My best friend in high school, his mom grew up with Gordon Lightfoot and she went to school with him from kindergarten right up to high school. Their house had autographed pics and framed backstage passes of Gordon Lightfoot. Every Christmas he sent her a card. Being rockers us kids didn't really like him, although I always thought the Edmund Fitzgerald was a cool song.
In 2004 we had the freak flood in Peterborough, ON, my dads basement had 6 feet of water in it. Later we went and saw Gordon Lightfoot at a flood relief benefit concert.
That was the same week(s) that I learned my older brother had throat cancer that eventually killed him.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
