I never said there was. I had a message from someone named Mike Smith on this list who called me a folk nazi. Let's see if I can paste this here. He said... "Patty is not capable of selling out you Folk Nazis!!!!! LWG was never meant to be heard as was released by the label."... I just responded. So I don't actually tune in to Public radio during the folk hour, big deal? Read my frikin post again and point out where exactly I wrote that folk music is bad. I dig Dylan, baybee. But I don't got none of his CD's. :P I just said, uh, I don't have any Folk music in my CD collection, so don't call me a folk nazi. And then I said something like I didn't think of Patty Griffin as a folk singer. So I don't! What's it to ya, mate? But I'm ranting here, I'll stop because this doesn't really bother me that much. I've just been in front of this damn computer all weekend working on web pages and I'm all fried. I'll bet computer screens give people cancer. I'm routing for this Y2K thing to kill these addictive plastic parasites. I just thought I would set my previous post straight before I get 800 emails from folk music lovers telling me what kind of dick I am. :) eh, go ahead on second thought. I don't care. ;) peace love and vegetable rights paul russell in frickin freezing Florida ********************************************** * If you want to sacrifice the admiration * * of many men for the criticism of one, * * go ahead, get married. * * --Katherine Hepburn * ********************************************** ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V3 #4 *******************************
