Ad - I often think that my (more than nine) years on this list (with the support of dear friends I've met through here) has got me through my second (fourth? eleventh?) childhood and helped keep my remaining innocence alive. I love you all (even the guy from Sweden who fixated on Yngwie Malmstein then disappeared). I won't name names, but everyone here has the potential to change the world for the better, and many (if not all) of you have done so. Even Dennis, the "other Harris" (TM) who has the light at his back (so you can see his halo and surrounding light). Don't underestimate Dennis's good intentions. Meeting and getting to know Jewel quite well (I was her attorney on her lawsuit against Inga Vainshtein) was a miraculous serendipitous event, and being an EDA beforehand absolutely helped me win that case for her (with the help of web sites created by EDAs). I also personally got Jewel back together with Nancy Porter after years of separation, and I got to sing three-part harmony with Jewel and Lenedra in the back of a Limo ("Mister Bass Man," if you care to know; I did the bass line). Clearly professional career highlights. I've got a gazillion other stories I will share when I've got more time to re-connect with you all (like seeing Patty Griffin and Tara MacLean (thanks, Dan Stark) together in a bar in Vancouver, with Adrian as my host). Thank you all. I treasure the friends and connections I have made on this list, really. Miracles and wonder. I'm sticking around. I love to hear your stories. I'm sorry I've been mostly a lurker the last few years. It's time to resurrect the old stories for the newer EDAs. - -=-Larry-=- p.s. - I'm getting married, to a Canadian (Torontonian), no less, and a Jewel fan (because of me) (she also really likes Patty Griffin a lot - we saw her together in Toronto recently). Let's get her to see Jewel in Toronto July 27. Anyone have an extra ticket I can buy for her? - -=-L-=- pps: No mention of theWhite Buffalo Woman lately. I hear there was one born in the last few weeks. ppps: My "intended" really loves Allison Crowe's rendition of "Hallelujah." And due to attrition and old age, I might just be the oldest remaining EDA (chronologically ONLY). - -=-Kookybaka-=- (That's another story) ++++++++++++++ > [Original Message] > From: Allison Crowe Music Mgmt > To: > Date: 7/9/2005 11:34:27 PM > Subject: [EDA] EDA: speaking of anniversaries... > > I believe that Larry turns 19 (in Kookybaka years) this Monday, July 11! > > May your heart be in the Highlands, far from the line limit... > > cheers, Adrian (the ca-noe-averse-angel) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 10 Jul 2005 01:20:22 -0700 From: "Allison Crowe Music Mgmt" Subject: Re: [EDA]: speaking of anniversaries... Dear Larry and fellow EDAs, we are gathered here today... I was listening to a report on CBC Radio (Canada's equivalent to the BBC, or NPR etc.) - and the expert being interviewed postulated that, while something like one dog year equates to one human year, the opposite is true when it comes to kookybakas. Something like seven kookybaka years equate to one regular people year. Thus, it is possible to, truly, be forever young ( : May you be of legal age in whatever state you and your betrothed marry, Larry. And, I expect, when it comes to your marriage, you will be in a state! hehe Congratulations to you both!!! It is great to hear the news on this EDA channel. And, while this may be old news, dearly beloved Gerry (Lipnowski) was recently offering for sale, at cost, a ticket to Jewel's Toronto concert - was/is he not?!! And, that's wonderful to hear your betrothed digs Alley's "Hallelujah". Should you not have it on disc suitable for hi-fi-audio reproduction, please let me know, and we'll be happy to send you two a wedding gift of same. BTW, Allison's version of "Throw Your Arms Around Me" makes for a groovy wedding song! Ah, love and music... My favourite Gaelic saying be: "All things pass away, love and music last forever." Long live the radical anti-cynicism revolution!!! To the barricades!!!

Its not a Limit Line or a Breakdown white line. He called it a FOG LINE. As in "what's a FOG LINE, officer?" That oughtta teach Mike not to drive a huge SVU on little Cape Cod roads!

They are called SUV's Amy, which stands for Sport Utility Vehicle. I was not driving an SVU, that stands for Special Victims Unit (although some may argue that with Dennis, Amy and Kookybaka Larry in my Ford Explorer Sport I certainly was commanding a Special Victims Unit.) Also, one other thing, my SUV is not huge. It's actually one of the smallest ones you can find. Guess you ain't seen too many in your time. Blushing that someone thinks his SUV is huge, Mike ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 10 Jul 2005 12:03:32 -0700 From: "Larry Greenfield" Subject: RE: [EDA] SJC: re: Dennis The Menace "Fog Line"??? I KNOW what a "fog line" is. I'm ALWAYS in a fog, and I know where the line is. I'm in a fog right now, and I can see lines everywhere. No limit. I'm pretty sure it was a "limit line." Mike, some back-up?

I was listenting to some Ani Difranco the earlier and when I got to the song "Asking too Much" she has the line ''in fact if you ask forget it, you'll regret it'' and it makes me cringe every time I hear it. She is such a talented songwriter, but that line is just awful!!! Jewel has a couple of lines like that that make me cringe too, like when she repeats ''it'll be all right'' all over 0304, I think she's using it in some of her new songs that she's trying out on the road too. Does anyone else know a great songwriter with one or two lyrics that are just so bad and cliche that it drives you crazy every time you hear it? Yes, it's a stretch for a topic, but I'm just really not into working on my paper!!!

But that mistake was purely due to a typo (and from watching way to much Law & Order SVU); not senility, for once. And allso true, your SUV was not that huge (sorry to say, Mike) but I guess against those skinny little Cape Cod roads it must have just looked big. Kinda like the camera adding 10 pounds. ;-) Amy In a message dated 7/10/05 12:57:47 PM, DuckSoup@quackquack.net writes: > They are called SUV's Amy, which stands for Sport Utility Vehicle. > I was not driving an SVU, that stands for Special Victims Unit (although > some may > argue that with Dennis, Amy and Kookybaka Larry in my Ford Explorer Sport I > certainly > was commanding a Special Victims Unit.) > > Also, one other thing, my SUV is not huge.
