I know they do great things there. Either way, how special the work and dedication of you and your collegues - thanks for your efforts! Nice to have another soulful and caring member - now if only I could do something worthwhile! LOL! I was also into Zepplin and Pink Floyd - but am a Blue junkie all the way! Damn and I am still burning brain cells at 46. Take care and don't be a stranger. Peace, Susan Bruce Aronow wrote: Hi Susan, Thanks for that welcome! To be much franker than I would be with anyone else.. I was pretty much plugged into LedZep and PinkFloyd when Blue (high school) and Ladies of the Canyon (college) seemed to offer a better path to the women that most appealed to me. If only I had followed that path along the canyon a little closer I could have saved several years and brain cells.. But I survived, and now I am a researcher at a jewel of a Children9s Hospital where I use genomics to better understand diseases like asthma, diabetes, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer. It is a total blast, better than disneyland when I was little, but a big part of the wind for my sails has got to come from artists and poets like Joni. Something I wish I could teach my kids a little more of is the joy and meaning that comes from gathering inspiration from great primary sources. Thus Joni. Yahoo!

I'm not sure if this is the one you mean, but it happened in "In And Out", with Kevin Kline. Matt Dillon left his model girlfriend at a cheap, kind of seedy small-town motel, and the phone was a old dial model. She was trying to push the number holes, and got very frustrated!

There's a thrift shop on the west side of 3rd Ave, between 22nd and 23rd Streets with a WHOLE LOT of used records in the back, 90% of which are marked at $2-$4 and most in very good condition. The best part is that they've got 50% off all records and books (don't know how long that sale is on but probably for a while) and at least half of what's there (records, not the books) is rock from the '70's to '80's. I bought a bunch of good stuff for $1-$2 each, today. If anyone is interested and going to be in NYC in the near future, you might want to check it out.

The magnum opus is a house laid out in the fashion of "Stone Hinge" the wheel has a radius of 92 and 114 feet 10 degree segments are filled with different rooms, the result is each room looks out on different views on a 400 acre ranch in Washington State on the Columbia River not far from the Maryhill Museum. O I transformed myself thru Harry Potter's Order of the Phoenix or as I call it "Out of Toilet Paper." I did a lot of cross pollinating of my yellow climbing roses early in the summer. It will be next summer before I see any results in achieving a Joni Mitchell Rose, like the ones painted in BSN opposite of Comes Love. Went to a "Street of Dreams" a contractors collection of 1-2 million dollar houses one had the latest in total house programmable Internet sound system and was playing "Cherokee Louse" and "Nothing Can be Done" while I was checking out the Master Bath Room. Best for last Here in Portland, Oregun there is a nice shopping strip called NW 23rd surrounded by nice old houses, Victorian's Craftsman's Classical Colonial's but the Shop Owners say they need more parking so there plan is to bulldoze a dozen houses and put up multi story parking garages.
