Both Tem|jin (the Jenghiz Khan) and Nurhagi (the Manchu warlord 4 centuries later) worshipped the Blue Sky. I've been immersed in Asian history, so that jumped right to mind. Mongolia/Southern Siberia/Manchuria resemble North Dakota and Canada in terms of climate and environment, so I think Joni would be pleased at the analogy. Besides, didn't she say: "Forget what I meant, what does it mean to you?"

Inspired by Smurf's Seuss parody, I cranked out one based on the premise that Ernest Lawrence Thayer (Casey At The Bat) wrote "The Last Time I Saw Richard": The outlook wasn't brilliant for Richard & I that day; 'Twas Detroit in '68 in a boring dark cafC) And when the waitress stepped up and offered me a spoon Richard rudely noted that my eyes were full of moon The other patrons rose to leave, while some enjoyed their stout They heard Richard's accusations, they saw my mournful pout They thought, "A cad that Richard, we can't believe our eyes And shame on him for telling that young lady pretty lies!" But James preceded Richard, as did also Jackson Browne, And the former was a junkie, while the latter was a clown; And so the patrons wondered; whobd be the first to shout For there seemed but little chance of these two working issues out Then Richard played the jukebox, to the wonderment of all, He pushed three buttons boldly then returned unto his stall Just then the barmaid stepped up and let out a hearty cry "Everyone drink on up now, for closing time is nigh" Then from behind my 17 glasses there rose a lusty yell; It rumbled through the canyon, it rattled in the dell; I stood and stared at Richard, cleared my throat as like a cough For it had come the time for me to tell poor Richard off! "You havenbt really changed," I said, "You're still the same old twit, You have some pain inside your head, you're romanticizing it Those love songs are like tombstones, they're heavy as concrete Oh when oh when will you awake, and get back on your feet?" Richard went on to marry a gal who glides upon the ice, And purchased some appliances, he thought them fairly nice But now he sits all by himself and drinks his life away Remembering when I told him off in our cynical cafC) Oh, somewhere in this favored land dreamers are passing by Lovers walk with arms entwined and breathe a lovely sigh And somewhere men are laughing, and little children shout; But Detroit is far from joyful b mighty Richard has struck out. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 4 Jun 2003 14:26:44 -0700 From: "Victor Johnson" Subject: RE: What If... > Oh, somewhere in this favored land dreamers are passing by > Lovers walk with arms entwined and breathe a lovely sigh > And somewhere men are laughing, and little children shout; > But Detroit is far from joyful b mighty Richard has struck out. LOL!!!!!!!! By the way, yesterday at Whole Foods, I was treated to not just one Joni song on the store speakers but two- "California" not long after I got there and just as I was starting to feel completely worn out, "The Last Time I Saw Richard". And these are not songs I would typically expect to hear on the radio...satellite and online seem to be the way to go. Speaking of baseball, the Braves beat the Rangers last night with a dramatic eigth inning pinch homer by Andruw Jones...and I don't think he was using a corked bat.

Her speech was more about the costs of "democracy" - more of a call to action to the American people, complete with irony, a leftist perspective and a bit of humor. She was historically correct, and I think that the points she made were valid in terms of citing some of the many events preceding Bubba's actions. I see that you are suspicious of the "far left wing conspiracy theories" and that's why you wouldn't find her arguments convincing. I can respect that. I just had to respond by saying, imho and from what must be a farther leftist perspective than you, that Roy does indeed know what she's talking about. Bottom line is, Bubba's got to go and it would be refreshing if more of my fellow American citizens didn't fall for his "freedom" game.

I get tired of listening to snide accusations that can't be proved. Roy delights in pointing out hypocricy and injustice, but she uses too many catch phrases that are merely throwing raw meat to a left wing audience. It's getting to be so predictable that you can just wait for certain key phrases and beliefs that will always be trotted out for applause. And she doesn't turn that same brand of logic on the left wing, which would be just as easy, which is why she is suspect IMHO. If your really a critical thinker, you can tear both extreme wings of the political spectrum to shreds. She's just an ideologue, and her speeches aren't going to do anything to get Dubya unelected. Probably most of the people who think like Roy will merely faction off left wing votes on far-fetched left wing candidates (Socialists, Greens, etc) and simply help Dubya get elected again. ==--=- Jai Ma===- Nick Main Entry: ideo7logue > Variant(s): also idea7logue > /'I-dE-&-"log, -"ldg/ Function: noun Etymology: French idiologue, back-formation from idiologie Date: 1815 1 : an impractical idealist : THEO RIST 2 : an often blindly partisan advocate or adherent of a particular ideo logy ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2003 00:07:55 EDT From: Warrenkeith91354@aol.com Subject: Re: miles of aisles...the truth about Gomer I'm going to have to jump in here guys and provide the truth about Gomer, he is from Mayberry, North Carolina.
