Hey, I was there and it was awesome!
This breakthrough has sparked some discussion on this list.

Subject: MJ&S info!

i noticed as we watched Mother Jugs & Speed for the second time tonight
that in the scene where Mother first buzzes through the group of
nuns in his rig, his left front parking light/turn signal is burnt
out.  is it a mistake, or was the director trying to convey Mother's
"burnt-out" attitude to the audience?

also, Jeff noticed that the U.S. flag flying over F+B Headquarters
is a 1976 Bicentennial flag, thereby confirming the year the movie
was made.  (Jeff was too lazy to mail this in himself)

---

I think that Mother felt he was obligated to have control over the nuns,
sort of a "Mother Superior," if you will. Mother's relationship with the
nuns goes from playful (at the beginning), to curteous (following [SPOILER!]
Leroy's death), and finally back to playful (at the end). Mother seems to
have done some serious soul searching between the 2nd and 3rd nun incidents.
Netters?

As far as the date is concerned, it says 1976 on the video tape's label,
but your keen eye for detail noticed the flag waving over F+B. Cool!

Subject: you and MJ&S digest

being the MJ&S digest administrator, do you ever mail things in to
the list?  one would think that you would be one of the most prominent
participants, as you were the one that had enough interest in it
to start the list.  but this is not the case.

explain yourself, list person.

I've submitted things before (check your back issues, Netters!)
In fact, I sense a posting of my own in the very near future.
So lay off me, man.

Subject: fruitless search

I just returned from PRC (the Peoria Record Company) and Rock of
Ages. Neither establishment has a copy of the much sought after
Mother Jugs & Speed soundtrack album. I should have gone to the
record convention yesterday. Perhaps amongst the bootleg Metallica
video tapes and Iron Maiden limited edition interview picture discs
there was this album. Or perhaps not. I have no way of knowing now.

That's all for this issue!
Keep on truckin'!
