Thanks, Dascha. He was a great singer/songwriter. I grew up in Michigan, which is sort of Canada-lite. 🤣 I listened to CKLW growing up, which was a Canadian radio station.
Gordon Lightfoot fan here, and you had me chuckling out loud!! Thank you, Mark. I, too, wonder if anyone reads my stuff. I join you in your angst, and your talent shines!
A Widely Held Theory? - It that’s not possible, it should be! Floating sounds fun.
If You Would Read My Poem - Critics shouldn’t act this way/ I just have to say, that they just don’t get it/ I don’t know where you went wrong/ But my prose is strong, and you just don’t get it man!
Sloths - I didn’t know sloths could speak Spanish. Thanks Jude!
Jude the Animal Expert Dude is probably my new favorite character ever! Also, I've never considered a theory quite like that, but now I can't stop considering it.
More great stuff, Mark! I especially loved the Gordon Lightfoot parody. (as a fellow Canuck, I grew up listening to his music.)

You've mentioned being Canadian-lite before. I appreciate your identification with those of us north of the border!
We are neighbors, eh? 🤓
Ya hoser!

I know! I want to float!
Excellent rhymes.
Jude is so informative.
I can always count on you to get a song stuck in my head. I love sloths!
Thanks, Cyn. At least it is a great song.
I can relate to the sloths. 😉

I am fond of Jude. He is so informative about animals!
I would test my theory, but I am too old to run that fast.
Thanks! 🤓
The Gordon Lightfoot riff is great. You did not wreck his Fitzgerald
Thanks, Jimmy. As a former Michigander, I hear you. 😉
Haha! I always enjoy hearing from Jude, the animal expert dude. Thanks for the laughs, Mark. 😄
I learn so much from Jude!
Thanks, Justin. 🤓
Hi Gail. Nice to have you reading.😀
Having Gordon Lightfoot singing in your head is not a bad way to mow the lawn.
Now I Will have Gordon crooning in my mind while I mow the lawn! :)
Hi Mark! It's Gail from Medium. Jack Herlocker was kind enough to share a link to your Substack with me. Happy to be among your readers here. :)
At the very least. There are so many. If he had only taken a little more time...
You remember the 70s. Rush, rush, rush... 🤣
"And really, who is any big hurry to eat leaves?"
This explains so much.
Happy Monday, Mark!
Thanks, Ferg. Jude is very observant. 🤣
You and Gordy have a thing, no question.
I don't think he is worried. But I will bet he wishes he had thought of the clambake part. 🤣
Aw! “If You Would Read My Poem” was sweet! 💚
Thanks, Jack. And thanks for reading! 🤓
Jude the Animal Dude? I like it :)
Thanks, Betsy. I like Jude also. 🤓
