You couldn't care less about him. And yet you clicked on the "Gordon" thread on a message board, clicked "reply" on said thread, and followed by typing out the things you don't like about this kid. dlarry, BilliesBy40, jweste216 and 4 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 You clicked on a "Gordon" thread on a message board, clicked reply on said thread, and followed that by typing a personal attack on a poster that had absolutely nothing to do about the subject matter titled in the thread. What's your point? Kettle or pot? Love you guys that can't see the forest for the trees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnkielBreakers Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I clicked on a Gordon thread on a message board, clicked no reply, and typed no personal attack, and provided nothing substantive about the subject matter of the thread. Who am I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVBilliken Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Here's hoping the young man finds his way. Glad he is not a Billiken, but me, no ill will. Hoping he sees the light and does well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMM28 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I clicked on this thread assuming it was about Canada’s greatest singer songwriter Gordon Lightfoot. After scrolling through 12 pages of drivel about some former basketball player, I’m quite disappointed.

We visited the Upper Peninsula about 20 years ago and the Shipwreck Museum. For some reason the story of that particular shipwreck has always stuck with me.

For some reason the story of that particular shipwreck has always stuck with me. I was stationed in the UP in the early 80's. Grew up in Fla, Tex, and SoCal and my first USAF station was in the UP. Arrived March 31'st and it snowed every day for the 1st 30 days I was there. Hated the first year, fell in love after that Also a good Maritime Museum with the history of the Great Lakes in Sturgeon Bay, Door County Wisconsin Box didn't I see on Facebook you were just at Mackinac Island?

almaman Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 like to remind the Lightfootheads on here of Neil Young's Canadian heritage. Joni Mitchell also a Canuck. And the Mckensie Brothers of course. Leonard Cohen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufanskip Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Gordon Lightfoot has been mentioned or referenced in this thread more times than he has everywhere else in the world combined over the last 10 years. At least we got off track on a better subject than we have been. Reinert310 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your argument is Justin Bieber and the chick that wrote songs about Uncle Joey banging other chicks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
