That’s just my opinion, anyway, which could be totally skewed because you know, I’m so strong. <br /><br /><I>Of course</I> I know about the Acadians—many settled down in Louisiana. I LOVE Cajun music, especially when they parle en francais. (Je parle un peu.) I took French from 4th to 10th grade and again in college, presumably because we lived si a cote de Quebec. Of course, it would have been easier for me to find a job in the Southwest had I had so many years of Spanish.

I love all Canadians, and they have some of the best musicians ever up there (down here its quantity vs. quality).<br /><br />I am of Acadian descent and am very proud of my heritage.

My ex was from New Zealand and ALWAYS said “eh.” He even had a t-shirt that said, “EH? It’s better than saying HUH?”<br /><br />@ Di: Yeah, no kidding! Daniel Lanois was very nice, but maybe a little less time in the studio, a littl more time in the gym?<br /><br />@ Carol: Wow, you have a great memory! I did have a different name back then—Linda Blackwell. Certainly no disrespect intended; Rick was a great guy and your site is awesome.

I think I may even have a tape of it somewhere. Did you also write a preview for that show? There were so many interviews around that time, it's hard to remember them all.<br /><br />I'm also sorry that you put him in your "ghoul pool"--I was enjoying your post, until that part, and I do think he would have cared. He had a great personality and a great sense of humor, but I think it's kind of sad that you asked him for his autograph thinking he was going to die soon.<br /><br />Anyway, if you'd like to read about Rick's <I>life</I>, please check out www.sipthewine.blogspot.com. <br /><br />Thanks--<br />CarolCarol Caffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15237391685527637215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-20482137579934693262009-04-30T06:56:00.000-07:002009-04-30T06:56:00.000-07:00Um, ya... weak handshakes bother me.. they just fe...Um, ya... weak handshakes bother me.. they just feel soft or something... like a limp dick.
