From: BarBearUh
i was at the sundance film festival a couple of weeks ago and saw a new movie
called 'a walk on the moon'. i don't know if it will ever make it to a
theatre near you - it's not a hollywood monster - but it might because dustin
hoffman is one of the six producers of this film, and it's a really nice
story. diane lane stars as a woman who is yearning to be free in 1969, and
feels tied down to her domestic life. she is staying with her family in the
catskills, while her husband communtes on the weekends from his dreary job in
queens. she ends up going to woodstock, and having an affair, and "cactus
tree" provides a strong theme during a love scene when she's busy being free.
i'm often annoyed by songs used in soundtracks because it is so overdone these
days, and usually totally unmotivated, but in this movie, the music of the
times really plays nicely, almost as an extra character or a narrator. the
"cactus tree" moment is a real sweet one - joni sings while the characters
frolic in a swimming hole and waterfall. check it out if you can.

I don't believe this, the next thing you know he is going to say he didn't
do it and then get Robert Tilton to offer the Purple Telly Tubby a job so he
will quietly forget that he rubbed his little triangle up against Jerry.

Subject: Tinky-Winky
This is probably old news by now, but here goes anyway:
The actor who played Tinky-Winky, that is, the guy who
had the balls to get in that stupid suit and carry around that
magic bag, was openly gay, and BBC canned him and hired
someone else. It's true. There was a low-key discrimination
suit against the BBC, but my understanding is that the poor
guy lost. European joniphiles please correct me if I'm wrong!
It wouldn't be the first time, but tonight I think I'm right.
It was only after this item hit the news that people started
saying that the actual teletubby was gay. If you think about it,
they all COULD be gay. After all...they're teletubbies!
I actually watched the show twice and, to my horror, the
second show was a repeat of the one I'd already seen!
Time for teletubby bye-bye!

ago, what does it all mean??

Ooo, do I ever feel a parody coming on - "And we call for the four great
temperments..." but I'm too wasted after last night at the Rolling Stones
concert. My first time for the Stones, and I suppose my last since they
claim this to be their last tour. The boys amazed me with their energy,
especially Mick, but they also seemed sort of over-choreographed. Through
random pick ticket sales we ended up in nosebleed seats and the sound system
at the Pond was criminally poor - like through a muffled cheap radio. Bryan
Adams opened. Luckily I was accompanied by two fun Irishmen and their
lively friend who was a dead-on ringer for Ms. Mitchell, so not all was lost
;-)
