She's a civilian contractor. For a couple of frantic hours I couldn't get a hold of her. (As it turns out, she was in the Connecticut office yesterday.) After the Marathon bombing (VERY close friends had just stepped inside Marathon Sports - the first bomb went off just outside) and now this (don't know yet if my sister or brother know any of the injured or dead) I'm just shell shocked. Literally. Much stricter gun laws are the first step.As a culture, we have to stop embracing violence.Want to see what I mean? Turn off the TV (oh no, not that!) for 2 weeks. Then turn it back on. You'll be stunned. I was watching something the other night. An ad came on in which things were being blown up. What were they selling? Candy.We need to address the mental health issues in a meaningful and substantial (read - financial) way.The U.S. has to stop its hypocrasy. During Obama's speech about Syria, I was taken aback by his condemnation of Syria's use of chemical weapons when this government has used chemical weapons itself - not to mention the stockpile of nuclear weapons that we and the other nuclear weapons states refuse to give up. (And don't even get me started on the ridiculousness of the 'we're American and therefore special' statement!) We are killing ourselves. Literally. What can you do today? (other than contacting elected officials?) Simple. Be kind. Really. lots of love,Anne ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2013 12:56:52 -0400 From: Bob.Muller@Fluor.com Subject: Re: New Library item: Joni Mitchell LOVED this article, then again I'm a sucker for the early pre-stardom stuff.

Many Aussies (including myself) are in utter disbelief that these massacres are allowed to happen - time and time again - without the government able to implement tougher gun laws. No offence to the United States of America, but the situation regarding gun ownership over there is seriously insane. I'm proud to live in a country which has super-strict laws regarding firearms. The Australian government introduced a ban on automatic and semiautomatic weapons back in 1996 following a horrific massacre in Tasmania which left 35 dead. In the decade since the ban, the firearm homicide rate fell by 59 per cent. The latest shooting is very sad, but I think the true tragedy is that events like this seem to have no impact on US-politics.

McNamara" Subject: RE: New Library item: Joni Mitchell This article was so perfect for me just now. I am hot in the middle of learning Joni songs pre-1968 and any tidbit of information about what she was like in those days adds to my knowledge. I also enjoyed the article yesterday where the writer, insightfully, described the real differences between Joni and Joan Baez. Joni says when describing her writing process "Urge for Going came out clean on a piece of paper." Goosebumps. I also like this quote: ""I only hope that I never have to be categorized - just to feel that I am a musician (even though I can't read music)." That could have been a quote from Luminato last June!!! :-) Susan Tierney McNamara email:B sem8@cornell.edu - -----Original Message----- From: owner-joni@smoe.org [mailto:owner-joni@smoe.org] On Behalf Of TheStaff@JoniMitchell.com Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2013 12:11 PM To: joni@smoe.org Subject: New Library item: Joni Mitchell Title: Joni Mitchell Publication: Hoot Folk Music Magazine Date: 1966.9.0 http://jonimitchell.com/library/view.cfm?id=2687 ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:27:53 -0400 From: jlhommedieu@insight.rr.com Subject: Sold out!

What year are we in, again? I've got Graham's book (and Linda Ronstadt's) on order and they might even arrive today. I'm still curious to know what he has to say about his life and music and all that, but he has really lost a lot of points with me over that issue. It seems to me that in the old "I love Lucy" show, Rickie used to threaten to spank Lucy. Talk about infantilizing people. - ----- Original Message ----- > From: Sharon Watkins > To: joni@smoe.org > Cc: > Sent: Tuesday, September 17, 2013 5:22:10 PM > Subject: McLintock! - Spanking Scene - YouTube > > Re: Graham spanking Joni.
