Apparently Canadian song-writing and performing icon Gordon Lightfoot was at the dentist when he heard reports of his death today. The inner-nets sure circulate news quickly, even (or especially?) if it’s false. I’m glad to hear Mr. Lightfoot is OK. Reports of his demise were apparently a sad hoax. Perhaps the reports were created by the same losers who hacked into Van Morrison’s website not so long ago to plant a report that Van is a new daddy.

Nobody ever plants Mister Anchovy rumours. I deny everything….
