Hmm. Never hearing "Indian Outlaw" or "Don't Take the Girl" again? That's
even more appealing than the prospect of checking out Faith's kini shave.

I believe that it was Oscar Wilde who tried to believe three
impossible thing before breakfast every day. That's pretty poor stuff
you're telling, there. I heard that Tim and Faith have been working
with a faith healer, and that Tim is now pregnant. I also heard that
they have thrown aside the rotten popsicle stuff and are now working
on the Skillet Lickers repertoire and their fiddle and banjo skills.

I was hoping it was Faith Petric and Tim O'Brian.

O Yes You Would! Just tune into the nearest country station on your radio
dial and you will hear the sound. Doesn't matter who is actually playing and
singing.

I know only too well, because when shopping for used CDs I find good
bluegrass and old-time country music mixed in with mainstream country music;
I know all the album covers of best selling CDs by heart (it's amazing how
many k.d. lang CDs are in the clearance bins where I shop).
What surprises me is that the packaging for the new Faith Hill album appears
as if it were made on a bad photocopier, which I guess is the look the
artist and label were going for, but it causes me to wonder if it isn't the
easiest album in the world for bootleggers to duplicate (I don't think
bootleggers bother with old-time country music CDs, so the Document label
needn't worry).

(I've been trying to track down who originally said some quotes I
like, and find the internet is almost completely inaccurate. For
instance, I still don't know who said something to the effect that the
woods would be a silent place if only the most musical birds sang.
Popular vote on the internet attributes it to Thoreau, but that's not
right. And if someone said it, where did he/she say it? I want to look
up the quote to see if the next sentence was even more memorable. In
the case of "Alice," it's not: "There goes the shawl again.")

That quote is not from "Alice..." but from "Through The Looking
Glass." Take My Word For It.

You're both wrong. There's no such book as "Alice in Wonderland." There are
"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass and What
Alice Found There."

Next time I run across a misattributed quote, I'll leave it alone.
Someone will now respond that the correct title should be "Alice's
Adventures Underground."
Has anyone tried singing any of the Lewis Carroll poems?

Well, no. "Alice's Adventures Under Ground[sic]" was the original hand-written
manuscript with illustrations by the author. The later versions (including
"The Nursery Alice") featured the Tenniel illustrations, which have become so
standard that attempts to publish the books with any other illustrations have
flopped.
I'm wondering what all of this nitpicking has to do with Faith and Tim.

Nothing, of course, but I find it more interesting than the original
thread. Let's see now -- which one was running around nekkid and which
one was gonna hang it all up for domesticity?

Ah, but that was a misattributed misquotation, after all. Next time

I'm sure (We now know what that's worth.) that I heard a recording of
somebody singing Jabberwocky when I was a teen. I think that there was
an LP of Lewis Carroll songs at that time.

The first would have been Alice, if the Rev. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (a/k/a
Lewis Carroll) had his way. He was a dabbler in photography and liked to
photograph nekkid little girls--make of that what you will.

C'mon Bud. They weren't nekkid. They were pretty, and he probably was
a pedophile, but you've done him an injustice. He was much more than a
dabbler. He was only a Rev. because he had to be to teach at Oxford at
that time. I've seen photos he took of Alice -- cute stuff. She was
the daughter of Henry George Liddell, Dean of Christ Church College,
Oxford, and thus Dodgson's superior (Dodgson taught mathematics in
Christ Church. Take a look here:

>a pedophile,
Well, I don't wish to slander the man. But I read many years ago that he did
indeed feel that the naked bodies of young girls, unlike the bodies of young
boys, were very beautiful, and he did photograph some of them. I've never
actually seen these, I admit; and his very proper photos of Alice and other
little girls are good, even by today's standards.
At any rate, the Alice books are masterpieces. If you have ever dipped into
"The Annotated Alice," you can see what some people have found in these
seemingly innocent tales of a young girl's dreams.

If I recall correctly there was something in the New York Times a few
months back about Victorian gents liking the very young girls.
Something about it being relatively accepted so long as nobody talked
about it. go figure.

Robert Palasek
exhibited the collection of Dodgson's photographs.
Hundreds of photographs of children, mostly girls.
What was striking is that there did not seem to be
one happy child in the whole collection. I do not
know whether that is attributable to the necessity
of having to be still for a clear exposure at that
time. 1850's?
David Sanderson
No real evidence he was a pedophile, I think. He was a fairly serious
photographer, and included nude children in his photos; there may have
been an exhibition of his stuff recently somewhere or other that I heard
of. There's the whole issue of Victorian images of childhood operating
there. As far as I know, neither he nor Alice played the fiddle (token
content...).

You are probably right. However, Alice's name was Alice Pleasance Liddell.
http://mural.uv.es/anma/bioalice.htm
Picture of Alice here. Note that she looks nothing like the Alice in the
Tenniel illustrations, who actually was a girl named Mary Hilton Badcock. But
I digress.
Her father was Dean of Christ Church, Oxford, and the students used to recite a
bit of doggerel: "I am Dean and this is Mrs. Liddell; She plays the first and
I the second fiddle."
And there's the fiddle content.

Hmmm... Methinks the Bud is actually the "Duc de Wonderland"
(Or the Jack of Hearts... painting the town red.)
A closet Carrollphile, perhaps? Or a professional Carroller? ;-)

True, Ed. I think the Alice books were the first "big person" books I read as
a child, and Alice became my first storybook heroine. I used to have copies of
all of the different versions, but most of them seem to have been misplaced
during a move a few years ago. :-(

Sadly when I was on a Carroll research kick about 15-20 years ago I
encountered what I considered to be plenty of real evidence that he
was. But surely this list is for discussing musicians who performed
