Ah, Julius, my sweet Joni amigo -- you owe me an apology, BIG TIME! A few days ago you chided and chastized me thusly: "I'm all yours and UCONN's, sweet Patti Parlette, if the Huskies are in the NCAA Final Four and my Stanford ain't. But when it's SHOWTIME in the pros, it's every man for himself, every woman on her own! There's no "Joan" in NBA basketball, babe. This is Big Boy School! :-) " And so I think to myself, "Patti, maybe you really HAVE gone over the edge with your JOMCD, as your friends and family tell you. Better step back. Maybe you and Joni have no business in "Big Boy School" where the wild things run really fast. Knowing your attitude's all wrong you've got to change, and it's not easy." So, I put myself up in a sterilized room. But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? I am NOT twisted after all! Woke up, it was a Detroit morning, and the first thing that I saw was the Joni sun in Julius's post: "Now this JC from the newswire. I guess there *is* some Joni in NBA basketball after all. - - -Julius ________ The Return of the Zen Master With his surprising return to coach the Los Angeles Lakers, Phil Jackson inherits a weak, dispirited team, including one Kobe Bryant. WEB-EXCLUSIVE COMMENTARY Newsweek Updated: 4:52 p.m. ET June 16, 2005 June 16 - Hollywood sequels seldom rise to the level of the original production, and Phil Jackson?s return to coach the Los Angeles Lakers and Kobe Bryant doesn?t figure to be an exception. We sportswriters have had more than our fair share of fun abusing Detroit Pistons Coach Larry Brown for his wandering ways. The man certainly does, as the old Joni Mitchell song goes, ?got the urge for going.? ......" Huh? Huh? What'd I tell ya? HA! SEE???? I knew what was happening! I knew I was a genius! What's so strange when you know that there is something of Joni in EVERYONE, just at this moment of the world!!! Seek, my brothers and sisters, and ye shall find Joni in all things! And now to be a tad more serious: I'm watching these games and have become totally fickle. I don't even know who I'm rooting for anymore ("And it's one, two, three, who are we rooting for?...."). Feeling too foolish and strange to say the words that I had planned....I guess it's too early, 'cause I don't know where I stand. At first I was all for my Rip and his Pistons, but then along comes Julius! We have had a beautiful communion in cyberspace and on the telephone lately ("...telephone, even the sound of your voice is still new, all alone in Connecticut and talking to you....."), which is such a joy to me. He comes for conversation, and he comforts me sometimes. And then he tells me how much he loves his Spurs and how he went to games with his Dad (father/son "Field of Dreams" sap gets me everytime) so I really don't know where I stand in this series. I really don't know! I don't know...... But hey, it's just a game. I do agree that the Downing Street memo should get more of the spotlight. "The world is full of madmen and shortsighed money-mongers. Mandela, Tutu, the Dalai Lama -- other than them, the world is totally lacking in great men." Yep. Joni nails it again. Happy Friday everyone! Lots of love, Patti NPOMTV: Ringo and pals rockin' on Good Morning America. Good ole Ringo! Looks like he's having a ball. And he is singing: We all live in our Joni submarine, Joni submarine, Joni submarine We all live in our Joni submarine, Joni submarine,Joni submarine. As we live a life of ease Everyone of us has all we need Sky of BLUE and sea of (a little) green In our Joni submarine. Yeah, those are the words I'm hearing....lol! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2005 10:38:56 EDT From: Dflahm@aol.com Subject: (no subject) Kakki, you wrote: It's clear to me and I am satisfied with the conclusions that we apparently had some bad intelligence and based our foreign policy on it for years, long before Bush became Prez. But isn't the point being made by some critics, currently, that during Bush's administration something like the opposite occurred: the policy came first and the "intelligence" was (choose a word) required/edited/misinterpreted to conform to the policy? I believe it will be many years before a consensus is even approached about whether it was prudent/realistic to try forcibly remaking Iraq into a society more resembling US-style capitalist-democracy. A consensus about the moral status of such a venture will probably NEVER exist. Bush et al, however, are responsible for the inadequate force levels in 2003 which allowed the insurgency to take root and flourish.
