Can't win for losing, Doug. I understand why Janel posted her "private post" to the list...because she wasn't sure Robin and her other pals would read a personal post coming to them from her if it was not on WORDS...because they wouldn't have a clue that it was her from WORDS, and a I think they have it figured out now. For a short while, I got to live vicariously through them. Alas, I don't get to go see Robin Gibb (and hopefully Barry...fingers crossed here for you guys) this weekend.

Hi There Janel, Keep sending your plans to meet people on the 4th into the list, Any person who has meet you would feel the deep love you have for Bee Gees . no one will complain when you send your report on the performance to the list next week and remember your promise to me, to give me one second of thought when Robin is perfroming next Sunday.

Show a bit of consideration for the rest of us and change the "To" in your email so that Janel is the recipient (or in Janel's case, Bari is the recipient). If it was only once, it wouldn't be an issue . . . but there have been several exchanges back and forth between the two of you regarding where to meet, etc. I mean, c'mon, is it really necessary for Janel to send an email to the ML alerting you that she'll be sending you a private email and then for you to post back to the ML letting her know that it's "Cool"? Surely not. She could've just as easily sent you an email privately and skipped the one to the ML altogether. > > Doug > (who doesn't automatically delete, because there's always the chance that one or the other of you might be posting something that isn't a private message to the other) > > > Bari Powers wrote: > Doug, you know where the delete button is? > "Words & Music", Fans Of The Brothers Gibb ( Bee Gees ) > http://www.brothersgibb.com > > To change any of your list options, > please go to website listed above. > > > "Words & Music", Fans Of The Brothers Gibb ( Bee Gees ) > http://www.brothersgibb.com > > To change any of your list options, > please go to website listed above. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 01 Jul 2004 20:16:31 +0000 From: katjazz@comcast.net Subject: Re: Robin in MD .... --NextPart_Webmail_9m3u9jl4l_22360_1088712991_0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi, Janel!
