I thought it would be only directly related to news/info on her and her art. I must say I am very disappointed and a little irritated by all the NON-joni communications on this list too. Some of it seems more appropriate for personal/one-to-one email rather than for others who come to this site because of Joni Mitchell. I don't want to read about Ed Ames or other singers who have nothing to do with JM. I don't want to read about someone's personal life issues. ]It's wonderful that you all are friendly and intimate with each other, and I am grateful that all of this is here for our enjoyment. I enjoy getting info on other people who cover her songs, or where people heard her music playing. I just hope, since the jmdl is set up this way, that NJC will actually be on the NJC, and not be added to the joni-only digest. Or is there another list that is REALLY only JM content?? Thank you. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2001 11:37:13 -0800 From: "Mark or Travis" Subject: Re: joni only content I just hope, since the jmdl is set up this way, that NJC will > actually be on the NJC, and not be added to the joni-only digest. > > Or is there another list that is REALLY only JM content?? > Thank you. > I didn't put NJC on my Christmas reminiscence/greeting because the greeting was meant for everybody on both lists.

As far as disappointing, I can get this kind of attitude anywhere, anytime since it is very prevalent. The NJC tag is exactly so that people that find other items disappointing won't have to read them. Mistakes do happen, however, since we are all human here. Never has irritated me though even when I find something that doesn't necessarily interest me. I am not on the only Joni content list since I want more but it is sad, to me, that someone can listen to the music and words of Joni Mitchell and even post something like this. How can someone who claims to understand Joni Mitchell even have these kinds of sentiments? Sad. mack > HI everyone, > I went through the other options for receiving jmdl news, found too much > other chatter about so much non-related info, so got the "joni only content" > digest.

Hello, I have two reactions to this. 1) please lighten up, it's christmastime. people want to send the occasional holiday greeting message or share their christmas experiences, I don't see why that should be a problem. The other non-JC stuff, well, as Mack said, people do make mistakes. 2) from a technical POV, what would fix this is all content assumed to be NJC unless specified otherwise. That way, instead of an "NJC" tag, we would put a "JC" tag on anything with Joni content. I think that would eliminate the "false positive" Joni content. But then you'd have the other problem; some JC would go unlabeled because people would forget. what do all of you think about this?

Here's the content again, more or less. I'm reading a short story which includes the following text: "A short dumpy woman came shuffling down the hallway wearing an orange muumuu and green go-aheads." Would anyone out there in jonilista land care to explain to me what this woman was wearing, please. It's from 'Cruising Paradise' by Sam Shepard, and that's as close as it gets to joni content. mike in bcn np 'African Blues' by various artistes. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2001 18:09:20 EST From: RoseMJoy@aol.com Subject: Re: American English VLJC In a message dated 12/26/01 5:53:58 PM Eastern Standard Time, ink08@hotmail.com writes: > down the hallway wearing an orange muumuu and green > go-aheads."

I post asked if there was a way to get Joni newsand information through this list without having to wade through the Ed Ames' stories and personal lives of the list members. Essentially, you said anyone who enjoys Joni's music should be interested in reading about your personal life and those of the other list members, and it was sad if we were not. YOURS was the post that was insensitive and rude. Paul I ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2001 22:36:34 EST From: RoseMJoy@aol.com Subject: Dreamland comin on & Dec. 27th!!!

Get the picture? The green go-aheads I'm guessing are heels. The entire ensemble describes a sort of a stereotypical kind of slobby "American" look.
