Yes, I believe that's what that means, as Lili (so *that's* her name) will
*lip-sync* to JJ recordings. Someone help me out here...what JJ songs
will Rocco and the MLE gang not be able to sing in the movie? I believe
that Piece of My Heart is one...a big draw-back for the MLE version, I do
believe. I was under the impression that after an artist (of any media)
is dead for 20 years, their work becomes public property? How has JJ's
family restricted MLE's use of some of her music in Rocco's film? Also,
will Big Brother and the Holding Co. appear in MLE's movie?
Well, kids...that's it for now. It could be another year before I post
again (it certainly seems as though it's been that long!)...or it could
be another day. Y'all hang on the edge of your seats now, y'hear? :-)
Oh, yeah...one more MLE-related item...I just saw a Polygram compilation
last night with MLE singing YLS...can't remember the name of it, though,
or who else was on it. I'll get back to you with it, though. I *still*
haven't found that karaoke tape, though! LOL!

Subject: *etheridge* NMEC: Suzanne Glass Tape Offer
Hi Everyone,
Happy Sunday. I am relaxing after a gig last night and a radio
appearance (can you "appear" on radio?????) on Friday AM. Ah, the
musician's life!
Heh-heh, it's all true, everything, yep, especially the starving part!
;-) Anyway, last night I was playing outdoors, only about 2 blocks away
from where Crystal Gayle was playing...also outdoors. So I keep hearing
this distant "Don't it make my brown eyes blue....." thing until Crystal
was kind enough to finish early. It was really funny.
ANYWAY, (I am known for my rambling), the reason for this message is to
make an offer for all of you who expressed interest in getting a sample
of my music. Hopefully some of you will like it. So here's the deal:
I will send a tape to the first 25 people who e-mail me, and then send a
padded SASE (takes .78 postage in US). I was going to tree this, but we
run a recording studio, so I can actually do it easier right here, and
you all get a direct-from-CD cassette. On the tape I will put 3 solo
acoustic songs (from my "Live and On Her Own" cassette) and 3
unrealeased (as of yet) studio songs from my CD that will be out in
September. ( This is still un-mastered, meaning it sounds good, but not
quite as good as the real CD will sound in sound quality terms).Anyhoo,
you get samples from 2 different albums, and if you like it, you can
support this poor starving singer, heh-heh. (I am in a wild/weird mood
today, kids!) ;-) AND, you don't even have to send a tape, we have
plenty here. Just e-mail me, send the SASE, and the tape is yours.
*Special* bonus: First 5 people will get a free poster with their tape.
I will hold this offer open until next Sunday, June 22nd. If I exceed 25
requests, I will get the first done, and then post again for anyone else
who wants one.
Here is the address:
Suzanne Glass Offer
Throwing Stones Records
PO Box 602
Columbus, IN 47202
Thanks all, I love this list!

i caught today's earlier broadcast of the E! "behind the scenes"
show, and i can confirm that YES, IT DOES SHOW MELISSA at
the premiere!
they show her complete "interview" that was shown during the
"daily news" show. the complete interview is about 30 seconds
to a minute long.
so, to reiterate, the next time you can catch this show tonight is:
>8 pm - 9 pm: "behind the scenes: speed 2: cruise control" ***
remember, this is PST, so check your local listings. btw, the
MLE interview appears about 20 minutes into the program (give
or take 5 minutes or so).
they also show the 1st 2 snippets that i reported, plus you do
see a suspiciously familiar purple suede (?) jacket (not the
infamous purple fringed number) walking behind during some
other party goer's interview (tia carrere?). it's sometime after the
MLE interview. it's even more FLEETING than the 1st 2 snippets.
back to work - more later...

