Though this proposal may be very surprise to you as we have not met in any way before. I got your contact address through your country Business Guide and feel you will serve as a reliable source to be used to achieve this aim, by trusting under your care the total sum of thirty million US dollars (US $30M). This money I want to invest into any business of your choice in your country was acquired through the construction Of the newly completed Smurfonia National Stadium which was used for the just concluded Blue Games -- Smurfonia 2003. During the time the contract was to be awarded to a foreign contractor, I used my position and office then as the Senate President to over invoice the sum of USD.30M from the main contract sum. The construction of the Stadium have been completed and commissioned, the contractor have been paid, then this over invoiced amount (USD.30M) is what I want to trust under your care for lucrative investment of your choice in your country. As a former Senate President, l find it very difficult to invest such amount of money in my country due to my position in the Government such amount of money may attract some suspicion which may lead to my arrest, that is why I need your urgent assistance, Please indicate your interest in the area of a lucrative business viability in your country. For working with me to actualize this transaction, I will give to you 30% of the total fund while 10% will be used to settle every monetary expenses on the course of this transaction and the remaining 60% will be for me. The proposal should be kept strictly confidential due to my person in the Government as the Former senate President of Smurfonia. Please indicate your interest by providing me with your private direct phone line/fax number. And I assure you that all will be well at the end of this transaction.

Well, this time I heard the intro chords to "Just Like This Train." It did not sound like it came from Joni's recording, but it was definitely Joni's guitar chords. Also, a few days ago I was watching a PBS show called History Detectives or something similar. They were discussing the Lakota Sioux, when all of a sudden I hear "hey-a-ho, hey-a-ho......" It sounded identical to the intro from Joni's "Lakota." I couldn't see anything on the credits, as they ran pretty fast. It may have been a/another Native American singing the melody, but it sure sounded like ol' Iron Eyes. Stuff like this really makes my day! :) Mia _________________________________________________________________ MSN Movies - Trailers, showtimes, DVD's, and the latest news from Hollywood! http://movies.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200509ave/direct/01/ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 25 Jun 2004 11:46:25 -0600 From: "Les Irvin" Subject: RE: typeface (NJC) > Does majordomo2 have any other 'advantages' that we might > want?

Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while. Where do you live, Em? I met Augie back in, like, 1982 at a tiny Tex-Mex restaurant in San Antonio, USA. His band was playing their tejano hearts out one hell-hot afternoon. I danced til the sweat dripped from the tip of my nose. That's when his then-new song "Hey Baby Que Paso?" was all the rage in the Alamo City, my home town. I had no idea he was known outside the San Antonio/Austin music scene. May I ask where you've been hearing him? I'll be damned if the years don't spin by. Where has the time gone...and can I get some back? Don't answer that...I know. - -Julius > I mean lets face it - organs have that about them.

I love Texas Tornadoes big time - Doug Sahm, Augie Myers, Flaco Jimenez and Freddy Fender. So there's Augie there. But I'm thinking he was the keyboards behind Sir Douglas Quintet too..also Sahm and co. Love that sound! Anyhoo looks like I also managed to spell the man's name wrong - it should be "Meyers". Glad that brought back some sweaty memories for ya! Speaking of sweaty concerts, I'm thinking of braving the heat for an outdoor Subdudes show tomorrow nite.

Tee ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Jun 2004 02:09:50 +0000 From: "Timothy Spong" Subject: Top 25 road songs Our local newspaper -- the one I work for -- in its weekly automotive section on Thursday reprinted an article from the Los Angeles Times by Dan Neil, under the title "America's song of the open road disappears in distance" (not necessarily the title when printed in L.A. Times). The point of departure for the article was L.A.T. pop-music critic Robert Hilburn's top 25 road songs, which was shown in a box in the article. Number 10 was (drum roll, flourish of trumpets): "Refuge of the Road," Joni Mitchell. It was sandwiched between No. 9, "White Line Fever," Merle Haggard, and No. 11, "In My Car," Beach Boys. At the top of the list was "Born to Run," Bruce Springsteen, and bringing up the rear was "Long White Cadillac," the Blasters. No. 3, "Me and Bobby McGee," is referenced in the list itself by the performer of the best-known recorded version, Janis Joplin, but in the text of the article by its composer-lyricist, Kris Kristofferson.

Flamed? From who, surely you weren't thinking about me? I've thrown out more Joni cover pans than anyone I think. I'm just tickled pink that y'all are talking about 'em, and of course #54 is right around the dang corner. I don't record them, I just collect them. But I do consider all of them my babies in a weird way and find something to like about all of them (for the most part).

How about Ray Manzarek and those Doors records? He had to play bass on his organ as well. Or how about Chris Montez and his Happy Organ - "Let's Dance"? Traffic anyone? Organs rock. Just not Jonas Nordwall's. For the other 790 of you that don't have Covers # 53, lemme know if you want to hear Jonas wail on BSN, happy to send it along.

It gives me hope that his butt will soon be out of Washington and settled for good in a nice cozy chair in dusty Texas, and that he and the Bushies will never be heard from again (that last part's a stretch, but while I'm thinking such pleasant thoughts, why not go there?). Fahrenheit 9/11 opened here on Wednesday and I saw it this afternoon with JMDLer Jerry and his patient-with-the-joni-stuff friend Frank, both such charming men it was thoroughly enjoyable spending time with them. After a talk-filled lunch (Joni people are very wordy, yes?), we went to the theater. Even in mid-afternoon it was sold-out (not a big surprise in this Democratic town but, still, it was good to see so many people enthused about this film). Yesterday when picking up the theater tickets, Michael Moore, the man himself, was outside the theater being interviewed so I joined the crowd around him. As often happens in NYC, I say, hey, that was a nice surprise. As far as the movie goes, I'll hold off on a review until more people have seen it. For now, my only comment is: GO SEE IT!!!
