Last Friday night with my family in front of the TV 8.00pm on the ABC is ... My Family (2002) its about the antics of a late middle age couple and 3 kids starring Robert Lindsay (Hornblower) and Zoe Wanamaker (daughter of Sam) Its a 1/2 hour BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) sitcom..complete with canned laughter..but very funny. So kids are away for weekend...and the adults have house to themselves...so they have sex...lasts 5 mins (can I mention all this stuff??)...you don't see any of this, its just implied. So then they realise they are ALONE!!! and have to do things together...husband (a dentist) ...wants just to read the newspaper...while dizzy wife (London Tourist guide) wants to do stuff..outdoor stuff!!...they get into a bit of a disagreement...which leads to this...... the couple are in the sitting/living room Wife:THAT'S RICH !!!..from a man who stores his CD's in alphabetical order! husband: So......I don't waste time looking for them!!

And if I *ever* make it to Jonifest, I promise I will play this for you. I've been playing this one for fun, but with different chords than mentioned in the above website. I think Joni uses Aminor, C, and E7 chords, but I'll have to watch the video again to be sure, and to see if she really sings "left his dead-ass laying by the side of the road." I love watching how Joni's eyes light up when she gets to the surprise story line of the song! :) Mia _________________________________________________________________ Concerned that messages may bounce because your Hotmail account has exceeded its 2MB storage limit?

Joni is the butt of many a comedy. Most likely written by men who don't get it. Or women who do. It seems the only people who appreciate Joni are chicks, gay men and Phreaks such as yourself, Mr. Ash. Let's have a round for these Phreaks and these sailors, a round for these friends of mine. (When I say "Phreak" esp. with a "ph", I mean it as a good thing; also any mention of Joni, however negative it may appear to be, is likewise a good thing, based on the "There is no such thing as BAD publicity" theory.) ===== Catherine Toronto - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We all live so close to that line, and so far from satisfaction ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2003 22:59:48 +0100 From: "amelio747" Subject: Re: Kate Bush and America Yes that was me!

Michael Paz has found a less expensive way to get the DVD's duplicated, so.....now, the DVD's for Jonifest 2003 are the same price as the videos. What this means is everyone's previous order is potentially wrong, and I am confused to no end over here in MA. If you have already sent in an order for Jonifest Videos or DVD's, you need to do one of two things. 1) e-mail me at this address and tell me you'd like to keep the previous order exactly as is. (This is pretty much for those people that ordered videos and would like to keep that same order, as the price has not changed.) 2) If your order is to be changed in **ANY** way (DVD's instead of videos, overage of money paid, etc.) Please go to: http://www.jmdl.com/jonifest/store.cfm and send in a new order. You will need to fill out a completely new order, and check off whether it's a new or an updated order. You will also be asked to check from several options what you would like done with any overage you may have paid for DVD's. If you have not yet sent in an order for DVD's or videos, this is the time to do it. I'd like to get these DVD's and videos into everyone's hands as soon as possible. So, the deadline for all orders will be November 3rd. This should give everyone ample time to figure out what they want to do, and get me the info. Of course, the quicker the new orders are placed, the longer I have to make sense of everything, which would be very helpful. :-) NOTE: The DVD's are Region -free, and will be able to be played on ANY system, regardless of where you live. Thanks everyone!!

It seems so out of character for her. This cowboy/bandit mythology so popular in the late sixties/early 70s. Counter culture = outlaws, etc. It is a catchy tune, and I've always liked the way the Dead did it. But Joni? I really can't imagine it.

I really can't imagine it. >> I tried to find the lyrics for Joni's "Midnight Cowboy," a song about Joe Buck, the film's Jon Voight character, although it does not seem to be known whether her song was actually written *for* the movie. (How come no one knows?) I think Joni, being a plains gal, feels a lot of kinship with Western/Native American things. Have you seen the childhood photograph in which she wears a cowgirl suit? And then there's "Cool Water" with Willie Nelson. Her attraction to Georgia O'Keefe comes to mind, too. I am sure we could do a very long thread on Joni's Western/Native American references, etc., but I am plumb tuckered out. Time to hit the hay, pardners! --Bob ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2003 22:36:46 -0700 From: "kakki" Subject: Re: lakota Lama asked: > Kakki, what you describe sounds like the "Lakota" video on the COME IN FROM > THE COLD, long-form, video. Slo-mo shots of children, right? This video > (c) 1991 runs about 45 minutes. That is the one. I must have the short-form version of the video because I don't remember seeing it before until at Paz's house. (Funny she released it with NRH instead of when Chalkmark came out.) Do you have any liner notes about it from the video? I would like to hear more about it.

Many here have often asked about the location of Joni and the music gangs' spots in Laurel Canyon back in the day. There is a book I recently browsed through at Book Soup in West Hollywood (also available on Amazon.com) called "The Underground Guide to Los Angeles" which gives a very detailed tour of the Laurel Canyon neighborhood and where to spot everyone's houses. I haven't picked it up yet but will soon. You might want to pick it up while out browsing for new red shoes in L.A. Stephen ;-) > NP: the ceiling fan- it's fecking hot here! Oh is it ever! I had the AC cranked up full blast this evening and it was still unbearable! This is our October Indian summertime.
