She can be quite self-indulgent and boring in fact. But I do like her opening lines from 4th of July: "Today's the 4th of July Another June has gone by And when they light up our town I just think What a waste of gunpowder and sky." Something evocative and unexpected in those words. Jerry ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V7 #102 *********************************
