No, I'm saying you can't judge a book by its cover. Whitley could be a nice
guy, but he could also be pretty awful, and apparently the same is true of
Ms. Morgan as well. It's probably true of a number of other people, too
<g>.

I read it - in fact, I reviewed it for Country Standard Time, and I don't
think Jeff ever gets rid of anything, so what I wrote is probably still up
on the site somewhere.

I dunno, what's it mean?
The book appeared to me to be a fairly clear-eyed portrayal of a marriage to
a talented alcoholic, but of course neither of us is really in a position to
know about the dynamics of that relationship.
Bottom line for me is that Jon Randall Stewart's a talented guy, and she's a
talented singer (she flat out tore up that "I've Enjoyed As Much Of This As
I Can Stand," which was, BTW, written by Bill "I Get The Fever" Anderson),
and either their marriage will work out or it won't; it doesn't make much
difference to me either way.
