"My Message to Carter Navarro (a.k.a. The Pirate King)" by J.A.K.E. I hate to see you completely leave the list (I know you aren't, but I have to make the following speech). I think your comments and your angle on everyday things are invaluable to this list. It's writings like yours that I look forward to and actually make time for. It's true this list has become a monster compared to what it was a year ago, but it's easy to skim through and delete those messages that don't interest me, but yours always do. There you go, I said what I wanted to say, I hope others agree.

Thats ok, I am sure I am probably the only person who likes them. I was just teasing. I came out and admitted that I didnt hate Kathie Lee Gifford too, so you can sorta expect me to like the strange ones. I am trying so hard to think of another Air Supply song. I was a Sr. in high school when they were THE group to slow dance too. Of course I also went to church school, so I didnt get to experience any of that. I listened to them underneath my pillow at night.

I finally bought some of the albums people have been recommending - Patti Rothberg, Sara MacLachlan, Eleanor McEvoy, Duncan Sheik. I like them all. I saw a most curious CD by a band called the Refreshments called Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy - or something like that - I'm not sure about the word Big, but all the others are correct. I almost bought it for Robb, but....I didn't! Tower Records had Patty Griffin in one of the listening stations - Yay! And their free mag, Impulse had a long article and cover photo on Ani DiFranco (whom I have yet to hear, but I will soon!) Well, that's all the news that's fit to print. I was sure I'd find a copy of StL at one of the used record stores but NOPE.

I just wanted to writer and tell you all of the converts I'm making up here in Syracuse! (Actually, first, a public apology to Jay Notte- I lost your email address- I totally forgot about Thurs, I feel awful!My brain does not work right- email me so we can make more plans, ok?) ok- I had a seminar to go to- it's about 15 people who get together every thurs. night & we're all freshmen except for the teacher, and we talk about being at Syracuse & stuff that's going on &we go to plays, it's really great!! But then, someone had this brilliant idea for everyone to chose one song and play it for everyone, and explain e=why we chose that song. WEll, of course, guess who I brought- Jewel, you silly! And I'm usually kinda quiet in that class, but I was so exited about sharing Jewel , I was positively giddy!! I played "Morning Song" 'cause I was in a cute mood that day, and I must have talked for 15 min straight about Jewel, the EDA's and how wonderful everything & all of you are!! well, I 3 people have come to me and listened to it & want to go out & buy POY!!!!!! YAY!! My teacher was even impressed! I had this one kid come up to me afterwards and tell me that he thought it was really cool how much I like Jewel- I didn't notice, but he said that when her song was on, I was actually shaking!! ahhhhhhh- life is great, Jewel is great, you guys are great, thought I needed to share........................-Lara "A smile recurs the wounding of a frown" -Shakespeare ------------------------------ From: Dan Stark Date: Tue, 24 Sep 1996 23:11:41 -0400 Subject: NJC: Receipt of Purchase.
