I was bothered by the cereal-bowl-dumping too, though, which isn't classy at all, but at least it doesn't hurt. Or shouldn't. Now I'm thinking of Joni singing, "'Kiss my ass', I said, and I threw my drink..." Maybe she has the habit of throwing things at people. I hate people who throw stuff at people, or who break things when they're angry. I've been tempted to do that too, but I don't. It'd make me feel like an idiot. And I wouldn't want to have to clean it up after, either. - ----- Original Message ----- > From: Anne Sandstrom > To: Catherine McKay ; Marian Russell ; "joni@smoe.org" > Cc: > Sent: Monday, September 16, 2013 10:09:18 AM > Subject: RE: Gossip from Graham Nash > > Yeah.

I would suggest walking away until a calmer conversation can be had. Easier said then done when passions flare but it is a more tempered response.

Does anyone have a digital copy of the liner notes for the Starbucks "Joni Mitchell: Selected Songs" release? This is the CD on which songs were selected for inclusion by friends and fellow musicians who have been influenced by her. Thanks in advance!

Joni was well rid of him! Good decision, Joan! Marian Shocked, eh? I'm curious what would you suggest should have been a more tempered response from Graham to Joni acting like a spoiled brat and dumping a bowl of cereal on his head? Offer to go with her to couples counseling, perhaps? Remember what year that was.

And Graham was raised in Britain, where women were not yet as liberated as Joni was. But walking away would have been seen by her, I suspect, as her get away with it and encouraged even more bratty behavior. I am not saying the spanking was the best response, but considering the options at the time, I certainly wasn't shocked and am surprised anyone was.