Subject: *etheridge* Detroit Red Wings
Hello all. This has nothing to do with MLE, but I, actually we, need
everyone's prayers. I live near Detroit, Michigan, home of the Detroit Red
Wings. Well, our spirits were soaring after winning the Stanley Cup, but that
high soon ended. You see, two days ago, two of our Detroit Red Wings,
Vladimir Konstantinov and Slava Fetisov, their masseur, Sergei Mnatsakanov
(sp?), and their limo driver, not sure of his name, were in a terrible car
accident. The word is that there was a stalled car in the middle of the
street and the limo driver didn't notice it until it was too late, so he
tried to swerve, and hit a tree head on. He was wearing his seat belt and the
airbag saved him from major injury, just cuts and bruises. Fetisov also had
minor injuries and is supposed to be released from the hospital tomorrow.
Unfortunately, both Vlady and Sergei had severe head injuries and are now
clinging to life. They're both unconscious at this time. Everyone's prayers
are needed, even if you're not a fan of hockey or the Detroit Red Wings. The
sad thing is that all this may have been avoided. Apparently, the limo driver
was driving on a license that had been revoked at the end of last year. Why
he was driving, no one knows. The limo company swears they didn't know it was
revoked. Rumors are spreading that there wasn't even a car in the road. Only
he knows what really happened and he sure ain't talking. Well, now that I've
got that out, I ask once again that you pray for these two men. Thanks and
sorry that this is so long.

Subject: *etheridge* Hope This Gets Through....FF, NMEC
Well I have had an AMAZING week, it started last Saturday when I arrived in
Austin for the world famous FF. Liz and Mich are the most amazing cooks and
hostesses. I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting many many MElisters and
lots of Liz and Mich's friends.
SueD, well you are my "first" lister that I have partied with 3 times, and
it gets better every time. Montreal, New York, and now Austin. Liz warned me
that last year you didn't quite "make it", but this year I am pleased that
you were conscious the entire time. I guess next year Patti will have to
take some instruction from you. Kare, the Punster, I too enjoyed our little
talk, its sad that we don't all live much closer so these get togethers
could be a little longer and a little more frequent. As for me getting to be
a good punster, well I really only came up with one good one the whole
weekend, but I'll pay a little more attention, and try to improve before we
meet again. Patti, you are awesome!! I'll get wet with you anytime, ;-> I'm
talking about the car you guys...... remember the torrential downpour?
Raunch, hopefully I'll see you in a few weeks, I will get you those names
and numbers for your road trip, looks like Dave and Glenna are going to drop
in this month too, this will be an awesome summer for lister visits!!! Jill,
I am so sorry you left early, I would have loved to chat with you some more,
you are a real sweeheart and I'd love the chance to get to know you better,
next year if we all make it again you absolutely MUST stay in Austin.
Renster, you are cute as a button and I am sorry that you left early too,
I'd love the chance to party with you again, and btw, I'll look into that
cinnamon stuff for you, it is quite the delicious refreshment, but be
careful, it becomes more potent as it ages!!! Randy, I wish I could have
seen your face at some point last weekend, every time I looked at you you
had a camera attached to your eye, you rock woman, hope we meet again soon!
Patty & Cindy, Tiger Lily you guys are great! You crack me up. We ate,
drank, did some tummy signing, watched Melissa videos, chatted, played hacky
sack, (well I tried but wasn't coordinated enough to actually make contact
with the bleepin bean bag), did "Mean People Suck" toasts with Shirl and
Patty on the phone, (Shirl, I miss you sooooo much!!!)and when the tequila
finally caught up with me, I sat outside, closed my eyes and attempted to
sing along with Trent as he played guitar. Sometime shortly after 3 am my
alarm on my watch rang to signify 24 hours of being awake, it was around
that time that I started drinking copious amounts of water, took several
extra strength tylonol, and got ready for bed. The nights were short but
thats ok, cause it meant I got to spend some more time with these wonderful
people, sad goodbyes Sunday afternoon when SueD, Patti and Rachel left, but
it gave me the chance to wind down and spend some time with Liz and Mich. We
drank the bottle of wine donated by American Airlines, went for a drive and
had some ice cream and then Liz and I sat out in the thunder storm until
after midnight, you are a complete doll Liz. Then after chatting some more,
at least until 1:30, I finally went to sleep. Little did I know that two of
the ladies' furry friends Maverick and Zeke (sp?) would be waking me up
sometime around 6:00 am because that is their usual feeding time. All I knew
was that I was in this peaceful sleep and then was being perpetually swatted
on the nose my a fuzzy little paw. It took me a moment to focus on this
brown and black little aggressor, only to have him joined by the grey kitty
Mav. Between the swatting and the purring at me, I had no choice but to get
up. At least I had the chance to say my thanks and goodbyes to Mich who was
getting ready for work. I went back to sleep for a bit until Liz popped in
with Kelly the dog. Liz and Mich have the greatest family of pets. So here
we were at 7:00 am, awake and raring to go, ok maybe not raring, but we were
awake, then Liz treated me to my first viewing of Teresa's Tatoo. Yeah!!!
Not the best film I have ever seen, but it was great to finally see the much
talked about movie. With a little motivation Liz and I finally got our poop
together and I packed up my bag and we went for lunch before Liz took me to
the airport. A definate highlight of my weekend was most certainly the party
on Saturday night, but even more important than all the tequila and fajitas
was the most wonderful people that I spent my time with. I don't think in my
life I have ever met a better group of people than those I have met through
this list. I thank - you all for being who you are and I thank Dave and
Glenna for having given us this amazing place that has bred these wonderful
friendship. For now, I have to be satisfied with contact through e-mail, but
I look forward to he next time that I get to spend some time with my
MElisters friends.
My e-mail server was down pretty well the whole week before the FF, so if
you sent me mail between June 1 and June 7, I never got it, so I ask that
you please re-send. Thats all for now for me, busy week ahead then I am off
to Toronto on business from the 26th - the 29th, then about 36 hours in
Montreal to say hi to mom and dad and then back to Calgary on the 1st of July.
Super busy summer ahead, but for anyone passing through the Rockies, don't
hesitate to let me know, we'll have to catch up for a chat.
Take care y'all (I learnt that in Texas), Joyce

