Thanks Lynn.

uh-oh, I am having a blabberty-fit on a philosophical approach to the game being just for fun, with non competitiveness. If you want to by-pass my brain-sneeze, simply drop down this post to the good ole' Yellow BACK TO BIZ below ! ...lol

How are you today Lynn ? You're well on your way to a majority victory in this list. whoops - I caught myself...this a only a game for fun w/o winners or losers. But... I remind myself, as a group we do not want to try and engender a competitive situation, and the all-too-common unfortunate ends it can take. I speak only of my view point; I think I ought to simply speak out in my oft mini - blah-blah's and at times BIIIG bla-blahs,(sorry Lynn) we are here to have fun first and foremost ! so I choose to mid-course self-correct to speaking much less with cloying sports analogies and cliche'd competitive rousting locker-room motivational speaches.....

In turn then, speak of what I read into Lightfoot's philosophy via my own attempt at interpreting his via his lyrics; complicated thought it may be, he speaks more of simply happiness and sadness, joy and sorrow, and the occassional in-between ethereal purely philosophical or spiritually-focused songs, (to name a few), which he has far more the eloquence than I in. Nor would it be as a group norm reccomended to go into the three things we are taught to avoid talking of in social settings. The third becomes ambiguous in many families. In mine I'll simply state the most common fist two frequently taught: I'll avoid politics &religion, and add avoiding a competitive mentality, as I have mildly been pushing in the blah-blah block area above x-files.

Rather, I'll avoid those land-mine strewn and innappropriate-for-this-thread subjects, and sports cliches, and lame tired old motivational rah-rahs I caught myself slippping into (the latter two). I will speak enthusiastically of simply having ....a breather...a good time w/o consequences. Put simply... while the thread does hit the gas pedal on heavy thinking, it is for simply having fun; no winners, no loosers, just fun gaming and mild escapism, all admirable and I hope no down-side - pure intelligent fun. This all pertains again simply to me catching myself on rolling down the wrong tracks -rah-rah sports metaphors and sense of competitiveness in my talkety block areas, and here in the unfortunate recipient of my ex-cogitations in what could be a simply be a 'yes !', or 'no...sorry response' - to your submission oTJ. Sorry about this; I had to get it out of my system. I saw my blah-blah blocks between 'UPDATE' and the x-file block getting strewn with cliches and non germane discourse to...just..having...fun.. I have to do this periodically oTJ, or I suffer a mind implosion, and all who suffer in a ten-minute radiius !..lol..

Back to BIZ:
ok:
1st:Q330 Reminds... = 'Bells of the Evening' ? Yes, it sure does !
"Reminds me of the redwoods and moss covered ground"

2nd - Q335 .... woodland, water .... = Pussywillows, Cat Tails ? Yep !
"Rainpools in the woodland, water to my knees"

two more 'REMAINS UNANSWERED' - down, 2 to go !

Thank you Lynn for putting us 2 closer to a full board, and for having the dubious distinction of being the recipient of my blabberties simply by it occurring while I was in response mode to your post ! - and Thanks for playing !
