Can you court and spark an omen? I thought to myself what could that mean Am I going crazy or is this just a dream Now, wait a minute I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere so it's all in my head and then.. I heard her say one more time: [sung:] Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl LOL...that's another one. I always thought it was "dig that girl". Another mondegreen-type error: When my son was about six times round the seasons, we were looking to buy our first home. After hearing us lament the prices we could not afford, he said: "Why don't we just buy a condom?" Another one of his was: I love rock and roll Put another diamond in the jew box, baby! And quelle coincidence, I saw in that same article the word "pescatarian". I had never seen it before, and then Cindy used it the very next day. Shine on the fishermen! Life is for learning.

I apologize in advance for the crap look of this e-mail.

If I try to "reply" that way, I can't get rid of the bar. If I change it to plain text, it takes out the bar, but then I have no way to indicate who is speaking when, so I'm going to put the names of the "speakers" in front of what they have to say. Some of you may understand what the heck I'm talking about, but I'm not sure if I do.

Presbyopia - the loss of the ability of the eye to focus once we reach middle-age. Presbyopia comes from the Greek word for "old person." (Hi, Smurf!) I wondered what the Presbyterian Church has to do with being old, so I looked it up and apparently it has something to do with "elders." When I was a kid, I had a friend who used to mix a couple of different-flavour soft drinks together (like root beer and orange crush.) She would call this a presbyterian. I have no idea where that came from - however, her Mum was from Minnesota, just like Presbyte Falls. Ha ha.

A few years ago, Leslie was in Seattle on business. We met for dinner and had a great time. There was a fire alarm in the restaurant where we ate and we left without paying, feeling like a couple of guilty kids and singing 'Night in the City' as we walked back to her hotel. Later, she and Steve were kind enough to give me a place to stay when I went down to see Joni on the 'Both Sides Now' tour at the Concorde Pavillion. They were both more than good to me. We used to communicate but have lost touch. I miss her. She is a special and talented lady.

Yael Harlap also has a birthday today and happy Yael! I am a not a very good, or especially liked, person but one of my few decent qualities is remembering Leslie Mixon on the birthday that she and I share. Leslie was so special to us all - at least I hope she feels the karma of the love that accompanies our honoring here. So before Jul 9 is past: celebrate the good, Leslie, Yael, Tom Hanks - curse the not so good, O J Simpson, me - but do remember because not all of will make the circuit always so remember now... thanks for any kind thoughts my way and far far far greater thanks for people taking my original measley post to celebrate the wonderful Leslie Mixon!

Any suggestions?

But the song first appeared on LOTC, which was released in 1970. And I used that year as a base. Ah, 1966 or 1970 is debatable. It can vary on one's point of view. One thing that is not debatable (one thing that is sure) is that there won't be The Circle Game Pt.2. Joni won't write it. But perhaps Patti will.....

It is often said that Joni is or was a confessional songwriter, which in essence has no sort of connotation whatsoever. It can't be deemed positive or negative. It is a writing style in which one derives material based on personal experience. Seems simple enough, right? Well, back in the day (70's or so) Joni basically nodded in agreement that she was a confessional songwriter, particularly during Blue. I've read interviews where she's down with that title. How come more recently, say nowadays, she shuns the title? In one of her most recent interviews she said she was never a confessional songwriter--that confessional songwriting is like saying, "ooh I need to confess this, forgive me." That isn't word for word what she said but it is along the same lines. Anyway, my question to you is, why does Joni reject that idea now? - -Mon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2008 02:16:01 -0400 From: David Eoll Subject: Re: kecap manis, tempe? -njc. plus vegetarian Rian Afriadi wrote: > I guess Vietnamese uses odd punctuation because their language is tonal. > So, the punctuation is used to differ the tones. I've always been strangely fascinated by the sound of Vietnamese. I always thought it sounded kind of 'sing-songy'. Now I know why. Its a beautiful language, and they're a beatiful people. Its a tragedy what happened over there 40 years ago. I'm so glad we don't fight wars based on lies anymore. Oh, wait... nevermind.