Subject: *etheridge* Melissa Book Import???
Hey everyone,
I remember everyone talking about another Melissa book (Other than
Joyce's) written by some author of a newspaper. Well, when I was working
at the Record store that I work at (how obvious), I noticed a Book
avialable via import titled "Melissa Etheridge: The Only One." and I was
wondering if this was the title of that "other" book available by that
author. If not, then I imagine that i've stumbled across quit a find. :o
So if anyone knows, please let me know if they are the same book!!!
Otherwise, I can try to order it.
I found it through an *import* company called "Phantom." And the
catalog # is 12730 so if anyone knows about it *please* let me know. And
if it's the other one written by the Newspaper guy, then I'll pass,
Otherwise (sorry to be redundant, I'll get it).
I don't know anything about this title, so if anyone has any input, it
will be well appreciated.
Thanks,
Roger

Subject: *etheridge* Old MLE Interview
I was going through some old newspaper articles and came across an
interview with MLE
in the Chicago Sun-Times,on Oct. 11, 1996. In the article, Melissa
briefly discusses the Janis Joplin biopic and her acting. The following
is a short excerpt from the article, reprinted without permission.
A LITTLE PIECE OF HER HEART
By Jae-Ha Kim
Call it poetic justice. Ever since she released her major-label debut
eight years ago, Melissa Etheridge has been compared to Janis
Joplin.
And next year, the singer-songwriter will portray Joplin on the big
screen.
The two-time Grammy winner wouldn't mind adding an Oscar to her trophy
collection, but she is well aware that Hollywood is littered with the
discarded carcasses of good rockers turned bad actors. So she lets out
a hearty laugh when asked, "CAN YOU ACTUALLY ACT?"
"Yeah, I think so," Etheridge said. "Acting has always been an
interest of mine, and I've taken
acting lessons on and off for a long time. This year, I've been taking
serious classes and I found that in many basic ways, the process of
acting comes from the same place as music. When I write music, I have
to go to a truthful place of honesty and emotion, and then I channel it
out that way."
Pausing, she added, "I wouldn't tackle the project if I didn't think I
could handle it. I'm not that much of a masochist."
Her thespian pals Ellen DeGeneres and Brad Pitt also have encouraged her
to give acting a shot. "Brad was really supportive of the whole
project," she said. "He said, "You'll be great. You just do what you
do and hope they use it."
Sylv (who's wondering just how much of a masochist MLE really is! :-))

anyone who is even vaguely familiar with janis' life will know that
there will have to be some serious boozing and drug taking
going on. IMO, i think that a portion of the potential audience will
go see the movie(s) based on seeing this activity on the screen,
just as i'm sure that some will go to see the lesbian sex or some
will go to see the musical reinactments.
whether it's a huge selling point remains to be seen, i guess.
i'm not sure how you would measure which aspect of janis' life
draws people to the theatres (after movie poll perhaps?).

