I'm sorry, but I was under the impression this was a pun-free mailing list. There are small children who have access to these letters, you know. :) Oh, and in case I don't get another chance before I leave my computer at school to return to lovely California--safe and joyful holidays to the lot of you. (However, y'all need not take that as an excuse to unleash an avalanache of "Happy Christmas/Merry Chanukah" mailings to the group!) timshel - --J *** Joshua 'schwa' Loring Colvin Tropp Swarthmore College 500 College Avenue Swarthmore, PA 19081 e-mail: jtropp1@swarthmore.edu phone (610) 690-3992 "...I had yet to see myself become part of a story. I had as yet no notion that life every now and then becomes literature--not for long, of course, but long enough to be what we best remember, and often enough so that what we eventually come to mean by life are those moments when life, instead of going sideways, backwards, forward, or nowhere at all, lines out straight, tense and inevitable, with a complication, climax, and, given some luck, a purgation, as if life had been made and not happened..." - --Norman Maclean, USFS 1919: The Ranger, the Cook, and a Hole in the Sky "...the word timshel--'Thou mayest'--that gives a choice. It might be the most important choice in the whole world. That says the way is open. That throws it right back on man. For if 'Thou mayest'--it is also true that 'Thou mayest not'...this is a ladder to climb the stars...you can never lose that. It cuts the feet from under weakness and cowardliness and laziness...And I feel that a man is a very important thing--maybe more important than a star. This is not theology. I have no bent toward gods. But I have a new love for that glittering instrument, the human soul. It is a lovely and unique thing in the universe. It is always attacked and never destroyed--because 'Thou mayest." - --John Steinbeck, East of Eden ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Dec 1998 13:50:59 -0800 (PST) From: mike smith Subject: MM: Little God I heard at one of her shows that the song is acutally about her old dog. It was called Myrtle and Patty couldn't say dog or Myrtle so she called it Little God, instead of Little Dog. Isn't that funny? She is so cool that way. So, she put a spin on dyslexia. That is soooooo cool. Artists are just that way, huh? The thing that is funny is that there are all these references to human body parts where dog parts should go. Example: "You shake your little fists." Instead of wag your tail. That is so cool. The other thing that is great is that on the WRNY interview with Chris Myers, she explained that she had a 150 lb., Saint Bernard when she was 2 years old. So, the irony is that the dog was actually huge!!!! Mike _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

(Grover would yell that on Sesame Street when he was Supergrover) :P Welcome "V"! I really enjoy the MM list, too, because everyone on it(except ME of course) is fairly intelligent. I'm glad to see a couple of people coming down here to florida! Hmmmmm, if the MMrs start coming down to FLA, then maybe Patty Griffin might come down to FLA. HMMMMMMMMMM. If anyone personally knows Patty Griffin on this list or members of her band, or her management, could you please please please please please influence the situation in any way you can to have her tour in FLA? And I don't mean Miami either, that's like a 9 hour drive. I know, I'm beating a dead horse. She's not coming down here, is she? All y'all up north and west get to see her perform. And everyone in Austin gets to see her like once a week. I guess I'm going to move. This Florida panhandle stuff is really starting to bite. I wanna see Patty Griffin! Yeah well, I'll stop crying about it. But I have to say that it's those posts describing the concerts that keep me alive. YES! Keep um coming. Ah, gotta go. Sorry, I don't have too much to say this week. I guess I'm drained for the holidays. peace love and vegetable rights. paul ********************************************** * 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 V2 #386 *********************************
