I have a 3 terabyte external hard drive that I finally got around to putting into service, itbs a WD My Book Essential. Before Christmas I transferred my i-Tunes over to it, all of my music, CDs, digital purchases and my very organized Joni covers from Bob the maestro covers king. Each offering in itbs own folder with the original notes that came along with the release. I was getting ready to begin putting on the rest of my CD collection and, using my digital turntable, make all of my vinyl into MP3s. It was my 2012/2013 bwinter project.b I cannot believe what happened. I got an error message when I tried to update my i-Tunes to the latest version. The error is catastrophic! Not only can I not update i-Tunes because it runs into an error but I can also not remove i-Tunes because it no longer shows up in my add/remove programs list so that I could begin with a fresh download and if I try to install a new download it also fails. The drive itself now also has an error and I can no longer access (or even see) ANY of my music, including all of the little Joni treats Ibve downloaded from everyone over the years and my Joni covers folder is empty! I have been on an emotional roller coaster since my husbandbs diagnosis of plasma cell cancer in December but this was the final straw as I sat weeping over the loss of my music I was overcome with all that is to come with Bradbs chemotherapy, radiation and feeling helpless trying to help him in the middle of the night when he wakes in pain. I am not usually one to whine about my lot in life but I knew that the JMDLers might understand about the loss of my music and how that triggered my tears. I havenbt the energy to try to replace anything right now, I am VERY thankful I hadnbt moved all of my photos yet. Isnbt it amazing how the soundtrack of our lives is so very important. Warmly, Cassy PS: Since this involved all of my Joni files I left it with Joni content. My apologies to those who are really sticklers about that NJC tag. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 09:37:02 -0800 (PST) From: Em Subject: Re: (NJC) Phones and such I just try to make sure there are no boogers.

And that the room you're in, or at least the part of it the other party can see, is neat. Or maybe that's not a problem. Maybe it's an incentive to get dressed and clean up a bit. It's all in how you look at it. Maybe fake backgrounds (like the ones they use, or used to use, in school photos for my kids - the fake library, the galaxy, etc) and masks are the way to go. >> Nah.. What they see is what they get. ;-) Lori ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 09:07:07 -0800 From: "Mark" Subject: Re: NJC New Bowie I clicked on David's link and the video was blocked 'due to copyright issues in your country' or some such legal jabber. I assume this is the same video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWtsV50_-p4&feature=share Mark in Seattle - -----Original Message----- From: David Marine Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2013 2:02 AM To: joni@smoe.org Subject: NJC New Bowie Hey List, Don't know if this has been posted already. It's Bowie's work in ten years, at age 66. I think the album release is next week. Has anyone heard an advance/promo?

Hear this intimate acoustic performance, along with a candid yet playful interview. http://www.kcrw.com/music/programs/mb/mb941025joni_mitchell lots o joni, shari ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 10:05:18 -0500 (EST) From: Ken Subject: Joni Reference in Non Sequitur Don't know how many people get newspapers anymore (or how many people read the funnies) but in today's paper, there's a Joni reference in the Non Sequitur comic. A couple is walking through a cemetery and on one of the grave stones is the text, "Seeing Life From Both Sides Now." The woman says to the man, "I'm guessing a big Joni Mitchell fan."