seriously though, to everyone who has thanked me on the list for
the E! show broadcasts, you're sincerely welcome. however, i
haven't done anything special that anyone with an extra 1/2 hour
of time who has access to an online TV listing and a printed TV
guide couldn't do themselves. FWIW, i used the SF chronicle's
online TV listings (http://www.sfgate.com) and this week's TV
guide to compile that list.
tigerlily also deserves our thanks for the original heads-up on
the MLE sighting in the first place.
i'll try and update the list sometime this week, if there are any
other showings of the "behind the scenes" show (unless
someone beats me to the punch), but there are no promises.
i'm seriously busy this week, going to shows and getting ready to
go to LA next w/e to visit jib and my favorite professor. ;-)

the recent article that marcy and JJ quoted appears to be

back on 3/13/97. here are some excerpts from joyce's post
(quoted w/o permission ) which answer some of your
questions:

what exactly are "life rights" anyway? i've read that the estates of
elvis presley, jimi hendrix, marilyn monroe, james dean, and
other deceased celebrities continue to rake in the dough based
on sales of products with their likenesses. however, there have
been movies about elvis and marilyn, and one is currently in the
works about jimi, so how can they get away with this without
crossing the legal line? of course, i'm assuming that those
movies are unauthorized...
>I *still* haven't found that karaoke tape, though! LOL!
neither have i! i tried looking for it at Target, based on gwen's
recommendation, but was unsuccessful. maybe i'll find it next
w/e while i'm in LA...
it's great to see my old pal and fellow BAB'er, JJ, posting again.
can you believe it's been over a year since we saw MLE at the
maritime hall last year? i can't! if they do any filming in the bay
area (and i do believe that both films will have to do filming here),
you better believe that you're on my contact list. :-)
damn, i do believe that this post is long enough...yes, indeedy!
nighty night!

Hi all
Yes the other book about Melissa is called "Melissa Etheridge..The Only One"
by Chris Nickson.This is an unauthorized biography. Nickson, who has written
biographies on Mariah Cary, Brad Pitt, and Keanu Reeves, now turns his pen to
Melissa. This book is a well rounded account of Melissa's triumphant personal
and professional journey into music history. In my honest opinion, this book
is not half as good as Joyce's book but it is a must have for every Melissa
collector.

6. ... share boring and meaningless personal ramblings
Just because it may be boring to you it might give a lister an angle on a
situation in their own life.
7. ... assume that they are the only "Real Fans (TM)" on the list
8. ... wish each other happy Christian or American holidays
Ok since when did we start descriminating by religion and nationality?
I can't say merry christmas, happy independence day,dominion day etc...to

and finally, the most horrific of all
9. ... make assumptions about other listers' sexuality
Wow I never knew it was against the law to discuss your own sexuality.
She never stated that we all are "Dykes" she just said she was proud to be

Learn from this and you will spend your days in harmony, and maybe

Hey Joyce, I usually come up with one good pun for an entire week

Hi, all! I know that there has been discussion about NMEC stuff in this
list! I thought I would offer to do my part! I have been *very* impressed
with Mr Miller's BAB listing, and I thought I would offer to do the same for
the Denver and Colorado area. If anyone is intersted, let me know. I think
it is so super sweet of him to meet people and make them feel welcome when
they visit the Bay area... I thought I would offer the same! Although, DAB
sounds a little tacky, doesn't it?
I really enjoy all the banter in this list! You guys really make me smile!
Thanks so much for that!

actually, newman (i can't help but think of "seinfeld"!), the
producer of the "other" janis movie, said the "tremendous
amount of lesbian sex" quote. IOW, he was referring to lili taylor
not MLE.
i'm not saying that the MLE/rocco version won't have a
"tremendous amount of lesbian sex", but i'm trying to clarify that
neither of them (i.e. MLE/rocco) said that.
geez, i'm not sure i *articulated* that very well...

