Life being the "circle game" it tends to be, as people age they often come back around to nostalgic memories of their childhood. Joni was born in 1943. The 40s were all about "romantic" images, especially in the movies, in which many (if not most) of the actors smoked. So perhaps it's not so odd. Debra, I do see your point about the statue being viewed 100 years from now. (Of course, pessimist that I am, I don't expect anything to be here then.) Lori ~
