There is NOwhere on earth I would rather be than with good friends around your piano and enjoying a weekend of music. If I hit the lotto and the kids decede to go to summer camp somewhere, I may have to phone my participation in. Please put me over the column with Kakki to keep her compnay for know and see if some MORE good fotune comes my way as I have been so blessed lately. My best to all and actually I have heard there are other folks who have said they will be there, you guys should write to David and get on the list. David, I hope you can come over for Boston on Labor Day weekend. Atty May could use a goodd dose of Lahm magic. Hope you all are well. love Paz NP-Damn Everything But The Circus-The Story on 3/9/01 7:13 PM, Dflahm@aol.com at Dflahm@aol.com wrote: > Dear Friends--- > I have arranged for JUDY'S CHELSEA, the cabaret restaurant where my wife, > Judy and I are partners, to be the site for a JoniFest on Saturday afternoon > and evening and Sunday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend (May 26th and 27th). > > YES SO FAR NO SO FAR MAYBE SO FAR > Emily Gray Marcel > Michael Paz > Steve & Leslie Mixon Kakki > Julius > Victor Johnson > Ashara > MG > Heather (Luvart) > > OK, that's it for now, DAVID > LAHM ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 10 Mar 2001 21:53:01 -0800 From: Michael Paz Subject: Re: sharing the full moon [NJC] you couldn't POSSIBLY mean ME....nah it couldn't be.

This is the kinda stuff that makes me uncomfortable to discuss in open forum whether it's true or not. I am so glad that you are on the YES list for Boston. Maybe this year we can play again. I would like to revive that FTR tribute set. If so I would love to do CBSSF as an ensemble with Claudia taking lead vox, YTMOIAR as an emsemble, I can play the guitar, and I would like you to accompany me on lead vox on Blonde in the Bleachers and/or See You Sometime if there are no other takers.

She brought to my attention that Scrabble was being discussed on this list. Now, to say I'm a Scrabble enthusiast would be an understatement. Scrabble is more than just a hobby for me. It is a way of life. There are in fact several ways to play on the internet, but there is also an entire club and tournament Scrabble subculture. I play online and at clubs and tournaments, where all my competitors are adults. I am ranked among the top 100 players in North America according to the National Scrabble Association's ratings list, and I regularly average over 400 per game. I study the special Scrabble dictionary and word lists derived from it to increase my playing vocabulary. I have even played in the last two National Scrabble Championships. Where to start? Since some of you expressed interest in computer/internet play, I'll describe how that can be done. The easiest way is on www.games.com. Simply register an account (it only takes a couple of minutes), then click on the Scrabble link on the main page. Click on your home area (either North America or outside of North America), then click on one of the Scrabble rooms (Consonant Creek, Vowel Valley, etc.) to go in and find a game. Hopefully someone in there will help you with the interface and such. Another way is through Networdz, a program you can download to play people over the internet or to practice against the built-in computer program. Extensive information on this can be found at Bob Weiss's site, http://members.home.net/bobsweiss/bob/scrabble. You will also need a chat program called mIRC to play this way. If you have Hasbro's Scrabble CD-ROM program, you can play on MSN Internet Gaming Zone (www.zone.com). However, I'm not sure how long this will be available since recently the Scrabble part of the site lost Hasbro's support. Even so, the CD-ROM program is by far the strongest program to practice against by oneself. Julie Bean's site has info on this and many other Scrabble-related topics at http://personal.bellsouth.net/mco/b/a/bachtal/index.htm. Be sure to check out the links section. It is an excellent resource for all things Scrabble. For the best competition possible, I recommend playing on a Telnet server called MarlDOoM (DOoM stands for distributed object-oriented MUD; MUD stands for multi-user domain. I have no idea what any of this means.) This is where I spend most of my waking hours :-) You can play games against others or ACBot, the online computer player, and even watch games. Highly addictive if you ask me. Information on this can be found at John Chew's site at www.math.toronto.edu/~jjchew/doom/faq.html and Mark Watkins' site at www.math.uga.edu/~mwatkins/BobGrid.html. For general Scrabble info, Steven Alexander's Scrabble FAQ at www.teleport.com/~stevena/scrabble/faq.html is indispensable. It has countless links and stuff about tournament Scrabble, ratings, dictionaries, etc. Those who want to take the plunge can go to the National Scrabble Association's site at www.scrabble-assoc.com. Here you can find out about club and tournament activity in your area, and join the NSA if you wish. I hope this was helpful to the Scrabble lovers on this list. Anyone with questions can e-mail me at DavidW64@aol.com.

After all her years in the Boston area, "it could happen." On Jonatha's Live album, JB explains her mother's maiden name is Stone, so she is blood from a Stone, as she introduces the song of that same title. I have no idea if she actually grew up in Boston and has family in the area or just went to college and started her career there. Just being cute really - trying to come up with some far fetched guesses at Paz's teaser. ;-) I do hope you keep the camera rolling though, Paz. ;-) Penny Yahoo!
