Badmouthing other people is nothing but a goddamn bad habit -- call it "expressing your opinion" or not -- who was it who said, and I paraphrase, that honesty is sometimes just a good excuse for brutality -- but Joni is a Scorpio so hey, if she's going to diss others, she's going to do it cuttingly and well. And she has. What she says is true; that makes it even more meanspirited, as someone of her talent, wisdom and stature could afford to be more generous and gentle in her judgments. Remember Bambi and Flower, the skunk? "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." This is very good advice a lot of the time. But we all get meanspirited once in a while. Most of us don't have our nasty words printed and repeated, that's all. Though we sure as hell get misquoted, don't we? > From: "michael o'malley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > See this two-hour documentary at > http://www.bravo.ca/aw_music/ > (I'm just sick because we don't get this station in Quebec City!
