I'm going to toss this out to all you Lightheads out there...I think Orillia is a nice name so I'm curious if anyone named their children or know anyone named after anything or place in a GL song. Or if they have any ideas. (Once wrote a story with a character named Orillia Simcoe who of course had a brother named Gord!)

My dog is named Jessie, but that doesn't really count. She was named three years ago next month, long before Harmony. And her full name is Jessica Grace. Close as I come until the next pet which is another ten years off, if ever.

Well, okay, I guess I could start naming the Goldfish, but I really hate to go there. They have a nasty tendancy to die and all.

My cat, "Jezebel" aka "Jessie" loves to be called "Morning Glory".

I sing it to her often but she's made it clear that she prefers Gordon's version by nuzzeling the CD player. The rewind button gets a workout.

Yes, my cats have also made it clear that I am not to attempt to sing ANYTHING in their presence. The dog loves me no matter whether I sing or not.

And that is the difference between cats an dogs.

Back in the late 70's and for many years thereafter when the CB radio's were popular,My handle was Lightfoot,given to me by my Mother.Wonder how She came up with that idea??She also gave me the "Iron" thing when I was just a little shaver.She used to say, "Brian Brian tough as Iron".Don't ask why cause I do not know,just one of those things,I guess..
