" Jewel. She is beautiful just the same. For all the females out there, Jewel knows how sensual she is, and she uses it to bring us deeply into her music. I know I dress how I feel each and every day. Some days I'm preppy, some days I'm a hippy. I lived in a 69 VW bus. I've lived in Venezuela. I've been through heartache. I've known ultimate happiness. I am different. I change. You change. We all change. There is an "old" us and "new" us each and every day. Just like Jewel. We can all be mean some days. Jewel was extremely mean at one of the concert I went to. It was raining, and everyone was leaving and she yelled at the crowd, saying that they were mean and disrespectful to her and her music...just because some people didn't want to get wet. This just makes me respect her more, because she is real. She gets mad, hurt, even bitchy...just like the rest of us. She is HUMAN. So are each of us. And each human is curious about different things, so let them ask, let them wonder, let them accuse. We are all here for a greater good, but should not be shunned for our curiosity. Thank you for listening. Sorry if I offended anyone. -Steph In a message dated 10/22/1999 11:18:54 PM, MrchngAngl@aol.com writes: << ok I haven't written in a while cause I've been really busy, but I finally had enough time to go through my 500 or so emails. And I was extremely disappointed in what I spent time looking at. More conversations about jewel, the unknown facts, and presumptions. Once again I will say this...does it matter???? Really, honestly?? I mean I'm sure we all want to know all we can but come on. Why should I care what religion she is?? I don't. That's not why I like jewel. And so what if she's changed?? Isn't that her right?? Her life, not ours. She can do what she wants. It's an added bonus that she shares part of what she is with us. It's not our place to approve or disapprove. And still everyday there are more and more people joining. Each one of us has our own opinions.

That is exactly what is wrong with our country's women. Competition....why do we all feel the need to be in competition with eachother? This is the stem of all the Jewel remark that deal with her looks. This is where we all should ask ourselves the question "if Jewel weighed 350 pounds, would any of us like her"? To those who think "no way".... maybe you should rethink being on this list. Not to offend, as usual, but it would cut down the negative posts....just a thought. -Steph In a message dated 10/24/1999 3:14:38 PM, Sabato229@aol.com writes: >You know the funny thing about this Jay Leno show is that >Calista Flockhart was on and sitting next to Jewel. > >Now ask yourself this who looked better? >My answer is Jewel and she made Calista seem uncomfortable >I believe I saw her take a peek at Jewel's "nice shirt" > >Ironic -- huh? > >Take Care, >Angela ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 24 Oct 1999 22:02:46 -0500 (CDT) From: Tien Dang Subject: * Winner of Jewel poster Contest Heya Sorry it has taken so long to reply who was the winner.

I LOVE JEWEL!!!!! I love her belly. I love her crooked-tooth smile. I love her short unmanicured nails and her long slender callused fingers. I love her little imperfections.
