I just want to say (and keep in mine that several friends I >love are smokers) that anyone who smokes in a public place indoors where >there are non-smokers is being selfish, cruel, and thoughtless. I myself am a heavy smoker, but for the comfort of those around me and for Tori, I refrained from smoking during the concert. I thoughtlessly asked if there was smoking, but realized in the close proximity, it should be taken out of the arena. The amount of smoke, ALL KINDS, was incredible and with the stage fog made a permanant haze that almost hurt to look through. I agree that smoking should be banned, if not for the sake of the audience, then for Tori. I remember being at an outside concert with a woman jazz singer. We were in a tent and there were a couple of people smoking. She stopped in the middle of the song and said, "Hey Chimneys! Either take it out or snuff em. How you expect me sing with that shit in my lungs?" It certainly worked. Fairy Blessings, Bethey I'm OK when everything's not OK cause it's the Fairies Revenge they say and I have always been a Fairy *************************************************************** *~**Fairy Blessings**~* ~~ tori trades and really deep thoughts~ a proud member of the Tori Traders Ring updated weekly http://www.angelfire.com/pa/bethey/ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 02 Aug 1998 07:16:37 PDT From: "Dan Lucy" Subject: Jackie's Strength/Raspberry Swirl singles Hi. I know that Raspberry Swirl is coming out as a 2-cd release in the UK. What about Jackie's strength? I see it for sale at Music Machine.com for 10.00 as a german cd, but is it coming out in the US at all? or should I buy the german one? Also, what are the bsides?

Just because *everyone* is asking me this question.. >And you can also see the Rapsberry Swirl Promo CD Scans (so Mike, why do you >want rid of it? It must be nice to own it!) here: I got two copies, because a friend had said they wanted one, and I paid for both (obviously) - when the friend decided they didn't want it, I put it up on e-bay, with a starting price of $3 and a reserve of $10 - which I would have accepted! It's not my fault that people started getting silly with the bidding! So I'm not getting rid of it, I still have one, I'm still a Toriphile, I've not been posessed and turned into an evil dealer! Promise! Anyway, I sent infinitely better scans than that to MikeWhy, so with a little luck, you'll see them on "The Dent".
