I don't know if anyone here listens to their sports talk show that airs on ESPN radio. I was amazed today to hear lots and lots of chatter about Lightfoot. The hosts, who are about the same age, will be differentiated this way :

mike (average size fellow, journalist)

MIKE( burly dude, former pro football player)

mike spoke of a chance meeting with a teenage idol of his, David Cassidy. Later on he asked MIKE who HE would like to spend an hour chatting with. MIKE responded first with Bill Cosby. When prodded for a 'juicier' name, MIKE said Gordon Lightfoot. mike had no idea who he is. When asked to name a Lightfoot song, MIKE said Sundown (sang a line), TWOTEF (sang a line), Circle Of Steel, and Don Quixote.

mike consistently 'razzed' MIKE about his choice of Lightfoot.

MIKE received a phone text message from Darius Rucker (lead singer for Hootie and the Blowfish) which, in caps, read GORDON LIGHTFOOT RULES.

I'm tired of typing......'twas a great way to start the day.
