Has Michele changed my mind? No, not really, regarding my original assertion that, taken over the whole piece, both LB and SN are very careful about what they say about the day of the argument in 1987. It could just be that our judgement of what 'careful' means doesn't agree, but I still think they talk around it, and that that's deliberate.
Has Michele changed my mind about whether SN has embellished and changed the guitar-chucking episode? Yes, I think so. And I also think that she's absolutely right to bring up that the state of SN-FM relations colours what she says. 
Two other wee points: I think the HSML dance is sexy, too. And I'm a woman. (I registered when I was trolleyed one night listening to Tusk, used a name that's a private joke and now have to live my whole Ledgie life with it!  ) |
Thanks, Miss/Ms. Jellyman for the very nice reply and clarifications. I'm glad you knew there was an attempt at humor in what I wrote.
Of course, your points are beautifully stated and very interesting, and hot dang, there's another good writer to enjoy on The Ledge. There's quite a number of exceptionally interesting bardscribes here.
So, you were "trolleyed" were you? I love that! Never heard the term before, but it requires no translation! More, please.
I am
so sorry I called you 'Mister', yikes. I'm on a Mister kick, lately. I should stop.
Oh, and, you wrote 'the first thing is, I'm back on The Ledge'-- that's a really good sign- your life is over! Kidding of course, see it's 4:57 a.m. as I type. Some of us go to bed when others like you wake up at 6:30 am, others never seem to sleep...except when I drone on. I know, hard to imagine, but it's happened.
Oh, ok, ok, it was sexy, already!
Everybody says so! What was I thinking?
