Q318 .... Peace .... = Canary Yellow Canoe YES !!

OK Ron I figure 1/2 the folks do too at times ! And BTW - recent changes to relax the game somewhat are dubious...included looking up is not cheating, its now left to the individual's discression which I regret changing that -as it can make for 6 songs correct in 1/2 hour for one person - no fair - but, its player's choice for how they have the most fun. Now if only one person is cheating, and clears the board in 1 hour, while other poor saps are head-crunching the songs (terrible prase,that) its makes a mockery of the game and fellow players. So what to do ? I still think like what most players are doing is the coolest - getting it in there heads.... and moreover we are not requiring lyrics anymore - If you got 'em - print 'em, if all you can hear in your head is the title - so be it ok DOkee. WHAT DO YOU MEAN RON, lol YOU DON'T APPRECIATE THE SOARING VOCALS, THE GRAND ACOUSTIC GUITAR, AND THE (TRULY) INTERESTING GEOGRAPHY ON THE RIVERS huh huh ? lol

Everyone has too have an Albatross lol....... its actually been growing on me....like a carbuncle...lol....hey its still Lightfoot, its cool ! I have the impression The Man got a chuckle out of putting it at the end of disc 3 after all that 'when I was in my prime' music !! Dare I say he's human, and not every song has that ...'Lightfoot feeling' .... you reckon ? I'll post it. Thank you for the honesty and for playing Ron.
