================================================ Subject: Re: [ Creed Discuss ] Access Hollywood From: "* Kate *" To: Date: Sun 27 Oct 2002 15:07:42 -0500 ================================================ It's easier to tell he's kidding if you see the interview, I agree, but do you really think he's make a comment like that in all seriousness? I was just surprised to see you of all people, Joe, interpret his statement that way, since your sense of humor has been very evident on this list, and I admit once or twice I've believed what I read until I had to think about it ("Oh my God! He coughed up a lung...oh...wait." :) -Kate >From: "Joe Earles" >Reply-To: The New Improved Less Lame List >To: "The New Improved Less Lame List" >Subject: Re: [ Creed Discuss ] Access Hollywood >Date: Sun, 27 Oct 2002 07:31:15 -0500 > >Well you know, sometimes it's hard to read emotion into text but I thought >that if the sentiment was something different than what I saw he didn't go >to great lengths to make it clear. > >----- Original Message ----- >From: "* Kate *" >To: >Sent: Sunday, October 27, 2002 2:57 AM >Subject: Re: [ Creed Discuss ] Access Hollywood > > > > Let me ask you this-did you take the comments about his sister >seriously, >or > > did you feel it was an inappropriate attempt at humor?
