...If the document filed by Miss Morris paints an uncertain picture of Joni Mitchells future, it also hints at the tormented private life of the gravelly-voiced singer, who in her glory years had flings with the Hollywood lothario Warren Beatty and the musician James Taylor, partied with The Beatles and the Rolling Stones and saw her albums, with their confiding, confessional lyrics, go platinum.
Mitchells latest medical crisis is just one in a long line of threats to her health. An only child, she was just nine years old when she contracted polio. She defied doctors predictions that she would never walk again, recovering after treatment in a childrens hospital, where she sang at the top of her lungs, despite having already started smoking cigarettes which became a lifelong addiction.
Although she has complained of poor health for decades, it wasnt until 2010 that Mitchell first said she was suffering from Morgellons, a rare condition widely thought by doctors to be delusional, in which victims believe they are infested with disease-causing fibres and parasites. It was identified only in 2002 by a Pennsylvanian lab technician.
I have this weird, incurable disease that sounds like its from outer space, the singer declared.

James Taylor ....spiked her latte!
Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you got til it’s gone...
I know how she feels, only in my case it’s chiggers. It’s scary to do work in my forest this time of year.
Of all the things I’ve lost it’s my mind that I miss the most.
She’s infested with the guilt that comes with liberal white privilege.
Just mix a pyrethrum and water solution and spray it on your clothes. We do it for ticks at work, grandfather used the version called Raid ;-)
A local garden show said if you fill an old sock with sulfer , tie some string around it , and tap it on your legs and ankles occasionally , you won’t get bit . I haven’t tried it yet .
I predicted this when those Atari games game out and humanoids starting playing them a lot.
My business interfaces with the music industry so >90% of business relationships are with uber-leftwing socialists/progressives.
Their current fav term is “white privilege” and these same white leftists throw it at any Constitutional Conservative...yet exempt themselves.
These leftists simply cannot grasp reality including leftism has always been the home for racists.
No doubt I’ve lost business for being a “radical” Constitutionalist.
On the plus side, she released some fantastic material in her heyday.
Libs encase themselves in a bubble of denial to protect themselves from the crap they attempt to push down the rest of the world. Classic Animal Farm play.

I learned a great trick to use on libs which drives them nuts.
“* RULE 5: Ridicule is mans most potent weapon. There is no defense. Its irrational. Its infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.) - Alinsky”
If you need more proof, look at what Iran is doing to us and how Obama is giving into everything. Ridicule the lib, extract concessions.
Maybe those warnings we were given in the 70’s about having flashbacks as a result of taking LSD are real after all.
From what I can tell hypochondria and liberalism seem to go hand in hand. A study should be done!
