In a answer to your quiz, the correct answer is CHAR! "The Grateful Dead have their loyal "Deadheads"and __CHAR_______ has his loyal "Footheads" Little did we know that CHAR is really a GUY!!!! LOL... Have a happy Canaday Day!!!!!! Wes |
Jimmy Buffett has his ParrotHeads - I am one, but it was a CANADA Day quiz - Jimmy's not Canadian! He hasn't been in TO in years. And the clue was "FOOT"!

LETTER TO EDITOR - TORONTO STAR:
re: "Canada Quiz" I would like to take this opportunity to inform your Quizmaster that Gordon Lightfoot fans are NOT called "Footheads". We refer to ourselves as "Lightheads" and none of us has ever heard the other name. A large contingent of internet "Lightheads" will be meeting in Toronto for the third annual Lightfoot convention when he is performing 4 concerts at Massey Hall in November. Fans from all over the U.S., Australia, Austria, England, Scotland and Canada get together and have the greatest time getting to know one another and listening to the many talented members sing and play Lightfoot music. May 2001 saw 70 fans congregate here and we are hoping for an even larger turnout this November. Lightfoot himself is aware that the "Net People" as he refers to us, are out there still loving him and his music and being very appreciative that he continues to tour across North America with his awesome band. He's a true musical legend and a Canadian icon who gives 100% every time he sets foot on stage. He is "The Man"! Char Westbrook Whitby |
Well said, Char!
and Happy Canada Day to you and THE Man! and all my Canadian fellow Lightheads. |
Happy Canada Day to one and all. 'Tis a great day for the Lightheads. (Maybe folks at the Toronto Star thought Lightheads were coal miners)

Todays Toronto Star has carried my letter and added a small pic of Gord today. It is not included in the on-line version of the Letter To the Editor tho.
