She appears to be a very emotional woman with quite wild mood swings from time to time. It just shows she’s human like the rest of us. Christ, if I a fiver for every sh*t day of my life I wouldn’t have to work again. She seems to have it together at the mo and that makes me happy.

The original "King Kong," for example, is still one of my all-time favorite movies--a classic. But it's not realistic. All I ask of a movie is that it take a concept (no matter how unrealistic the concept may be), insert characters into that concept and then have them behave the ways those characters would behave in that concept. My problem with "Big Daddy" was not that it was unrealistic, but was insulting. However, you're right about Adam Sandler--his movies are consistently without redeeming values, the worst examples of pandering to the lowest common demoninators of taste and humor. These movies can de done well, as last year's "There's Something About Mary" proved. The problem is that, as adults, we have the ability to determine these things, yet this trash will be viewed by much younger, far more impressionable children who will get a far different and unfortunately a far more literal impression when the moron Adam Sandler plays in this movie utters lines such as "You know what else tastes good? Smoking dope." Last night I went back and saw "Limbo" for the third time and it was reassuring to see that great moviemaking is not impossible. I also thought the latest "Star Wars" was a stunnent achievement of visual imagination. But I would certainly not call it realistic. Now, to bring this back to the subject of this list. The one redeeming feature of "Big Daddy" was that it served as yet another illustration that Sheryl Crow has no superiors when it comes to "selling," not merely just "singing," a song. It's always refreshing to see an artist approach a song he or she didn't write from the inside out instead of the other way around. I only wish more "artists" would treat their craft with as much respect as Ms. Crow. ------------------------------ Date: 30 Jun 99 08:57:08 PDT From: Michelle McHugh Subject: Maxim Mag I know there have been lots of requests from those of us in the U.S. who are not able to get the Maxim Mag with Sheryl on the cover...but, here is one more. I really want a copy. I have also been going to the stores every day looking for the July issue and they never had it and then finally they do but it is not her on the cover. I was so disappointed. Anyway, I can't offer much in trade besides some pictures from her concert in New Orleans. I was on the fourth row and got some okay shots of her but of course it was dark and if you know who she is you can tell it is her but they aren't crystal clear. I would make copies if anyone in the UK is interested and would send me the magazine. Otherwise, if there is anything else I could get you from the U.S. that you don't have, I will do it.

It was cute, sentimental, and funny. Get a life man!!!!!! >> I feel I do have a life. Interestingly the professonal side of that life is as a movie critic and a professor of film at a local university. And, from an objective viewpoint, "Big Daddy" was an example of poor filmmaking. It is not, objectively, a "good movie." At the same time I will admit to my guilty pleasures--there are movies I have "liked" that are not good movies in the objective sense and good movies that I have not liked. Whether you "like" something and whether it is well made are two entirely different arguments. You have the right, as an individual, to like anything you want to and I will respect that. As for a personal life, probably the movie affected me on an even greater level, because I am a single father who has raised a son all myself from the time he was 18 months old. Next month he celebrates his 21st birthday. He is an anthroplogy major at a prominent university. Had he been raised by someone such as the character as Adam Sandler, he would have been dead or in jail. I find it insulting to my intelligence that this movie suggests we should accept a character such as that as a role model. Enough said. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Jun 1999 14:29:41 -0400 From: Brooke James Subject: UGH!!!

I saw the movie and found it hilarious. Sure, Sandler plays a father that most of us could not imagine, but you know what? Somehow he succeeded. That is worthy of note, no matter how much you like or dislike that way he was portrayed as a parent. In my opinion, if more kids had parents like him, people would be better off and not as uptight as you seem to be.

Not only is it food, but it is 2 year old food. I myself have a habit of cleaning my freezer out every couple of months. Anyone who would buy that is, well...an interesting person. And, out of curiousity, how exactly would you ship such an item? I can't imagine it showing up in someone's mailbox, in a priority mail box! :) The logistics in sending a piece of frozen cake across the country without it unfreezing are sheerly mind boggling. And can you imagine it getting lost in the mail, and rotting in a dead letter bag? Eewww! Very odd. Very odd indeed.

They have a nice little sign at the SC section stating that if you buy The Globe Sessions, you get the CD single for free. It is a promo and not for sale separately. Well, we all have TGS already, so just try what I did. Find the store manager, tell her/him that you really want the SCOM CD, but have already purchased TGS. Chances are that you will walk out with the CD single in hand and not a penny poorer. It worked for me, it can work for you :) *Note: It is the same version (3:51) that is on the "Big Daddy" soundtrack, so if you were planning on buying that just so you could get SCOM, you should try my suggestion first. I think I should also mention that the pictures of Sheryl on the CD inserts are, well, ummm......yummy? Yep, that's it. Yummy. Get your fire extinguisher ready guys ;) The Wherehouse also stocks The Globe Sessions songbook. If the one in your area doesn't have it, I'm sure they can special order it for you.
