I like it to, and that's exactly what i was thinking about on election day, when they show the map in blue and red...I was like - "God Damn those middle and south states! What do we need them for? That big block can just secede! "

Points to ponder

In reviewing the "ask stevie" history, her responses have usually been brief. Given the amount of questions she receives, and the sorting through of those of questionable content (you know who you are ), I think we should be thankful she has an open-end forum and responds at all - IMO. She may also choose to respond in brief and take her sweet time due to the picking-apart of the words she decides to respond with.

Who knows?

Are you referring to me & my question? I asked Stevie/John/Kelly/Karen/Liz/Chris, "What do you do if the intro to your song starts & suddenly you feel your gut screw up with scramps?"

it's probably the more personal questions...

Has anyone read the "Illume" question? Someone asked what Illume means in the song and "Stevie" (I'm still suspicious that she's actually the one answering these things) said that it means still having hope in a bad situation. But here's the thing, isn't "Illume" (apart from being a word with the conotation of illumination) a brand of candle? I saw some at Central Market the other day and I was thinking, hmmm...."Illume, says the candle that I burn" was probably born from Stevie just staring at her Illume candle one night. Am I reading too much (or perhaps too little?) into this?

If you read the following journal entries, they may provide some insight...

I didn't read the journals, but this sounds about right for Stevie. She probably was just staring at her candle, and thought "what a great word" and it snowballed from there.

...Illume says the candle that I burn...A reflection in the window

If there is an interest in reading the journal entries, it may provide insight into her A's to the following Q's:

Hello there, Stevie...I was especially moved by track #3 on the new Fleetwood Mac LP, the one dedicated to the people of New York post 9-11. Can you tell me a bit more about the song and your inspiration in writing it? I am a long time fan and think its a brilliant piece of work, as good as anything you have done. Stevie's answer: It’s about 9-11. I was in New York that morning, and then stayed in the city until Thursday night. It’s just about that time.

On your song illume on the Fleetwood Mac album called "Say You Will", what does Illume mean?? Stevie's answer: Still having hope in a very bad situation.

may I just say the pic. in your sig. is a VERY sexy shot of La Nicks. I LOVE when she holds the mic. that way and it looks like she is going to fellate it. I mean this chick is 56 and she is still so MF sexy - at least to me and in that shot. The ultimate of that pose is when she sings into LB's mic. at the end of Sara in the Tusk doc. SHEEEEBUS!!!!!!

Bless her heart, but what a stupid response.

Illume is derived from "illuminate." I can say that "headphone" means orgy, but that doesn't make it so.