And me you Joyce. Thoughts of you bring smiles to my heart. So Joyce did

I was fortunate to touch base with the FF'sters from my Hotel room in Ca.
Sorry I missed out on all the fun but there was business to attend to as
well as some pleasure... and if the business part of my trip
works out I may be calling CA HOME in the very near future!! So Joyce we
will then be on the same coast at least and maybe I can come party with
you on your birthday this year?
Sooooo many new faces on the list. Great to see our numbers growing. If
anyone would like me to put some FF pictures out on my Web site for the

i have it, but i'm not sure which server the channel #Etheridge is on.
i know it's registered somewhere, i'm sure the list of servers it's

type /j #etheridge and it should create one for you.

Hello peoples...hope that this finds you all well. Just passing to drop big
smoochy hellos to you all (well, to those I know - it seems you are a dying
breed!!) (oh what the hell, even to those I don't know!) Haven't been around
of late due to heavy gigging commitments.
Hey went out and checked out the Rogue MArket and bought lots of shares in
Melissa - and it seems like everyone else did too because the price for them
went up about $10 each - we should all clammer for them to send them right
through the roof. I wonder what rumours we could start to send them up!!!
(This is only a game!)
One other reason for this note is to ask if everyone who ordered their cds
got them and to encourage those of you to feel free to comment (to me
privately - I am a tender soul!) Some already have , and thank you to those
folks. Please feel free to be honest! (Dare I be so bold as to say that to
this list!!) No seriously we are interested in hearing your thoughts. For
those in Aust the title track has been picked up by Triple J and the video
has been picked up by RAGE..so please keep you eyes out.
Just a quick hello note - is everyone that I know still here??? Should I
send another 'introducing myself' note...oh dear, one would think that I am
premenstrual and suffering from feelings of left out-ness at the moment.
Fare thee well all

Hellooooooo MElisters,
I supose I may get flamed for this, but.......
I must agree with Laura. Not only did I NOT recieve a set of posting
rules when I joined this list, I had a hard time even posting in the
beginning! It seems that there have been a lot of new listers, like
myself, who havn't been on-line that long. Of course I can't speak for
everyone, but I'm still learning all the cool things I can do with my
'puter. Including posting on the list, clipping properly in responses,
sending files, and basically using everything available to me on this
incredible medium!
Speaking for myself, I LOVE THIS LIST!!! I've not made any assumptions
about the people here, except (of course) that we all love MLE. The
folks I've corresponded with seem genuine. Sometimes we all need to
talk about what's going on in our lives.
Often it helps to get objective views from people who don't know you
personally. If that's boring to some, then skip the post. Just
remember.....
"take a walk inside my shoes, a path I didn't choose
spend the night inside of my skin"
"touch, touch what I feel, and know I believe everything I say"
"I could have been you" MLE
Meanwhile.....be good to each other, ok?
Teach Peace. Stay Strong. Speak True.

Hey You Melisters!
Remember me?? Poohster here. Hiding as a brown beach bear! :)
Well you all sure have been a busy bunch of peoples haven't you.
What can I say but that I go away and you deal with sadness and list
manners.
Whew!
Let me drop a few lines in here and let you know that when life is too
much and sadness creeps into your hearts one needs to close your eyes
and breathe deep and realize you lived through it!
And you are a better person for it. For you are still standing and are
stronger than ever. Sometimes when sadness overcomes me I crawl out on a
limb of my favorite oak tree and see how small I am to be held in the
arms of nature.
This time I decided to see how very, very small I am at the shore of
the ocean. In the depths are tormoils and nothing is as vast as the
waters around you when you stand there at its shore. Even so, when you
step back and take a look, on the beach you will always find small
treasures offered up by the rough waters as gifts to warm your heart and
teach you once again to smile.
There is nothing on this earth that can harm you or touch you once you
find your center and it is filled with love.
As the sun sets into the ocean in the evening hours one can see or hear
one of two things. The hissing of the sun as it cools itself and is
embraced by the ocean or the sweet sigh of relief as the ocean takes
hold of the sun and holds it for yet another night.
As for BeachDeb and Rehoboth beach. All I can say is if ever you go to
Delaware and visit Rehoboth one must see the sweet smile of Ms. Jones
and bask in the sun and her kindness for she truly will show you how to
smile again and warm your heart with the sunshine of her smile.
And one more thing, if you post her don't believe everything she tells
ya about bears at the beach and paws full of dollars for the slot
machines!! :) Well maybe you can believe some of it! :)
It is good to be back and enjoy the words from your hearts.
Sincerely,
"POOH"
P.S. As for list rules. I have always felt and know it to be true that
if you say things to people that you would want said to you it is a
better way to converse. Take head from your sandbox days and know that
if you are kind and share your toys you will probably get to laugh and
play freely instead of sitting alone and crying to be able to touch the
toys you have never seen before.

