So, what ever happened to the "off-line" EDA's? Do they still do the annual litter pickups and homeless blankets/food back stuff? Or, did that run out of steam?

Sorry! But, i totally forget the name of the guy that used to organize that.

Jessica · « **Reply #62 on:** October 12, 2015, 04:10:53 PM »

That ran out of steam, I think. I never see anything about it at all.

food bank stuff. Ugh, autocorrect!

The guy that invented autocorrect is going to a special hell where millions of people constantly talk to him and nothing they say makes any sense... but maybe it does because it's close to making sense if he could *just* figure it out... but it doesn't.

Autocorrect is a horrible horrible thing. But, I don't even feel good about his fate. That is going to be an awful eternity.

And, yes, I remember ducksoup... and I think the mailing list might actually still be going. But, it was another guy that did the charity stuff... Mike maybe? oh well never mind.

aw, it's alright. By now, I think humanity is accustomed to seeing past most autocorrect errors. I knew what you meant.

Yes, most folks know the ducking frustration of autocorrect.

I have mine turned off. It's inconvenient sometimes, but I'd rather the typo be mine than some robot's misinterpretation of life.

My mom is really really getting into Jewel more. I mean, she already liked her, but after me winning a Mother's Day contest for her and getting a copy of Lullaby, she would listen to that album a lot. And then over the years she would ask what's going on with Jewel. And then we both went to TexFest together and afterward she'd keep asking about the people she met. And now with all of these appearances, she's been watching past and present interviews. She watched Jewel's first Howard Stern interview and was talking about what she did/didn't talk about vs. what she talks about now. And the last thing my mom asked about? When is Jewel gonna put together another EDA show because now she wants to go!

She had to miss it last year because she couldn't take time off work on relatively short notice.

If it's in Nashville again she said that'd be a great road trip.

Hell, if any fan gathering happens then I'm sure she'd still want to go!

I converted my own EDA without even meaning to.

Nice! I can imagine it's pretty cool you can share this with your mom.

Yay, Javo! The board's working for you again!

Javo · « **Reply #73 on:** October 15, 2015, 10:13:33 AM »

Yes, I'm glad it does! (it was a thing at my computer, still doen't know what, but rebooting helped)

My Mom is enjoying some of Jewels "country music" sounds, and enjoyed the articles about Jewel appearing with Johnny & June Carter Cash at the Royal Albert Hall shows in London. Johnny & June were Moms favorites and I was dragged all over Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky to there shows in the 1960s, Mom doesn't travel any longer but she still enjoys the music.

It is great your mom enjoyed the EDA functions and can still travel to share it with you.

Still haven't listened past the first five songs.

Why so serious? In the cover photo, I mean. She looks ready to kill.

This display was in the Walmart Garden Center/Christmas shop today. Let it Snow was one of the 12 albums there, and Joy was in the nearby $5 bin, too. Figured it was interesting...
