A month ago, i read somewhere on the net something Joni said about what happened that night. She said that she and Don, while being at Myrtle's, decided to move the beds to the windows and that it was infront of the windows that they made love, where all the neighbours could see them, naked and making love, from down street. Seems to me that Myrtle cared not for what the neighbours might think, but rather for what they could see. Nuri Tired of spam? Yahoo!

It's so interesting that this comes up on the list. This is a conversation i had recently over a few pints of guinness. Some people just have a face type. Everywhere i go people talk to me (and especially drunk people) - even when i don't want them to! Don't they realise i am an unfriendly, humourless control-freak? Every bus, train, plane i take i meet people. In fact, one of my very good friends i met on a plane (actually in the airport before boarding hte plane and then we sat together and are now good pals. OK, there's moer to this one, but still). Last week i went to Cork for a conference. The lady beside me on the train (it's a three hour journey from Dublin) took to chatting with me. It turns out she too is a Beckett fan. She retired early and has been taking it easy for the last few years and ensuring she gets a holiday every month, but she had worked in a similar enough field to myself. Yesterday on the Dart home from work a man start chatting randomly; he got off, a woman sat beside me and asked about the book i was reading (On Beauty by Zadie Smith; i utterly adore Forster's novels so had been wary about reading On Beauty; enjoying it very muchly so far). Turns out, she knows Zadie Smith. A couple of nights ago a woman from Florida started talking to me, she had missed the city centre and ended up at my stop. I was on my way to the theatre so we took the bus together. No joke, i must have a friendly face. Or sumptin' like that cos i can't get away from people chatting with me. Dermot finds it very very odd to the point that he has asked me to ensure that i don't even vaguely glance in the direction of other people, lol. I wonder if Wally K could give us some psychoanalytic explanation?? GARRET NP - Leonard Cohen, Alexandra Leaving (oh my god what a great song. His voice may not be Mariah Carey exactly, but come on fols, this is grrrrreat) Date: Fri, 05 May 2006 11:55:18 -0600 From: Kate Subject: Myrtle Bob: > Meanwhile, Myrtle was sitting there with a sour look on her face, probably > wondering "who do these people think she is - Kitty Wells?" Oh, I don't know, Bob. Some people just have that kind of face. I'm one of them. Date: Fri, 5 May 2006 11:01:37 -0700 (PDT) From: Smurf Subject: Re: Myrtle Kate, I loved everything you said and I agree with you. I heard someone recently talking about how his face makes a natural frown. Someone asked him, "How are you today?" The sour-faced guy said, "I'm fine." And the other guy answered, "Well, tell your face!" --Smurf, who also has one of those faces . . . ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 6 May 2006 04:21:18 -0700 (PDT) From: Bob Muller Subject: Re: Covers Vol 76 Hi Rebecca - thanks so much for your thoughts - so awesome to see them. And thanks for the correction on Mark Murphy, I assumed he was English so thanks for straightening me out. I hate that it takes so long to download, but even then it's faster than the mail. Keep those thoughts comin'! Bob NP: Prince, "Adore" Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Those of you who were around then remember the chain of events; after Volume 1 there was a buzz about gethering as many as we could find, so I had folks send me whatever they had, mostly on cassette - and while there were some obvious choices, there were many obscure ones as well. The original Volume 2 was 4-cd's worth, because I included tracks that Joni performed on as well as covers. I have since gone back and remastered it, deleting the "Contributions" and using better source recordings for the covers. This made it a 3-cd set instead of 4. Here is Disc 1: Part 1: http://download.yousendit.com/CD8289E866BF6172 Part 2: http://download.yousendit.com/DE51FB7243773CCC The tracks: Susan Webb - A Case of You Jesse Hultberg - The Priest Tuck & Patti - Woodstock Sharon Cuneta - Both Sides Now Ian & Sylvia - The Circle Game Maire Brennan - Big Yellow Taxi Nancy Wilson (Heart) - A Case of You Paul Young & Clannad - Both Sides Now Lambert, Hendricks & Ross - Twisted Lambert, Hendricks & Ross - Centerpiece Tony Rice - Urge For Going Kristen Vigard - Man From Mars Wynonna - Help Me Kevyn Lettau - People's Parties Lani Hall - Banquet Judy Collins - Both Sides Now (1998) Barbra Streisand - I Don't Know Where I Stand Judy Collins/Richard Stoltzman - For Free Betty Buckley - If I Remember You Right/I Had A King Enjoy, Bob NP: Donald Fagen, "The Great Pagoda of Funn" Tired of spam?

I hear it in the wind today, as I gaze out on the "lilac sprays" outside my window. "Look through any window, yeah, what do you see?" Joni everywhere! Love, Patti P. NPIMH: two songs at once! uh oh...and now three! ("my analyst told me, that I was out of my head....") ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 07 May 2006 00:35:12 +0000 From: "Michael O'Malley" Subject: Sid Marty - Depression Days I heard an interview with beloved Canadian poet, songwriter and park warden, Sid Marty, on CBC radio this week. He spoke of his early days as a performer in Calgary, remembering evenings at the Depression Coffee House, when fellow performers would flip a coin to see who got to sing Four Strong Winds. Speaking about his peers, he fondly remembered a certain Joan Anderson, who played ukelele. He sounds like a great guy. Bet he has a few good stories...
