And fess up, humble Kakki, YOU were the writer of that fabulous, fabulous presentation piece, weren't you? ;-) Smiles to all Penny ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 22:15:40 -0700 From: "Kakki" Subject: Re: ASCAP piece and photo Penny wrote (and Gina commented) > Going to the ASCAP page last night, the first thing that I thought of > too, was how much Joni's picture on the looked like Kilauren.....uncanny > resemblance! It is so uncanny how much she looks like Kilauren. I believe this photo is from part of a series shot by her make-up artist Paul Starr. The other photos are/were on Wally's page and they also, while glamourous, don't look like Joni. I'm telling you - it's all done with smoke and mirrors (and botox and collagen injections!) That's O.K. - everyone is entitled to a change in look at times but happiness is the best...you know ;-) >And fess up, humble Kakki, YOU were the writer of that > fabulous, fabulous presentation piece, weren't you? Shhhhh.....I also had a lot of help from Steve Dulson while we were at Joni's last Thursday - we were up for two days trying to get it just right. (itsajoke;-) Thank you, Penny. ;-D Kakki ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 23:24:55 -0700 From: Susan Chaloner Subject: Re: Joni as classical/operatic music (was Two grey rooms) Kakki wrote: > And how about Lead Balloon for rock opera? ;-D YES!!!

Deb! for sharing this heartening link: <> It is SO GREAT to see Joni finally receive the recognition she rightly deserves - especially for masterpieces like Paprika Plains! Y'all probably know by now that I think Joni is the most gifted artist/musician of the 20th Century. Definately check out this site & send it to all your friends! It gives me hope for the future.

It's a pain in the butt actually, because when it dries, your car and all the windows in your house are covered in a fine golden-brown dust. Romantic though. Do you get the same thing in California from Nevada/Colorado? Last night was just such a night, (only a light fall of sand this time though), but whenever it happens I find myself singing 'Carey' when I get up in the morning and see the dust on the windows. (you can almost smell it or feel it in the atmosphere before you see it). This morning I finished washing and shaving just as I finished the song, looked in the bathroom mirror and said to myself "You're a mean old daddy but I LIKE you!"
