The left, meanwhile was splintered into smaller groups with specific agenda (gay rights, abortion rights, environmental, etc) that could be squashed by the larger united numbers on the right. They've lost that edge now, and I think that's what scares them the most. A good example would be the TV special on Reagan that Republicans forced off of mainstream TV. When the Democrats tried to do the same thing with the recent 9-11 (It was Clinton's fault) special, the same folks who fought to get the Reagan broadcast off the air cried foul and free speech and all that. Quite the load of hypocritical BS.

If I came off as implying that we should put all of our sick family members to sleep, mea culpa. And I'm sure that we also agree on the importance of each individual clearly stating how he or she wants to be treated in that kind of situation. In the case of my wife's grandfather, he had a living will that specified no feeding tubes or life support. However, his wife had the legal power to revoke that and to have the medical staff do whatever they could to keep his body functioning. To her credit, she was able to do the right thing and let him go. And as you say, the human body is incredibly resilient - as of last Wednesday he was unable to swallow and had no nourishment whatsoever and it took nearly a week for him to go.

(Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Mark Isham...) And she adjusted BYT for inflation, and updated the party atmosphere in "You're So Square..." There's a difference between a tweak that makes a song fresh and one that twists it uncomfortably. Like Borat singing the National Anthem at the rodeo...he overly tweaked it, I would say.

Even though I don't know either of them (naturally) I can imagine how Joni must feel. She seems to have been close to her mother as well as having had issues with her so the relationship appears to have been intense for a very long time. Having myself have lost both my parents, a sister and a lover, I have a fairly good idea of what Joni and her family are going through right now, and I only wish she could feel all the warm thoughts of condolence offered here on this list (and to which I hereby add my own). Maybe it would help her knowing so many people feel they share in her loss. I've listened to the radio interview with Myrtle and Bill and was taken by the striking similarity of Myrtle's and Joni's voices. So in a sense Myrtle lives on. RIP, Myrtle.

Hey guys. I don't mean to weigh anyone down with my problems but I am so glad that Jonifest is next week. Thank God! This week (and part of last for the first thing) friends ditched me, my car broke down, I got yelled at by my Dad about broadcasting not being a real job and that I needed to get my 4 year degree, and now today I just got fired from my job. And of course Joni's Mom died, and although I don't know her or Joni, it still is awfully sad. I wish all of them well. So let me tell you, Jonifest is the only thing keeping me going man. That....and music in general of course....and some plans I have for this weekend. But it's all so silly on why I got fired but I shall not bore you with the details. More than anything, I am not angry, but I am perturbed by this inconvenience as I was making good money that I was saving (but I had only worked there since December). It was merely a temporary stay as I am looking for a career in broadcasting. - -Monika, Jonifest can't come any sooner ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Broadcasting not a real job? WTF? Do you need to give your Dad a list of Broadcasters who have made a very, very good living at it? Anyway, I'm sorry to hear about your crappy week, Monika - we all have them from time to time and I suppose we need them to appreciate when things are good. You know you have lots of friends here who are happy to listen and pick you up. Your week sounds like my wife's...her Grandfather died Monday, we were planning on going to KY for the funeral tomorrow but then her brother went into a coma on Tuesday and she got a stomach virus that made her violently ill so we have to stay put for the time being - I'm actually glad we're not going to Kentucky though - 16 hours of driving on a 3-day weekend is too much for me. On the upside, I got my advance promo of the Joni Tribute CD yesterday and have been enjoying it a bunch. Cassandra's "For The Roses" in particular is just exquisite.

There may be a wink in your statement, but voting based on sharing meals or beers is why this country is in such a mess now.

I know! That's great.

I'm content to leave it at that, for the time being anyway. Debra Shea ____________________________________________________________________________________ The fish are biting.

In one of the recent articles it is stated that Joni thinks or some people generally think that Joni doesn't get enough due credit due to the fact that she is a woman in a man's world (and really more in particular a female recording artist in a male dominated music world). I mean most of the people who get a good amount of credit are in fact male artists/bands. Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, Dylan, Bowie, etc etc. Sure there are a few standout females who have stood out--Janis Joplin, Stevie Nicks, etc etc. So do you think this is part of the problem? Are we all just living in a man's world, especially as far as music is concerned? I mean, do you think the fact that Joni is a female automatically turns some guys away (I stress some as there are many males on this list :) ) and doesn't give her as much credit as if she were a male recording artist? Just pondering aloud here....and wondering everyone's opinion. And of course Joni does get some credit but I don't think it's enough man. Atleast not yet. - -Monika ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.

I know recently, I've mentioned Joni Mitchell to some friends and they say, "You mean she's still around?" as if she disappeared a long time ago. I think women artists are more prominent these days though rock n roll has certainly been male- dominated for a long time and magazines like Rolling Stone don't really do much to change that. I think it is unfortunate. Personally, I like music because it is good whether or not the artist is male, female, black, white, purple, or blue. If only the whole world were that way.

Listen, I went over to texas last month and thought to raid the Apple store for goodies. I found that the dollar weakness didn't effect much in the way of savings. Even in non-apple stores I found the prices not noticeably cheaper. Are you shopping NYC before or after 'fest? I'm flying into Boston and returning from NYC on the wednesday. Shopping is likely to figure somewhere in the spaces before and after 'fest. LOL.

If I remember correctly, it's not so much an article but a simple statement on a page with a lot of other year-end, best of/worst of things. I remember seeing it at one point and being rather under-whelmed. I think it's been blown out of proportions over the years.