let's get one thing straight. do not stereotype all christians as
homophobic preachers. I am a committed christian, yet when it comes
to GLB issues, i'll back up the GLB community 100%. I have been
asked to leave churches because i have insisted that GLB's CAN
be saved, as God loves us all. i am not a "preacher" either,

Subject: *etheridge* Everybody needs a place to go
Listers,
Well i have been on this list since Jan of this year. I think that this
group of people is the kindest, most compasionate, helpful, and experienced
will healing wounds that I have EVER meet or heard of. I posted about a
month ago during a very painful time for me. In return I got around 20
letters wishing me well and giving helpful advice from those who had been in
my shoes. They helped me tremedously! I tried but never got to thank
everyone, so thank you. Some people have no other place to go but this list
for help and guidance. No matter what some people may think this list has
grown into a family. We came togeather to honor Melissa and her music, that
was our common bond. Now we share so much more, our sorrows, happiness, new
cars, stories of old cars, loves, compassion, tattoos, and so much more. We
share our lives togeather. We have become a family.......and I am damn proud
to call myself one of your sisters or aunts whatever you need. I know you
all where here for me in my time of need and it made me strong enough face
the next day. If I can ever do that for someone on this list I will, and I
know that there are others out there who will do the same for each and
everyone out there.
Now that we are living to see 2 second melissa moments why not help out
the fellow listers with a kind word of encouragment. Mother Teresa once said
"Kind words are short and easily spoken, but remembered for a life time" I
will always carry around you all in my heart and computer.
..........One more thing........there is an info list only for those of you
out there who don't like all of the *personal ramblings* but for me I like
tham just fine!

Subject: *etheridge* list frustration, MLE discussion topics (SMLEC)
halfpint responded to kate blackmon's
post (which, btw, was one of the *funniest* things i've read in a
loooong time - flame away):
>> 2. ... quote an entire post and add 'me too'.
>
>yes that is aggravating.
and not only quote the entire post only to add "me too", but also
quote the *trailer* that esosoft automatically attaches at the end
of each post. so, we get the trailer twice! ack!
>> 4. ... don't read the FAQ
>
>what FAQ? i never recieved any FAQ.
the FAQ is located at the list web site: http://www.ecw.ca/mle.
most, if not all, lists have one. it's always a good idea when first
joining a list to 1) sit back and observe the discussions before
jumping mindlessly into the fray and 2) read the FAQ. many
questions would be answered if one took the time to do these 2
things.
the list web site contains a great wealth of information. dave and
glenna have done a *fantastic* job of compiling all of this
information in one handy spot. i'm constantly going there to read
the archives, probably because i'm just a wee bit sentimental
lately. i urge everyone who hasn't visited the web site to drop
whatever they are doing, and go now!
>> 5. ... start discussions of Christian theology
>
>let's get one thing straight. do not stereotype all christians as
>homophobic preachers.
whoa, nellie! now, who's jumping to conclusions? kate *never*
said that all christians were homophobic. FYI, her list was
specifically referring to list topics that have caused flame wars in
the past, hence her "You have summoned the ghost of flames
past, eh" comment. the "eh" is the topper, btw. ;-)
there are many topics that one just shouldn't discuss on mailing
lists - religion, politics, abortion, etc. - without risking a flame war
because they really push people's buttons.
>> 6. ... share boring and meaningless personal ramblings
>> 8. ... wish each other happy Christian or American holidays
>
>lighten up.
again, kate was referring to topics that have caused flame wars
in the past. not everyone on this list is christian or american - the
last fact should be blatantly obvious because our list owners are
canadian (the ".ca" in the list web site means the server is in
canada), and the list goes through a server in germany (search
esosoft in interNIC). also, wishing all listers a "happy easter" or
"merry christmas" have caused a few toasty list moments in the
past. ;-)
>> 9. ... make assumptions about other listers' sexuality
>
>does anyone's sexuality matter?
it shouldn't, but you wouldn't believe how many times many list
folk have assumed that 1) all listers are female and 2) since all
listers are female, then all listers are gay. i'm not saying that
skategrrl did this, but again this is another one of those things
that have caused flame wars in the past.
if the newer people are wondering why several people (sarah,
kate, jen, and now me) are exasperated with the list lately, it's
because it's turned into one big sappy therapy session, IMO.
damn, even the tired, old "which covers should MLE do" thread is
looking mighty interesting right now! i'm seriously tempted to
track MLE down while i'm in LA next w/e, slap her silly, and tell
her to do *something*, because we're sorely desperate for a
topic! :-)
since i'm of the feeling that one shouldn't complain about
something without offering a solution to the problem, how about
the following list topics?
1) what's your favorite MLE lyric(s)? why?
2) what's your least favorite MLE lyric(s)? why?
3) tell us about your first/favorite/worst MLE concert.
4) if joyce luck was going to brew another batch of homebrew,
what MLE-related thing would you name it? ;-)
if i had the time before my vacation, i'd post one of my
outstanding YCSWID tour reports (3 and 1 wrapup left), but that
ain't gonna happen anytime soon.

