Hey everyone! I wanted to thank all who answered my last question about
Miles of Aisles...and to let y'all know that Delta Airlines' inflight
magazine ( I think its called "SKY" magazine) has a wonderful feature article
about the Mermaid Cafe of Matalan in Joni's "CAREY"...sadly, I was on my way
to my home state of Georgia for a funeral and figured I'd grab a copy on the
way back to Jersey, BUT THEY WERE GONE!! My sister works for Delta so I'll
see if she can grab me one, but the article was great! Its in the July
issue, reprints the lyrics, and points out that there is/was no actual place
called the Mermaid Cafe in Matalan, Greece when Joni was there...(is this
true?)...then the article asks several writers to describe their own 'Mermaid
Cafe' and a discussion on what a Mermaid Cafe is..."it can have no more than
three wines on the wine list" and "the jukebox only plays the songs you want
to hear and when you want to hear them", etc. All in all, a very unexpected
and welcome surprise while flying 33,000 feet over the Shenandoah Valley.
Maybe someone already has it out there and can post it for all. You guys and
gals all seem so sweet...love reading my "jmdl" in the morning over coffee.
Roberta Joan Rules! Bye, Harry
