The Irish poet, James Clarence Mangan, was living in the gutters of Dublin, drinking heavily, wearing a witch's hat, sporting a frightening appearance. Some nuns took him in and put him in front of a mirror, thinking to frighten him into cleaning up his act. He said, with a flourish, "that's nothing to the state of the inner man!" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2001 21:58:24 -0400 From: "Joe Lanzalotto" Subject: Re: [RS] Re: shindell-list-digest V3 #242 I second that one.

Keep the change. > > > I'm tellin' ya, a single live + a promo EP with a few bonus cuts on it to appease the completists, ala SNP and the Spring EP. C'mon, that'd make us pretty much all happy. (And I would agree, double live discs well, you're talking a near $30 price tag, and I just can't see that selling on the level of SNP.

His line was "it's a beautiful day. Tomorrow I go back to winter." Sounds like a song! lisa ------------------------------ End of shindell-list-digest V3 #244 ***********************************
