Njc, JC now but what the heck I'm pretty sure that people from Mississippi call it Missip anyway. However, I love the way Joni squishes a bunch of words into one line as in that example from "Richard". It's the verbal equivalent of using 16th notes or 32nd notes (which I guess you'd have to do in the music as well, to make it fit the musical line.) On the other hand, I also love a goofy rhyme and this one from The Simpsons always cracks me up: Some folk'll never eat a skunk but then again some folk'll like Cletus the slack-jawed yokel. > From: "Bob.Muller@Fluor.com" >To: jlhommedieu@insight.rr.com >Cc: joni@smoe.org >Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2014 8:27:22 AM >Subject: Re: If the words don't fit, cheat.

Njc, JC now but what the heck And of course, who pulls off this skill better than Joni? I heard this couplet this week ( a cover) and I totally love how alllllllll these words get crammed in to these syllables: "I'm gonna blow this damn candle out, I don't want nobody comin' over to my table, I got nothin' to talk to anybody about" I even give her a pass on the double negative.
