I can't recall her ever *not* having a pick. She pays attention to her nails and tries to keep them strong. She did tell a story once about gluing on artificial nails right before a gig. Apparently she started playing a little too vigorously and one of the fake nails popped off, right into the lap of an audience member. She said the guy was really cool about it, kind of pretended it didn't happen, and the show went on.

As a lawyer...I made up a pretend lawsuit suing someone for not being nice....and stated in the Complaint: While attending mass with friends in Saint Mary Basilica in Minneapolis, (defendant) declined to receive the sacrament from the common cup, stating, "I am not going to drink from that! A lot of people have slurped on that and I do not know where they have been." As a result, the Basilica now distributes the sacrament in Dixie Cups. Oh well....too much time on my hands...... Keep those enjoyable posts coming.

That was one of the great 60s celebrity romances. She starred with Michael Caine in "Alfie", and have you noticed how all of the women Paul has partnered since have looked like her? Freckles, minimal make-up, natural hair, liittle interest in designer clothes etc. Linda was very much in the same mould. Incidentally, Jane Asher is now married to the brilliant, but cuttingly cynical cartoonist, Gerald Scarfe, who designed Pink Floyd's "The Wall" and in his declining years, Walt Disney's "Hercules". Celebrities do tend to cling together, don't they?. Ask Joni about it. And yes, "And I Love Her" was a beautiful song. My quirky, personal favourite Beatles' song is "Fixing A Hole" just ahead of "Norwegian Wood", isn't it good? I've got to stop my mind from wandering where it will go........which is - there was this song that I adored in the 80s when my first daughter, Hannah, was born and had cholic. I used to hold her in my arms, in her nappy, with her chubby liittle arms clinging to me, and spin round and round and round to it for hours, until her crying turned to smiling and then sleep. It was "Spinnin' and Spinnin'" by Syreeta, who married Stevie Wonder, and performed with Billy Preston who, of course, recorded with the Beatles! God, those celebrities really DO stick together.

I used to go often with my friends, even though I'm not Catholic, so we could leave directly from church to go have fun (later we discovered the joy of sneaking in right at the end of mass, grabbing a program, and casually leaving it on the dining room table so the parents would assume we'd been to church). Anyways, we were at church one summer Saturday, and as the church wasn't air condidioned, the stained glass windows were all open. There were the kind of windows that tilted in to open, right at mid-shin level on the images of the saints. A little kid a couple of rows ahead of us glanced up, and seeing only some stained glass feet, loudly exclaimed "Jesus' feet!" The more his parents tried to quiet him, the louder he repeated it, until finally most of the church was giggling. > "God, this is boring!" Apparently most of the congregation had a very hard > time keeping a straight face for the rest of the formalities, and my > friend's brother and sister-in-law were rather embarassed! young children can be brilliant before they are taught to be untruthful and not themselves.

Gotta see that one again. Recently I saw this lovely clip on some TV music show, can't remember which one though. My 11 year old Nsync-crazed daughter was sitting there, and I told her that those guys were the "boy band" of my childhood. Her comment was "but they're all dead and gone now right?" After I stopped laughing, I explained that only one of them is dead, and that wasn't natural causes. I pointed out John in the video, and she immediately proclaimed him "the cute one". Oh my god, deja vu all over again. Strangely comforting to see that some things never change.

My last amazon purchase was the third copy of "Blue" that I've bought - first the vinyl LP, then the cassette and now the CD. I guess there must be one or two fanatical JMDLRs out there who have got every vinyl, tape and CD version of every album Joni has ever recorded and, hell, why not?. I remember, when, as teenagers in the late 60s we used to spend every school lunch break in the local record store, just dreaming about buying those albums, like "Song to a Seagull", "Clouds" and "Crosby, Stills and Nash". Each purchase was a major decision and a big investment. You NEVER bought one that one of your friends had already, because you could always go round to his house and listen to it and vice versa, which is why I never bought so many great albums, like "Sergeant Pepper's". Now, it's all so easy and so cheap. ONE-CLICK.

It's been a while, but I'm here in Chicago and sort of settling in. (I despair of ever being "settled" but that's another session and the doctor is out.) Jody and Diane were great help moving in two weeks ago. Diane even tricked a friend of hers into coming along. What troupers. They hauled my boxes and boxes of books into the new place with nary a complaint. What an unusual way for Joni to have graced my life! On their way out, they suggested a potluck/housewarming sort of thing. I haven't forgotten about it. I'm still wading in boxes (all of them open and most of them only half unpacked -- finishing what I start is something of an issue but that's yet another session) but thinking at sort of just past the middle of August I should be able to open my doors and invite people over. I'll put the word out so all Chicago JMDLers can participate. (Seems like there were a few around, yes?) And before I left Austin, I'd exchanged e-mails with someone about going to the Jonatha Brooke concert later this month. Merk? was that the screen name? I'm so bad. Anyway, I saw her in Austin in June and would love to have folks to see her with in Chicago. (I still need to get tix -- I hope they're still available.)
