We know better because she confided to Kakki and Steven that she'd >rather Write but it's not coming. I asked her if she was writing and she said no one wanted to hear what she had say anymore. After our protestations, she said she had sort of stopped writing but the events of 9/11 had provoked some writing again. Guess she did not do much more with it, but a whole lot of paintings did come forth from that time. You sure were right in predicting that her reunion Kilauren may have caused a sea change in motivation. Kakki P.S.

Al played Joni's song, "Be Cool" from her CD "Wild Things Run Fast" He made the mistake of saying "Free" instead of "Fast" but he gave a very glowing tribute to her after the song was over. Believe it or not, I've never heard "Be Cool" because I lost track of Joni in the 80's and I do not have many of the CD's from this part of her career. I really liked the song. Though many shy away from the Smooth Jazz scene, this program is different because Al can play whatever he wants to on it. He plays Native American Music, World Music, even a song entitled "Lover's Waltz". It was absolutely beautiful. The program is five hours of the most eccletic mix of music I've ever heard. Al also promotes local artists which will include me in the next few weeks (I have an email to prove it!) I keep putting a bug in his ear to get syndicated! He also plays Richard Stolz' (sp?) version of "For Freee" sung by Judy Collins (last week) I knew there was a reason this guy and I get along so well! I wish you all could have heard Al's glowing tribute to Joni. It made me very proud!!!

I work with several dear coworkers who celebrated this day as well and I meant to try to understand what it was all about. I can understand why Joni would be intrigued by these words and their meaning. There is a certain beauty and wisdom about the day that I can see Joni feeling and I feel as well. I can see why she would want to explore it further. Sherelle Laurent wrote: Some of you might remember from previous years that Yom Kippour, which just ended, is a day of mortification in which we pray G_d for forgiveness for sins committed against Him, (not against fellow men who can only forgive themselves). So I've going to this Congregation for 12 years and read the same prayer book and today, I've just noticed a very small passage I hadn't paid attention to before. It goes like this (from bad memory and translated from french): The lion is powerful, so is the BRUTALITY of my passion to acquire material things ... A sheep trembling at the lion, king of animals, is like my INNOCENCE against my passions... The matter I'm made of gets pulled in four directions: ...., corruption, ........, false pretenses (sorry I forgot the other 2) and I will use every ARTIFICE to satisfy those pulsions. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Without proselytising, you may be aware that Madonna is very much involved in Kabbalah and following jewish rituals. That particular group is a sect, IMHO. But that's just an example of an artist who found some answers. That is not to say that wisdom cannot be found in other religions of course.

Those who dare riding a car know that somewhere along the way they'll get hit with stones thrown by religious kids, and this year a child who was riding a bycicle got beatten so badly he nearly died. Beaten ny whom? By those who after beating him rushed to pray for forgivness from what's his name. People who eat pork all year long, would curse a gay guy when spoted at the street, would treat women like dirt, would use their power as soldiers to abuse arabs, all those amazing folks do not eat on that day and are falsly singing their prayers - because they know that what's his name has promissed to forgive them. This day is nothing less than THE national hypocracy day of Israel. But don't you worry - we've got lots of others too.
