I too am deeply offended by the site. It is enough to be a stupid logger or miner, and have to read with one's finger, moving one's lips, but to be constantly reminded that we is a drawback to ancient civilizations really has my red and black wool shirt in a scratchy. My toque nearly fell off when I read that filthy piece of patronization. I should kick their fancy new yawk ass with one of my caulked boots. I nearly chopped the internet cable with my double bitted axe.

Walk Right In is a real tin pan alley song, written in 1938. Author dunno. Roof Top singers had it in 1963, I believe.

Whoops! Wrong again. 1910! and there is a version as early as 1909. And it is as it sounds, real blues. Willie Dixon. I like the Dixon version lyrically better, It has a more bluesy feel to it. All that Memphis Blues stuff made Bob Dylan's songbook, right down to Motopsycho nightmare.

"The sign reads "smallpox" on the door
but a welcome mat lies on the floor
So come right in, sit right down and
make yourself at home."

I don't know why Dylan never ripped that one off before.

Eric Anderson ripped-off the theme in Thirsty Boots. I will bet someone else did that one before too. I will bet ten thousand dollars if you search thirsty boots you will find an old blues song with that title or line in it.

You should maybe first know that the chap who did the new site layout claims that three of his grandfathers were among the bowmen at Agincourt, so he felt already in danger of not being served politely the next time he was in his favourite wrong-bank parisienne bordello, and since doing up the french is now sort of last week's thing down there, and in playing on the nekkid canehjun shorter legends, he chose us ... thing that got me, is he doesn't seem to have gotten right the colour scheme, the black letters on red are nothing whatever similar to the way we write with the yellow liquid in the snow ..... but we must make allowances for ignorance, i figure, and in any case if they get a bit much out of hand we can always cut off their supply of comedians

buddy When I moved to TO from Montréal it was culture shock one. Them I got to work with two chaps from Nova Scotia.
They were forever saying things like
'so buddy says'
'then buddy come in'
etc. etc..
The two guys only met in Toronto.

At first I thought they were talking about friends of theirs or coincidently some guy named Buddy and was really confused at times. It took me a while to realise I should replace 'buddy' with 'the guy' or 'le bonhomme'....