Well,
I see the infamous Pooh has made it home safely..
First let me say I am glad about that.
Now let me say I am disappointed in all the listers- especially the Pooh fan
club members for not responded to my last post.. I mean I wrote Pooh was
STREAKING through the streets of Rehoboth and no one even blinked an eye!
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I got to spend the week with her and let me tell you this woman is a maniac!!
You should have seen her in front of a slot machine! 'Wild and Loose'!
(note: that's the name of the slot machine with Melissa's colors)
Actually, this was one of the greatest weeks I've ever had. She is one of
the kindest people I have ever met.
We are very lucky she shares her insights and her inspirations.
Pooh, you are being missed terribly!
The beach, the slot machines, and BeachDeb will never be the same.......

Alright, Rhondda, I'll take you up on your challenge! Actually in a

secret... I don't like the lyrics to "IWCO" on the YLS CD. I know,
everyone loves it, it's hackneyed as hell on the local radio stations.
I just don't like it. Call me insensitive, up here in the north we

Hey, y'all!
Rhondda asked: <<4) if joyce luck was going to brew another batch of
homebrew,
what MLE-related thing would you name it? ;-)>>
There is no question about it! It would be called: "Pooh-Brew!" :-)
Rhondda, thanks for clarifying Kate's post. I, also, thought it was
hilarious. For the doubtful: she's not exaggerating. In the past, this list
has indeed degenerated into flames over the very items mentioned. Kate's
post was good-humored in intention.
It is not a bad idea for folks who are new to the list to go through the
archives. I don't think it's necessary to go all the way back to 1992 ,
but I think I remember reading somewhere once (in some sort of "Guide to the
Internet" thingy) that, when joining a mailing list, it is expected that you
read the list's FAQ and any archived posts from the past 6 months before
hopping into the discussion. That way you learn the expected list etiquette,
and you don't bring up for discussion topics that have already been run into
the ground. I would say reading the archives from 1996 would be worth
it...and a lot of fun, as MLE was touring then.
To the new listers' credit, I'm not so sure since we aren't coming from
McGill any longer, that the FAQ is automatically sent out to new subscribers
now? If not, perhaps it ought to be?
Peace,
Joyce :-)

What I really wanted to do was quote Rhondda's entire post and add "me
too" at the end because that would just about sum up my feelings of late.
I decided to take her MLE bait instead.
>1) what's your favorite MLE lyric(s)? why?
There are soooooo many, but I think "I need some insanity of that
temporary kind" takes the cake for me. Sometimes temporary insanity
seems like the only way to get through certain situations.
Of course, the imagery caused by "cotton candy fingers and a snow cone
mouth" is just wonderful also.
So many more are coming to mind now, but I'll spare you all.
>2) what's your least favorite MLE lyric(s)? why?
Hmmm, I can't think of any. I guess that makes me a RealFan. ;)
>3) tell us about your first/favorite/worst MLE concert.
My concert reports are in the archives. ;)
>4) if joyce luck was going to brew another batch of homebrew,

How about Barley Jean?
