ahh,,

gord does another unique twist of pronunciation/rythym during 'Fading Away' with the line "One more day on the calendar on my mind" on the word calendar. where the stress is on the second syllable such as " ca-'len'-der" instead of 'cal'-en-der where the stress is on the first syllable.

one more reason to love how gordon can turn a word.

as well. i really really enjoy Uncle Toad Said. our farm is named 'Croaking Frog Farm' in reverence to all the frogs we have locally. in the spring, when toads are doing toad things and migrate from pond to pond, our road is literally covered in toads. we 'must' get out of the Bronco to brush them off to the sides of the road.

best to you ...
