Invariably, though, she's speaking truth. Forgive me, as this may well have been raised earlier in the year, and if so, I missed it, but, when celeb/pop culturist Neil Strauss' book, "Everyone Loves You When You're Dead..." was published, some, such as The Guardian's reviewer, added a bit of context eg. "Strauss gives aloof women - Joni Mitchell, say - very short shrift, as might be expected of a writer instinctively drawn to the lives of rock pigs, PUAs (pick-up-artists) and porn stars (Strauss also ghostwrote Jenna Jameson's How to Make Love Like a Porn Star)." Strauss is fortunate, indeed, to get any time whatsoever with a genuine musical artist. No doubt his pick-up lines and strategies fall flat on intelligent subjects. ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2011 #471 ***************************** ------- To post messages to the list, send to joni@smoe.org.
